EDITORIAL. .'
On the whol6, the special session of
'the Legislature, called by Governor
Craig to receive the report of the
Constitutional Commission and de
devise ways and means for a settle
ment of the freight rate controversy,
did well. Nothing the people expect
ed it to do was left undone. The pro
position secured by the Corporation
Commission from the railroads, relat
ing to inter-state rates was accepted
on the advice of the Governor. But
the Assembly did not stop with this
concession from the carriers. A strin
gent law was enacted for the" regula
tion of intra-state rates, with neces
sary machinery to guarantee its en
forcements Goverrr Craig and a
special commission to be selected by
him willj; endeavor to correct any
al.uses that may appear to exist in the
matter of i intra-state shipments. To
enumerate:.
The recent session of the General
Assembly was in session exactly
twenty days. During this time 497
bills and nineteen resolutions were en
rolled and ratified. The principal
measures passed are: The bill submit
I ting nine amendments to the consti
; tution ; (these will be voted on by tha
people at the next general election.)
resolution accepting inter-State freight
rate proposition offered by the car
j riers; bill reducing intra-state freight
. rates and providing a special commis
sion to investigate the claims of the
railroads that the rates proposed are

Corporation Commission with a rate
