THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1909.
MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR.
Walla Walla, La Grande and othe
towns of th3 Inland Empire with
ambition to become distributing
points, or to secure for their mer
chants the lowest rates from East
ern points, are Joining In with Spo
kane in the great fight for Justice to
the inter-mo jnaln region. These
towns are becoming parties with Spo
kane in the big suit that is to be
heard to determine the Justice of the
demands made by Spokane, ant
which were partially deeded in he
favor a few months ago. If Sjkaiu
wins in the big hearing, all towns
that Join in the suit will sure'.y
be named a) beneficiaries of the
lower rates as well as Spokane.
The present status of the fign'
and the great interests at stake ar
admirably set fo.th in this edltoria
from the Spoke iman-Revlew, headec
"A .Million DolUrs a Year":
A Mi lion Dollar a Year.
If the Inland Empire had termina
rates its freight bill on merchandise
shipped from the eist would be cu
down J1.0O0.00) a year. In the last 20
years the people of the Inland Em
pire have paid out, at a conservativt
calculation, $15,000,000 In excessive
rates on shipments from the east
alone.
If It should cost Spokane $100,600
to carry to sjcceis.'ul completion its
fight before tie Interstate commerce
commission the cost would be but a
fraction of what this city pays every
year in excessive lreight rates.
But the sum j actually paid in ex
cess of reaoaable charges are only
a small part of thj real cost of -un
Just rates levied upon this city and
the surrounding country. Discrlml
nation i.i favor o' the Coast cities
throttles ' business In the interior,
makes slow growti for the country's
industiie3 and prohibits in a large
measure the building up of manufact
uring. In the coarse o? the last 10 years
hundreds of manufacturers who con
templated the building of plants In
' the Pacific northwest have come into
the Inland Empire and found the
field inviting, but, when their invest!
gation showed that freight rates
were burdensome, went on to the
Coast and locate 1 there.
Railroad disci imination, and noth
ing else, has put two-thirds of the
papulation of Washington state upon
less than one-third of the state's
area west of the Cascade mountains.
Eastern Washington has the agri
cultural wealth; it grows 99 per celt
of the state's wheat yie'd; it has all
the rich irrigated lands, the big com
jmerclal orchards, tlie live stock and
the mineral we 1th, but these re
t sources have been handicapped by ex
Jces3lve and dl .criminating freight
I rates.
Spokane sits in the center of a vast
region that has much greater poten
tial wealth tuan the region around
Seattle and Taoma. It is 400 miles
nearer the eastern market and fac
tories; lias tae greatest railroad
system west of the Missouri river.
and if freight rates bad been right
it would be the largest city in the
state today.
Walla Walla, Wenatchee, Pasco,
Colfax, Pendletcn, Baker City, and
other interior towns have all had
.heir growth, re a.ded by the in
justice of exceislve freight rates.
And this is also true of all other in
.and cities we U of Denver.
At last vlcory and Justice seem
uear at hand. Tha interstate com
merce commission has decided that
.reight rates to e l interior points
are excessive, and in the Spokane
rnae decision laid down a principle
it rate revision for the railroads to
adopt. But the railroads, reluctant
io give up a part of their excessive
earnings, have brought forward a
jcheme of revised tales that does
tot square wl h tae commission's de
jision, and taejr are using every
artifice to hoodwink the public, de
e..e tue commission and cheat the
.nterior. t
If the large interests of Spokane
111 provide the means needed to
clinch the decision the long fight will
ioon end in victory. It may be
lecessary to de.'eud the decision in
he courts, and some time and nionej
111 surely be required to com pie e
.he application of the commission's
lndiugs; but all that expense and
sffort, with all tnat has gone before,
111 be a trl.le compared with Just
relght rates 1,000,000 saved each
ear, and the profits and payrolls
it hundreds of new factories.
New Rugs From Old Carpets.
"in almost every home there .are
isually to be found some carpet.,
hat because of either shabbiness or
ixtreme ugliness have been banishe..
o the attic," says Woman's Home
.'ompanion for September. "These
an be turned into a most attractive
and of rug. The carpets are sent
o the maker, who has them cleaner
aid raveled and then woven into a
soft, fluffy sur.'aee of nondescript
one. with a border of contrasting
:olor. These 'fluff rugs' are anions
.he beH of the cheap rugs and do not
aok cheap at all, and it is a pleasant
mrprise to see how many useful and
.harming rugs can be made from a
.eemlngly hopeless old carpet. To
iave them made costs about one
iollar a square yard, making the
weivey-nine sue coat twelve do -ars.
The maker usually pays ex
press charges one way."
