CARD FROM HEARD ON

EXPLAINS THE PROPOSITION
Tells Why !. i necessary 10
Have Money Available as Soon
as Road u Completed From
Columbus 10 Aberdeen

The Commercial publishes with
pleasure the following card from
Mr. 6. +. Heard. president of
the Memphis. Columbus and Gulf

explains fully why il is necessary
to have the $50. 900 in bonds
voted by Columbus available as
soon as the road is completed
from Aberdeen to this city:
TO The CITIZENS OF COLUMBUS.
MISSISSIPPI;
My attention has been called
to an objection of some Of the
voters of Columbus. Mississippi,
to the proposed bond issue Of
$50, 10000 for the right of way
and depot grounds for the Mem
phis, Columbus and Gulf Rail-
road Company being available to
the railroad when the railroad
has been constructed from CO.
lumbus to Aberdeen; their idea
being that the bond issue should
not be available until the road
has been constructed from 0kolo-
no, Miss, to Aliceville, Ala.
1T is the intention of this
company, and they have so per-
fected their plans, to construct
this railroad from 0kolona, Miss,
to Alieeville. Ala, and probably
further. 0kolona has voted
bonds to be available when the
road is completed to Aberdeen;
Aberdeen has voted bonds to be
available when the road has
been constructed from Aberdeen
to Columbus; Pickensville has
agreed to donate money wher
the line is constructed from Co.
lumbus TO Pickensville; and Alice
vile has agreed to make a do.
nation when the road is builC
from Pickensville to Alieeville
so we now ask Columbus to vote
bonds available when the road i;
constructed from Aberdeen to
Columbus.
In order to get into Columbus
Aberdeen or 0kolona the righ
of way and depot grounds would
have to be available. 1t il
necessary to get into these towns
while the work is progressing il
order to get rails, ties and other
construction material shipped
over some other road. so will ouI
an entrance into some town th'
work could not be done and tht
road could not be built; and !
bonds were voted to be availabl
when the road was constructe,
from 0kolona to Aliceville n
terminal facilities could be legal,
given until the road was finished
between the above points. |
has never been the intention 0
purpose Of the Memphis, Colum
bus and Gulf Railroad to be bull
between Columbus and Aberdee
only, but to build from 0kolon
to Aliceyille as planned an
agreed between the railroad an
all towns between 0kolona an
Aliceyille.
