Southern Pacific railways. the only ef-
feet Is that there will be fewer through
trains. greater expense in accounting and
less close cooperation between the two
systems in handling the freight and pas
senger business.
II am willing to stand for enforce
ment of the law when it is enforced alike
for all. but when some one is picked
out because II Is good politics to attack
him, and the others are allowed to es-

situation. To have a statute which re-
quires the officials of justice to close
one eye whenever they pass by the men

more guilty is not Justice. And that is
exactly the existing situation in this
country"
The speaker said 1t had been generally

Procedure Not Determined.

THE putting together Of these facts
that Is. the actual valuation-wtl neces-
sarily lag somewhat behind the obtaining
Of the facts themselves. The commits
sion will in the near future have all the
data with respect to some railroads. but
whether valuation will be at once an
nounced in such cases must depend upon
the method which the commission selects
for determining the various questions
which will arise and to which reference
has been made.
Amy estimate of the expense must be
even more unreliable than that Of the
time. Railroads have been valued both
by public authority and by themselves
and the cost of these valuations has run
all the way from So to SO per mne.

which must be followed. the rate of ac-
complishment which has been attain able
in other places, l shou say, basing my
estimate upon the experience of state
commissions that s15 per mile would be
sufficient to cover the engineering part
of the work. and $40 per mile the account

gregate for the entire 100000 miles be-
tween six and seven million dollars"

Things to Be Determined.

He explained that the commission is to
determine just what each carrier is
worth. taking into consideration what
It cost to produce the property and to
build up the service what it would cost
to reproduce 1t today. and what the line
or company would sell for. with its en-
HANGED or deprecated valuation. its &C
quired privileges and its patronage.
That part of the work relating to rail-
roads alone was dealt with at length by
Mr.. Prouty. He said that the task haa
not sufficiently progressed so that its de-
tails could be either intelligently or
profitably discussed Preliminary sur
