NEW RAILROAD FOR CHEROKEE.

A crowd of surveyors we're here this
week en- route to points on the line of
railroad recently surveyed from Mari
eta to Talking Rock. They come back
now, we are told, to locate the line
preparatory for the work of grading
soon to begin. This line is to be a part
of the A. K. & N. system and will start
out from Marietta, bearing to the left
of the present line and intersecting
the A. K. & N, at or near Talking
Rock, going out by Col. M. H. Fields,
then via Walesca to Talking Rock.
This route, it is claimed, will shorten
the distance between Marietta and
Talking Rock ten miles or more and
can be more cheaply built than to
make necessary changes In the grades
and curves of the present line.
The old road, however, will be kept
up, and the new line used for road s
through business. Nevertheless the
building of this line will give Cherokee
another road and put our county on a
great trunk line reaching from the
coast to the business centers of the
north and northwest.-Canton Advance
