Point at Issue in the Rate Contro-
verSy.

The controversy over rate legislation in the
Senate hinged entirely on the constitutional
question whether Congress has power to pass
law comforting upon the Interstate Com
merce Commission the right to fix the rates
for interstate transportation, aud at the same
time to deny TO the courts the right of
issuing temporary injunctions against the en-
forcement OF such rates. Senators Bailey,
La Toilette, Carmack and others. supported
the affirmative, and Senators Foraker, Knox,
Lodge, Aldrich, and others, the negative side
of this question. The Bailey amendment to
the Hepburn bill expressed the views OF the
s'limited revisionists," and the Foraker bill
those of the abroad revisionists. The &C.
ceptance of the Bailey amendment and the
rejection of the abroad court review have the
same basis, which is, that the Fifth Amend
meut of the Constitution fixes the limit, be-
yond which Congress cannot go IN fixing
rates, at the point where the rates established
by the Commission would amount to taking
private property for public use without just
compensaton;" and that if inferior courts had
Jurisdiction to set aside such rates temporarily
by forbidding their enforcement prior to the
final hearing and determination of the ease,
by means Of preliminary injunctions, the rail.
roads would abuse the right of litigation, and
the public would suffer from their extortons;
whereas if the inferior courts we're denied the
right to issue such injunetions, the people
would be protected, and the railroads would
still enjoy all the rights to which they are en-
titled under the Constitution. That they
would then insist upon the speediest possible
disposition of the case; whereas, if they could
sue ont injunciions before inferior courts, they
would place every conceivable obstacle 10 the
way OF final decision, and defy the Law under
the shelter of an injunction procured from
some Judge who bad been appointed to office
through the influence Of railroad senators"
The Bailey amendment was necessary so
far as il would lend TO prevent an abuse of
judicial power by inferior courts in the manner
indicated; the original Hepburn bill having
failed to incorporate such a precautionary
measure. Under the original bill, the broad
court review" would probably prevail, and
the railroads might use the machinery of the
courts 10 harass the shippers and evade the
law. The Hepburn bill, with the Bailey
amendment added, was, in fact as well as in
name, remedial law; but without such
amendment, il would be almost sure to prove
abortiye
