"The agitation against the railroads to the South Is not without causo or reason,” said Allison Mayfield, chairman of the railroad commission of Texas, at the Raleigh. "That there have ben many abuses on the part of the railroads and discriminations against farmers Is not to be doubted, but the question to my mind Is whether it Is wise to take the dras tic measures against the roads that some of the States are now resorting to. “The railroads are absolutely nec essary: we cannot get along without them. In Texas the railroad commis sion has the power to fix rates, both freight and passenger, but before we nmko a rate we are careful to inves tigate tho financial condition and earning capacity of the road. So far we have only taken action in one case to reduce both freight and passenger rates. As a rule, a rail road does not make much out of Its passenger service, and relics al most entirely for Its profits on Its freight traffic. “I believe the laws of Arkansas, Georgia, and North Carolina will be modified to many respects after enreful investigation has been made. I understand an Investigation is now going on here. The unparalled prosperity of the country has made the demand for trains so great that the railroads have been utterly un able to supply enough cars. But if the railroads are now compelled to suffer from drastic legislation they have only themselves to blame to a large measure, because of their ac tions of the past I am confident that the present agitation will result in much good no,t only for the people, but for the railroads also."—Wash ington Post.

SAVANNAH, GA., October 12.— (Special)—In a speech given at a smoker of the Chamber of Commerce to Savannah, Friday night, Maj. F. Hanson , President of the Central of Georgia, to an impromptu speech expressed his views as to railroad legislation to Georgia. He was asked to give his opinion of that body "which is trying to run tho railroads on an experience limited to the pur chase of a ticket or the securing of a free pass.” The speech of Maj. Hanson was something of a surprise for its vig orous statement of the situation. It was to the nature of a turning upon his tormentors. "For several years certain pollti clans and newspapers have worked day and night,” he said, "to build up a sentiment adverse to railroads in this state. To such an extent has this prejudice gone that men have been taught to and do believe that between railroads and capital one hand and tho people on the other there Is a conflict that cannot be quelled except through the passage and operation of legislation that will destroy these interests.” Maj. Hanson said that this state has an administration which has adopted a policy so piejudical to the railroads that even the Governor does not approve. He declared that there has been no effort to check tho effect lhat has been wrought by the broad cast spreading of these errors. He said legislative committees persist ently turned deaf ears to all the facts that the Central Railway rep resentatives presented, that the com mittees “paid no more attention the presentation of facts thnn they did to the blowing of the wind." He then turned his attention to the inability of his road to build the shops at Macon which have been projected, and which are necessary to order to keep tho company's equip ment on the rails.

This failure to carry out these plans, he said, Is due to the lack of money, the shortage of which Is due to weakened credit of the company, which has been Induced by the op pressive tactics of the Legislature., "How are these improvements to be made?” he asked with much feel ing. “Will the demagogues put up the money? Did they ever put up a cent for the betterment of the country, or any Interest save a sel fish one. Aro they worth tho des truction of the credit which they| have wrought? Are the demagogues worth the price you are paying?" Roosevelt nnd Demagogues. 'This war which has been waged for five months on corporations, led by President Roosevelt, with all the demagogues in the country at his heels, has destroyed the value of pro- erty to this country one-fifth,” he said. He then reviewed how for more than thirty years he fios devoted his whole time and energy to the de- South, only to see it seriously mcn- South, only to seel t seriously men aced at this time by an adverse sen timent which is backed by Ignorance, demagogy and mlslnformatloh. Dur ing these long years he has strug glod, he said, to build up a credit as good as the credit of any corporation to the country. He declared that the Central is managed as judicious ly and ns wisely ns any railroad East of the Mississippi or South of the Potomac river. OIB SPECIAL SALE 25c, 35c, 50c, and 75c, Engraved TM0S. L.

Hanson asserted tbat "the Central neither has money, nor can it borrow it, to do the things that must be done. We are powerless to make any Improvements. If the sensible and conservative people don’t come to the rescue some of the op pressed railroads will certainly be forced Into the hands of a receiver.” He said the Central officials are be ing blackguarded for appealing to federal courts fer protection. “We had to go to some source where facto would be considered.” he said.
