AN OUTRAGE.

The railroads have advanced the
freight rate OH coal % to so per
cent. Atlanta is kicking. Well
may other towns la Georgia kick
also. 1t is an outrage. 1t seems
that the West Point Terminal system
is the cause of this extortion. The
Terminal made formal demand on
the Nashville, Chattanooga and st.
Louis railroad to advance the Wes-
tern and Atlantic coai rate, which
they refused to do. In order to carry
its point, the terminal made a de-
mand on the Queen and Crescent to
advance lis coal rates from the
mines to the Georgia line to cover
the difference which the w. & A..
refused to adopt. The Cincinnati
Southern fell into line. Thus the
gouging process is being accomplish
ed by means unjust 20 the people.
The Legislature can very readily see
what railroad combination, like that
of the Terminal, will do for Georgia
unless they command halt and say
thus far shalt thou 90 ana no farther
