rnr1eHr Export DlscRInIHAz1oM.
Railroads Must Not Garry Goods Cheaper
for Foreigners Than for Americans.


WASHINGTON, Aug 28.-The Interstate
Commerce Com mi IssIon to- day. In an opinion by
Commissioner Prouty. announced its decision
In the important case involving relative rates
on export and domestic traffio In grain and
grain products. The Com ission holds that In
| the absence OF some Qualifying reason 1t would
| not be right for American railroads to perma-
| nently transact business for foreigners at .
less rate than that for which they render cor
responding service TO American citizens. As
| to rates on expert and domestic shipments OF
| grain the Commission decides:
| Market conditions sometimes In case OF
wheat, hut seldom In case OF corn may justify
an export rate through tho port OF New York
| some hat lower than the domestic rate. and
Philadelphia. Baltimore. Norfolk and Newport
News usually take rates which are certain
dfrerentials below the New York rate on both
domestic and export traffic. During the period
OF closed lake navigation the export and
domestic grain rates to New York and the
other ports mentioned should ordinarily be
tho samo. Rntes to other ports. including
Boston and ports on the Atlantic north OF
Boston. and Galveston. New Orleans and other
Gulf ports. may perhaps be properly made
lower on export than OH domestic trafflc to
enable them to compete for tho export busi-
ness.
Such an adjustment OF rates would be to the
advantage Of the carrier and Just alike to the
American consumer and the America pro-
ducer But export grain rates should not be
less to the ssahoard from any point than from
any intermediate point on the same iue."
As to tho rates on export -four as compared
with ex port wheat. the commission holds and
decides as follows:
Public policy and good railway policy alike
seem to require the same rate on export wheat
and export -four but the duties OF tho COM
mission are confined to Administering the Act
to Regulate Commerce. and. in view Of all the
conditions shown in the investigation, a some
what higher rate on export -four than OH ex-
port wheat is not in violation OF that statute
The published differences in rates 10 too wide.
and the ratio on -four for export should not ex-
ceed that upon EXPORT wheat by more than
cents per 100 pounds.
1t further appeared that carriers engaged
in the TRANSFORMATION OF export -four from
Minneapolis at a rate which Is Ia cents less.
than the domestic rate to the port 0t export
refuse to make any corresponding concession
to intermediate millers The commission rules
that this is unjust and unla wfu discrim in alton
against such intermediate traffic, and that
whatever line participates in such lower ex-
port rate on -four from Minneapolis must
make corresponding rate uI.on similar traffic
from intermediate points.

IN THE very starting of the county of Cochise gang of cor morants fastened themselves upon the new county and bankrupted it. As result the county of Cochise is today staggering under a load ot debt which will be burden for a generation or more. It is to pre- vent such condition in Santa Cruz that THE Oasis has taken up the cudgels. When it is recalled that Cochise paid less than eighteen hundred dollars for five jail cells while Santa Cruz contracted to pay thirty five hundred for four cells, the inference is that had the same rate of extravaganza prevailed all the way through, Santa Cruz would have been i'll worse fix than is Cochise. Yet there were honest men in the first Cochise county board of supervisors. But they were controlled by rascals.
