weeks since the rate hear
ing before the railroad
commission.
No decision yet. What do
you think?

Stevens county expected to
have a carload exhibit of Rome
Beauties at the Spokane apple
show next week. But upon lear
ming the holdup rates required
by the Great Northern to trans
port this car of apples to Spo-
kane, the project was abandoned.
The county loses its chance of
winning the carload prize, the
apple show loses its opportunity
of seeing the beauties raised in
this county, and this northeast
section of the state loses an op-
portunity of showing what it can
and does raise.
The Great Northern demanded
$112.8O for taking the car to
Spokane, over the s. F. & N.
branch. The Great Northern
rate extended to other parts of
the state equally distant from
Spokane is $84 for such a car
load. The Northern Pacific rate,
like distance for a car, is $72.
The business men who took hold
of the project to send the car
load display to Spokane refused
to be held up by this s. F. & N.
road to the tune Of $50 more
than the N. P. rate for the same
distance, and $40 more than the
G. N. gives patrons on its other
lines in the state.
There is now beginning an
organized movement of Stevens
county residents to discontinue
all possible patronage of the
Great Northern system, particu-
larly in passenger travel east and
west from Spokane, and also to
request that all incoming freight
shipments be sent over some
line other than the Great North

We Still Pay the
High Freight Rates

The facts in the freight rate
case are easily shown in the
following simple table, which
gives the freight classification,
the price in cents per 100 pounds
from Spokane to Colville on the
S. F. & NJ, the price in cents per
100 pounds from Spokane west
ward on the Great Northern, and
the price in cents per 100 pounds
out of Spokane on the Northern
Pacific. The average is 800

ern. We can we'll afford to recip-
rocate the unfriendly feeling of
the Great Northern towards
Stevens county, by refusing to
give anything to this road which
can be given to some other road.
When every resident of the
county takes this stand, Mustard
Jim will begin to look into mat
ters up here.
incidentally, it will be we'll for
every merchant who receives
freight into the county to save
his freight bills. Suit may be
brought some of these days to
collect from the road the over
charges which have for years
been paid, and the freight bills
will be necessary for proof.

Geo. A. Lee, former assistant
attorney general, former chair
man of the industrial commits
sion, has been appointed by Gov
ernor Hay on the state railroad
commission to succeed H. A.
Fairchild deceased.
- Northeast Washington will
watch Mr.. Lee with interest-to
learn what kind of a man he is
whether he will serve the rail-
roads, or the people, or whether
he will try to be fair with both.
Mr.. Lee will be remembered
as assistant to Attorney H. G.
Kirkpatrick in the prosecution of
the Pepoon case last year. He is
undoubtedly a smart man. Up
in this country we want honesty
and fairness in addition to smart
ness, however. We want the
3Oq6 freight rate discrimination
taken from our already weighty
burdens of taxation and extor-
ton. We want this done, not as
a favor to US, but in justice to
our section and to our people.
Will we get it?
Ask Lee. All other hopes seem
to have failed.
The Colville examiner. [volume] (Colville, Wash.) 1907-1948, 1911-11-18

This discrimination against COL
vile shows that the Great North
ern and it's grating tributary
the S. F. & N. have no time for
Colville or for Colville's inter-
ests. And inasmuch as the same
rate of discrimination is applied
to EVERY station in Stevens
county by the s. F. & NJ, the
Stevens county people can see
just how dearly the Great North
ern loves Stevens county-and
Stevens county . money.
The Colville stations receipts
are on an average $12O, 900 a
year. Most of this is for freight.
Since Colville is paying an aver
age of 30qo more freight rates
than other towns equally distant
from Spokane on other lines,
you can see just how much of
your own money has been stolen
from you in the years past.
Isn't it about time for Stevens
county people to patronize the
roads which give fair rates; and
completely cut out the Great
Northern which is continually
grating and gouging you in
freight rates?

President Taft in his last Chi

was a bare possibility Of the re-
publican ticket being defeated
next year, but those republicans
present attributed the presidents
utterances not so much to his
conclusions of the situation after
making his remarkable swing
around tn e circle and feeling
the public pulse, but to his COM

That J. P. Morgan's grip on
the financial situation is becom-
ing more and more absolute is
indicated by the discovery of the
Stanley committee that the cash
balance of the steel trust, which
he dominates, and of the rail-
roads and .other industrial corpo-
rations in which he controls
heavy interests, amounting in all
to over half a billion dollars, is
on deposit in the office of J. P.
Morgan & Co., a private banking
concern, not subject to the super
vision of any constitutional
authority. This money Morgan
can lend to whom he pleases and
refuse to lend to whom he likes.
Moreover, the control of this
cash gives him the power to
regulate the credits of this coun-
try, which makes this one man
the financial dictator of America.

President Taft's allusion to the
defeat of his party next year
was not at all pleasing to repub-
lican party leaders. Nothing
discourages a party so much as
the prospect of defeat, and for a
year past the republican party
has been facing more prognosti-
cations of losing the next admin
istration than any party in power
ever received. The effect is that
the republicans have little en-
couragement to work.
Protection enriches the few at
the expense of the many, the
rich at the expense Of the poor.
A half.century of the operation
of the protective policy in the
United States illustrates its
effects. Of all the factors that
have contributed to the colony of
mushroom millionaires in this
country, nothing has played such
an important part as the protect
i've tariff. A majority of the
magnates who live in mansions
along Fifth avenue. and whose
sons make life a joy for the SEN
sational newspapers by marrying
chorus ladies. got their wealth
through the republican given
privilege of picking the pockets
of the people through favoring
tariff rates. The masses are
poorer to the extent that the
magnates have been made over
rich.
