Western & Atlantic Railroad.
The leasing of the Western & At
lantic Railroad is the most vital and
important question with which the
next general assembly will have to
deal.
This road and its terminals are
now being leased for $35,OO1OO Il
month; in my opinion, if proper
business judgement is used and the
general assembly is composed of
fearless, fair, and impartial men
with a determination to look after
the best interest of the people of
the state in dealing with this ques-
ton, this road and it's terminals
could be leased for a much larger
sum than it is now being leased for.
H., The Terminals.
=: At the terminal in Chattanooga
the state owns a large amount Of
central property which is included
IN the present lease of the road that
is not used for railroad purposes. |
am in favor of leasing this property
for a long term of years separate
from the railroad property proper.
