FAVOR THE AMENDED BILL.
Shippers Are Realizing That It IL q
Mighty Good Measure.

Topeka Herald: Sentiment toward
the railroad bill which passed the
senate last week seems to be changing
as the shippers become more familiar
With its provisions and the prospects
for an agreement between tho con-
ference committees appointed by the
house and senate are growing.
One OF the first prominent friends
OF the shippers organization to come
to this conclusion was J. W. Robson,
generally regarded as the FederatiOn's
representative on the Board OF rail-
road commissioners. His views have
attracted wide attention.
In speaking Of the matter this
morning, Senator j. E. Brewer Of Abb
lene, who has been one Of the sup
porters of the bill as it passed the
senate said: II am glad to see the
osition Mr.. Robson has taken and 1t
is only an evidence Of the truth Of my
first opinion that the people Of the
state will approve OF the amended bill
when they are thoroughly informed
as to its provisions. Mr.. Robson 10
absolutely frank in his statement and
his opinions are entitled to grave con-
sideration by those who are attempt
ing to create the impression that the
house bill is the only measure that
will afford relief. He has been and 10
now a heavy shipper. He wants
beneficial railroad legislation as we
al do. He has studied the bill care
fully and says it is great improve
ment over the presentlaw. l am sat
isfied that when the people Of the
state study the bill they will come
the same conclusion.
