A GREAT VICTORY FOR THE PRO.
DUCERS OF THE NORTHWEST.

A review Of the decision of the In
terstate Commerce Commission in the
Western Advance rate cases shows
that the Farmers and Producers won
q large sized victory. Minnesota was
largely interested in the proposed ad-
vance of one cent per hundred pounds
on grain and grain products, which
would represent an increase of about
seven dollars per car; the increase of
ono cent per hundred pounds on live
stock and packing house products, re-
presenting an average increase of
about $3.50 per car; the increase of
one cent per hundred pounds on hay
and straw, representing about $500
per car. Under the decision, the rail
roads are not permitted to make in
creases upon grain and grain pro.
ducts, live stock or packing house
products. On hay and straw they may
not exceed the Class C rate.
AS far as the northern states were
concerned the fight revo1ved around
these proposed increases because they
largely affected the producers of the
Northwest.
FOrty-one railroads operating in the
territory between the Indiana-1llinois
state line and the Pacific Coast Joined
in an effort to increase freight rates.
Tariffs were filed with the Interstate
Commerce Commission to become et-
fcctive December 1st, 1914. Members
Of the Commissions representing six
teen Of the Western states met at
Washington, D. c., to consider these

other states appeared before the In
terstate Commerce Commission and
asked to have the rates suspended
pending an investigation. This re.
quest was granted. Thereupon, a
working Committee consisting of one
commissioner from Minnesota, Iowa,
Kansas, Nebraska and South Dakota
was appointed to represent the states
In the investigation. The Committee
met at Kansas City on December 18th
to arrange for the work; engaged sta.
tisticians and experts to make the in.
vestigation into the financial history
Of the railroads, going back a period
Of twenty-four years, and also to in.
vestigate the direct cost of handling
grain, live stock, and packing house
products In carload lots.
These men were put to work early
In this year and were kept continually
employed until the middle of May
The Ave states named agreed to each
contribute $15,O08:00 toward joint
fund Of 100000 to help pay the ex
penses Of the investigation. The Min
ne0ota Legislature appropriated this
amount -
Hearings began in Chicago on Mar
18th, and continued each day until May
18th. Commissioner Elmquist, Attor
ney General Smith, and Assistant At
torney General Edgerton represented
& Minnesota at those hearings. Argu
I nent1 were made before the Inter
sBtate Commerce Commission in June
Mr.. Edgerton presented an argument
there on the question Of the valuation

OF the railroads IN these northern
states.
This is the first time in the history
of the country when the states have
united III an effort to make thorough
investigation of proposed increase
In freight rates, as well as into the
financial history of many of the large
railroad systems.
Had the railroads been allowed to
make the increase in rates asked for,
millions of dollars would have to be
paid out by the producers Of the
Northwestern States.

Bond Election for Bridges.

The board of supervisors at
their last meeting decided to call
a bond election for the issuing of
$63, 900 in bonds for the purpose
of constructing bridges in this
county. They also made ar
rangements to borrow $40, 900
from the state to improve the
roads in the county. One road
that will be improved is between
Winslow and HoIbrook, and the
Lord knows it is needed, as in its
present condition it is little bet
ter than a cow path. We are
glad to see our supervisors wax
ing up to the real needs Of the
county, and all of them being
good hard-headed business men
the county will get value received
from every dollar expended.
Now let the taxpayers get busy
and vote the bonds for the
bridges, so the good work will
go on.

Youthful Burglar.

Special Officer Kinman, of the
Santa Fe, took a young man in
custody last Friday who was
trying to beat his way west on a
freight. When searched the lad
had in his possession an automat-
ic revolver and a slug-shot, ano
a coin bag containing money and
jeWelry. At first he refused
to talk, but later he confessed to
robbing two houses in Albuquer-
que. The sheriff at that place
was notified, and he came here
the following day, and returned
with his prisoner. According
to the boys story his people are
prosperous and highly respected
in Michigan, but the wanderlust
struck him, and it was while
trying to beg something to eat
that the opportunity came to him
to steal.

Electric Light Decision.

The~suit of N. S. Bly,, mayor
of the town of WinsIow VS. the
Winslow Electric Company, in
stituted several months ago be-
fore the Corporation Commits
sioners, for the purpose of re-
adjustment Of the cost of street
lighting, has finally been decided
in lengthy opinion, full of legal
verbiage and technical terms.
Boiled down to real facts, the
Commission finds there is no con-
tract existing between the town
and the company for street light
ing, and the town bears the7same
relation as any other commercial
consumer; that the old fiat rate
of So. 80 per month for each lamp
was not a contract price; that
they had the right to elect for
moonlight schedule and could in
sist on a meter measured service
for current. The commission al
SO furnished a new schudule of
rates to be charged thescity for
current, fixing the rate for street
lighting at six cents an hour for
1000 or over K. w. hours per
month. On the principle points
of contention the city has won,
and let us all hope peace and
harmony will hereafter prevail
between the city and the COM
pany. The commission decided
the city had to pay the light bill
under the old schedule for the
first three months of this year,
while the row was brewing, and
prior to the case reaching the
commission. City Attorney A.
Y. Moore represented the city.
