who paid the freight. 1t was a mat
ter of life or death TO the business in
terests of the state. 1t was not an
imaginary grievance. 1t had long ex-

weary of the burden. They must
shake it off if they expected to keep

states.
Outsiders Reap Profits
Outsiders were robbing the whole
saIers of Illinois of the business that
rightfully belonged to them. They
had been doing it for years. The one
remedy was the bringing down of
rates on level with those enjoyed in
other states. The people at first did
not appreciate the Importance of the
agitation for an alteration of freight
rates. but Mr.. Mueller said that today
they were aroused to the point where
no longer deaf ear could be turned
to their demands.
G.. W. McCaskrin followed with
short address. in which he stated re-
Iiaf had been found in petitioning the
general assembly TO change the stat
