Railroad Rate Legislation.

Testiyfing before the Senate Commit
tee at Washington, Interstate Com
MERGE Commissioner Prouty said in
discussing the proposition to give to
that Commission the power to regulate
railway rates:
81 think the railways should make
their own rates. 1 think they should
be allowed to develope their own bust
ness. ] have never advocated any law,
and | am not now in favor of any law,
which would put the rate making
power into the hands of any commits
sion or any ocurt. While it may be
necessary to do that some time, while
that is done in some states at the pres
ent time, while it is done in some
countries, am opposed to it. NINA
The railway rate is property. 1t is all
the property that the railway has got.
The rest of its property is not good for
anything unless it can charge rate.
Now it has always seemed to me that
when a rate was fixed, if that rate was
an unreasonable rate, it deprives the
railroad company of its property pro

should confscate the property of rail
road; it is not necessary that you
should say that it shall not earn three
or four Der cent. When you put in g
rate that is inherently unreasonable
you have deprived that compan of it,
rights, of its property, and the circuit
court of the United States has jurisdic
ton under the fourteenth amendment
TO restrain that. ****I have looked a
these cases great many times, and
can only come to the conclusion tina
railroad company is entitled t.
charge a fair and reasonable rate, an,
if. any order of the commission, if an
statute of a state legislation take
away that rate, the fourteenth amend
, ment protects the railway company. {"
