North Carolina Rail and Telegraph Rates Amendment Bill
A bill to amend the 1891 act governing railroad, telegraph and canal operations in North Carolina. It sets new election based appointments, caps passenger and message rates, prescribes universal rates for freight, telephones rents, and prohibits free passes while outlining penalties and enforcement by the Railroad Commission. The measure repeals conflicting acts and becomes effective upon ratification.

Majority Report on North Carolina Railroad Bills
The report states no change in electing Railroad Commissioners and opposes reducing railroad and steamboat rates in North Carolina. It endorses Railroad Commission oversight of telegraph and telephone rates, warns against free passes for public officers, and argues for keeping rates while reducing salaries and abuses. A minority report supports electing railroad commissioners by the people and argues for fare and rate reductions and free pass bans with detailed cost and corporate claims.

Special Privileges in North Carolina Rail Fares Questioned
The NC railroads charge 2 cents per mile for 1000-mile buyers and 3 cents for others, with the latter needing the discount most. A bill to unify all fares at 2 cents per mile failed by one vote in the Senate and by a narrow margin in the House. The piece questions the old rule special privileges to none.
