TO MAKE ROAD
COMMON CARRIER
Not Likely That Efforts viii Be Sue.
cessfuI In This Particular
Case.


Special to the News
JACKSON, October 22.-Efforts on
the part of the citizens in that vicin-
ity to make the railroad of the Cotton
States Lumber company, running from
Mehan Junction, in Lauderdale county,
to Battlefield, in Newton, a common
carrier, in the sense that would place
it under the supervision and control of
the Railroad Commission, have thus
far failed.
The road is only about eighteen
miles long, was constructed primarily
as logging road, and has been used
exclusively for that purpose with the
exception that slight deviations have
been made in the carrying of certain
articles of freight for patrons living
along the line, at about the actual
cost, and more for the accommodation
of its neighbors than for profit. In
fact, 1t is stated that no profit at all
has been realized from such accom-
mediation, and the road would prefer
not to handle the business at all but
for the fact that a refusal would ap-
pear mean, and would make the con
pany unpopular with the people along
the line of it's road, which has no ia
cilities for carrying passengers, and
no preparations for entering into
bushes of common carrier.
For the purpose of determining lust
what was the actual situation there
Railroad Commissioner Webb has re-
Gently made a trip up there, and his
accommodation to the full commission
will be that the road be not subject
to the supervision of the commission.
Capt Webb is now making a tour
of his district, inspecting the roads
therein, and will submit his report on
their condition, physically, at the next
meeting of the commission on Nov. 1st

If the readers of the Hattiesburg

Hyomei is so simple and pleasant to
use; pour a few drops from the bot
tie into the inhaler and breathe it in.
AS it passes over the membrane and
into the lungs with the air you breathe
1t soothes the raw membrane and
kills the catarrh germs. Don't expe-
