Fort Worth gazette. [volume] (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1891-1898, 1892-02-03

As lumber averages about 81, 600 pounds,
instead of q minimum of 10000 pounds, the
reduction in our revenue per car would of
course be much greater than the foregoing
figures, which are based on the minimum
weight. Notwithstanding the fact that the
reduction in the through rates from South
ern Pacific mills to points on our line were
made to permit those mills to meet compe-
tition with the Texas and Pacific mills and
in the direct interest and on the demand Of
the Southern Pacific mills and Hous ton and
Texas Central railway, and in the face Of
the fact that the Fort Worth and Denver
City railway has no interest whatever in
placing Southern Pacific lumber on its line
IN competition with Texas and Pacific lum-
Der at less revenue than it derives from
lumber coming from Texas and Pacific
mills, and the further fact that the Texas
and Pacific mills are fully able to supply
all the demand for lumber on our line, you
have in the adjustment Of divisions be-
tween the Southern Pacific and the Hous-
ton and Texas Central railway and this
company, not only forced the Fort Worth
and Denver to stand every cent of the re-
duction in the through rate but compelled
them to stand an additional shrinkage in
their revenue in the amount of the in
creased proportion which you have allowed
the Houston and Texas Central and the
Southern Pacific railways out of the re-
duced rates in excess of what they were re-
ceiving out of much higher rates in effect
previous to the PRONUNCIATION of your
tariffs. will cite only few instances in
verifcation of this statement, although it
applies equally IS well to every station on
our line:
Fort Worth gazette. [volume] (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1891-1898, 1892-02-03

Here we have presented two freight tar
ifs promulgated by the railway commission
Of Texas, necessarily presenting identically
The same freight propositions TO be consld-
cred in their formation and necessarily
bearing the same relation to each other on
traffic moved or interchanged between the
Texas lines. This statement will not even
permit Of argument in refutation of 1t, for
any Texas school child can readily perceive
that if the revenue provided in the two
tariffs for corresponding hauls on any one
line is relatively just, it follows as an ALSO
lutte condition beyond dispute that the same
relative conditions should apply on business
iuterchanged between connecting lines of
railways, the presumed revenue condition
Is between the different commodities hay
ing been preserved in the commissions

GiJions between the commissions two tar
ills on business interchanged between
Texas lines are diametrically antagOnistic,
the one to the other, and will proceed to
demonstrate this TO be the truth. should
have used the word fact instead of truth,
but the chairman Of the commission doesn't
like facts, so / Will respect his preiudiceS
against them.
My readers will carefully observe that
the commissions. tariff 10. l provides.
When any freight included in this tariff
shall be carried over two or more railroads,
not under the same control, the rates shall
be determined by adding together the
charges Of the several railroads, or parts Of
railroads, as prescribed in this tariff for the
respective distances such freight IS carried
over each and deducting from the sum
twenty per cent. provided that the rate thus
obtained shall in no case exceed the maxi
mum rate provided for in this tariff. The
Joint rate thus ascertained may be divided
between roads over which freight is trans
ported in such proportions as may be agreed
upon between such roads Whereas, com
MISSIONS tariff No. specifies that its mile
age rates shall apply between all stations
in Texas" without any saving proviso as in
tsriff No. l that on business interchanged
between connecting lines, the sums OF the
locals, less twenty per cent, shall make the

To the people Of Texas: The above head

Tle of the state of Texas. In il the COM
mission is arraigned on one Of three counts,
either of them serious in their gravity, and

biIity he assumes in presenting so grave a
charge for the consideration of the people,
and the absolute necessity Of presenting
mdeniable truths as evidence in support OF
it and for his justification; and he viii

whether the most or least charitable of the
counts shall stand.
me most vital question before the people
of the state today is that they should
form an intelligent opinion as TO what eI-
feet the commission has upon the pros
perity of the state. The question interests
every man, woman and child owning dol

well as those who want to be owners, and

The foregoing figures demonstrate the
fact that you consider any one line enjoy
ing the entire haul and consequent gross
rate entitled to 80 per cent more revenue
than you consider any two lines entitled to
for a corresponding haul; and furthermore
that You consider It equitable and just that
any one line enjoying the haul OF eighty
miles should &c entitled to 1-l0th of a cent
per 100 pounds more revenue than you con-
slider line which has to participate In
division of rate entitled to for q 441-mile
haul.
have no doubt when you read this you
will proclaim it to be ridiculous, and deny
your OWE tariff, the same as you did in my
argument before you, giving a practiced
illustration of the working of your original
commodity tariff No. on grain, etc. But
little mature digestion viii convince you
that the figures 1 have quoted are abso-
lutely correct. They oughu to be, at least,
as they are taken from your own publica-
lions.
Your honorable commission has publicly
announced that the railroads had nothing
whatever to do with protecting the com
mercial or competitive interests of the
country, and you have further publicly an
nounce6 that your straight mileage rates
are based on the principle that every CON-
mercial location should be entitled to the
benefit arising from the advantages there
from. and that the railroads should receive
compensation according to the service per-
formed, and that they had no right to tax
legitimate industries on their line by re-
ducing their revenue in order to enable
more distant and less favored commercial
locations to enter into competition.
Let US see if you have not, in practice,
stultifed the very principle which you pro-
claim in justification OF your straight
MILEAGE basis; in the first place we will
take jefferson, Tex, 1875 miles from Fort
Worth, as representing an average haul on
lumber from Texas and Pacific mills to
Fort Worth. In order to put the Southern
Pacific mills, including Beaumont, on q
competitive basis with the Texas and Pa
cific mills, you have made Houston mileage
instead of Beaumont mileage apply on lum-
Der from Beaumont to points on your line,
thereby depriving the Texas and Pacific
mills of that advantage of location which
the advocacy of your own principle should
accord them; but furthermore in the second
place, wantoAly and recklessly depriying
the Fort Worth and Denver City railway OF
that legitimate revenue which It should de-
rive. had you put your principle in practice
that line should receive revenue according
to the service performed. We will verify
this statement by still further figures, Of
which you were fully cogniZant as verified
in the foregoing correspondence, aud will
give you a comparison of the revenue which
you have forced us to accept on lumber
from Southern Pacific mills, delivered US
enue we at present derive on lumber from
Texas and Pacific mills delivered US at Fort
Worth.
