B. & B. WILL BUILD ON LOWER ROUTE.
This Was Meeting of Officials of the Road
Few DAYS Ago Almost Direct Line
of Route Selected
If the route spoken Of in the above

If the route spoken OF in the above
dispatch has been adopted, and il
seems practically certain that it has,
the road can be brought through Daw-
son easily by little effort on the part of
the enterprising citizens of this city.
1t seems certain that the B. Il B..
will go to Eufaula. Dawson is on an
almost direct line from Offerman to
Eufaula, and to come through this city
would seem to be the most practical
route for the road to take. 1t has al.
ways been conceded that Dawson
would be one of the objective points of
the road If the lower route was adopt
ed in preference to the upper route.
However, thing which is often cas-
lily within our grasp can escape us if
we are not on the alert, and it is hoped
the committee which has charge of
the promotion of Dawson's interests in
connection with the Brunswick and
Birmingham will leave no stone un-
turned. 1t also behooyes every public
spirited citizen to lend this committee
his active support.
Dawson must have the B. & 3. The
road will open up comparatively new
country on both sides of this city and
increase our territory and make Daw-
son grow more rapidly.
Put your shoulder to the wheel and
all push together.
