A WORD FROM RAILROAD
COMMISSIONER BARTINE

TO the Editor of the Appeal:
Under the caption 'Bartine Fails to
Aid People in Lower Rate, the
"News' OF yesterday morning con-
tains an article which is in the nature
Of a personal attack upon me, based
upon the fact that failed to appear
III the Federal Court on Tuesday in
the passenger fare case, wherein the
Southern Pacific Company was the
complainant, and the Railroad Com
nilsson the respondent. ESchewin9
all personalities. a word OF eNplana-
ton is due to the people OF this sec
ton and OF the state. Entertaining the
views which | did, and which | eN-
pressed in my dissenting opinion, II
was utterly impossible for me to ap-
pear in court to defend or take patt
in the defense OF the Oroder, without
complete self-stullihcation.
In my dissenting opinion express
ed the view very strongly that the
Order was absolutely void in tnat It
was not in fine with the issues made
at the hearing, or the theory upon
which the hearing was conducted: and
furthermore. that it was based very
largely upon data that was never IN
troduced in evidence, and which the
defendant company never had 4
chance to meet.
Such a thing as a Scent fare upon
the branch line had never been whis-
pered i'll my presence, No one had
ever asked the Commission for
such a rate, while there was a loud
clamor for a Scent fare on the main
line
| never knew that any member OF
the Commission thought of applying
Scent fare upon the branch line un-
til several months after the hearing,
when the opinion of the majority WIS
completed and laid upon my desk.
To say that it was a revelation to me
is to put it mildly. In my dissenting
opinion, as | have SAID. ! took the
position in the best of conscience.
that the Order was utterly void. ana
any one OF just ordinary intelligence
ought to know that, under such cir
cumstances, it would not be possible
for me to go into court and defend the
Order. Had it been to merely de
fend the opinion in matters OF minor
detail, the case would have been dit-
ferent.
The article in the News" states
that my opinion favored the railroad ;
contention. 1t does nothing OF the
kind The dissenting opinion was
greatly pleased and highly appreciated
Carson's hospitality, departing this
morning with feeling that Carson
was a fine little town and they liked
her people.
Owing to press of business and
short notice the editor of the Appeal
found it necessary to decline an invi-
tation from Mr.. Hyde, OF the Empire.
to accompany his party in the Little
Aristcrat to San Francisco.
Afternoon the Pioneer Auto Supply
Truck arrived in this city, coming IL
at good speed and with musical in
struments making their way lively.
One of the cars. after reaching the
Heidenreich ranch, met with troubles
and came back to the sops for repair
All cars have reached this far with
the exception Of one truck
One car the Pilot, under charge
of Mr.. Smith and acting instructions
from the company, left the party here
and went to Reno.

ROUGH GOING

Gene Howell and wife came in
from Tonopah yesterday, using their
own machine and selecting the Soda

encountered some pretty rough going
on account of washouts and heavy
rains, yet they arrived several hours
ahead of the big auto crowd that left
Bishop in the morning.

Talked 1t Over

! \ number OF the members OF thc
party talked over the trip pretty free
! ly with the reporters and others who
took an interest in the party and their
travels Several OF the party agreed
that they had received some very pc
culiar routing. and they also showed
, that they were tired out by the long
and unnecessary drives to out-of-the-
way places that followed.
Capt. A. L. Westgard, vice-Presi
dent OF the National Highway Asso-
citation. was pretty we'll tired out and
so stated He invited the reporters
to his room where he told them that
the. object of the trip was 70 pick out
roads across the continent, but did
not explain just how much money
would be spent bridging Lake Ia
hoe. He is fine old fellow. who
was pretty much all in with too long
trip and too hard a drive for one
cay He retired early.
Others of the party were about
town until quite late hour. They
were all in good health. all talkative
and had experiences that will last a
ivfetime

trips that will be made. and it is i'll

In "Tigerland" the author relates an
extraordinary comedy witnessed by a
friend who was sitting in the veranda
Of his tent in Bengal watching his ele-
plants, which were picketed under
some trees IL short distance off.
He saw the wife of one of the
mahouts emerge from her tentlike
shelter with an infant In her arms
She took 1t close up TO huge "tusker,'
to whom she made q low salaam: then
put the sleeping child down before 1t
and salnnmed again. Next she spread
n blanket on the ground and placed the
baby in the center Of it. well within
reach of the tusker's proboscis. Then
salaaming again. more ostentatiously.
went off to the bazaar.
Presently the child awoke and soon
began to crawl toward the edge Of the
blanket. But when 1t had gone foot
or two the elephant, stretching out his
trunk. gently pulled it back to its orig
NAL position. Again and again the
baby attempted similar excursions to
regions beyond the blankets edge. but
always with the same result. Explora-
ton uHder elephantine supervision
finally proved too dull. and SO the child
lay quiet for awhile, gazing up at its
huge nurse, then dropped Off peace
fully to sleep again.

Look to Truth for PROGRESS.

Progress by precedent is like a
sailor steering his boat today by his
course yesterday, or like lost hunt
er guiding himself by his own foot
steps; the result being, in both cases,
that the only progress is in a circle.
The past has its use, which is mostly
for warning. To get on humanity
must not look to the past, not to the
present, not to the future, but to truth,
which is "the sane yesterday, today
