lars have been invested which, in addi- ton to the amounts actually paid to the company for capital stock, is large iy in excess of the present capital stock
 "The Governor refers to the fact that the value of the first, second ana third debenture bonds of the Central of Georgia Railway has largely in- creased, and that the amounts that have been paid as interest on such de- hehtures should have gone to improve the road; and as additional capital has been borrowed the payment of the in- terest on the debentures has amounted to borrowing money to pay dividends.
 Georxin Central Finances.
 "The gross errors in this statement must be apparent to all citizens Of Georgia who have given the subject consideration. It is known of all that at one time the Georgia Central ftail- : road was a prosperous corporation; that by reason of the reduced rates en- forced by the State of Georgia ana other causes. it became bankrupt; that the late H. M. Conner was receiver during reorganization. and until his de- cease. president of the reorganized company; that in the reorganization, holders of first liens of the old corpor- ation were given first lien security by the new company, which became hxed charge upon the property.
 "In other words. if for any reason the new company failed to pay inter est and principal as the obligations ma tured, the property would be sold.
 "The wonderful and unanticipated In crease in the growth of traffic of-the country during the past ten years resulting from urexam9led prosperity without a corresponding increase Tn railway transportatior facilities, has.
 r. la in. crease In the gross and net earn ings of the Central of Georgia Rail- way, which, under the terms of the de- benture bond mortgages, permitted and required the management to pay inter- est on the first debentures; and be- lieve something has been paid on the second debentures.
 And yet, Governor Conner charges that under the management of the late H. M. Conner, and under that of Col. J. F. Hanson, in carrying out the pol icy inaugurated by or with the ap- proval of his predecessor, in accord ance with present day methods Of high finaance' interest has been paid on a portion of the debenture bonds in accordance with the terms Of the mortgage contract and asserts that the management should have violated it's contract and appropriated the money it was under contract to pay to the holders of the debenture bonds, to pay cost of additions to the property; and that, falling to do so, the manage ment has been borrowing money to pay dividends And this notwithstand- ing the fact that large part of the capital originally invested, which re- suited in the issue of these debenture bonds, has been lost. The fact that Mir. H. M. Conner and his associatee parties to the reorganization of the bankrupt Georgia Central Railroad, recognized (which it may be conceded they were compelled to dol the claims of certain creditors at the time deemed of little or no value, and that after many years some return has been made, is de- scribed by him as a 'vivication of life less stuff.'
