and the best way out of it seems to be by
changing the time for electing such offi-
GERS. This matter viii undoubtedly be

THE RAILROAD BILL
introduced by Mr.. Brown of Gray
| son fixes maximum rates OF freight
and passenger charges, forbids
discrimination and provides
a commission composed of three mem
bers, a lawyer, a railroad man and a
citizen of some other walk in life. It is 81
very elaborate bill and embraces some
5000 words. Capt. Brown has been a
railroad and corporation attorney for
many years. It would be funny if he
should head the fight on the railroads
get his bill passed and then run for gov
ernor on his record, wouldn It it?
