TWO CENT RAILROAD RATE MAY
OPERATE IN THE new STATE

The entering wedge in the move
ment for lower passenger rates on all
railroads in Oklahoma and Indian
Territory and the southwest was start
ed at Eureka Springs, Ark, says the
Oklahoman, when the members of the
Southwestern Passenger Bureau con-
sidered the question Of granting n 2
cent per mile rate on thousand mile
books on Southwestern roads. There
was no definite action on the question,
but it will be the chef topic of con-
sideration of the bureau to be held
before January |, when, it is expect
ed, a decision favorable to the grant
ing of lower rate will be made.
The eastern and northern sections
of the United States are the only ones
to be benefited by lower rates at the
present time and the agitation is now
well under way for a reduction of
rates in the southwest. The sentiment
at Eureka Springs among the mem
bers of the bureau was in favor Of
the reduction, and the reason the mat
Ter was not settled there was because
all the railroad representa- 'es, who
favored the reduction, had not suf.
6cient authority to grant it and had
to refer the matter to their superior
officers.
The principal parties behind this
movement for lower railroad rates
are the commercial travellers organ
ization of st. Louis and the south
west, with a large membership-about
10000 men--who have presented
strong petitions to the Southwestern
Passenger bureau for this reduction.
The plea Of the commercial traveller
is that the man who travels 10000
miles year is entitled to better
rate than the man who travels but lit
tie. In spite of the continued pros
perity Of the railroads Of the south
west, as indicated by the annual re-
ports, there has been no move made
70 reduce passenger fares except for
special occasions, and, according to
the statement of a prominent official
of a commercial travellers organiza-
ton, the travelling men have now
less benefits than formerly. At one
time several lines Of roads out Of st,
Louis had on sale mileage at 2-cent
rate, but this has been withdrawn,
hence the commercial travellers pay
even more for mileage now than they
used to.
According to the report Of the trav-
cling mems committee which was pre-
sented at Eureka Spr!. rs, the prin-
cipal argument made in favor Of re-
duction was the fact that the last
fourteen years have been a time Of
marked prosperity with tho roilroad
companies, From 1895 to 1904 the

mile of line operated have increased
from $6,050 to $9O36, making an in
crease of fifty per cent in nine years.
While it is true that operating cxpen-
ses have also increased, in 1895 the
expense of operation being $40S3
per mile of road, while in 1904 it was
$6,03S, making an increase Of about
fifty per cent in operating expenses,
it is also true that this increase is
more than offset by the fact that the
net income, which was 1916 uer mile
in 1895, has increased to SLAP in
l903-or an increase Of nearly 400
per cent. The total dividends Of the
railroads also show a steady increase
from 1895, when they were 1886 per
mile of line operated, to 1904, when
they reached the sum of 81 l,O46, or
nearly 200 per cent increase.
The St. Louis travelling men also
feel that the rates east and west of
the Mississippi are not property
