Hamilton Journal. VOL VIII.—NO. 51. THE HAMILTON JOURNAL. One Dollar A Year. Reduction of Railroad Fares. No act of the railroad commission will meet with each universal commendation as its rednotion of fares on the principal rail roads in the State, from four to three cents per mile. While the redaction will be of great benefit to those who have to travel it will not operate against the roads as it will greatly increase travel. The re dnoed rates go into effect on the fliat of February It does not apply to the Colum bus & Rome road, or to any abort branch in the State. This ia to be regretted, and it is to be hoped that these branches and short roads, in deference to public opinion, will exercise the privilege granted by the commission by reducing their rales to cor respond with those of the other roads, so that the rate may be uniform throughout the state- If these roa Is only appreciated the travel lost by ihe present rates, we be lieve they would reduce them at once, sim ply as a buhiness measure. Upon this giound scaly could we urge the reduction* Conference Appointments. We give below the appoint ments of the Columbns District of the South Georgia Conference for the next year.
