If the free pass business is broken up

enough people together to hold q

of their last conventions (rearly the

THE WILMINGTON CHAMBER OF COM
MERGE WITH THE RAILROAD
COMMISSION.

The Chamber of Commerce, Of Will
mington, passed a resolution thanking
Messrs. Caldwell and Pearson for the
efforts to protect the merchants and
producers of the State from the ex-
orbitant rates of the railroads and to
bring down such rates to something
like the decline in the prices of the
products upon which these rates are
levied. 1t is q wonder that the mer
chants of Wilmington should have the
cvursge to speak out on this matter
Frequently the merchants of the towns
seem disposed to bow their necks to
the yoke of Pierpont Morgan. The
golden trappings that deck the power
of the corporations have so much gilt
.er that not unfrequently men stant
oil and admire without any sentimen
of resentment or any other sentimen
except envy. If the merchants of vii
mington have got the pluck to stant
in with the farmers, the men who feet
and clothe them, so much the bette
for the city of Wilmington.

The Southern railway bucked nigh
lilly against the Railroad Commission's
order restoring the old freight rates
on cotton on tie Western North Caro-
lima railroad, but the order stands. IL
certainly took a great deaf of cheek for
the railroad company TO ask more for
hauling tive-cent cotton now than il
received fer hauling ten-cent cotton
ten years sgo. The Commission did
right TO restore the old rates. Now lei
it reduce frsight and passenger rate:
generally. Everything else has come
down. Why net railroad rates?
