Fort WORTH, Tex, June q, 1890.
Editor Gazette:
Please allow me a few lines in your
valuable paper TO correct a statement
made by Mr. S. 7. Fraser in his car in
this mornings GAZETTE. He says: Gin
Georgia the duties of the commission are
confined almost exclusively to the
fixing of rates and to, preventing
unjust determinations, and do not ex-
tend TO such matters as inadequate depot
and station accommodations, and the
like. In this he is mistaken. The Geor-
gia railroad commission does attend 'to
such matters as inadequate depot and
station accommodations and the like. -
While in Atlanta this last winter l was
employed in the office of the secretary of
the railroad commission as stenographer
for a short time, and had several letters
dictated to me calling the attention of
the managers of certain railroads to such
matters, and if said accommodations were
not made 10 show just cause before the
commission. EX-GEORGIAN.

OPPOSED TO MILLS.
Special correspondence of the Gazette.
RocxDALE, TEX, June 2l.-Among
the most extreme members of the Alli-
ance there is considerable hostility en-
tertaiued toward Congressman r. Q.
Mills on account of his opposition to the
sub treasury scheme proposed by the
Alliance, and it has been predicted that
MIR. Mills will not be reelected. More
conservative farmers have little to say
or the subject, but the sub-treasury
matter will undoubtedly be u factor in
the coming congressional campaign.
Probably no fight will be made against
Mills in the conventions, hut an indie
pendent Democrat, favoring revenue
tariff the same as Mills, and the sub
treasury may stand for election in this,
the Ninth district, in full condolences OF
receiving the bulk of the farmer vote.
