Should he tell the whole or only part of
that story? Nothing would have induced
him TO mention Dona Zarifa's name in
connection with the final tragedy when
speaking of it to Morell, but these were
his nearest friends and relatives. Was
it not right that he should let them know
the full greatness of his obligations? So
he told the whole story, and never was

STATE AFFAIRS

interest.
Salt Rates.

A complaint from the Hutchinson
Salt company is filed with the state
board of railroad commissioners, claim
ing that salt rates are made from Mich
igan to Kansas points SO low that the
aggressive competition of the Michigan
salt fields is successful and oppressive,
not only in the states and territories ad-
jacent to Kansas, but in the state of
Kansas itself and at points very near to
the works of the complainant. This un-
Just competition is possible because OF
the high rates charged for hauling its
salt from its works to points in Kansas,
although it is not more expensive to de-
PENDANT roads to haul Kansas salt than
Michigan salt.
1t is alleged that in September, 1890,
the defendant roads entered into joint
tariff between themselves to transport
salt from Chicago to points in Kansas at
from 5 to mills per ton per mile, while
they charge compliments for transport
ing salt to the same points from to 80
mills per ton per mile for the same kind
of shipments, and the difference is ap-
proximately the same in all shipments of
salt from St. Louis and Mississippi river
points in Kansas would still be greater
in favor of Michigan fields.
The complainant does not say that the
rates from Michigan are too low, but
that the rates of freight charged COM
plainant to points in Kansas are unjust,
unreasonable and too high, and that it
is discrimination against the Hutchin-
son salt field and against domestic in
dustries.
The complainant prays that the board
of railroad commissioners reduce the
rate of freight on salt shipped by COM
plainant in Kansas to the same rate per
ton per mile the defendant roads charge
foreign shippers to points in Kansas;
also to the same rates charged per ton
per mile from Chicago, St Louis and
Mississippi river to points in Kansas.
The rate per ton per mile is shown to
be on the average over twice as great
from Hutchinson as from Chicago. The
hauls from Hutchinson average from
one-half to three fonrths as long as from
Chicago.
The petition sets up that the business
of the company, reaching 300 barrels
day, has been reduced nearly one-half
because of the unfair rate discrimination
allowing unjust competition from salt
fields 1000 miles away.
