THE WORLD MOVES.
ROME, GA. Feb. %, 1891.

ROME, GA, Feb. ., 1891.
DEAR JoURNAL-The sight of the
dear old papers face, which came
to MY Preside yesterday, so impress
ed me with pleasant memories and
aroused the love of home in my
heart, that cannot resist the i'm
pulse of talking a little to the peo-
pie of progressive old Cobb county,
and begging the voters to turn out
in force upon the day which is to be
in the interest of public or free
schools and decide the matter on
the pro side. The world moves and
we must move with it, and this is in
the right direction. We have
great many privileges and blessings
in our county, of which we ought to
be proud-many good, pious, large
hearted citizens; fine climate, great
natural resources and an Industrious
people let US add to these all the
brain power we can, and in the
years to be, it will tell most favora-
bly,. Rome has her public schools,
and we hope the system may be ex-
tended all over Floyd county.
| will now give you an extract
from private letter received from
Central, Kangas: 1.-The depo.it OF
rocksalt exteues nearly through the
State from north to south, and a
hundred miles in width ; it is $50
feet thick and lies from six to eight
hundred feet beneath the surface.
The borings prove the existence of
coal deposits beneath the immense
bed of salt, but what is below chat
we have not yet found out. This is
a queer old world Of ours, and we
may fad out more about it after we
''shuffle off this mortal COLL" and
become wiser in the spirit life."
Am glad to see the Smyrna dots
so well improved and presented to
the readers OF the Journal, and
here send fraternal greeting to
I'll. T. F. JEFFRIEs.

When one reads of a dinner given
week before last in New York that
cost $4,000, of favors in a cotillon
that cost forty or fifty dollars each,
of a bouquet of orchids carried that
cost one hundred and fifty dollars,
it requires faith in God and man to
wait patiently tor the solving of that
mystery we call lite. More spent in
five hours pleasure than would keep
one hundred and forty children out
of the streets for one year, and train
them as useful members of juven.
lie community The pleasure OF a
limited few to cost more than would
care for fifty babies in day nurs>

IMPROVING THE ROAD.

President Thomas, of the Nash.
Vile, Chattanooga and st. Louis
road is quoted as saying that within
the next eighteen months 100000
will be spent in improving the Wes-
tern and Atlantic road He further
says: "There are forty,fve bridges
between Chattanooga and Atlanta,
and every one of them to be rebuilt
from wood to iron. On the Nash
Vile road we have bridges, includ-
ing the one over Chattanooga creek,
which have been built three times
since the war; those on the Western
and Atlantic road are the same as
they have always been. The road
is now being laid with seventy-pound
steel rails. and new stations are to
be erected along the line. Survey
ors are now making a profile for a
map of the road for the purpose of
ascertaining the grades. When all
these are completed we shall put on
heavy engines like those on the
Nashville and Chattanooga road,
and in the present year the time be-
tween Atlanta and Chattanooga will
easily be reduced to four hours and
fifteen minutes"
