the development OF their resources. OF
all sections IL most needs the help OF
outside mon ana money, and this can
only be secured by liberal dealing"
Tho people of this State have repeat
eddy agitsted this subject of legislative
control, virtually, of railroads, but it
has accomplished no beneficial results
for Texas. The lowering OF passenger
rates and other interference with the
Independent management of ths roads
seems to have only scared away CAP
itsl and led up TO the formation OF a
big pool. II is question whether we
have not lost heavily by our tamper-
Ing With the roads in the matter Of
rates and charges. Powers absolute
overeuch schedules have been the most
Objectionable features TO the Georgia
commission. Capital wants to mako
al tho profit 1t can aud by it's own
methods, and avoids communities
that throw obstacles in its way.
But, while this il undoubtedly true,
he State ought not to give great
bodies of organized capital carte
blanche ID rob the people at will, and
by combinations that absorb smsli
rivals and shut ont all competition.
The States duty to its citzsns Is 10
foster competition and legitimate bus
lnosa, not Co prescribe limits to profit
and assume tho management OF pTi-
vate business. To say TO railway,
this much you may charge for your
service, but no more, is to dlscourSge
competition. Competition 10 founded
upon The receipt of great earnings by
some established company. Pools
and combinations of one kind and
another are tho direct results
OF legislative prescription of freight
and passenger rates. A pool onco es-
tsblished, rates never fall. Competi'
ton, enforced by statutes forbidding
pools, constantly reduces rates and
constantly results in building nav
and additional lines.
These arc plain business truths and
worthy tho attention Of our Legislators
Fair business ought TO DO compelled
and composition be secured by statutes
In every State forbidding any pooling
or combinations, under heavy ponal.
ties, aud preventing the leasing and
absorption by purchase, or otherwise
OF any competing line by another
Against such self protection no com.
pany can rightfully complain of tho
psoplo. Their profits would depoud
not upon legislative enhetmonts, out
business laws, and The State would
neither bs avoided nor plundered.
