he attorneys for the commission
pRI<GIDAI 0RJE(vTION

The principal point made against
the law is the objection to the SEIZED
ule of maximum freight rates as pre-
scribed BY the legislature upon the
ground that the rates SO prescribed
are so low as to be non-remnnera-
tive This objection if sustained
would render this section of the law
absolutely invalid and perhaps in
volye the legality OF the entire
statute.
NUMEROUS AFFlDANITS.
This objection WAS supported by
hundreds Of pages of affidavits pre-
pared By the railroad auditors and
attorneys relative to their earnings
and expenses. cost of doing business,
thereby concerning the cost of doing
the local business. as compared with
the cost Of the interstate business
and with briefs and oral arguments
of exceptional brilliancy and power.
These aiiidavits and arguments
were met by a most thorough and
masterful dissection and an answer
prepared by the commission that
shows the actual effect which the OPP
GRAFTON of the railroad commission
law will have upon the revtnues OF
the railroads concerned in the suit
and conclusion drawn as to whether
or not the operation OF the law
renders the local business of the rail
roads Improbable.
The showing made by the railroad
companies and the answers prepared
by the commission are reviewed in
the report. pages 26-52.
ARGUMENTS OVERTHROW
No one can read this interesting
and intricate discussion attentively
without reaching the conclusion that
in so far at least as the Southern
Pacific company and the Nevada Cali
fonia Railway company are concern
ed their arguments have been utterly
overthrow. In so far as these two
roads are concerned the maximum
rates are renumerative and theis To-
cal business is now and will be even
under the operation of the maximum
rates. the most profitable business
done by these roads.
SERVICE COMPLAINTS.

viewed the different service COM
plants that have been acted upon by

BETTER RATES.
The commission has secured a rate
on the Virginia and Truckee railroad
of $3.50 between Reno and Carson
for the round trip and rate of SIS
one way. This rate replaces the old
$500 round trip rate and $500 one
way.
MEANS GREAT SAVING.
They secured the round trim rate of
$l3.4O between Reno and San Fran
cisco. replacing the old rate OF $16.70
They secured a round trip rate be-
tween all points in Nevada on the
line of the Southern Pacific company
and the Nevada and California rail
way of 81 per cent of the double To-
cal fare. The saving to the travelling
