IOWA RATES LOWER.
Attorney General Replies 70 the
Railroads Complaint.

In his answer to the complaint OF
the Chicago. Minneapolis. st. Paul &
Omaha railroad. which alleged In the
federal court that the rates provided
in the legislation enacted in 1907
were confiscatory. Attorney General
Thompson shows in figures a compar-
ison OF the earnings in 1907 and 1909
and also a comparison of the rates
now charged in Nebraska and in other
states.
The suit has to do with the 2-cent
fare law and the Aldrich freight rate
law, which decreased freight rates Is
per cent
Discussing freight rates, the an
swer says:
THE rates provided for the trans
portation If lumber in carloads in
Nebraska is 119 cents per 100 pounds
per 100 miles: in Iowa the rate is
6.3 cents per 100 pounds per 100
miles. The rate on wheat in NebraS-
ka is 11.48 cents; in Iowa it is 81
cents. The rate on corn in Nebras-
ka is 1912 cents, while in Iowa 1t is
6.8 cents. On cattle the rate in Ne
braska is 1876 cents. while in Iowa it
is 10 cents The rate on hogs in Ne
bsaska is II cents, while in Iowa the
rate is IL cents The rate on apples
in Nebraska is 1876 cents. while in
Iowa the rate is S.4 cents. The rate
on potatoes in Nebraska is 11.9 cents,
while in Iowa the rate is 10 cents.
per ton. while in Iowa the rate is "a
cents"
The answer sets out that while the
revenue from intrastate freight ship
men;s has been increased since the
law went into effect, the expense of
operation has not been increased. The
revenue from intrastate shipments
for the year ending June 80. 1908.
was $3.50. 359.75 and for 1909 the reve-
nue. was $657,149.23.
The earnings of the freight depart
ment for the year ending June 30,
1907. amounted to $1.202 .353.79. while
for the year 1909 the revenue was
$1.245.149.23.
The freight earnings in Nebraska
for the year ending June so. 1907.
amounted to $1.79 lilo per train mile.
while for the year 1909 the earnings
per train mile amounted to $1.S27.
The earnings per ton of freight han
died in Nebraska in 1907 amounted
to $1.23: in 1909 the earnings per ton
Of freight amounted to $1.47. The
freight earnings per ton mile in 1907
amounted to 16.5 mills. while in 1909
the earnings amounted to 1853 mills.
This amount. the answer says, was
almost double the average earnings
Of the entire line. 9.O3 mills.
The operating revenue of the rail-
road for Nebraska in 1907 was ST.
725.29S46, while for 1909 the 0perat-
ing revenue was $1.SO7,73S.42 The
expepres for 1907 were Sl.199.5SI95
ard for 1909 the expenses were ST.
231 1921. The net income for the
business done in Nebraska in 1907
was S525.71G.5l and for 1909 it was
$685.. S05.21. The net income from
operation for 1907 per mile was ST.
1881. and for 1909 the net income

Sundry eggs will be immersed in brine to if they

And what is the answer?
Well, friends down in Wall street have SIMPLY mort
gagged tomorrow and expected to pay interest
the debt
Morgan is millionaire but he didn't his millions.
He capitalized the future earning power of railroads
and we must pay freight based not mileage but on
capitalization.
Andy Carnegie has stack of bonds and there are two
score steel ultimionares But their securities not
measured by their mills and mines but by the monopoly of
the trade And when the farmer is made to pay for his
wire fence AND interest watered stocks and bonds
he naturally has to charge more for his produce
Similarly the beef trust and the leather and the wool and
sugar and the flour trusts must each dividends on
watered stock, and to do so must boost prices
And when materials go up and food goes up then men
and factories not in trusts must boost their prices.
So we are all gouging each other IN self defense
And it all necessary not because labor ana lana ana
machinery and buildings and rain and sunshine and fuel
are scarce because Gods pantry has been anticipated
capitalized and made to pay today profit on next
years crop and royalty on unborn beef
In word: If $7OOOO 100000 has arfciay been added
to the Capitalization of the nations industries, then to
earn per cent on this fiction somebody must pay $3.50
100000 per year more than things are worth.
That added to the cost of living ism It 1t?
