The started from there Monday are now their way to The graders will them, followed in turn by the track lay- from Snow Hill. The distance from Snow Hill lo Fremont is miles; from to Raleigh is miles, in all to be built. If you will look at your map you will find that a straight rule laid down it from Raleigh to Hill will pass through the towns of Archer, Lodge, Eureka Bull Head. will also that road passes -through most fertile parts of three counties. Hut why does this road go to Snow that to be a terminus t at all. Its stop there will be temporary, if indeed it stops at all after its completion to Raleigh. Take your map again. Trace a direct line from Hill to Greenville; thence down Tar River to Washington, from there to on the Norfolk and South- Railroad, at the bead of Sound, thence through Hyde south of Lake, to There you strike deep water a harbor. The connection with the Norfolk is the main point for the owners of that line are the builders of the new road. The System own the Nor- folk and Southern it is the System that is build- the new road. plan was at to extend the Norfolk Southern from to New by way of Washington, a distance of miles At New Bern connection was to be made with the Wilmington New Railroad, a branch of the Atlantic Coast which is eighty-eight miles long. Thence the line was to to Georgetown, S. a distance of twenty-live miles. From Georgetown an extension was to lie run to Columbia and branch to Charleston. This was not a proposition, but it is the first time the System has been connected building of a line from Norfolk to Columbia. About six years ago some Philadelphia par- ties obtained a charter for such a line. The line or parts of it, surveyed and some money was spent in the venture, but it never amounted to anything. Now it has fulled again, partial- account of marshy nature of the county through which I proposed was to run, and expense of bridging the many courses. Also It was found that by connecting with Coast at Fremont the and Seaboard at its new road would have a more I ban equal show for the business passing over these lines and seeking a deep water Besides the in- is now the Hgt of a great Umber industry and part of it is a tine fanning ion. It can lie seen a this line is lull of promise possibility for Raleigh. it makes connection with the Norfolk Southern another direct line to the North and East will have at Norfolk connection will lie made with Philadelphia York, via the New York. Philadelphia and Norfolk. The competitors of the System in Bast North Caro- fully realize importance of this deal, and they are hastening with all possible speed with branch Snow Hill, that they may divert eastern to their reads. The Line's branch road, which is being built by Henry Clark Bridged from to Hill, is about one third com- work on it is being rushed with all possible speed. At the last meeting the tors of the and North Carolina a vote was taken in favor of building a branch from to Snow Hill. Roth private interest, except the Tucker stock, voted for proposition and the route has Snow Hill seems therefore destined, in the near future, to be- come a great railroad and Raleigh is to have a third great competing system. the future seems lo have great things in store for News Observer.
