Railroad Rates.

In discussing the position which
Governor Ludlngton has taken in
his message favoriDg the establish
ment by law of maximum in the
place OF specific rates, the State
Journal quotes the opinions Of Sow
ernor Ludington's predecess ors, and
Of the Board Of Railway Commits
sioners as follows:
Governor Washburne in his mes
sage for 1873 said
SIN my first annual message |
recommended the organization of a
Board of Railroad Com missioners,
with power to inquire into ali com
plants and abuses, and to exercise q
general supervision over the operas
lions Of several railroads within the
state, and to recommend such legis-
ton as may seem to them expedient,
aud report annually 70 The Governor.
That recommendation | here repeat"
Gov. Taylor, in bis message in
1875, SAID
cit is not my opinion that this
law Potter law expressed the best
Judgment of the legislature which
enacted il. When the general prin-
cples upon which il was found d
command our unqualified approba-
lion, and can never be surrendered,
It must be conceded, that the same
is detective ii some Of it's details
The great object sought to be accom-
plished by our people, is not the
management Of railway property By
themselves, but TO prevent it's mis-
management by others. IL so far as
the law accomplishes this end, and
is the means of public protection, its
provisions should be :aoredIy pre-
served"
Again he said
''But | am rot Of the opinion that
classifcations Of freight and rates Ct
fare and freight, can be established
by an iron bound and inhexib bile rule
of law, with no power of revision
and modification reserved The best
features of our law in relation to
this branch of the subjec. are exem-
plifed in the establishment Of mari
NAM rates Of fare: and its lCorSt TEA
tureS, in the uaWelding character Of
its limitations on rates Of Freight"
The Board of Railway Commits
sioners il their report for 1878, If er
quite fully discusslr & remedial
measures said
sit has appeared 10 the toreg mig
discussion, tEat specific rates OF
charges, fixed by any authority, IN
dependent of the railway companies,
who have the responsibilities OF
management. are every where found
10 be impracticabIe-that stationary
provisions for the control CT bust
ness so intricate and involving such
an infinite variety Of particulars
must be practically worse than use
less, unless broad and general in
character, compelling observance of
established principles, rather than
regulations for ali the
details of practical operations.
