missions appointed by the people have

Making OF Charges.

Ample transportation facilities are
vitality necessary in a country of such
great distances as ours, and | fully
believe that the people are willing
that the carriers should be allowed to
make such rates and charges as will
fairly compensate them for the SER
vice performed and enable them to
so establish their credit as to justify
and make possible the necessary ex-
penditures OF the future. The people
demand, and properly so. that charges
shall be the same to all They de-
mand that there shall be no Partially
shown as between shippers or COM
munities, and they will expect fair
and reasonable service at reasonable
prices. They are entitled to all this.
and ample machinery has been pro-
vided to insure their getting IL. Hav-
ing accomplished this, IL is equally
important that they should see that
no real injury is done to the carriers;
otherwise. in the end, the people will
be the ones who will suffer most from
such a condition. II should be clear
ly understood that in the end the peo-
pie must pay the bill II the people
demand more from the railroads than
they properly and fairly should,
through the reduction of rates, etc,
they will surely suffer from a lack of
necessary facilities in the future. n
the people through unwise legislation
impose unnecessary burdens upon the
carriers. the expense so incurred will
sooner or later be reuected in the
rates which the people must pay. The
railroads have come to a full recog-
milton of the changed order OF
things, and they have accepted the
situation.
