The Southern Pacitic'S rates, which we're
deemed Iuiuously low, are IS cents to Chi

pany being able to make tile lower rate to
the more distant point by reason Of having
its own line straight through
To meet the San Ia Fes cut TO Chicago the
Southern Pacific must gro rate with its con-
nections east of Ogden. and those VIE know
say that even the 70 cent rate affords
very little picking for those lines.
The action Of the Santa Fe has carried
the fight into the enemy's camp, and unless
the rival roads come together soon the war,
which is now about to start, will be far
