Thinks That He Will Yet be Able to (let the A. tY N. C. Road. Regarding the proposed sale of rim Atlantic and North Carolina Railroad. Mr. Edwards said: “I feel very much gratified at the progress made i.i the matter considering the very short length of time 1 have had to bring the mutter before the people. My chief obstacle has been insufficient time for the m-o pie living along the line of the r -id to have proper knowledge of the rin cerity of the proposition; when this is done I fori confident that a great nut jority of the best people of that seer ion will heartily embrace the oporto lity they now have of taking this mad out Os polities and having it developed and extended." Do you believe that politicians will la- willing for the road to go mt of polities? "1 am decidedly of the opin ion that the good people of that section will, upon due reflection, view this mat ter from higher and purere motives. To take this road and develop and extend it, giving it a capable stable manage ment cannot fail to prove* n great bless ing to the whole section of that part of tlie State. it would mean giving them three or four trains per day where they now have one; and cheaper rates, inasmuch as the Railroad Commission now allows that roa’d to charge more than the sum-l ard tariff; therefore requiring the peo ple living along the line of that ,*o i 1 to pay more freight than they would to a private company. Moreover it would mean many more good positions and latter pay to their people than s'hey are now able to. get from the road as it now stands.” Do you still hope to get the road finally? "1 do; I feel almost certain that I will. When 1 satisfy them, as I feel sure that I can, upon the three vital points, viz: that it will lie extended; that the private stock will la- protected, and that it and its extension will be kept an independent lint* the State, I am sure will not entertain a proposition without tie sc conditions." How about your price? ‘‘Well. 1 feel that, if these conditions are complied with the price is full fair value for the Slate's interest. These conditions mean a great deal. Besides the opposition that has appeared at every Committee meeting has admitted that twenty-five dollars per share was the highest that they had known the stock to sill for at normal times; and often at a price not over $20.00: besides practically ad mitting the bad physical condition of the property and that the dividends p ;l j,] wen- not warranted." How is ii that they claim the re ceipts art increasing? "This they fail to show, inasmuch as Captain Dill, the general superintendent, admitted to tin eommittoe that during tiie past eight years the receipts of iln- former font years w re greater than the latter four, and only one year in the latter four years equalled either .if the four pre vious years; showing an actual decrease in the business for this period of some thing over *27,000. Such is State man agement of railroads." What connection do your people con template? “None except our westwardl.v extension and boat connect ion at New hern and Mon-head City: arrangements having already been made for these boat connections. This will result in a great volume of freight, consisting of lumber, cotton, coal, brown stone, etc., passing through these ports.” What about the advisability of the State’s soiling? "It is clearly the duty of the State to sell upon conditions named. It was unqu stionably the de sign and intention of the charier and iis founders to sell and extend the road, as the charter expressly implies this." 1 understand you have applied to the Legislature. for a chartir I'ot- your ex tension from Goldsboro west through the counties named. Do you intend to Imild this road? “Not, unless we can get the Atlantic and North Carolina Railroad. We are making every arrange ment as we feel th- Slate will sell us the road after the people have given the matter due consideration." A CARD. To the Editor: The comparative cost of the I’nblie Printing -as pub lish; d in another paper on Feb ruary 2Mh, is greatly misleading, for the reason that the plain composi tion is put down 5l» per cent more than the correct amo.unt; the rule and figure work at more than 70 per cent, more than there is, while ih press work is given iit 75 per cent above what there is. So, that in the comparison of the Capital Printing Co., hid with the law as passed by the Legislature, there is only a difference of ahont $2,732.(5:5. And on marly .-ill of the work included in the statement the Capital l’ri iliug Co., admitted to the committee THAT THEY WOFLD LOSE MONEY: BI T THAT THEY EXPECTED TO MAKE UP THE LOSS FPON WORK ON WHICH THE LAW DID NOT FIX ANY PRICK. The gentlemen of the Committee on Public Printing who framed the bill did not frame it for any such padding as this. The prices named in the bill are as cheap as good work can he done, and cheaper than those of any Southern State.anil the com mittee enquired fully on this point. As a proof that the bid of the Capital Printing Co., was not based mi business principles, they declined t«» take that part of the work upon which they speci fied prices, claiming that they would lose thereby, and insisted upon the committee awarding them all the prim ing, after admitting that they expected to make up their losses on work upon which titer.- is no price fixed. < >r. as expressed by a member of the commit tee. "they propose t<> sell the Stale a 82.q0 hat for $1.30. and charge $20.0!) for a $10.03 overcoat." It appears to me,” said the Senator, “that the State will he out $3.00 on that transaction." We did not put in a bid for the work, bur asked for the contract at the prices named in the bill, knowing, as wo well do. that those prices arc as low as any house can afford to offer and honestly, faithfully and promptly do th work. And we do not want llie work unless we can do lb'- same with equal justice to the State and to our workmen. In other words, if we cannot take the contract and deal just as squarely and honestly with the Stale as wo have al ways done with private customers, wi de not want it at ail. EDWARDS A BROUGHTON.
