The Merchants Association, Of San
Francisco, Runs Against Snag
When it Tries to Fix the
Railroad Rates.

The largest organization of busi-
ness men on the Pacific Coast is the
Merchants Association of San Fran
cisco. 1t includes practically all re-
tail dealers of the largest city on
the Pacific Coast, and also has on its
roll many large wholesale houses.
This body was instituted originally
to secure better municipal condi-
tions. AS its scope broadened it en-
braced wider field of activity and
its deliberations cover many sub
jects of moment to business men. In
addition to its purely mercantile
numbers, many individuals in pro-
tessional classes have Joined its
membership.
Some time ago, when it was pro-
posed in some quarters to give the
making of all transportation rates
to the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion, these united merchants, includ-
ing hundreds of firms and corpora
tions, found an emergency confront
ing them which it was at once their
interest and duty to the Pacific
let which has ust been received, is
the test of declara tions made by
them. They adopted resolutions,
the text of two of which is as fol-
lows:
"Resolved, That the Merchants
Association of San Francisco, while
expressing the highest respect for
and confidence in, personally and
collectively, the members of the In
terstate Commerce Commission, re-
specttully urges that no Legislation
be adopted whereby said Commits
sion would be given the arbitrary
right to make rates, as expedient and
not to the advantage of business in
terests of this community, and that
| we recommend in lieu thereof that
the Commission be increased to
seven members, and that, in view of
the vast commercial interests in
volved and the difference governing
transportation on the Pacific Coast
and in the northwest, that the two
members thus added to the Commits
sion should be appointed, one from
the Pacific Coast, and one from the
northwest, so that all geographical
sections of the country would be
represented, and, be it further
"Resolved, That the law under
which the Commission is at present
operating is, in our Judgment, a
proper one, if proper measures are
taken to expedite the hearing OF
cases upon which would contem-
plate the establishment OF Court
of Transportation, whose decision
would be final, except in cases where
the constitute of the decree
was questioned"
The Association also resolved that
"the interests of this Coast will best
be served by leaving the authority
to make rates where it now is, in the
hands of the carriers, who are ia
miliar with the exceptional condi-
tions on the Pacific Coast and the
Northwest, subject to review by the
Interstate Commerce Commission
upon complaint OF the shipper who
feels that given rate is wrong"

 Mrs. Buice, an employe at the Bessie Minge Cotton Mill in this city, died yesterday. The body was taken to Att lanta for burial.
 The past few days have been most favorable to farm work, and farmers have been making good use of it. In many sections very little work has been possible for the past month on account of the soil being too boggy. and the grass would have soon smoth- cred corn and cotton. If clear weather continues a week longer planters will be able to get their crops in fair con dition. and prospects will be increased at least 25 per cent.

courressmau on Movement to Extend
 Cotton Markets.
 Florence. June 2-(Special )-Colo- neI A. A. Wiley Is in the city today, having come up from Montgomery 10 deliver the address before tne grao- uating class of the State Normal COT lege.
 Colonel Wiley represents the Second Alabama District in Congress. He IS deeply interested in the industrial de- yelopment of the South and will visit the Orient with Secretary Tafts Con- gressional party While travelling in the East he will make careful study of the requirements of those people which may be advantageously supplied from Southern markets.
 Colonel Wiley said: ''The movement inaugurated at New Orleans which re- suited in an urgent request to Presi- dent Roosevelt for the cooperation Of the government in the extension or our cotton markets through a special com- mission appointed for this purpose, Is one which should be pressed to suc- cessful conclusion. Such aid to the producers and manufacturers of cotton would be in line with the work or the government in encouraging the devel- opmmt and extension or many other American industries.
 "rhe progress of events In the East will necessarily result in much closer relationships between our people and the Chinese; and such wise modifica- tions should be made in our immigra- tion laws as will promote friendliness and encourage trade with these people and yet safely guard against the im- migration to this country of hny un- desirable clements of an alien race.
 "The opening of the Panama canal will bring the South into greater prominence and advantageous posi- tion; and our people should carefully study Eastern trade conditions and de- mand and be prepared to promptly im- prove the wonderful opportunities which this new route to the East and the new conditions there will afford.
 T believe MT. Erister Ashcraft of your city was the author of the New Orleans movement for wider markets; and his appointment as a member of the committee of that great convention of farmers to present the question to the President. and his recent appoint ment as Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Trade Relations from the American Cotton Manufacturers' Asso- citation. are strong evidences of the universal favor with which this prop osition is received.

"A short crop is bad enough at best. but this year 1t Is coupled with the ad- dItional misfortune of low prices for market produce. There will be, am afraid but few market gardeners who will make money this year and there may be a number of them who will lose money"
 Tt has been an especially bad year for peaches. Less than one-fourth or q full crop will be gathered. Because of inc cold the crop Is great disap- nointment. In the suburbs of the city there is a splendid orchard, owned py inc Spring Hill Orchard Company. very few peaches will be gathered oy the company from its trees this year.
 "ordinarily both peaches and straw berries do we'll in Mobile County. we shinned last year twenty-five car loads of Strawberries, but this year as In the case of peaches the strawberry crop has been quite small. But so Tar as . =, informed Mobile County is not alone in having a short crop of vegetables aud fruits.

This condition VIII not affect Mobile county which Is finely suited for the cuitiva- tion of vegetables and of fruits.
