The 18th Legislature embodied IN
the railroad law Of that session a pro
vision that railroads shall not charge
less for longer than for shorter
haul through tho State, The effect OF
this clause is a practical diserimina'
ton against our homo folks and in
favor OF tho people who do business
outside tho State, or only come here
for a season. 1t is detrimental to
our cotton factors and buyers, who
cannot compete with those abroad
and homo producers do not get as
much for it as they would otherwise
obtain. An amendment obviating
this wrong is before the present leg
