The rste of 2 cents a niile. The railroads formerly sold Inter changeable mileage books, good on In ter and iRtra-stftte Journeys, but, when the legislature passed an act compell ing them to pull the mileage on the train they withdrew this class of mile age and each1 road substituted a mile age only good on lntra-stato Journeys and only on the road by which it was sold. The coupons could only be used by the individual purchaser. This system baa necessitated traveling men covering the state to carry a mileage book for each road In South Carolina, a.considerable outlay or money. The new departure of ths Southern is occasioning a great deal of com niftnt. Many take it that the advened* policy of the road means that the mile age question is gradually adjusting self._ GEO. C.
