TIME TO CALL A HALT.

Kps. JOURNAL--Weh have been examin-
ing each days proceedings of the Legisls-
ture, hoping to see some man like Hutchins
of G winnett, or Miller OF Houston, call
halt on the universal railroad boom before
mischief is done. The theory of expansion
is captivating and we like it, provided it is
controlled by practical business methods
not otherwise. Let US see, do the laws OF
supply and demand require of this General
Assembly that it aid by legislative grant the
construction OF rail road lines that will de-
stroy the property OF the state2 Would 1t
he wise 10 allow tho Cincinnati Southern to
reach the Atlantic Coast lines, by running
its cars over the right of way Of the West
ern and Atlantic Railroad, the property OF
the peopleH A property from which they
are now realizing sufficient sum TO begin
the education of their children and which
if properly managed would pay the entire
debt of the State In fifteen years. II our
acts are the result of patriotic desire to
further the interest Of the people, we would
call halt and ponder well any proposition
that portends results 30 fraught with mis-
chief az this idea suggests. Will Ex-Gov.
Brown answer the following interrogato'

a competing line over your present right o.
