San Joaquin Valley 10 this city the raisin-
grower could get 8 dried fruit to New
York for considerably less than the Gen.
trail Pacific charges. The 800 or 400 miles
from the main points on the Southern
Pacific road will cost the rasin.grower as
much as the entire distance from San
Francisco to New York. But there has
been something gained. The dollar
hundred pounds rate would not have been
given had there been no competition.
When the San Joaquin Railroad is COM
pleted rates will be reasonable from points
