Attorney General Thompson set out that the fixing of rates Is essentially legislative In Its character and that the railroads are trying to enjoin legislative discretion in their fight against the new rates on grain. The brief recites: "What the railway commission may do in the matter of fixing rates Is yet unknown to themselves; whether they will fix any rate In still unknown to them, and until a rate is fixed the question of reasonableness or unreasonableness of the same is simply a hypothetical, academic and mooted question. There is, therefore, nothing to litigate." The attorney general declared that thenotice given to the railroads by the commission relating to the grain schedules did not Indicate that any schedule had been determined upon. He insisted that the commission had dono nothing since it issued the no tice that had breathed vitality Into the Jiotice to give it the force and effect of law or to furnish any basis for en orceiiienti Only One of a Kind.
