AS TO RAILROAD RATES.
\ WELCOME CONTRIBUTION
FROM AN EXPERT.
MIR. Winburn Replies to sIr. Keep
Ier, Presenting some Figures
That Are Especially Pertinent
Just Now.

EDITOR THE CITREN:-So far rs am
informed the question of Railroad
Freight Rates" has hot excited a partic.
nlarly lively interest among our citizens
generally, and may possibly tax the pa.
ticncc of your readers by asking their at
tcntion to the matter again, but in order
to furnish Mr. S, X. Keplcr information
on this subject, which, from his letter in
yesterdays CITIZEN, the Raleigh News
aud Observer appears not to have given
him, desire to submit list OF the local
rates charged by the different divisions OF
the Richmond & Danvillc railroad com
pany in North Carolina, as compared
with those III iorcei in the state of Georgia.
The Western North Carolina railroad
tariff, from which quote, has benin IN
interrupted use since September 9TH,
1887, and shipments made by Mr. Keep
Ter to and from stations between Sails
bury and Paint Rock, or stations on the
Murphy Branch have been charged for
in accordance with it. The North Caro-
lima Division tariff has been in force since
February 10th, 1880, and the Gcor.
gia tariff since October 18th.
The latter is what is known as the stan
dard tariff Of the Georgia railroad com
mission, and contains the lowest freight
rates that that body has ever seen fit to
fix, and is only imposed upon the trunk
lines, the shorter or more unproiitablc
roads being allowed to charge much
higher figures. The classification OF ncr.
chandisc applying in this state and in
Georgia are nearly identical winch |
shall be glad To demonstrate to Mr.. kep.
Ter, although il is too bulky to embrace
in this statement. The following is the
comparison:
