Welis-Fario Sued

A Utah commiss on company
has filed charges with the inter.
state commerce commission against
the Wells Fargo express company
for oNercharging fruit shippers for
transporting strawberries. The es-
timated weight of a crate of straw.
brrries according to the express
company is thirty-three pounds
while the shippers maintain that
the crates used have an average
weight Of only twent five pounds.
The exp ess rates are by the hun.
dred-weight but the strawberry
crates are not weighed by the ex-
press company the weight being
liked by estimate at thirty three
pounds. In some places the CON-
pany has a monopoly on the ex-
press buainess, and hence has
things Its own way. The shippers,
however, declare that the arbitrary
estimate Of the number Of pounds
to the crate without weighing the
crates is in direct violation of the
published schedules issued to com.
ply with interstate commerce law.
The Wells. Fargo advertises a rate
of ~ per cwt in 1,OO0-pound lots
from Provo to Denver and to Colo
RADIO common points. The COM
pany would ship twenty boxes of
apples weighing about LOCO
pounds and charge only this 81
per cwt rate, but in shipping straw
berries they will not take them at
actual weight. Thirty.three pounds
is about correc' when the Leslie
crate is used but our western grow
ers have never used this crate to
any extent. The Utah shippers
have u special crate called the
donble-deck which weighs from
twenty-three to twenty seven
pounds, or an average of twenty.
five pounds the crate

The Protection Deficit,

In 1897, the Washington Post notes,
the Republican ways and means com
mittee was kept busy finding things to
protect. now 1t has search warrants
out TO find things from which to raise
revenue, the deficit from which will be
$3.50, 900 900. The Post rejects the Idea
OF taxing tea and coffee and also OF
increasing the tax on malt liquors. 1t
goes on to say:
'"rhe ways and means committee
will play with fire when II brings in
u stamp tax In time of peace. A bond
sale for current expenses would be no
more odiouB and 1t would be no an.
swer TO the public clamor II would in
cite to say II Is necessary to resort to
It. A stamp tax Is clog on business,
a burden imposed on trade. but the In
convenience It would entail would
make Il far more repulsive than the
cost of II would render II onerous. The
stamp tax England imposed on the colo
nies was for n beggarly sum that eth
er one of the thirteen could have paid
without embarrassment, but 1t made
n revolution and war, and even In
1862, when II was resorted to TO save
the union, there we're mutterings thai

MIR. Roosevelt and the Trusts.

When John Moody, editor Of Moody's
Manual OF Corporation Securities,
compiled n list OF trusts in 1904 he re-
cited the names of 29S lesser indus
trial trusts, of seven greater industrial
trusts, besides IS trusts in process OF
reorganization. eight telephone and
telegraph trusts and 1903 gas. electric
light and street railway consultations.
Besides these there were 100 railroads
controlled in six groups and ESQ roads
in nine or ten minor consultations.
From the time of this statistical
computation in 1904 to March 4. 1909,
Mr.. Roosevelt was president OF the
United States, with full power to en-
force the Sherman antitrust law. with
ample appropriations Mt his disposal
and with the decisions Of the supreme

PEOPLE MUST PAY
FOR REPUBLICAN ExTRAVA-
GAncE AND INDIFFERENCE.
Now u 10 Proposed to Add War Taxes
to the Internal Revenue Laws
Ineompeteney Enthroncd
In Washington.

Engaged In an apparently hopeless
struggle 20 make both ends meet, the
ways and means committee OF the
house of representatives is discussing
the adyisability OF adding war taxes to
the internal revenue laws. The deficit
for the fiscal year is mounting rapidly
and will expand from the present $780,
600 900 to $3.50, 100000, or more, by the
end OF the fiscal year. The Dingley
law has failed dismally MS o revenue
producer, and the hope Of increase
from a new tariff law Is not only i'm
possible, but there Is the certain pros
pect that there will be falling on In
customs receipts as the result OF the
scheduled reimbursement OF duties.
Extravaganza and indifference are
the twin sins for whose commission
the Republicans must pay the penalty
of restoring war taxes In time OF peace.
II is a bitter dose. A duty on coffee
and a duty on tea would be to pattern
after the English system of raising
money on articles not produced In the
country. Their imposition would be
TO represent an indefensible mixture
of the Numerically opposite English
and American systems. II Is woeful
comment on the protection system,
which has been strained to the crack
ing point for the last IL years, and Is
still unable to both protect and raise
revenue at the same time.
With the cost OF living at home OPP
pressiye and prosperity delaying It's
heralded return and still out of sight,
It is doubtful whether the people VIII
take kindly to tax on their break
fast table. An increase of the tax on
beer will cause little public concern
but the temperance OF the stamp
taxes will place before the people the
constant reminders that incompetency
has been enthroned In Washington.
The Democrats may heave q sigh OF
relief that they did not win last No
vember. They have, at least, avoided
a heritage OF the kind that came to
them In 1892, when they were made
TO suffer for the sins of their reck
less predecessors.
