THE soU'rHERN RAILROAD.

Tomorrow will mark a great day In
the history of Norfolk. 1t will record
an event that prophesies n future of
u%nequalled growth and development,
such as will put our city in the front
ranks of commercial greatness. 1t is
the incoming OF the great Southern
Railway, an event that gives just
cause for rejoicing for the reason that
tho railway mileage tributary to our
hnbor Will be more than doubled.
This fact makes the year 1896 u notable
be more than doubled, our facilities for
shipping by land and sen will be second
to none in the MOI New steamboat
and steamship lines will be added to
our already large fleet. Foreign com
merce will be noated to us as never
before in our history: our population,
already reaching out far beyond cor
porate boundaries, will extend with two
fold rapidity; lots tina now are vacant
will soon be utilized for homes and
business sites; wholesale and retail es-
adjustments will find here Il most IA
rorablc location: thrift and enterprise
will be let oose and strangers will
flock to our gates TO enjoy the ad-
vantages which are offered.
Pinner's Point has for some weeks
been a hive of industry. Nearly half n
million dollars has already been ex-
pended on docks and track improve
mcnts. More than fifty miles of side
track will be required for the two great
railways terminating ut that point.
The immediate result OF his move is
the need of houses TO accommodate an
additional 1000 population. 200 families
wanting homes.
Now let the annexation Of Berkeley be
speedily accomplished and the census
for Norfolk in the year 1900 will reach
the loo, 900 mark. The greatness of the
city is an assured fact. but this growth
can be either accelerated or retarded by
individual effort. Having faith in our
possibilities. let us cndeavor to attain n
success that will be our glory as well
as our reward. Every dollar added to
property values as well as every addi-
tional dollar put in circulation will
benefit every citizen of whatever rank
or occupation. Learn a lesson from At
lanta, in being loyal to the interests
of your city and section. 1t pays. 1t
will make Norfolk the metropolis OF he
South. If not of the nation. Ii will
bring thrift to every trade and calling.
1t will give the laborer meat three times
a day, and add to the bank account of
the merchant and manufacturer. No
one car now block Il progress. but
every one possessed OF the gift OF speech
can help or hinder 1t. Unity OF purpose
and effort can cover the map of this
harbor with buildings In less than ten
years. Let all exercise 1t!
