to extend the tracks of the road from

way give Atlanta direct open way to

road, the promoters promise Atlanta
many things. They promise a direct
tidewater connection with Atlanta.
They promise one-third less freight
rates for Atlanta through old territory
and one-third less freight rates for an
outlet to the sea. They promise the
development of much fertile territory
