WHITES JOINT RATE BILL.

The most important bill yet intro
duced in the present session OF the
Iowa legislature is the joint rate bill by
Representative White, OF story county.
Neither the primary bill nor the 2-cent
fare bill can be Of as much service to
the business interests of Iowa. Mr..
Whites bill requires two or more rail-
roads to make joint rate by the
shortest route for shipments OF freight
In Iowa. A feature Of the bill Is that
II requires car load shipments to- be
carried over two or more connecting
lines in che state without change Of
cars. The joint rates are to be determ-
ined by the state railroad commission,
which is directed to give, notice within
ten DAYS of the enactment OF the law
that it vii begin the fixing of joint
rates on certain date. thirty days
notice being provided for the railroad
companies.
The business men Of every county
seat town and OF every other town in
Iowa should meet in mass meeting and
petition the legislature to enact the
White bill into law. In effect 1t pro-
poses to give a town like Eldora, Id
Gated on one or two railroads, the same
shipping advantages as are enjoyed by
Marshalltown, and to give Marshall-
town the same advantages as are en-
joyed by Des Moines. As it is now,
when Eldora wants to ship to Mel
bourne two short distance local freights
must be paid, one over the Iowa Cen
trail for twenty five miles, to Marshall
town. and one over the Great West
ern to Melbourne for fifteen miles. A
Joint rate under Whites bill would give
Eldora a continuous forty mile haul.
Marshalltown people have just voted
a tax of $4,000 to get an interurban
started which will give a better traffic
arrangement with thu Milwaukee road.
Her business men would bonus that
railroad to the extent of thousands Il
her own rails would be laid into their
city, yet the joint rare bill proposes to
accomplish the same purpose at no cost
to the public whatever. 1t will not
become law at this session, because
the business men Of iowa are not alive
to their own interests. Eventually
Iowa will have Joint rates, and not un-
til then will her cities have an equal
chance with Des Moines or Chicago to
grow. White is one Of the ablest men
in the lower house, and has seen what
is really the matter with Iowa.
