DISCRIMINATION IN FRbiuHrs.

The merchants and business men Of
Anderson flnd the discrimination in
frcighta between the TOYING Of GreeEville
and Anierson exceedingly oppressive,
because lis operation has had the effect
ofdriying trade from large area Of ter
ritory, which formerly found market
here, t. the mountain city. The hostile
management Of tho South Carolina Rail
road has done more to injurc the mate
rial prosperity Of Charleston, and the
up.country also, than can well be csti.
mated, for by charging such enormous
rates of freight to all points not touched
by the Air Line Railroad, they have TO
large extent driven trade to the towns
along the line Of that road, where fceights
arc much cheaper and goods can be sold
proportionately lower. These towns do
not trade with Charleston, but buy of
Atlanta and the Northern citics, and by
bringing their frcights directly over the
Air Line obtain them SO much sooner
than they can do by way of Charleston,
that 1t makes it a business impossibility
for them TO trade in the latter city.
The plain result is that the policy of
the South Carolina Road Injuries Charles.
ton by divcrting the trade of the up
country TO centers which purchase in
other markets :. Injuries itself by this
diversion, for by increasing the frcights
to these points on the Air Line, it looses
the carrying Of them and it Injuries Tic
interior towns Of the up-country by driv-
Ing off their trade to other maixcts,
which are situated upon road more
fayorably inclined toward. their CONNER
cial prosperity. We will try to give The
rates of discrimination in our next issue,
and hope tho press and the public scnti.
ment Of South Carolina will be brought
to bear to relieve us of this oppression.
which subscrvcs the good of no one cx.
ccpt business men along the line Of the
Air Line Railroad.

The great railroad strike is virtually at
an end, and the misguided laborers of
the disturbed section have returned to
work at reduced wages where they can
get employment. Numbers of the lead
ers Of che numerous riots have been az.
rested for trial, and great many others
have been dismissed from the service of
the railroads where they held positions.
The general feeling is that there will be
no further trouble in railroad circles Of
consequence for years to come. The
failure of this gigantic effort to accomp-
lish anything for tho Iaborers has been a
severe lesson, which will not be soon for
gotten.

Tho Navy Department paid full fare
for soldiers sent over railroads TO pToisot

This was of course proper, for It is the
duty Of the general government 10 pro-
tect the property, and maintain the pub

properly requested TO do SO, and the
transportation of soldiers is the duty of
the government, and not Of the disturbed
