TJie English tjovoinment has been tor a long time past enga ged in making an exhaustive emptily into the schedules of maximum rates and charges of the railroads of the country. The investigation has just been concluded, and the published result h axactly what any one acquainted with the workings of our competitive system could have foreseen from the outset. As the London journal, Indus tries, puts it: "One of the most, remarkable circumstances that has been brought to light in the eourreof tliis enquiry is the fact that no common basis of raihvav rates and charges at present exists, after nearlj seventy years' experience of railway transport, that has any claim to be regarded as exact and scientific. Railway rates are levied in the most haphazard and unsatisfactory." The re markable circumstance would he if it werv otherwise, for rail road owners, like other people under our present system, con scientiously do their duty to themselves and their families by charging all the traffic will bear. Rut does anyone suppose that, if the railroads were in the hands of the people whose only anxiety would be to get the maximum of result with the minimum of effort we should let a twelve-month pass over our heads without arriving at an exact knowledge of the cot of transportation?
