RATES TO THE WEST.
Continued from First Page.)


of course there is no doubt that the
railway company makes profit on the
long haul to Los Angeles and San
Francisco at the lower rate. 1t would
therefore make still greater profit
on the shorter haul-eight hundred
to twelve hundred miles shorter-to
Ell Paso at the same rate. And if Ell
Paso pays the same rate as Los An
geles or San Francisco, it is certainly
granting the railway company all the
protection against water competition
mat can be Tairly and reasonably de-
handed. Then if Ell Paso and Los
Angeles were granted, as they are now
granted, the same distributive mileage
rates, they would have nequal chance,
as far as freight rates are concerned
to secure trade in the intermediate ter
rllory.
The transportation committee of the
chamber of commerce recently decided
that the chairman shouIu address a let
ter to the general freight agents of the
various railways entering Ell Paso, re-
questing that Ell Paso be given distrip-
ullve rates which would enable her JOB
bers to reach points midway between
Ell Paso and common points in Cali
lorna, dorado and Texas. This is GER
tainly reasonable request To grant
this request as appued to the territory
between Ell Paso and Los Angeles, the
Southern Pacific company must either
give Ell Paso the Pacific terminal rate
in, or it must give Ell Paso a distribu-
tive mileage rate out correspondingly
lower than is given Los Angeles"
