There are, perhaps, five thousand men in Georgia who use free passes' over the railroads, in some shape or other. Each of these is interested in the effect the Inter-State commerce bill will have on that privilege. Sen ator Brown, President, of the Western and Atlantic Railroad, has very clear views on this subject. He says: •The inter-8tate commerce bill does not interfere with any railroad issuing a pass to any point within the State in which the railroad is doing busi ness. It does attempt to interfere wi|h issuing passep from one Statu to another.

A unanimous j agreement was reached which will abolish absolutely aud forever the f pai inent of ticket commissions by ' railwai’companh s to agents of eon- i necting lines for the sale of passenger I tickets. This abuse, which began i more than thirfv-five years ago. has ] grown to such enormous proportions ] that it is estimated it is now costing th« rnilwa3’s of tiio United States, j directly and indirect I vq at the rate of more than $5.000.Cd3 annually, and has to a great extent been the means by' which ticket scalpers have been built up. The Central Traffic Association has i b/en at work for over a year in cti- | dcavoring to reach an agreement for ! the abolition of this sistem of bribery. ! but not until now have fie lines been able to reach a unanimous agreement.
