measures the lawful charges of the car-
iers. ine enactment or tne long ana
short haul clause was deemed a publio
necessity, it is nothing more than an
extension to places of the rule forbidding
unjust discriminations between persons..
The operation of the long and short
haul provision is stated to feave been un
satisfactory under the construction put
upon it by the commission and accepted
generally by the carriers. But the effect
of the conrt of appeals in an Iowa case,
wherein the word "line" in the statute
was given a wholly different meaning
from that which the commission had
held was the proper construction, has
been startling. This court decision has
been followed and expanded by other
courts. These.decisions'hold, in effect,
that one railroad is a line and that the
same another roid is a different line and
that these railroads are still another line
and so on and that the rates of one line
are not to "be compared with rates on
another."
The commission holds that the word
'line" means a physical line, the tracks

eidmng that it took; three months
to do it. The laws ot trade are
more powerful thm the laws of
Congress. The panio came just
)ike comets come, and it will go
just like the comet goes. Like
the comet, it caaue unexpected,
jjbut it takes longer for it to dis
appear, foi confidence is a plaDt
of slow growth. r
So far as trade is concerned,
we see no difference between now
and a year ago. The stores are
thronged with customers, espe
cially from the country. Cotton
does not bring a good price, but
there is lots of it, and the kind
hearted farmtr will spend some
of the proceed? on his wife and
children. Hats and cloaks and
Sunday shoes must be had. Cot
ton Keeps on rolling m ana tne
last little boll has opened. The
Ute fall and beautiful weather
has added not less than 2Q per
cent, to the crop in north ueor
gia, and almost every farmer is
selling some and keeping some
back for a higher price. It may
go to 8 cents next spring, but I
believe the time has passed and
passed forever when cotton will
bring more than 8 cents. Its av
erage, will probably be 7 cents,
for there will be uo more short
crops. The yearly increase of
acreage in Texas will rr ate up
for -all disasters elsewhere. There
is still a world of unsettled land
out there and it is being .settled
by immigration. They can make
cotton at 5 cents a pound and
thev will keep on making it. The
and potatoes are plentiful. Ev
erything the farmer has to sell
brings a f ur prico except wheat.
The big crops in the west and
low rates of freight hav brought
wheat down. The silver question
had nothing to do with it, but

that about our people, but it does
seem like the fools and
together raise a powerfnl commo
tion. If an intelligent stranger
should come over here) from Eu

be amazed and bewildered, and
finally would set us down with

lieved that "tramp vessels on tne laees,
operating under fluctuating rates, pre
vent the "regular lines rrom publishing
through rates in connection with rail
carriers. But certain methods pursued
by the "regular" lines are as obnoxious
aa those or the "tramp vessels.
Further statements are made with re
gard to publication of rates for water
and rail transportation, ana recommen
dation is made for amendment, so as
to bring these water carriers under the
law. . " !
The commission recommends addi
tional legislation on the following sub
jects:
1. With respect to. proceedings to en
force the lawful orders of the compa
nies.
2. To srive legislative construction to
the word "line" in the statute.
3. To provide for establishing through
routes and joint through rates.
4. To give the commission power to
prescribe minimum as well as maximum
rates to competitive points.
5. To provide for the adoption of a
uniform rate for the classification.
6. To make corporations subject to
the act liable to indictment for violations
of the law
7. To provide a penalty for failure on
the part of carriers to hie their annual
reports within a specified time,
The commission also calls the atten
tion of congress to the subjects generally
considered in the body of the report and
suggestions therein made with a view to
the further extension of the act by ad1
ditional amendments.
