Panama railway and the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company shall not be re-
newed
So hard a question 70 answer has
probably never before been propounded
TO the people connected with the
Southern Pacific Company and that
old-time ally OF the transcontinental
railways, the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company. Free and competitive trans
portation conditions are promised 10
the Pacific Coast permanently and the
situation has therefore become a mat
ter Of the gravest consideration. The
domination of the Oriental trade of the
coastwise trade ef the Pacific Ocean
in Central America and Mexico and
even Of the overland rates OF freights,
eastbound, from the sea 10 hundreds
OF miles inland. is seemingly about lost
10 the great railway and steamship
with brief interruption, been used to
control the commerce, trade and indus
trial life of the Pacific Coast
BY Government control of the Pan
anna railway the United States has
actually a transcontinental road Of its
own to use for the benefit Of all the
people It is not very long road. but
il is complete in itself. extending from
the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean and
having no dependence on any connect
ing line to enable it TO move transcon-
tinental freights and passengers. In all
respects il is able. if administered in
accordance with the interstate COM
Nlerce act, which forbids discrimina-
ton. to serve. in connection with sea
lines. as a rate maker for all other
transcontfnental lines existing or to be
created. II is supposedly as open 10
the use of all carriers who may wish TO
move freights or passengers over it as
the Panama canal ever will be.
In its free and unrestricted operation
il cannot be controlled by the Pacific
Mail Steamship Company and the rail-
WAYS back Of the Pacific Mail Ii can
not be used TO bottle up the commerce of
the United States between the oceans,
for il will soon have no contract with
the Pacific Mail. For years the Pacific
Mail has kept up rate tariff that on
the face of it looked to be lower than
the rail rates. In reality it was skill
fully constructed so that il gave the
business to the transcontinentaI rail-
ways and enabled them to do as they
would
