must necessarily make their rates as
low as those of the water transporta-
ton companies. Spokane, being an in
terror point, must 'spay the freight"
The Pacific Coast Jobbers' association
has interviewed in the case, holding
that the present rates are just and
should not be disturbed. The coast
cities now have the benefit of lower
freight rates than the interior towns
and are opposed to any change in this
discrimination. A hearing was held in
Chicago on March IS, and the present
session of the commission was called
to allow an investigation of the water
