The Two Cent Rate.

The recent order OF The state
railroad commission directing the
railroads of the state to put on
sale interchangeable mileage
books at 2 cents, has been COM
piled with by the Illinois Central,
the Mobile and Ohio, the Alaba-
ma and Vicksburg and the st.
Louis and San Francisco roads.
The Louisville and Nashville,
which traverses only a short dis
lance across the southern end of
the state, has refused to comply
with the commissions order and
has filed a petition before the
federal court asking for an order
restraining the commission from
enforcing it's order. The court
has granted the injunction and
the matter is now in the courts
for adjustment.
At one time it was thought
that the roads would put the
rate in without appealing to the
courts, but the notion of the L..
& N. forces the commission to
fight it's restraining order. There
is a growing sentiment in all the
states in favor of a two cert rate
and we had hoped that the order
of the commission making a two
cent interchangeable rate was
the opening up of the question
of a regular two cent rate, which
would be enacted into law by the
next legislature. The recent re-
ports of some of the roads doing.
a large passenger business in the
state, show that the roads show
ing good results realize an aver
age of only a small per cent over
a two cent rate, although the
rate is now three cents. With a
fixed two cent rate by law, the
roads would cut out much of the
business now done below that
price and the average would still
be about what it has been for the
last few years. A cheaper rate
and an increased business on &C
count of the low rate, would give
the roads better results within a
short time than they are now get
ting from their passenger bust
ness and we should see them ac-
cede to the demand of the people
for a reduction. The legislature
will make the rate two cents un-
less the lobby is too strong for
the weakened members who
lack backbone or those who
profit by the positions they occu-
ply as representatives of the peo-
pie, and get their salaries aug
mented from those who seek IA
vorable legislation for their spe-
cial interests.
