lournment of the legislature. He said
that the general assembly has already

II has been in session than Is ordin.
arily accomplished during an entire
session and the solons are feeling
very proud of their work, He spoke
with sorrow Of the bereavement in
the family of Representative w. C..
Thornsberry of Coffee county, who
yesterday suffered the loss of two
nieces and a nephew, who died OF in.
.fiuenza, while his mother is in q criti.
cal condition from the same malady.
Representative Hays has had the
Maury county road law held up in the
house before the road committee for
further consideration. He stated that
ne had received a number of letters
and petitions from citizens of the
county in opposition to the proposed
measure. Most of the citizens sign
ing the petitions reside in the Third
district and the petition does not
state what their cause OF opposition
Is.
Since the measure was approved by
the county court and committee Of
the county roads association no petit
tons had been secured In his favor, ii
being assumed that this. expression OF
approval would be sufficient recon-
rnendation for il. The bill was intro.

IAN effort Is being made by Column
bia shippers to secure an equalization
Of freight rates from and to this city

cities in the state. Attorney Shelby
Coffee is representing some Of these
shippers before the Interstate Com

ed to be due them for overcharges on
grain shipments to New Orleans for
export. s''t
SIT was found that the rate on corn
from Columbia to New Orleans was
20 cents from Columbia and only Is
cents from Mt. Pleasant. When the
attention of the railroad was called
to this inequality, the error was admit,
ted and permission was asked to
change the rate. When permission
was granted the result was a reverse
action which changed the rate Of %
cents from Columbia and 32 cents
from Columbia, which has since been
changed to 81 cents from Columbia
and 35 cents from Mt Pleasant, both
points being considerably higher than
Nashville and other grain shipping
points, The railroad company also
declined to make any PREPARATION for
oVercharges claimed by the shippers.
This issue has been taken to the In
terstate Commerce Commission for
settlement, and the commission also
will be asked to adjust the rates at
this point to conform to rates from
Nashville.
4, Another inequality that local ship
pers and dealers are seeking to have
eliminated is that or shipped to Co.
l,irnbia from New Orleans ON which
the rate to Nashville plus the local
rate from Nashville back to Columbia
Is charged. Columbia dealers and
wholesalers do not object to paying
the Nashville rate, but they do not
believe II Is fair to charge them the
additional local rate from Nashville
to Columbia when the shipments are
stopped here and never so to Nash.
vile. Sugar, rice, molasses. bananas
and such products shipped from New
Orleans to Columbia are stopped here,
but the dealers are compelled to pay
the freight into Nashville and back
to Columbia. which gives the Nash
vile dealers a distinct advantage in
selling at practically all points north
OF Columbia.
The Columbia dealers will make no
complaint against the long haul rate
toqNashyille, but when their shipments
! are unloaded here before reaching
Nashville they do not want to pay the
freight as II 1t had been shipped to
Nashville and back again.
There Is some talk in business cir
ctes OF the formation of traffic bur-
eau at Columbia for the purpose of.
keeping tab on freight rates at this
point and securing adjustments that
will put this city on an equal footing
with, other cities in the state on com
modlties ON which, Ii is now believed
discrimination exists
