For some time there lias been a constant clamor for cheaper rates on the railroads of the state, and now, by order of the railroad com mission of Georgia, reduced rates for both freight and passenger fare ha ve been put on by the railroads in the state of Georgia. There is a general complaint by the public that instead of getting goods and supplies cheaper the re verse is too result, the maijnfac turer and middleman reaping all the profits from this reduced rate —in fact, a number of staple goods and supp 1i e s have been ad vanced over the old rate before the freight rates were lowered. But with the reduced passsenger rates everyone who purchases a ticket enjoys this reduced rate, large or small, according to the distance lie travels. But there is a greater dissatis faction over the new passenger rates than over the freight rates. It was formerly the case that any one could purchase a ticket to any point over any number of roads and rest easy on the ticket ques tion for that trip, at least, but not so now. The railroads have made a new ruling among themselves not to have anything to “do” with one another when it comes to selling tickets over connecting lines. To travel now, one must buy a ticket at each terminal and re check all baggage each time a new ticket is bought. If one wishes to go from this place to some point on the Central, say Hampton. When Griffin is reached you have not only got to buy a new ticket but yon must go and hunt up your baggage and then have it recliocked. The same is true on any other trip yon take where a terminal and new road is leached. On last Saturday at the local sta tion here there was considerable disappointment for a number of people because they could not se cure the regular week-end tickets to Atlanta. No round trip ticket s, no through tickets over connecting lines, no saving in the freight rate to the final consumer, and an end less chain of red tape when travel ing is about the sum total secured by this clamor of the politicians for a cut in the railway fares of the state. There is a very small saving to the person who travels but little and a lot of worry that lias been eliminated by the roads in the through service given the public by the former system. Sow a discontent with the poli ticians and yon reap an 'avalanche of dissatisfaction and inconveni ence for yourself, The Fall Here, The cotton and fall season is now here, and all the local firms are fully prepared for their many customers. Every merchant here is getting large shipments of fall and winter goods everyday now and in a few days there will be one of the most select lines of goods to he had in McDonough in any town in Middle Georgia. Some few of the merchants have already begun to tell the public what they have. Look out for many of them through the columns of The Weekly in the near future.
