COLORADO FREIGHT
RATES DISCUSSED

Washington. May 9.-The Industrial
commission yesterday listened to n
statement from c. ID. Griffith of the
Denver Chamber of Commerce, who
read document prepared by the
chamber, complaining of freight rate
discrimination against the city on the
part of the railroad companies. 1t
was reported that this practice grows
largely out of the fact that the Missouri
is made the base of western rates.
The opinion WAS expressed that this
base should be moved westward to the
longitude of Denver
The Chamber of Commerce also
made complaint of Instability of rail
road rates, and n plea was made for
uniform and stable charges. Mr. Grif-
fifth said the rate from New York and
Chicago TO Denver is about the same
ms the rate from those cities to San
Francisco and that the rate-from Den
Yer to san Francisco is no lower than
that from New York and Chicago to
San Francisco. He also said that not
withstanding the fact that Denver Is
600 miles nearer Idaho and Montana
than Missouri river points, Denver's
freight rate to those states is only one
fifth less. Also 1t was true that goods
could be shipped to San Francisco and
back to Utah at Il lower freight rate
than the same goods could be shipped
to Denver and then be shipped to
Utah

ferson readily accepted and proposed
a dollar as the unit and the largest
silver coin; q gold coin OF $40 value,
a silver coin Of the value OF one-tenth

value Of one-hundredth OF dollar. He
suggested three other coins for the
convenience Of making change-a sill

and copper twentieth. 1t remained
only to invent easy names for these
coins, which was done in due time.
This currency was not adopted with
out vigorous persistence on the part of
Jefferson. both In and ont OF Congress.
Robert Morris, the first man In Ameri-

opposed the suggestion of his nephew
because people were familiar with the
English money and did not want n
change. Jefferson desired to apply the
decimal system to all measures "When
