have no inclination or desire to become
party to any action that would un-
justly cripple or embarrass any rail-
way company or other corporation.
But it is no more unfair to the rail
roads of this state to have commits
sion than it is unfair to the people of
the state not to have a commission.
Without a commission the railroads
may fix such a rate as they choose and
the people, for all practical purposes,
have no appeal therefrom. On the
other hand, if the commission (when
appointed) fix a rate so low as to be
unjust to the railway company the
railway company can appeal from the
action of the commission to the United
States supreme court, which tribunal
will reverse, modify or set aside the
action of the commission, as was done
in the Burlington railway case in Ne
braska. Very sincerely yours,

Spokane, July 30.-As was predict
ed last week, the railroads have ac-
cepted the invitations of the farmers
of the Palouse and Big Bend countries
to join them in a discussion Of freight
and farming matters with view to
agreeing upon certain reductions of
rates which will be of considerable
value to the raisers of wheat. AS has
been said, the railroad officials seem
to have become alarmed at the deter
mlnatiOn of leading Republicans of the
state to force in the state convention
plank in favor of a railroad commits
sion, and are taking this way of head
ing off the growing sentiment and Of
quoting the farmers. Both President
Hill and President Mellin of the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific roads
nave accepted the invitation of the
wheat growers and have said they
would be present whenever the farm
ers are ready to discuss the matter.
Oi course these men know what the
farmers will ask and they would not
have agreed to go to the trouble of
meeting the people of the grain rails
Ing districts if they did not intend
co make some concessions which will
reduce the cost of shipping the grain.
Ii the meeting is held before the state
convention of the Republican party
the friends of the roads will then claim
that there is no necessity for a rail-
road commission and will ask the con-
VentiOn not to endorse such a measure
which if enacted into law might do
much harm to the roads and in doing
SO injure the development Of the state.
They will claim that the roads in
granting of their own accord reduc-
tlOns to the farmers will have shown
their disposition to help the people
Of the state, and in fact will have
helped them by the voluntary reduc-
tiOns more than a commission could
benefit them in years. 1t is quite
probable, in order to make the effect
of the reductions the more pronounced
that the meeting Of the railroad au-
thorities with the farmers will be
held shortly before the state conyen-
ton, but if it should not be held until
after the state convention it will be
the intention to make a similar plea
to the members of the legislature.
They will be told that when the roads
OF their own volition reduced rates,
those members who were instructed to
vote for railroad legislation will be
released from the necessity of doing
so.

Jones work in Congress has been
unanimously endorsed, all Of which

No question in this state is being so
widely discussed at present as the rail-
road commission bill, and wishing to
understand just where Mr.. Cushman
stood on this question the Tacoma
Ledger elected the following from Mr..
Cushman on the all-absorbing ques-
ton:
Tacoma, Wash, July "a, 1902.
Editor of the Tacoma Ledger,
Sir. l am in receipt Of your favor
of yesterday asking me for a brief ex-
preston of my views relative to the
matter of proposed railway commits
sion in this state. l have no especial
desire to infict my ideas in relation
to this or any other issue upon others;
neither have l any selfish or timid rea-
sons for desiring to conceal my views
when asked for. | am in favor of a
regulatiVe railway commission in this
state, to consist of three members, ap-
pointed by the governor. In making
this brief statement l am mindful Of
the fact that the railways in this state

made before the state convention the
action Of the roads will have a con-
siderable effect on a large number of
the delegates VINO now are in favor of
strong plank in the state platform on
the railroad question, but Governor
Mcbride certainly will not be satisfied.
He has not talked so much about a
reduction of the rate on wheat nor
even that the rate for hauling grain
is excessive. 1t has not been a rate
bill which he has clamored for but
commission bill which will have power
to regulate scores of other matters as
well as freight rates. It is his claim
that he is not working especially for
the farmers of Eastern Washington,
but for all classes of citizens who have
to do with the railroads directly and
indirectly. Therefore he will main
tain in the state convention that no
matter how many reductions the rail-
roads may make in their rates, the
state will still need and will ALWAYS
need railroad commission.

In this connection there is another
matter of interest which may have a
bearing along the same line. At the
last session of the legislature a strong
effort was made to pass a passenger.
rate bill which would have reduced
rates to three cents a mile. 1t was
aimed at the Spokane Falls & North
ern road, which is about the only place
where the reduction would have taken
effect. Now the newspapers are re-
porting that the residents along the
line OF the Spokane Falls & Northern
are preparing a petition asking that
road to reduce the fare from five to
three cents mile. The announcement
also is made that there is reason to
believe that a reduction to at least
four cents will be made and perhaps
to three cents. Many believe that this
is but another effort Of the roads to
quiet the growing agitation in favor of
a railroad commission. It will be re-
membered that the three-cent passen-
ger rate on the main lines in this state
was granted by the roads of their own
accord just prior to the convening of a
session of the legislature 1t seems
quite possible that the managers of
the railroads will do something along
these lines in the next few weeks or
months in order to prevent the legis-
lature from passing the commission
bill. At any rate there is a prospect
OF hot fight between the roads and

Spokane county, taking up a home
stead on Green Bluff prairie, 16 miles
north Of the city. In 1899 Mr.. Doust
