Constructive Legislation.
''In this connection let us remember
what Cummins did for us here in Iowa
Would you be willing to go back to the
Old conditions which have been ended
by Cummins and his influence namely,
the universal use Of free transporta-
ton for those in political positions in
Guiding judges of court and legislators,
and shippers of influence, with rebates
secretly given: Rebates were always
against the farmer, for he was always
required to pay the maximum rates.
These rebates often amounted 10 Il fair
profit but it was always an excess prof
it, 1t was the common practice, as We
all recall, for the railroads under old
conditions to build up one community
while tearing down or destroying an
other. 1t was the Cummins influence
after a careful investigation, which
disclosed that the average cost for
transportation Of passengers in Iowa
was 1.9G cents per mile. AS a result
the two-cent fare bill was passed on the
theory that the railroads are quasi
public organizations and that shch dis
elimination was not only unfair but
against public policy and for that rca-
son could not be tolerated by an intel
ligent citizenship.
"And so it must not be forgotten ;hat
without this constructive federal lcgis
lation as formulated by Senator Cum
minis. assisted as he was by the most
and patriotic democrats il
the senate. utter decentralization of
traffic would be the rule now 1t is ~
nonparti>an measure. The
attempt now being made in Iowa to
make it partisan issue is both unfair f;
and unpatri0tic."

day given out by Ex-Governor Warren
Garst, who said:
THE Democratic organization is
making special effort to prejudice
the Iowa farmers against Senator
Cummns on account Of his work on
the railroad bill. This seems unfair
from every standpoint. 1t is said some
of the farmers have been induced TO
bitterly oppose Cunmin> on the theory
that the government is guaranteeing

per cent upon their investment.

with the result that | believe it to be
a just and fair proposition and that
instead of guaranteeing the railroads
five and One-half per cent return. its
purpose and effect is to limit them to
Il five and onc-half per cent earning.
Public service companies would
much prefer to fix their own rates with
out interference, and these rates would
be universally higher. II is true that
the rates have been almost doubled

to be just land | am sure that the
