Many members also have business iierest that ton Urge though not n prpon- derating amount of bipt)inis ano all or nearly all members ride on passes when they ran net tbem. There are ways rl reaching a niuprii.v ami a very lanre majority of m-m- hers and the railroad ' usual y succeeds in reaching them efote any important piece of railroad lenMation is con consummat-!. But the bill to declare the pipe tines common carriers as already been introduced bj Mr. Rhinock, an obscure member from Kv.

If the Rhinook bill goes through, and there is every reason to believe it ought, and think it won't, the independent refiners and oil well owners will he given the greatest possible aid in their, strnsritle for existanre. The hill is only another move in what looks an attempt to net fair and open treatment for.i'1 shippers and to pre vent all profits of.tbe produ eer from being swallowed up in tn attempt togethiscom modify on the market. One of the features of t h e pndintr rate' bill that the railroads fear moi than the actual fact of rate reiristra- tion is according toCongress in an E-h, of Es-rh Town- send b'll fame, the publicity that will attach to their bus iness if the Interstate Com in-H'e Commission is really allowed to go after their sure there are some features of every business that may be properly regarded ae trade secrets and some'-on which th very '.success of the busN Uam depends But there is lit tM in the proposed publicity that will attacbjto the ruil- roads that any honest corpo ration ought to far, Yet the railroads do fear it and they tear according to Mr. EM'b, because they knw that publicity as to m a n y ot their practices mil solidify the sentimetit , for strict gov ernuientalsupervisionoftheir dealings with the shipping public Scarcely a day passes that the Interstate Commerce I'omiiiHSMin do not get i a .M tutiinit from some small hpp.r to th eff ct thut the railroad tariff b-twen. h i s factory town and his-nalural market threatens to entirely wipe out both his .business ami tbecommnnity id.,whicb that business is the chief sup port.
