DECATUR TO GET
 A NEW RAILROAD
Engineers Will Arrive In a Few Days to Lay Out the
 Line.

Decatur. May 17.-(Special)-A few weeks ago there appeared story in the daily press to the effect that Lon don and eastern capitalists were igur- ing on building a railroad from Decatur to Sheffield and with another line run ming from Moulton In Lawrence county. Ala, to Mobile, and a branch extending from Clear Creek falls in Winston coun- ty to Birmingham.
 1t is now learned that civil engineers from the east will be here within q few days for the purpose of making a survey of the road. It is understood that the engineers will first make a trip on horseback over the line for the purpose of getting a general idea of the lay of the country and that they will then com mence the preliminary survey.
 Maps of the proposed road have been drawn, but no survey has ever been made. The road will run through a fine mineral district and the packers of the road II is learned, own considerable min eral lands in the western part of Ala bama and that 1t Is mainly to develop these lands that they propose to build the road.

To the Editor of the AgeHerald
 I notice in your issue of the 16th inst that MT F. R. Jennings in all proloa bility will be reappointed postmaster of New Decatur, Ala. Your correspondent says that Mir. Jennings has the endorsement of the Presidents referees and republican state organization and a greater part of the business men of New Decatur The last statement does MT. Claude Mc- Milan an injustice.
 To my certain knowledge he (Mr. Mo- Millan), has the hearty endorsement of large majority of the representative business and professional men of the town and the best wishes of many of the leading republicans (myself being one) And, last but not least the faith full endorsement of Congressman William Richardson.
 You can rest assured as to Mir. Me Milan having an excellent following.
