These Mormons are polygamists, and
the government is being urged to sell

Congress invokes expert testimony
for its guidance in reforming tbs
laws, the witnesses almost invariably
demand with the utmost gravity
that the laws shall be so framed as
to bring money into their pocket
10 matt.r who else suffers. A most
.musing instance of this shortsighted
,elfshness is reportsd from Texas.
In that State number Of persons
have set up ice-naking machines.
Their profits are curtailed by the
importation of natural ice from the
North, which is carried over the
railroads. In order to get rid of the
opposition the ice.makers have
peeitioned the Interstate Commerce
Commission to order the railroads
to increase their freight charges on
ice. They say that the companies
are discriminating unjustly against
the ice-making industry by carrying
ice to cheaply from Colorado and
Missouri, and that If they are allow
ell to maintain present rates a yalu-
able Texan industry will he exiting.
uished.
The protes; Of the Texan ice
makers should be examined in the
light of facts. If the railroad com.
panies are bringing ice at low rates
for the purpose Of freezing out" the
home ice manufacturers, the home
ice manufacturers have right to
ask the Interstate Commerce Com
mission to require the roads to
maintain steady rates. If, on the
other hand, the natural ice can be
brought into Texas and sold at lower
rates than the artificial article can
be made for, the home ice companies
must take the consequences OF har-
ing embarked in losing business
They h,ve no right to expect that
the Interstate Commerce Commi-'
sion will establish rates with view
to enable the homa ice manufacturer
to obtain exorbant prices for his
product. Free competition under
equal conditions is the life Of trlde,
and citizen of one State have no right
to expect that law will be enacted
to give them advantages over citizens
of other States.
