Witk the internal operation of rail-! road companies the State Register has! no concern, but the external operationsof railroads arc matters which affect every citizen, and which are, therefore, proper subjects of ditcussion. There is 10 doubt that the producing Interests or .the state are obliged-to pay tribute to '1 the transportation companies and now that transportation is as legitimate bttsinei9 as production, bolh production and '.raiuportaiion ought to lie free »Vom governmental interference, and each being free, will find its greatest'profit tti.d will reach its highest development. is in consonance with these ideas that we call attention to the Wabash",**
