The Columbus Enquirer-Sun has no
patience with the prevailing habit in
that town of going abroad for big
names for local places. 1t cannot I'M
derstand, for example, why a restau-
rant In Columbus should be called Del
monico's, or Savoy. or Waldorf-Astoria,
or any other big name taken from
some other and greater city. Well, it
should be borne in mind that many
persons believe that there is something

SUNDAY, JUNE 20. 1eeo.

From all we can learn about It the
craze OF jingoism seems to have vir-
tualiy abandoned our country and tax
en- up It's abode in England. War talk
and war fear seem to be the order OF
the day. Statesmen and newspapers
are full OF II, and in all parts Of the
kingdom there appears to be not only
the fear but the belief that war with
Germany lie imminent. 1t is dificult to
comprehend this feeling but it is there
and is apparently becoming the absorb
ing topic and belief of the times
among the English people. They seem
to be Dominated by sort Of fatalistic
belief that England and Germany must
fight 1t out pretty soon, and nothing
can drive the belief out of their minds.
1t is q curious but inexplicable phase
OF national feeling.

Mileage ResulrtnOn Upheld h, Rines

Atlanta journal . , 49,
Upon the request of the Georgia state
Railroad Commission, Special Attor-
ney James K. Hines has given an
interesting opinion IN regard to the
complaints made by the traveling pub
lie as to the exchange Of mileage book
coupons for straight tickets at rail-
way agencies Attorney Hines holds
that the railroads regulation for the
presentation and exchange of coupons
for mileage is entirely reasonable.
Attorney Hines was asked by the
Commission to furnish an opinion up
on the right of a common carrier to
expei a passenger who had failed to
comply with its regulation, requiring
the exchange Of mileage coupons for
Attorney Aines says that carriers OF
passengers may eject from their con-
veyanees all persons refusing to COM
ply with reasonable regulations. He
says that the present mileage book-ar-
rangement Is reasonable, because the
purchaser enters into a contract with
the railway company selling the mile
age book. One of the terms of the
contract Is that coupons from these
mileage books will not be honored on
trains except at non-agency points or
at station agencies not open for the
sale OF tickets.
The purchaser, says Attorney Hines,
gets a reduced rate and he Is bound
bv the terms of the special contract.
He says in conclusion that the arrange
ment has already, been submitted to
and approved by the State Railroad
Commission.
