tariffs was an unwise exercise of the legis.
lative power. They found that three.
fourths of the traffic of Great Britain was
conducted on so. called special rates. They
reported that "the principle which gov
erns railway company in fixing the rate
is that of creating traffic by charging such
. sum for conveyance as will induce the
produce of one district to compete with an
other in common market" And further
that "the power OF granting special rates
permits a development Of trade which
would not otherwise exist, and it is album
dainty evident that large portion of the
trade of the country at the present time
has been created by and is continued on
the faith of special rates."
IF UNTRAMMELED BY RESTRICTIVE STATUTES,
Railway companies grant special rates when
necessary to foster enterprise and encourage
trade To promote production, on which
traffic depends, they often find it to their
ultimate advantage to carry at small pro-
fit, or none at all, and not infrequently at
a positive loss. The questions constantly
arising in the adjustment of tariffs 30 az
best to serve our multiplying commerce re-
quire board of experts to be in constant
session. Such are the traffic managers of
our railways who are called upon to know
and to practically consider all the infu-
ences, immediate or remote, which affect
the principles of transportation, not only
in the framing of standard tariffs, but in
determining the special rates that are TO
meet the multitude Of particular emergen-
cies that constantly present themselves.
la this work of internal development under
the operation of the laws Of supply and
demand, statutes can interfere only to the
detriment of the public interest.

ABOUT TRANSPORTATION.
TIE GREAT REDUCTION IN COST OF
CHARGES OF RAILWAY SERVICE
The Principles on Which Rates Are
Based-Failurs Of State
Ownership.
From the Chicago Times. ]


In previous articles on the transportation
question 1t has been shown that, under the
free and unrestricted control of railroads
by their owners, the burden of transporta-
ton on commerce has been, through the
operation of the sovereign laws OF trade,
very greatly lightened. The extent to
which it has been so lightened is repre-
scented by All aggregate sum OF vast propoi-
tions. In order to solve the increasing ex-
ipencies of production, great economy and
Improvement in the railway service have
been effected, thus enabling the railroads
to meet the necessity for important and
continued reduction in transportation rates.
1t has been shown that the aggregate sum
saved by reduction in freight charges alone
for the period between the close of the war
of the rebellion and the present year is
fully one and half times greater than the
entire money cost of the war to the people
of the United States. The difference be-
tween the sum of
