A RAILROAD SO MILES LONG
Dctics the state OF Georgia and Rail.
road Con missiou,

There is an obduratc little railroad in
Georgia which has not only shown 4
disposition to fight al the rest of the
State, hut which seems serencly conf
dent that il will win. 1t is only thirty
six miles long ana runs from Dublin to
Tennillc. lis name is the Wrightsville
andTennille Railroad. and il Is pSpecial-
ly distinguished for its prosperity and
its pugnacious qualities. Last year the
cotton growers along the line Of this
road were compelled To ship their cot
ton over the Georgia Central because
the road refused to issue through bills
of lading over any other line. Some Of
the growers wanted TO ship their cotton
oven the Augusta Southern. but the
Wrightsyille and Tennillc refused TO
give them through bills O or that line,
ana made no pretensc TO disguise their
preference. The result was that the
Georgia Central got nearly all the cot
ton and the Augusta Southern got left.
The matter was carried before the
railroad commission, and that body
handed down Il decision ordering the
Wrightsyille and Tennillc Railroad 10
issue through bills OF iddim- over II!
railroads ana not 10 play any favorites.
The commission also ordered the At.
torncy General Of the State To begin
proceedings for damages against the
rccalcitrant railroad and To try the is.
sue involved before the State courts.
Attorney General Terrell ha~<prcpared
his case and will go down To Dublin
to try it before Judge Hart. The de-
Tense will be represented by former
Senator A. !. DAILY, Of Wrightsville.
