SCORES RAILROAD BOARD
Senator Caminetti Demands That Cor
poration "Hogs" be Curbed


SACRAMENTO, Feb. 21.-Caminetti
of Amador impeached the railroad
commission for its policy of inaction
during the course of a long debate in
the Senate today on the resolutions in
troduced by him last week calling for
an investigation and report by the ju-
dietary committee on legislation that
would prohibit rebating. The State
constitution had provisions against re-
batting and discrimination, he declared,
but they were not self-enacting and
should be made applicable by legis-
lative acts. He said there was West
ern Pacific hog, a Santa Fe hog and a
Southern Pacific hog, just as there
were fish and game hogs. which the
Legislature was seeking to curb and re-
strict. He quoted from a message of
Governor Pardee and from a report of
Commissioner of Corporations Garfield
on railway abuses In California. and
said there were eighty different devia-
tions on the rates for oil The indie
pendent shippers throughout the State
were calling for redress, he added, and
TO deny them assistance was an abuse
of legislative trust.
Leavitt of Alameda said Caminetti,s 6
address was all politics, and that II
would be just as ridiculous to expect
the Legislature to allow resolutions to
pass that criticised a railroad commits
sion in Office two months as 1t would
be to criticise the past actions of the
commission it succeeded.
Wolfe of San Francisco took excep-
tion to Caminetti for holding up the
message of Pardee as sacred writ
If Governor Pardee had received
the denomination he strove so ardu-
ously for at Santa Cruz" said Wolfe
the gentleman from Amador would
not have the opportunity OF making
such quotations from his message"
The resolutions were voted down
Overwhelmingly.
