'The foregoing rates." the Commission.
ers say, 1--WE believe to be just AMI reason.
able and so decide. There are strong rea-
sons, growing out of wise and just public
policy, for the establishment OF distance
tariff rates as low can reasonably be
afforded. 1t tends to build up and encour-
age manufacturing and other business en-
terprises within the State. The rail.
roads operating here derive their chief
substance and support from the productive
industries of the people of the State. In
the building of large number of the rail
roads of the State, the people have directly
contributed aid in a lavish manner. II is,
therefore, in the highest degree unjust TO
maintain through and distance rates so dis
proportioned as to repress the industrial
development of State whose people have
made the railroad systems within il strong,
and throw the greatbulk ofindustrial wealth
into another State" In regard to coal
shipped from the Usage mines, the Com
missioners were not prepared to reach
satisfactory conclusion. Additional evil
dence was being examined and a decision
would soon be reached. The rates pre-
scribed are not intended to supersede spe-
cial tariffs or rates on live stock, coal
stone, hay and emigrants' outfit, when
such special tariffs provide rates below
those fixed by the Commissioners. The
Board expressed the opinion that all such
special tariffs, when alike to all, where the
conditions and circumstances are similar,
are in conflict with no law OF the State,
nor in contravention o. Just rules of bust
ness which should cover the conduct of
railroad affairs. For the purpose of afford
ing sufficient time to the respondent COM
pany to formulate freight schedules in ac-
cordance with this decision the time Is ex-
tended twenty days from January 30 for
the taking effect OF the new rates, unless
for good cause shown it shall appear that
this time Is insufficient.
