REDUCED PASSENGER RATES.

If the railroad commission sue
ceeds in lowering passenger fares
in this state its members will de-
serve the lasting gratitude Of every
citizen. For years those who tray-
eled on the Southern Pacific were
compelled to pay five cents mile,
while the people of California paid
three cents for the same distance.
A few years ago the Southern
Pacific reduced the rate in this state
to four cents, which is one cent or
more above what the people of Cal
ifornia are paying. Why should cur
people pay more to travel on the
railroad than those of California?
Is it because it is just or is it
because the Southern Pacific had the
state by the throat for many years
and Shook its people down for all
the traffic would bear?
Isn't it about time that Nevada

commission has so far done coed

will force a reduction in passenger
fares. When that is accomplished
the commission should shake up the
express companies.
