Atlanta Growth and Tax Reform Spar in Georgian Commentary
The Athens Georgian urges steeply reduced Fulton county taxes to spur prosperity across Georgia. It argues for broader tax relief, cites Fulton’s low rate, and calls on grand juries to investigate taxation and cost-cutting. The Savannah News critiques gubernatorial races as cock-fighting and warns editors against personal rivalries. The piece also notes iron ore profits near Chattanooga and asserts Atlanta will push North and South railroad progress, with Columbus backing a Greenville convention for an Atlanta extension.
