the retarding of progression in
all lines of State development
and the consequent loss to the
railroads of the additional bust
ness that would necessarily fol-
low more liberal policy on the
part of the transportation lines.
1t is proverbial that large
bodies move slowly and it is not
to be expected that any change
in the settled policy of the South
ern Pacific toward this State will
be made unless the protest
against its continuance assumes a
more aggressive and concerted
form than previous attempts
along this line have taken. Pro-
tests have been filed many times
with the under officials of the
company. Committees have
waited, hat in hand, on the traffic
managers and have humbly
thanked these august personages
when suavely informed that their
complaints would be filed with
the circumlocution Office for
future consideration. 1t is true
that certain concessions have
been made in isolated cases,
notably on low grade ores, gar
den produce, etc, and these
crumbs have been thrown out as
evidence of the generosity of the
corporation and its mindfulness
of the needs of a struggling and
undeveloped section. The agents
of the company wax eloquent
when pointing out these cases,
but grow ominously silent when
confronted with the figures which
show the proportion that these
concessions bear to the aggregate
paid annually by the people of
the State.
Any attempt to alter present
conditions must be along differ
ent lines from that which has OBJ
tanned in the past. Ample funds
must be provided to carry the
complaints to the courts of last
resort. The work must be plac-
ed in the hands Of some one who
is prepared to fight to a finish.
Nevada shippers must go into
the contest, not as suppliants for
a favor, but as citizens demand
ing their rights. They must not
permit themselves to be placated
with mere concessions or vague
promises, but insist upon a posi-
tive declaration on the part of
the company as to its policy to-
ward the State.
There is a formidable weapon
now in the hands of every i'm
porter and exporter in the State
that could be used with telling
effect, and that is the routing of
the freight over competing lines
beyond the territory now under
the Southern Pacific monopoly. If
every shipper in Nevada were to
order his freight shipped over
competing lines to Ogden instead
of over those roads owned or
controlled by the Hartman syn
dictate, there would very shortly
come radical change in present
conditions.-Reno Journal.

Object to Jurist Going to California.
Carson, New, May 2l-The attorneys
of Nevada may unite in protest
against the petition of the California
delegation in Congress. which accord
ing to dispatch from Washington. has
requested that Judge Hawley, of the
Nevada Federal Circuit, be transferred
TO California until the insurance liti-
CATION incident to the fire be disposed of.
The attorneys say there is much inn
portant work now pending in the Ne
vada district and that at the last term
several cases were laid over uutil July
on account of the crowded condition of
the docket. If the Californians press
their petition, Nevada will probably be
heard from in the matter
