NEW RAILROAD ORGANIZES
DAWSON MAN VICE-PRESIDENT
OF SOUTHWESTERN a GULF.

Survey Has Been Made from This
City to St. Andrews Bay, Fla. Cap
itaI Stock Has Been Subscribed
The projectors have organized the
Southwestern and Gulf Railroad Com
pany mot the Albany, ST. Andrews
and Gulf Railway, as the papers
printed it).
The stockholders met in Albany for
that purpose Thursday, and Mr.. j. r.
Mercer of Dawson was one of the
prominent capitalists present.
The Stock All Subscribed.
Announcement was made that the
full capital stock of the company,
$4,000 had been subscribed, and
every share was represented at the
meeting of stockholders.
The following board of directors was
elected: w. M. Legg, H. j. Bruton,
I. S. Halves, A. H. Russell and r. H.
Lytle, of cambridge: S. D. Cherry
aid I. j. Shingler, of Donaldson
vile; J. r. Mercer, of Dawson, and
w. A. Milton, of Mariana, Fla.
The directors met Immediately after
the adjournment of the stockholders,
and elected the following officers:
President and General Manager
W, M. Legg.
Vice-President-J. r. Mercer.
Secretary and Treasurer--H. j. Bru
ton.
General Counsel-Russell q Halves.
To Begin Work at an Early Date.
Members of the board of directors
of the company stated after the meet
ing that no time would be lost in be-
ginning the work of actually con-
structing the line. A few details are
to be arranged, but the plans of the
company are in excellent shape for
carrying forward the work without
any considerable delay.
The Southwestern and Gulf will have
two southern termini, one at Balm
bridge, and the other at ST. Andwrews
Bay, on the Gulf coast.
The northern terminus will be eth
er at Dawson or Albany, and it is
thought by some that there will be a
sharp contest between these two towns
for the road.
Mr.. Mercer, however, who, by rea-
son of being a high official of the road,
is in position to know thing or
two, tells The News that he hasn't
much doubt that the road will be
built to Dawson.
A survey from Dawson has been
made to the Gulf, and is the only one
that has been made.
The information has been given out
that more than fifty miles of the right
of way of the company has been secur-
ed. Options cover all points where
even the smallest difficulty in secur-
ing right of-way concessions was an
ticipated, and the rest of the work OF
securing a route will be plain sailing.
The work of actual construction, 1t
is said, will be begun in a very short
while.

Editor of The News: The article
j. this weeks News from Temper
anceo and ]. R. Mercer deserve just
little notice, lest the ignorant be
misled by them.
Let me say, in the beginning, that
most heartily endorse the proposed
local taxation for schools, and would
gladly endorse an effort to get the
District Agricultural College in Daw-

school for boys and young men be n
Gated in town the size of Dawson
when the sale of liquor is legalized
As to the dispensary, both articles
might have been written by the same
person, as the purport OF both is the
same. The identity of Temperance"
~ is unknown, though, if | mistake
not, he is, like Mr.. Mercer, my per-
sOnal friend.
When a great moral issue is before
the people, and any one takes the po-
stion which is antagonistic to the
Revealed Word of God, to His church,
and therefore, to the moral welfare of
His people, know no man after the
fesh,' even though he be my nearest
personal friend. That the sale Of in
toxcating liquor is contrary to the
teachings of the Scripture, no sane
man will deny. Every conference and
convention of the Christian church, by
resolution or law, puts its cOndemna-
ton upon the SALE The Methodist
church, to which Mr.. Mercer belongs,
makes even the man who signs a pc
tition for the sole of intoxicating
liquors guilty Of immortality.
The sale Of intoxicating liquor, as. a
beverage, whether by a person in
saloon, or by a county in a dispen-
sary, as a business, is disreputable,
dishonest and inhuman. Should you
drive into Dawson any distance from
cut in the country late Saturday after
moons, as l have done, and witness
the miserable and wretched condition
Of many men, and sometimes women,
you would be compelled to say it is
diSreputable.
That which does not give value re-
ceiyed, or incapacitates one for trans
action of business, or deprives inno-
cent women and children of the neces-
sites of life, is dishonest.
Is it inhuman? Hear the means and
walls of broken-hearted women and
hungry, starving children, resulting
from the intoxicants sold by the dis
pensary, and tell me, is it human?
Yet this is the business that Mr..
Temperance" CD and Mr.. Mercer
wish to perpetuate upon the poor wo-
men and children who can have no
voice in the matter, and the weak
creature who beg us to help to de-
liver them.
OF course, they have not thought
OF it in this light, but facts are stub
born things" and these are facts
They both have a reason, and they
both have the same What is 1t?
