these men, without exception, showed spirit Of fairness
which may well interest the railroads II is difficult for
the outsider and not entirely easy for railroad official
to say ofhand what constitutes just and adequate pas
senger fare under present conditions. Certain lines
promptly raised the rate 10 cents a mile, which seems
rather stiff increase, but may not in fact be more than
is required TO make the traffic profitable.
This much, however, is certain: Judge YoumanS de-
cson while II leaves passenger in somewhat chaotic
and uncertain condition. doe, not that the railways
can safely revert TO "the -pubcbe damned" policy which
formerly found favor in transportation circles The rail
roads are now operated by the government and unle"
the magua, want that government control TO develop into
government ownership they must show proper consldera
ton for the patrons OF their lines.
That this spirit OF compromise and consideration oi
the rights Of people in the territory II may prove
