Gov. Goodins Expresses Opinion That
Dividends is Chief Object Of Rail-
road Management.

Washington, Dec. 27.-Inter-State
Commerce Commissioner Lane who has
direct charge of ameliorating coal and
car famine conditions In the north.
west, is in daily receipt of hundreds
Of letters from coal dealers and resi-.
dents In North Dakota, Minnesota,
Wyoming and Idaho. Some Of the
writer's go to the extent of saying that
In many instances freight trains have
not passed railroad stations for a
month or six weeks and that hundreds
of thousands of dollars have been lost to
the farmers and elevator men, particu-
larly In North Dakota, by reason OF
their failure to obtain cars to move
their wheat and flax.
Commissioner Lane, Wednesday re-
ceived a letter which is a sample of
many, from Cheyenne, North Dakota,
which stated that on November rs,
car was billed from that point and
that on the 18th inst, the car was
still on the sidetrack and a freight
train had not passed up or down for
weeks.
Governor Gooding, to whom Com
missioner Lane had written for infor-
nation relation to conditions in Idaho
states: ...l +.
THE serious trouble, it seems to
me, is the fact that among the trans
portation companies, the one important
consideration in their management Is
the securing of dividends without re.
gard to the service rendered to the
people. The latter consideration IL
entirely lost sight Of"
The governor of Idaho informs the
commissioner that he will recommend
the creation of railroad commission
in his annual message to the legisla-
ture. Governor Gooding includes in
his letter to Commissioner Lane
copy of a report made by the immigra-
ton commissioner, who after an anal
ysis of existing conditions concludes
that the coal famine in western
Wyoming, south and southwest Idaho
is due to a shortage in motive power
and cars.
