NATURAL ROUTE TO THE SEA

The interior Of Idaho, so long neg
lected by the railroad companies, seems
now In the very center Of western rail-
road development. Transcontinental
lines seeking Pacific terminals find in
the neglected Idaho routes the very
best highways to the coast. The routes
across Idaho are shorter and the grades
better than those chosen by the old
trunk lines when they built across the
mountains and on to the seaboard. The
valleys Of the Clearwater, the Salmon
and the Snake present the most FEAST
BILE routes for trans-continental traffic;
they are the natural highways, for COM
merce in traversing the Pacific north
west. Modern railroading demands the
most direct route and the route Offer
ing the least resistance in the matter of
grades. This il found in the natural
waterways to the sea, hence the de-
mand for rights of way along the rivers
In the interior Of Idaho.

positively affirms: There is no hitch.

The interview has lasted just two

LAW AND ENFORCEMENT.

The country is not so much in neet
OF law as the enforcement Of law, ant
the attitude of the national administra
ton on the enforcement OF law is tn,
most potent thing in the question O
railroad regulation. 1t is apparent tina
the department Of justice has resolved
to make more energetic effort to en-.
force the federal laws prohibiting re.
bates and unfair determinations in in.
terstate commerce. This resolution I,
In every way to be commended. Il
contemplates the vital point of thu
whole business which is enforcement o,
the law. For after legislation has ex.
hausted Its power and its enginuity, the
real task in reaching the ends at which
legislation aimed will still remain to b.
performed tho task of actually en-.
forcing the laws.
Much OF the popular discussion
which has been in progress for q year
and u going on now, proceeds on the
assumption that there are no laws on
the statute books prohibiting rebates
and wrongful determinations, or that
such laws al are on the statute books
bearing on those evils amount to little
Or nothing. There are innumerable de-
1nands heard for more law, more law,
more law, and in fact most Of them
are Tor laws. which are today as for
years they have been, actually on the
federal statute books. The very things
which 30 many clamor to have pro-
hibited have long been penalty pro-
hibited.
In other words the gist of the ques-
tion u not legislative at all but admin
istrative. Il - up to the department Of
Justice to start its machinery and en-
force the laws against rebates and
wrongful determinations. Now when
the administration 10 bestirring itself
and the compass OF 1.-The Elkins law is
being felt there II awholesome respect
tor the existing legislation and gen.
eral movement on the part of the rail-
roads themselves to help in the correc-
tion o. these abuses.
II may be that these laws need to be
strengthened by further legislation. No
doubt they can be. But the public
should not forget that there 10 legisla-
ton that II In great measure effective
