A test case is before the Oregon public service commis .":un to determine whether a railroad company can be forced to lose mony constantly in the operation of trains. Jn other words, when month after month shows losses, has a .railroad company the right to discontinue a train service. The .Southern Pacific railroad company has discontin ued several trains in sections where stage lines took the I'jcal business. The commission says the company mu.-,l pit hack the tiains and run them at a loss. Naturally, tlie company says it will not do it. We don't believe there is i.ny rhyme or reason in at- templing to I'oue any business concern to run its btisi Juss at. a loss h -mi it. desires to quit business in any de partment. If such is the case, wo have legislated far be yond the pales of common sense, to say the least, and probably to a point where confiscation can be brought in many instances.
