from Jefferson City, where be had
been TO watch the progress OF the max
imum freight bill that came up before the
house OF representatives Wednesday after,
boon at 2 o'clock. The bill was discussed
for some time and a number Of speeches
we're made 10 favor Of 1t both by demo.
Gratis and republicans. After a full dis.
cussion II was ordered TO engrossmen,
by q unanimous vote,
II 10 seldom that 4 bill meets with such
Z. favorable reception at the hands OF our
legislature. II IL no exaggeration to say
that our W townswan, Mr.. J. @. Nc.
Grew, has done much to contribute TO the
favorable reception Of this bill, not by
any unfair OF improper lobbying, but by
going before the committee which had
the bill 10 charge and laying before them
facts and figures that furnished them
reliable data from which to draw their
conclusions, aud which the railroad rep.
rssentativos themselves could not deny.
The bill is certainly well started on the
road TOT successful passage, but whether
It passes finally or not, our own commu.
atty a. we'll as the state at large is In.
dsbtsd to Mr.. Mcorew for the efforts be
has made In behalf OF this bill.
