II Is Projected for the Rich sa-
vannah Valley.
Lincolnton, Ca, June 6, 19O3-Editor
Morning News: That the fertile ter
ritory in the Savannah river valley
should have better railway facilities
there is not the slightest doubt in the
minds of those who have given this
important matter the earnest thought
il deserves. We of this section have
repeatedly petitioned Augusta and the
railroads near by to give us the much
desired facilities; but so far we have
been ignored. So we now turn to Sa-
vannah with the hope and belief we
will have better success. Savannah
and Augusta were che old time and
natural markets for all the rich terri
tory in the Savannah Valley, but in
recent years this trade has been large
ly diverted in other directions. simply
for the lack of proper railway facili-
ties
Perhaps few people in your beautiful
and hospitable city have ever thought
about 144 miles of railway track that
Savannah would have new. nearer and
more desirable connections with Syl-
vania, Waynesboro, Augusta, Thorn
son, Washington, Lincolnton, Danburg,
Elberton, Athens and Atlanta than she
new enjoys.
From Clyo, bingham county, a
station on the Seaboard Air Line Rail-
way, thirty-two miles from Savannah;

The area embraced in a width of four
