READY fOR
Railroads projected and under con
struction, including only those that are
definitely forecasted in the plans of re
sponsible systems or as extentions of ex
isting companies independent of the trans
continental lines, represent the most gi
ganic building movement and largest in
vestment in capital in the Pacific North
west that has been made in any like ter
ritories of the United States for many
years. While it is contrary to the policy
of various companies to give their esti
mates to the public it is conservatively
estimated by railroad officials that there
will be expended in Oregon, Washington
and Idaho during 1 906-07 between $ 1 00.-
'ww,ww -Z - "'" which the
Hill. Harriman and St, Paul systems will
each expend about $25,000,000.

LESSONS f ROM ONE STATE
Franchise grabbing varies with the
state. The Middle West is stirred up
about it and the future looks darker there
for easy money. Massachusetts has in
operation a system which offers contrasts
to that so long worked in many cities and
staU's. Franchises thare are revocable.
Stock-watering is prohibited. Taxes are
actuilly collected on rail stack value
Franci.se are, in efTact, during good be-
.lavior, and yet there is no diiHcuJty in
providing capital to conduct all necessary
enterprises.
Under Massachusetts law the bonds
and stocks of the Metropolitan would be
between one-tli'rd and one-fourth what
they are now. Wnen more money is
raised by a railway in Missachusatts for
extension or improve nant. and' stock is
issued on it, it is not the company but the
State Railway Commissioners, wio fix
its worth. In cases of consolidation there
can be no increase in stocks and bonds
over those of companies combined. Be
tween some such control and the end of
private ownership in public utilities the
issue lies, and will be decided before many
years have passed. Collier's Weekly,
