a MILITARY ROAD TO ANDERSON
Matter VIII Agsiu BE Put Before Con.
Gregs.

Far some time past, IS is we'll known,
movement has been made looking to
an appropriation from Congress for the
construction of q military road con-
Meeting Americus with the National
Cemetery at AndersonvilIe, L miles
away.
It is an end greatly desired by citi-
zens of Americas and Sumter county
and by Union veterans as well, many
of whom have already lent very vaIua.
BILE assistance IN Washington.
And it is an end that sooner or later
will be accomplished.
A member of the Pennsylvania party
now in the city, in discussing the sub
ject yesterday, stated that the only
obstacle in the way of securing the aps
preparation, and one that might easily
be removed, would be the deciding by
the state of the proposed road to the
Government.
As the case now stands, the Govern
ment would not appropriate money
for the improvement of private proper
ty, but with transfer of the title made
the end could be accomplished.
Congressman E. B. Lewis, the gem
tleman stated. had carried the matter
before the committee on military af-
fairs, urging the necessary appropri-
alton, but for the reason stated the
committee cannot report fayorably I'M
til the State of Georgia acts
Mr.. Lewis has the hearty support
of prominent G.. A. r. men but, ac-
cording to the statement of the gentle
man quoted herein, the strip of land
for the roadway must first be decided
by the state to the Government when,
he thinks, the appropriation will be
given.
"A smooth, macsdemized roadway to
Andersonville Cemetery is an end
greatly desired and in time will be
constructed.

Mr. Harrell, formerly prominent

Jail since his arrest on the day after
the town of Preston was laid in ashes
by the incendiary' torch. This ives

Harreli, for the same offense.
Quite recently the supreme court
sustained the decision of the lower
court in Herrell's case, al he knew
the dread alternative. Yesterday, when
told that he must go to the pep, he be-
