Railroad Rate Act.

Judged by any standard, the railroad
rate act is the most important single
piece Of legislation passed by any recent
Congress. The Interstate Commerce
Commission, which will administer the
law. is enlarged, the term OF the men,
bers is extended to seven years, and
their compensation is increased.
The meaning of the term common
carrier" is extended to include express
companies, and the meaning of ''trans-
portation' to include private car lines
and elevators which are instruments in
transportation.
Upon complaint of shipper, and
after full hearing, the commission
may fix maximum freight rate in the
case under consideration. That rate
will take effect in thirty days after it is
promulgated, and will remain IN effect
two years, unless sooner modified by
the commission or set aside by the
courts, to which the railroads or other
common carriers may appeal,
Common carriers must furnish trans
portation facilities to all alike without
discrimination. Their rates must be
conspicuously posted along the lines
and filed with the commission as public
documents. Copies OF all contracts
with other carriers must also be filed
with the commission.
The giving or receiving Of rebate or
discrimination is absolutely prohibited.
violation Of this provision or of any
one OF. those already mentioned, is pun
ishable by extremely heavy fines, to
which imprisonment may be added.
Another important provision of the
act is that which makes the books and
records of the railroads at all times
accessible to the commission, and
Furnishes, by heavy penalties, any false
entries or mutilation.
Regarded as whole, the act takes ar
exceedingly broad view Of the duties o.

. Grave doubts have also been ex-
pressed by lawyers as to whether there |
is sufficient provision in the direct
primary law for selecting Presidential
electors, and this question may yet
have to be taken into the courts for
solution. The law makes no direct
allusion to the method to be employed
in nominating Presidential electors,
but it is held by some lawyers and
among them one who took a part IN
framing the law that the phraseology
to be found in section . of the act,
providing that primary elections shall
be held to nominate a "Senator in
Congress and all other elective state,
district. comfy, precinct, city, ward
and all other officers aud delegates to
any constitutional convention or con-
ventions that may hereafter be called"
makes sufficient provision in the words
"all elective officers" But whether it
does or not is not clear to all.
AS to the method of choosing dele
gates to the National convention, how
ever, there is no provision. The law
deals directly with the nomination OF
candidater for Federal, state, district
county and municipal officers, and
leaves the question of National con-
ventions and delegates thereto entirely
alone.
Thus far the only remedy suggested
is that the parties by their own initia-
tive and expense will have to agree
upon some sort Of system whereby
county conventions may be held, dele
gates elected to state convention and
the National delegates selected by the
state convention. The only kind OF
county convention practicable under
this arrangement wonld be mass con-
ventions, for to hold delegated county
conventions would necessitate elections.
unless the various precincts in the
counties, were to hold mass conventions,
OF their own, and at these elect dele
gates to a.county convention, which, in
turn. would send delegates to the state
convention, where the National dele
gates would be elected.
That some method of this kind will
have to be adopted is practically certain,
for it would be out of the question,
lawyers think. to undertake to burden
the primary ballots with candidates for
delegates, and in the absense of any
provisions for such, proceedings it is
practically certain that the county
clerks OF. the state would refuse to put
the names OF the candidates on the
allot.-Portland Telegram.

This is the startling and peculiar de-
mand made upon the editor of the Ore,

The editor of the Journal is unreason-
able. Why can't he quarrel with his
neighbor without making an excessive
demand like that? Why doesn't he
call Mr.. Scott liar, instead of asking
him to tell the truth?
The Journal style is serious infrac.
