Fairness To
Transportation Companies
The present legislature has pending
a bill asking all increase in passenger
rates in this state, which in all fair
ness should be given consideration
along with other business measures
Introduced into that body. The inter
state commerce commission after a
year' in vcstlgai ln nil Die rate tjues
Don, decided that InbM'st ite inles ap
plying to lines of east rn railroads
iW'ie tnti low and granted an lnecrease.
It is (unliable (hat the lutcistatc com
merce commission will grant u similar
inctease to westoi-ti roads for the same
basic reasons that they found lor
granting tin iucicasu to roads In the
eastern states-.
The cost of doing business in every
line of cll'iiit has been steadily on the
increase for a nuuiler of jears, The
fanner c in not tin business so cheaply
now as lie did ten years ngu: tlio mer
chant lluds his expenses of doing
business cieeping upward ami iipwatd
year by year. The inaiuitiicturer meets
the saint) ch iracter of t uiiditiou.s it
permeates every line of Industry and
elfort the lilgher cost of doing busi
ness. It cost this paper 111 per cent,
more in 11)1 1 to produce ilsptiblicatiou
week by week than it cost twelve years
ago. It costs transportation compa
nies inoro to do business), largely
more, than it did ten or llfteen years
ago Demands are incessant for in
creased wages. These demands aie
met from time to time. Materials of
all kinds used by transportation com
panies are higher; the cost of mainte
nance of right of way has steadily
iiutieased; the ost of rolling stock of
every kind is greater today than here
tofore, and with these increases there
conios the constant demand on trans
portation companies for better t-orviej',
for extensions, increase in train mini
lior., more comforts for travelersall
these feat ures are insistent ly demanded
while at the same time rates aie low
ered, so it is Hot surpiisiilK to lliose
who stop and think and compare con
ditions with every line of business, it.
is not surprising that transportation
companies are falling down in their
t-aiuiugs year by year until tho ques
tion has become hoth acute and seri
ous willi them anil their requests for
relief arc worth consideration.
In other lines of busliiesB there me
no such testrictloiis as are placed upon
transportation companies. With the
faunor's increased cost of pio'luction
conies such periods as at picseiit, when
the tilings he produceo double in value.
Tin' man of business has free leeway
to restrict the output or to advance
his prices to protect himself and meet
the additional high cost of business-.
The transportation compauits mo re
stricled by laws and regulations; they
may not advance prices, no matter
how expenses may advance, without
permission is given, aud they may not
reduce ser'-lce, no matter how business
may fall oil", without consent is given
them.
It is a question if there ought nntlo
ho more elasticity, especially in the
hands of lailwav cimmissioiw, '.o
handle the question of rates of trans
portation than the lav sal present givo
them. This question of additional
compensation ti transportation com
panies is not one that ought to he
passed upon and dismissed, eiihei thru
ignorance or prejudice. 1'oople in all
other lines of business ought to be
willing to have the question investi
gated aud have tho truth known, then
when they establish this, they ought
to be willing to grant the same con
cessions to the largest single Hue tif
business in the world that they indi
vidually make in handling their own
private business.
In Iowa dining Die last week, the
presidents of five of their leading Hues
of railway, met with the governor of
the btate and with both branches of
the legislature and told those bodies
something of the conditions which con
fronted them. They asked on their
part, that a heating be given to the re
quests that they are making for op
portunity to Increvsu rates to meet the
increased cost of doing business. The
Iowa legislature granted the hearing
uud will go further and get all the In
formation possible upon tho question.
Such action taken in this state would
have no grounds for criticism on the
part of any; the criticism would be if
a legislative body or any large body of
people generally would refube to give
u hearing or investigation to a line of
business of such vast Importance as
transportation.
To make it possible for railroads to
increase wages, to make new invest
ments in ueede I rolling stock, to make
large improvements on their properties,
would mean thu coming buck to the
people ot I'O pur cent of the extra cost
through employing idle men, through
increasing Die operation of manufact
uring plants, inci easing tho ,wages tif
employees which in turn incieasos
trade all the way down the line, con
tributing to n lnri'cr business in every
I ,o of effrt. From Lincoln Trade

The Legislative Grind
l' e lone'is bill pioviding for eouit
records of land titles insleail of the
ahsliactei-s' cerhllcates has passed the
House aiul its sponsors claim that it
will go through the .Senate.
A bill providing for the slerillation
of cr'uiiual Insane was killed early in
Die session in the llotit hut a .similar
measure has passed Dm senate and is
again up for consideration by the
lower body. At Die se slou of IDlil
Dovcrnor Moreliead vetoed such a
measure.
The statu will have a a role oflioer

to travel over the state, in connection
witli Ids other duties cMimining Jails
and other public institutions, visiting

tiary, talking Willi their guardians ami

islamic generally believe that Iheie
should be no liquor iHglslallou and all

strangled in the house.
President Potts and Secretary Kich
mood nt the Legislative League have
practically llud Die date lor the next
annuel teiiuioii for'I'linrsday evening,
Match Is. A committee Is now work
ing on a piogram and definite an

week or so. All present and foimer
meiubeis of the Nebraska legislature
are eligible to membership and the
annual dues ate ll.iiu including the an
nual banquet.
Proposed constitutional amendments
for election of supreme judges by dis
tricts wo ti Introduced in Dm senate
and tliu house. The senate lias passed
its hill which provides for seven
judges to he olected by Congressional
dist i ids. The house bill will be
amended to read seven judges instead
of nine, as originally introdticad, but
it is proposed to establish supreme
judicial districts that will be moio
evenly balanced as to population than
the congressional disliicts There lire
icasons to believe that the question
will itsolvu Itself into a strict, party
matter in the house.
The State Railway Commission is
nol a popular body around the state
house. Public sentiment brands the
commission as sympathizing with the
coiporatious rather than with tho
public. Commissioner Dull is particu
larly unpopular and seems to be avid-
lug to the fuu'iug of resentment
.against the body that he assumo-i to
represent. He is vt-iy active in his
ell'orts to inlliiMiicii legislation, ap-
peaiiuc before onmmitieus and lobby
ing around the legislative halls much
ot the time.
Attorney (luueral Reed assumes- that
it is his duty to be llic'legal represen
tative of the Railway Commission as
much as for any other stale otlleer and
he has unfilled the commission flllclal
ly that he will talte ehaigc of HtigaMon
in the name of tli" sinte rather than
allow the commissii'ii to go outside to
imphiy special eouncl for which
I arte fees have been paid. Dr. Reeil
has taken a decided stand on several
inalleis of importance since lie as
Mimed the duties of his ollicc and us a
icsult slate ntllccis aie being compel
led to change their old free and easy
customs.
In order to adjourn for Saturday the
house put on extra steam Thursday
and worked steadily from nine o'clock
in the morning until alter ten o'clock
at night, holding committee meeting-,
u caucus of tho majority party aud u
night session. The senate held its
first Saturday session and worked in
dustiloiisly reporting bills for the
general (lies. It uow looks probable
that at the close of next week the
senate will have reported out about
all of the bills introduced In that
body that will ever bee the light. With
almost three times as many bills to
consider the lower body can hardly
hope to got through the list and a
sifting committee will have to bo in
voked.
There are a number of bleeding
necks about the stule house since
Chairman Norton of the house fluunce
committee introduced the general ap
propriation bills last week. If the
measures pass as originally drawn the
appropriations will be cut about S"G0,-
000 from the budget for the lust bien-
uium. Departments are being cut as
to salaries and Incidental expense;.
Employes in certain offices and boards
are being lopped off the pay roll and
salaries will be equalized as between
similar positions in Hie various otllc s.
All appropriation bills must oiigiuate
in the house, but they may be amend
ed when they reach tho senate. Jiiat
what will be the result after the
senators have had their say mid the
conference committees have gotten to
gether is dillluult to guess, but thert is
certain to be a big saving in gross
appropriations at the present session.
