THE RAILROADS AND THE LOW
FARE LAW.

In considering the merits of the 2-cent
fare laws few persons look farther
than to ascertain the effect which they
will have upon their own private pocket
books. With a view limited TO this mar
row range the argument is all on one
side But IL happens that these new
laws touch the pOCketbooks and treas
urfes Of the carriers and hence there
/ IS unaninity on the part OF the cor
( porations to combat the low fare acts.
Consequently, in many parts Of the
country, law suits have been commenced
10 contest the validity OF the new laws
and to restrain their enforcement until
a court of last resort has passed upon
the merit Of the contention.
II Is something more than mere SEN
timent which induces the railroads 20
combat the 2-cent fare laws. The
managers are impelled by a desire 20
prevent an inroad upon the companies
receipts and the battle will be waged
20 a finish The chief argument which
the railroads viii advance, IN their ef-
forts 70 annul the low fare laws, is
that the acts are in violation Of thu
/ Twenty-fourth amendment OF the Con-
stitution or the United States, which Is
: designed 70 prevent the cOnhscation Of
ones property without giving the In
! 1ured party his day in Court.-Frank ID.
