The Portland daily press., 1890-05-12
A Source of Danger,

The State of Maine has reason to view
with apprehension the efforts being made to
cripple the Canadian railroads now doing
business in this country. And Portland, by
reason of its large reliance on one of these
roads for its commercial Importance, has
reason for especial apprehension. This ef-
fort 10 at present expressing itself in an
amendment to the interstate commerce
aw, designed ostensibly to secure compli-
ance ON the part Of these roads with all the
provisions of this law botn in this
country and Canada. The proposition
to license these roads to do BUSH
ness in this country on condition that they
comply strictly in all their traffic with the in
er-state law, and failure to meet this con-
dition is to be made sufficient cause for a re-
vocation of the license and their exclusion
from doing business in our territory. The
motive Oh the interests that are pushing this
amendment is not, we believe, to secure
compliance with the law-for there ia no
very good evidence to show that they are not
doing so at the present time-but to accom-
plish in an indirect way the Gripping of
hese roads. 1t is not the people that are
pushing 1t. There has been no demand from
them for restrictive legislation in regard to
these roads. What demand there is origi-
mates almost entirely with rival railroad
lines, which have conceived the idea that If
these roads can be forced out of competition
with them they can put up their rates and
thus make more money. The ultimate OBJ
iect they have in view is to exclude these
roads from our territory, and If 1t were not be-
The Portland daily press., 1890-05-12

lieved that the amendment to the interstate
commerce law which Senator German
introduced in the Senate the other
day, would prepare the way for
the accomplishment of this result it
would not have been presented. Though 1t
has for its ostensible object simply to secure
from these Canadian railroads compliance
with the inter state commerce law, and ap-
pears under the specious guise of an effort
to treat all roads doing business between the
West and the Atlantic seaboard with strict
impartiality, the fact that its authors have
been for years laboring to crowd the Canadi-
an railroads out of our territory is calculated
TO create very strong suspicion that they
see IN tia lever which, sooner or later. win
enable them to accomplish their full pur-
pose. They may be mistaken, but the fact
that the American trunk lines are anxious to
exclude the Canadian roads from our terrific
~ ana the further fact that the ir representa-
yves are supporting this amendment fur
nishes ground for serious apprehension on
the part OF the sections OF this country for
whose interest it is that these roads shall
De allowed to continue TO operate their lines
In our territory as heretofore 1t will not do
to t1atter ourselves because no attack has
been made upon the bonding privilege, that
therefore there is no danger. Indirect at
tacks are likely to be more dangerous than
direct ones, because their purpose is not so
| readily discerned, and Their efore they are not
| likely to call out so vigorous an opposition.
