siderable territory east of that water
way he cares little whether rebates are
permissible or not. He will not need
to grant rebates as long as he owns
all the lines. To the north there Lay
be some competition from the Northern
Pacific and the Great Northern but not
enough to seriously disturb him. Then
there is no telling what morning the
public may awake to the face that
Hartman has gobbled up all the trans
continental lines. He has most of them
already.
The possibility, even the probability,
of similar combinations in the pipe
lines, is apparent from Commissioner
Smiths report. The situation there
lends itself to the same kind of mani
pulation. Then there is the danger
politically, for such conditions enforce
Bryan's government ownership argu-
ment Of which we shall hear much in
the next presidential campaign. AS
long as such conditions prevail in the
face of an honest and aggressive Pres
ident, the public is likely to be probing
around for new remedies In these
days of independent voting there is no
telling what tack the men with bal
lots will take. The East may be in
different or even hostile, but the West
is nightly aroused and there is not
big city in the land where radicalisn
is not in favor.
