The railroads entering Georgia's

on an equitable basis. IS: compared
with rates to other southern cities:
This action CT the railroads was
formal and deliberate, taking the form
of written letters to the commission
fled with that Eody in Atlanta Fri
day morning. =:
The fight for fair freight rates :sor
Atlanta has now shaped itself into q
twofolG proposition. The Georgia rail
road commission has pledged itself to
enforce just, fair AMI equitable Local
rates where shipments go out OF Geor-
gia, while the irJra state rates must
be fought before the interstate conl-
merce commission. "
The Georgia railroad commission
has fixed September 7 as the day upon
which it will consider and discuss the
!! last step Of the railroads, ANIL the At
lanta freight bureau, in the name Of
which the fair rates crusade was and
is being waged, will probably take 40
further steps until the railroad com
mission has expressed itself after the
meeting Of September I.
The railroads refusing to comply
with the commissions rulings are:
The Southern, the Nashville, Chat

ing different in each letter filed Fri

they have no voice in fixing rates from
Ohio river crossings to Atlanta, al
though 6. part of the haul is made over
their lines. Other roads declare thai
to carry out the orders Of the com

it would create endless confusion and
be practically impossible. Again, II
Is asserted that it is not fair to give

Mr.. Moore will go on the stand at
Statesboro before the court OF inquiry
and testify about. the rece.c.. lynchiug.
He says that the general opinion
around Statesboro is tlat Captain
Hitch, in ordering the military no.
to fire acted wisely and bravely.
Mr.. Moore says that there were over
200 Winchesters in town, and pickets
had been stationed in the second sto-
ries. Had shot been fred by one OF
the military, Mr.. Moore says his can
did opinion is that not live soldier
would have been left.
Interspersed through the mob were
some preachers and best people OF
statesboro,> vino were trying to get the
crowd to Gesist from their determil>
ton. To have fired into such q crowd
would have been to kill innocent peo-
pie. The people of Bulloch are a unit
in upholding the lynching, says Mr..
Moore. The people not only Indorse
Captain Hitch, but would give him a
sword if he would accept it.. Tney
have even discussed this, but know
that Captain Hitch would not take
such a testimonial at this time.
Mr.. Moore said that it was mis-.
take about labor leaving Bulloch since
