Judge Speer, but he never relented,
but rallied and came again.
Yesterday his case was called before
the Commissioners, in Atlanta, and
before the case was opened the differ
ent roads assured the Commission
that on the 10th inst. they would ac
ceed to Mr. Brewer’s demand—totake
off the 4 cents per one hundred pounds
charged on western produce of all
kinds, when ehipped in less than car
load lots.
Mr. Brewer certainly is entitled to
the thanks of this and other sections
of Georgia for his persistent efforts on
this line.
