HEPBURN OF IOWA
INTRODUCES RATE BILL

Washington, Jan. 5.--RepresentatiVe
Hepburn of Iowa has introduced his
railroad rate bill, which has been anx-
ious1y awaited, as Mr. Hepburn is
chairman of the interstate and foreign
commerce committee of the house.
The bill is similar to the Dolliver bill
and embraces in modified form many
features of the measure recently pre-
pared by the interstate commerce COM
mission. It is more comprehensive
than any measure yet introduced and
IN Mr.. Hepburn's opinion It Is so
framed that it will satisfactorily regu-
late refrigerator cars, do away with
midnight tariffs and abolish other
alleged iniustices aimed at by the
pending bills. The bill increases the
Interstate commerce commission to
nine members and fixes the annual
salary Of each at $4,000. Its most
essential departure from the other
bills is inaits greatly enlarged defni-
ton Of Transportation rs used in the
act. X s2 ~ = ~. s :: s Il:

may raise questions which will cause
irritation it is not believed this will
prevent a final and satisfactory settle

desires this and. while her action will

Position of Massachusetts on Tariff
Question Explained.


Question Explained. -
Boston, Jan. 5.-Curtis Guild. Jr., of
Boston was inaugurated governor of
Massachusetts during the day. In his
inaugural address he defined the atti-
tude of Massachusetts, in demanding
a reduction in tariff and more friendly
trade treaties. He said: "
Through the conventions of. her
two great parties, through her general
court and governor, Massachusetts has
already demanded from the national
government the immediate construc-
ton of tariff framed to meet the
lines Of modern competition. Massa-
chusetts asks the removal of such du-
ties as are now needless; the reduc-
ton Of such duties as were once just
but now are excessive aEa the devel-
opment, not Of our commerce alone,
but Of the commerce of the United
States, by more friendly trade treaties
with other nations. Massachusetts,
asks no exclusive faVors.
Massachusetts stands at the eoun-
ell board Of the nation not as a broken
beggar, whimpering for aims but as a
strong man demanding aggressive &C.
ton from his peers" = 4: 4
