And to watch their maiden efforts in

the frail excuse for not placing the

in Cincinnati. The letter quoted the
freight rates to- various towns , in
North Carolina points about an forci
bly as it Can be put.'-;The rate from
Cincinnati to Lynchburg, Norfolk aqd
Danville,"Va.' is 40; from Cineiji-
nati to Concord, Charlotte and other
North Carolina points, 70. The differ
ence between 40 and 70 shows the
advantage of the "Virginia, towns. It
tells tbe ireight rsite" story as prac
tically the same difference prevails in
the rates on other commodities. ; ,
Therein lies the Cause of the freight
