Public sentiment shifts on railroad commission reform in Americas
A local discussion notes the Georgia exhibit move to New Orleans after the State Fair and reports on General Toombs condition. The House railroad committee favors passage of a Senate bill modifying the Railroad Commission law, reflecting a broad petition from about one hundred Americas businessmen urging reform based on experience with the current commission. The piece cites changes in public opinion, the lack of efficacy of the existing system, and calls for a healthier reassessment of railroad regulation.

Sentiments of the People on Railroad Law in Columbus
The Columbus Enquirer Sun reports merchants favor a modified railroad law with a petition of 500 signatures urging the Legislature to allow railroads to set their own rates and to let both sides appeal to courts. The Macon Telegraph notes merchants support reform, while a House committee's effort to block the bill is questioned as political maneuvering. The piece also mentions a separate constitutionality case in New York.
