Anyway, we don't believe that the
voters OF this country will ever want to
give up the privilege of voting for hom
they please at the ballot-box without
reference to party or other nominations,
and we don't believe it possible to make
any thing like perfect primary law
without making the primaries the only
place for the people to choose candid
ates.-Primaries and independent can
didates can't be made to ''gee" together
because they represent two entirely
different principles in the exercise of the

RATE BILL IN THE SENATE.
Contest RACES Around One Inn
pOrtant Point.
San Francisco Chronicle.

San Francisco Chronicle.
The crux OF the contest in the senate
over the railroad rate bill is simply as to
whether or not a rate fixed by the Inter
state Commerce commission, after due
hearing, shall become obligatory before 1t
has been passed on by court. 1t is the
same point whose discussion occupied the
attention OF the country all last summer.
Whatever may be the language of any OF
the numerous amendments to the Hepburn
bill which have been suggested, the object
is to continue. as nearly as possible, the
present practice under which railroads
ignore orders of the commission to which
they object until constrained to obey them
by a decree OF the supreme court of the
United States The Hepburn bill permits,
what in fact, congress probably could not
prevent, a court, upon petition of rail-
road. to interfere and enjoin the enforce
ment of a rate, pending hearing by the
courts, but it appears to be recognized
that in future IL will probably be impos-
sible to induce a court to so act against
any rate which any commission would be
likely to make. Consequently the rail-
roads seek to compel the commission, as
now, to take the initiative in going into
court, they remaining on the defensive,
as possible. They do not expect that. but
they wish TO get as near to II possible.
The language of the amendment all
hinges upon two principles which seem to
be recognized as established law under the
constitution OF the United States. First,
no administrative body can have the funo-
ton OF authority OF a court TO enforce it's
orders; and, second. no court can be en-
dowed with the legislative function of fix
ing a rate. II is proposed to evade this
constitutional limit Of the power OF court
by providing, not that It may fix rate,
but that 1t may enjoin the collection OF
such a part OF any rate as It may itself
find to be in excess OF a reasonable" rate,
This is plainly attempting to accomplish
by indireotion that which cannot be law
fully done directly. Courts usually sit down
very hard on such attempts and yet IL this
particular case the contention is so plausl-
BILE that there is a possibility that it might
be sustained. At any rate. IL any such
law were passed, the first thing to be done
would be to test the constitutionality OF
such a provision. which would require some
years.
II Is not always possible from the brief
telegraphic summary OF the character OF
proposed amendments to the Hepburn bill
10 fully comprehend their objects and their
force. To fully understand them they must
be read In connection with their context
in the bill. The foregoing statement OF
the fundamental issues. and of the legal
principles involved. should enable our read
ers to approximate quite closely to what

The next legislature should enact n
law that will prohibit members of the
Board Of Fire and Police Commission
ers from being candidates for political
offices-municipal, county or state, dur
ing their terms. and the filing Of the
name of any police commissioner for
nomination under the primary election
law should vacate his office and make
1t mandatory on the governor TO APP

WHERE THE SHOE PINCHEs.
Purpose of Proposed Amendments DO
the Rate B.ll.


The vital point OF the rate bill before the
senate seems to be the court review clause.
The average layman may not have any
thing like a clear idea OF what this clause
should be, or even what It is proposed by
the several factions to make 1t, but every
friend Of rate legislation will regard with
extreme suspicion any amendment to the
Hepburn bill that is made a condition OF
support by the unquestionable champions
OF railroad interests in the senate.
The Hepburn bill carries the assumption
that the courts have a right to review the
action of the Interstate Commerce conf
mission as to the legality OF the commits
sions orders. But II. in addition to this
inherent right. II is provided that the courts
may also review the facts. then there will
be no gain, so far as this point is con-
cerned. in passing a new law. A sweeping
provision for court review would enable
the railroads to take every rate case into
court and drag it through the tedious pro-
cesses of those institutions and would make
regulation so cumbersome as to be of little
or no value,
The competent powers of the courts are
inherent. There is no need to define by
either limitation or enlargement what those
powers shall be In a specific line of litiga-
ton And when such men as Aldrieh
Elkins. Foraker and Kean demand a Ger.
tain amendment TO the rate bill, no matter
what that amendment may be- It is a pretty
good thing to steer clear of such demand
The country naturally and positively holds
these senators and those Of their thinking
as enemies of true legislation. or any part
Of a law. dictated by them.

A VERY IMPORTANT DECISION

The opinion handed down last Mon
day by the supreme court of the United
States against the Chesapeake & Ohio
and the New York, New Haven & Hart
ford railroads, affirming the authority
of the Interstate Commerce commission
to enforce the adherence of railroads to
their published rates of freight charges.
The opinion was delivered by Justice
White for an undivided bench and lays
down the new and vital principle that
railways cannot deal in the commodi-
ties which they haul over their lines.
The future attitude of the court on this
point is shown by the following para
graph of the opinion: Even If the re-
suit of applying the prohibitions as we
have interpreted them will be to render
it difficult, If not impossible, for car
rier to deal in commodities, this affords
no ground for relieving us of the plain
duty of enforcing the provisions of the
statute as they exist
1t is pointed out that If the courts
sustain the claim of the Interstate COM
mission that private car lines are COM
mon carriers. the principle laid down IN
the opinion of the highest judicial tribu-
| nal may also mean that some of the
owners of refrigerator cars could he
prohibited from using their cars for the
transportation of their products. An
other important point is that the de-
cision bears directly upon the monopo-
| lization of the coal business, both btu
mlnous and anthracite, by the roads
| traverslng Pennsylvania, West Virginia,
Maryland and Virginia, and strikes a
blow at such monopolization as would
appear 10 simplify the whole problem
with which congress and the public are
now struggling. 1t is an admitted fact
that the railroads in the above named
states deal in the greater part Of the
coal they haul. They own most OF the
mines and operate them, so that the
product which they handle is their
property absolutely. II is therefore per-
fectly plain that the supreme court de-
cision applies 10 them. II is also made
clear that the anthracite coal roads, even
when they own the mines. can be en-
Joined from so cutting the price of coal
as to discriminate against the indie
