I am quite sure Georgia otherwise would be tn th- same fix as South Carolina, and the traveling men would rather let well enough alone. I am sure we can not compel the roads to sell fn terchaugea-ble mileage unless they wish to do so. Thanking you gentlemen in ad vance for doing that which will benefit the greatest number, by letting the traveling men get the exchange ticket for mileage. Yours truly, (Signed)’ W. M.
