The Richmond Terminals Change.
(Atlanta constitutional


Yesterday the final arrangements were
made for the removal of the Richmond
Terminals headquarters from Washington
to Atlanta.
The Constitution will adhere to its
course. more than once outlined in these
columns, opposing the railroads when they
are wrong and standing by them when
they are right. This is the only course
that will serve the best interests OF the
people. Now that the Richmond Termi-
nal has inaugurated progressive, liberal,
and philosophical policy, and has shown
through Vice-President Calhoun willing
ness to promptly correct the evils OF ex-
cessive coal rates and other mistakes our
people should meet them half way.
This view will prevail in the Legs
lature, as well as outside, and 1t Is sale
to say that no vicious or spiteful legs
lation will DO INDUCED in. Our law
makers will not engage in an anti-corpora,.
ton crusade, but they Will strengthen and
amplify the powers Of the Railway Com
mission from time TO time Whenever the
situation justifes such action. The CON-
mission must be equipped for any emer-
gency, and armed with absolute and SUI
preme power. This will protect the peo-
pie and will not injure any transportation
system that is satisfied with reasonable
and Just business methods.
