HkYBURN'S RATE
REGULATION VIEWS
The Senator has been misrepresented, and
is more Radical than Roosevelt.

Some newspapers have recently
been trying to place Senator Hey
burn in false light with respect
to the proposed railway rate legis-
iation, and to give the idea that he
is not in harmony with the method
favored by President Roosevelt.
This is very unfair to the Idaho
Senator for the reason that Pres
ident Roosevelt has no settled plan
of rate regulation. The President
is in favor of some kind OF rairoad
rate regulation, and SO is Senator
Senator Hepburn, but as the Pres
ident has not yet signiied his de-
sired bill, it is most unfair to say
that Senator Hepburn is not in ac-
cord with the President on this
matter. On the other hand it must
be remembered that Senator Hey
burn last year introduced a bill for
the control Of railroads which was
considered much more radical than

the Esh- Townsend bill or any other
prominent bill of that character
1t is very likely that the views Of
the President and Senator Heyburn
are almost identical on this line,
and if there is any difference it is
probable that Hepburn believes in
more stringent regulation than
Roosevelt does.
Hepburn and French have been
extremely lucky this session in
securing good seats Senator Hey
burn has a seat formerly occupied
by Senator Platt Of Connecticut
and is considered one of the very
best on the Republican side. This
is probab y the most conspicuous
seat ever held by any Senator from
the Northwest MIR. French drew
a seat in the center Of the Repub-
lican side OF the House and within
a very few feet of some of the dis
tinguished leaders, and also short
distance of his former seat.
