PROSPECTIVE RAILROAD
In a Region of Iron and Marble Near
DahlOnega.

DAHLoNEGA, GA, Jan. 19.-This place
has long needed railroad, and all efforts
to secure one have so far failed. The Gaines
vile and Dahlonega railroad was forced to
90 into the hands of receiver, where it
will likely stay for some time. Our pc ople,
however, are not without hopes of a rail-
road from an unexpected quarter. The
marble and iron interests of Pickens, Daw-
son and Lumpkin counties will force a road
from Tate, on the Marietta and North
Georgia railroad, to Lula junction,
by the way of Jacksonville and Dab
lonega, with a view of getting an
outlet to southern port The marble
quarries require greater facilities for trans
portation than they now possess.
1t is likely that the iron ore will go west
ward to Chattanooga. At Lula the freight
| will go to Athens. thence to Port Royal.
This line will give this section all the rail-
road facilities needed. 1t will be a few
miles farther TO Atlanta, but to all points
east and west it is as good route as can be
] desired. This road will be independent of
| the Richmond and Danville railroad, which
corporation has long had monopoly of the
business Of this section. But that road is not
| as popular with our people as it ought
to be, or might have been. It's neglect TO
| foster tue business by aiding the Gaines
| vile and Dahlonega railroad, after agreeing
to do so, has caused it to be an easy matter
to wean our people away from that hith-
erto popular highway. Our Savannah
friends could easily, over the proposed
route, reach Dahlonega tae same day they
leave their homes. AS many persons in
Savannah and Augusta already own lands in
Dahlonega and vicinity, they may be able
soon to improve these places and enjoy theil
summers IN our lovely mountain section.
