Julius Brown, a famous Atlanta attorney and brother of Governor and Senator Joseph E. Brown, attacks the opponents of the bill that would incorporate the Cincinnati and Georgia Rail Road. Instead of seeking the Public Good Brown maintains the opponents (including the Louisville and Nashville Rail Road Co.) wish to maintain an unfair Railroad monopoly.
