The letter OF the railroad commits
siouers to the present general assembly,
drawn out by Hon. VIM. II. Carriers
resolution. deserves very careful read
ing and consideration. It says much,
in so many words, but it says more, be-
tween the lines. The commission IS
composed of men of i~ncorrup'lhle Ia
tegrily, DESTROYS of doing their duty,
bat as a matter of fact without power.
The railroads are content to let things
remain as they are-they want no leg
islati1n: they are like tie protected
manufacturing monopoiist, who cries
out that there will be a financial cata-
clysm If his pampering subsidy Is with
drawn. when it is history that 1879 and
1854 were both high protective years.
Every general assembly since 1870 has
acknowledged the necessity for railroad
legislation; yet zone OF them have given
it TO us-there is always q quarrel as to
modes. Why not take a vote ID the
house on that point, and then perfect a
bill according to that d%ecisionf 1t
seems to us that would be better than
to fritter away the session i'll conflicts
over the constitutional point at issue.
AS for ourselves we believe that the re-
concentrations OF the commission are
honest and patriotic, unselfsh, and
arrived at after mature Elaboration.
The difficulty of permanently fixing
maximum freight rates by the legisla-
ture is demonstrated by the worthless
ness of the present law. 1t cannot be
successfully done-more than that, 1t
seems almost impossible to get a legis-
lature to agree upon such rates at all.
This whole matter should be entrusted
to the commission, which can coolly,
calmly, intelligently, free from parti-
sanism or demagogism, decide upon
rates just to the people as well as to
the railroads. 1t is too late now to dis
cuss the necessity for the regulation by
the state of railroads, VI the cOnstitu-
tionality of the necessary legislation
all that is settled by experience and by
numberless judicial decisions. The
thing which concerns the people now
is, have our legislators the courage to
Withstand the pressure brought upon
them by the railroad lobby, and to do
what their constituents want? 1t they
have, and there is an earnest desire to
give us a law, it can be accomplished.
One thing, at least, should be done.
Because OF vaguenesa in the law though
the intent is plain, the Missouri Pacific
railroad is resisting the order of the
commissioners reducing passenger fares
Oh the line from Sedalia to Kansas City,
by way of Lexington, from four to
three cents per mile. The time has
come when it can fairly he done, and
this resistance is q good occasion for
doing it-a law should be passed by
this legislature making three cents the
maximum passenger late on all roads;
and it should be couched in such words,
and carry with it such a penalty that It's
evasion will be impossible.
