The comet. (Johnson City, Tenn.) 1884-1916, 1902-03-27

from the ginia-Tennessee coal field,
to exploit which is one of the prime OBJ
lecta in view, ii is confidently believed
that by bringing the coal of Virginia
to the rich iron deposits located in
Mitchell county, N. g., through which
the line runs, a tremendous iron and
steel industry will develop about John
son City, which in turn may easily be-
come another iron centre. Thus it is
expected that, the new road will devel-
op big coal business to tidewater at
Wilmington, N. c., over the Seaboard
Air Line, and in addition heavy local
coal and iron traffic.
The old "Three C's" plan was to con-
tinue the line north through the Breaks
down the valley of the Big Sandy to
the Ohio river, and thence to Cincinna-
ii. 1t is believed that this further ex-
tension of the proposed new line will
be made to provide an outlet to the
west for the coal aud especially the
steel manufactures which will originate
on the system, Philadelphia North
American, March 81, 1909.

RAILROAD NEWS And NOTES.
Items OF Interest to Our People Concern
ing Various Lines, Including
the 0. r. & C.

Below will be found several items in
regard to railroad matters in this sec
ton. The articles were clipped from
eastern papers published in railway
and financial centres, and are appar-
emily trustworthy and credible. Now
that our city and section has taken on
new life, we will carefully watch for
and publish whatever seemingly relia-
BILE news we can acquire regarding the
completion of old or the building Of
new lines. The following is published
for the benefit of our readers-they
may draw their own conclusions;
A special dispatch from Philadelphia
to the Manufacturers Record says that
the syndicate for the purchase of the
extensive coal lands in the southwest
ern part Of Virginia, and also for the
purchase of the Ohio River & Charles
ton railroad, has been largely oversub-
scribed. The Union Trust Co. Of Bal
timore is also prominent in this syndi-
cate. The Ohio River h Charleston
and the Southwestern Virginia rail
roads ere to be extended and connected.
The comet. (Johnson City, Tenn.) 1884-1916, 1902-03-27
Bryan and Cleveland.

The letter recently written by Mr..
Cleveland to q Mississippi editor forms
the text for the leading editorial article
in the Commoner of this week. In
this letter Mr.. Cleveland made the
prophecy that "the time is fast APP
preaching when our grand old party
will shake off the dreadful dreams
which have afflicted it and fight again,
as of old, the glorious battles of pure
democracy"
This augury Of the political future
had disturbing effect on the barn
dweller of Nebraska, and he replies in
a spiteful tone, making an imputation
on the ex-preSident's personal interity.
The Commoner says: "The venerable
ex-president fears that some of his
countrymen have been looking at him
through "a glass darkly, and he is hap
Ply in the belief that they are beginning
to discern . halo where once saw only
a financial ring"
There is less reason to believe that
Mr.. Cleveland yielded to corrupt infiu-
ences in Office, or that he was unduly
biased in any respect by financial con-
sidsrations, than there is to believe
that Mr.. Bryan was in the pay Of the
Colorado silver mine owners when he

Chattanooga, Tenn. Especial. 1T is
rumored that official announcement will
soon be made of the purchase of the
South Carolina and Georgia extension
railroad by Southern Railway. The
road runs from Camden, S. c., to Ma
rion, N. c., a distance Of 1876 miles. II
was built as Q part of what was known
as the Three C's that was to form O
connecting link between Charleston
and Cincinnati, 1t is understood that
Southern secures the road as o part Of
the through line between Charleston
and Chattanooga by way of Asheville,
and that vestibuled trains will be put
on in the near future. Wall Street

'The Passing of the Country Editor"
Our contemporary was never more mis-
taken in its life than when it says the
country editor is passing; he's just get
ting we'll into the business. Take
few of the country papers thai come to
this office; for instance, the Greeneville
Democrat, the Morristown Gazette, the
johnson City COMET, the Rogersville
Star, the Athens Post and Athenian,
the Cleveland Journal, Banner and
Herald, the Sevierville Vindicater, the
Jasper Statesman d Democrat, Hartman
Record, South Pittsburg Hustler, Shell
byville Gazette, Murfreesboro Press
and News, the Gallatin Tennessean and
Examiner, Franklin Review, and many
others further west in the state-what's
the matter with these papers being here
to stay? Every one of those mentioned
has an editor with opinions of his own,
and he expresses them in good sterling
American language. No, sir, the coun-
try press is not passing, and it would
be bad day il it were. No influence
is more potent for good than these
weekly publications. They may be
wrong sometimes often are-but they
generally round up on the side of his
tory, fair play of man to man, morality
and the general good. They exert an
infuencethe city dailies and weeklies
can never have. They reach the homes
OF people who read little else, and they
more nerly reflect the intelligence and
public spirit of the community in which
they exist than any other institution.
We do not mean to say that these
country wetklieS are what they should
be; but they are all it is possible, prob
ably, for them to be. We have observ-
ed that large majority of our country
friends display q willingness beyond
their means to give their readers a
readable journal, while it must be ad-
mitted that there are others that would
be better not printed. These latter
usually drop out and the tittest gener-
ally survive.
Let us hope that the day will not
come that the country weekly will pass,
but increase their influence and add to
their small stock of prosperity in pro-
portion as the country increases in
wealth and material development.
These editors, most of them, have q
tough time making ends meet, and it is
a credit to their hopeful courage and
manful endurance that they persist in
the face of all sorts of obstacles in do
ing good for their towns, encouraging
thrift among their patrons and always
pointing to good things just ahead.
Here's to the country editor; long may
he live and prosper! - Chattanooga
Times.

There promises to be something en-

Morristown Gazette and the Sweet

temperance plank into the democratic

A gentleman called at THE COMET Of
fee last week and asked to see a copy
of the Hardeman Free Press, stating
that he was from Bolivar. We suspect
ed that he had escaped from the insane
asylum there and had the "devil' en-
terrain him while we wired Bolivar to
see il our suspicious were correct. To
our surprise he was the only subscriber
the Free Press had and he had left
town rather than commit suicide.
