of outstanding talent, which has en-
abled him to represent his State with
outstanding credit before Federal com
missions such as the Interstate Com
merce Commission. They claim it is
conceded that Winborne has taken,
and is taking a leading role in the
Souths fight against ruinous and dis
criminatory rail rate differentials.
AS for the merchants rate case, Win
borne supporters point to the fact
that both associate commissioners
concurred and that their candidate
would have been helpless to do any
thing about it under any circum-
stances.
They actually laugh at the "five
per cent penalty to Duke" attack
and say it is nothing but a mares
nest which was conclusively shown up
six years ago. The fact, they declare,
is that prior to November, 1892, the
power companies were allowed to add
five per cent to every bill, then dis
count five per cent for it's prompt
payment. This Winborne changed,
to the benefit of the customer, by
making the power companies charge
the correct bill for current used, then
add a five per cent penalty for late
payment.
