A Georgia letter writer assails Governor Colquitt over finances and railroad deals. He alleges tax reform credit misstates funds, cites 1870s rail claims against the U S government, and asserts Governor Brown's Senate appointment favored rail interests. The author promises further exposé on state finances and railroad influence.
