Washington Agitation Over
Railroad Rates.
COMPLETE RECORD OF OREGON LEGISLATURE
EASTERN PART PRIME MOVER i 1
Republicans Would Head Off Step,
but Transportation Companies
Will Not Assist br Xccensary
Cat In the Charges.
OLYMPIA, Wash.. Feb. 24. The two
important developments of the legislative
week were the passage of the Jones re
apportionment bill and the defeat of the
Tolman railway commission bill. The de
feat of the latter measure ends the pos
sibility of the creation of a railway com
mission at this session of the Legislature,
and leaves the rate question the only one
to be determined.
The railroads have announced in plain
terms that they will not submit to the
passage of a bill reducing rates on agri
cultural products without a fight in the
courts. They are using every means with
in their power to defeat the passage of
such a bill by the Legislature, but they
have determined not to let the matter
rest there, if it goes against them.
Everyone familiar with Washington pol
itics Is aware that the railroad question
is a burning one. It is the vital issue In
Eastern Washington, and has upon one
or two occasions, including the present
one, resulted In the sending of a Demo
cratic delegation to the Legislature from
that section. Many Republican leaders
fear that the failure to pass a rate bill
at this session will result in augmenting
the Democratic majorities east of the
mountains two years hence.
As a result of this, many Republicans
are asserting that the railroads should
submit to & slight reduction in agri
cultural rates at the present session
rather than run the chance of a Demo
Pop Legislature two years hence, when a
United States Senator Is to be elected.
These men take the position that the Re
publican leaders, or most of them at
least, have aided the roads In the defeat
of the two drastic commission bills, and
that the latter should now reciprocate,
and consent to a slight reduction In rates.
That the roads will not consent to this
plan is evident. They have submitted to
the Legislature a system of figures show
ing that rates in this state of mountains
and deserts are lower than in the great
wheat-raising prairie states of the East.
They assert that they are now hauling
grain at as low a rate as the traffic will
bear, and that any reduction is out of
the question.
From a political standpoint the roads
take the attitude that the bulk of votes
is on the west side of the mountains, a
section that is not at all interested In the
question of ralroad rates. The new ap
portionment bill Increases the ratio of rep
resentation on the west side very materi
ally over that of the east side, and the
former under any ordinary circumstances,
it Is said, can bo safely depended upon
to .elect practically a solid Republican
legislative -delegation.
There is much truth in this railroad
contention, and it practically settles one
fact, namely, that Western Washington,
in the future, will be Republican, and that
Eastern Washington normally will be
Democratic. This Insures Washington as
a Republican state, but it also means that
in the not very distant future there will
be ablg agitation for .state division on
thc?i$t side.
To a certain extent the Interests of the
two sections are diametrically opposed to
each other. The bulk of the people on
the west side are opposed to a reduction
In railroad rates, which means the plac
ing of Eastern Washington products.
aside from wheat, which does not enter
into this matter. In the Puget Sound mar
kets In competition with the produce of
the smaller farmers and fruitgrowers on
the west side. Sooner or later the agita
tion fcr division of the state Is bound to
come.
The reapportionment bill, although it
has passed both houses, is not yet ready
for enrollment and formal presentation to
the Governor for his signature. The
House has slightly amended the bill, and
the Senate will have to concur in the
amendment, as it is a merely formal one.
and included a few precincts In Snohomish
County which were overlooked In draft
ing the bllK The Senate will doubtless
concur tomorrow, and the bill will be pre
sented Jo the . Governor either late to
morrow afternoon or Tuesday morning.
It Is not yet certain what the Governor
will do with the bill. Some profess to be
lieve that he will veto it," and by threats
of other vetoes compel enough Republi
cans to vote against the passage of the
bill over the veto to Insure its defeat.
Others believe that he will content himself
with writing a strong veto message, and
permit the majority to pass It without
further Interference. Still others believe
that he will permit it to become a law
without his signature, an.d content himself
with a strong statement of his postion to
the public. Very few people believe that
he will sign the bill.
As a matter of fact, there is consider
able Republican opposition to the bill, but
as it has been made a caucus measure,
it is not thought that any Republicans
will vote against its passage unless Gov
ernor Rogers resorts to very heroic meas
ures to encompass its defeat.
Just at present the outlook for the
passage of the Thurston County Court
house bill Is more favorable than it has
been for some time. The Democrats in
the House are flirting with Olympia, and
thereby hangs a tale. When Senator
' Hamilton, of Pierce, started his fight on
the Jones reapportionment bill, he made
a combination' with the Democrats, and
agreed to go down the line with them
against It. The friends of the bill saw
that Hamilton, with his combination of
Democrats and disgruntled Republicans,
would probably beat the bill, and he was
accordingly placated. The result was
that he abandoned his alliance with the
Democrats, signed the Republican caucus
call, and supported the bill.
After the measure had passed the
House Thursday, Cameron, of Lincoln,
one of the Democratic floor leaders, gained
recognition. "I desire," he said, "to pre
sent my compliments to Pierce County;
the lion and the lamb have lain down to
gether, but "
Just at this interesting point the gen
tleman from Lincoln was called down on
hal fa dozen points of order, and his har
rangue that promised so well was nipped
in the bud. After adjournment, however,
Cameron declared that he would vote for
the courthouse bill In order to get even
with Tacoma for throwing down the Dem
ocrats In the reapportionment fight. Other
Democrats have made the same state
ment. Heretofore it has been believed that the
Democrats would vote almost solidly
against the courthouse bill, and In favor
of removing the captial to Tacoma. but
if they should decide to support Olympia
it would aid the cause of the latter town
very much.
There are rumors that Republicans will
caucus on Ulmer's bill to abolish the
State Board of Audit and control, and
pass it if Governor Rogers vetoes the re
apportionment bill, or rather, if he uses
executive pressure to enforce his veto.
The intent of Ulmer's bill is to take the
patronage of the state institutions away
from Rogers and give is to the Republi
cans. There is a-serious doubt as to the
constitutionality of the measure, but sev
eral Republicans say they could give the
Governor a very unpleasant time of it if
they saw fit.

OUR EXPORTS TO RUSSIA
HAVE BEEN LITTLE OVER $4,000,
OOO A YEAR SNCE 1805.
Theie Figures Are Based on Official
Returns Common Report Has Had
$30,000,000 the Amount.
"WASHINGTON. Feb. 24. Exports of
manufactures from the United States to
Russia do not amount to $30,000,000 per
year," as has been asserted, nor have they
ever reached one-fourth that sum. This
assertion is sustained by the official fig
ures of both the United States and Rus
sia. According to the figures of the
United States Bureau of Statistics, ex
ports of manufactures to Russia range
from $3,000,030 to $4,000,000 per annum, and,
according to the Russian official statistics,
they have averaged a little over $4,000,000
a year since 1S95, the earliest date at
which the detailed figures of Russian im
ports 'are obtainable.
The Russian statement of total imports
of goods of all classes originating in the
United States have never, save in two ex
ceptional years, shown as much as $30,
000.000, and have averaged since 1S95 less
than $25,000,000 per annum, and of this
sum more than three-quarters represents
raw cotton, which is not affected by the
recent order of the Russian Government.
.Much of the American cotton imported
into Russia Is bought in the markets of
Europe, and thus, while represented in tho
Russian importations as of American or
igin, does not show in the, export state
ments from the United States, because it
is sent from this country direct to the
great cotton markets of Europe, Liver
pool .and Bremen, and thence Is distrib
uted to Russian and other interior states
of Europe.
The reports of the United States Gov
ernment only show total exports to Rus
sia of about $10,000,000 per annum, while
those of the Ru-ian Government rhow
Imports of American products averaging
about $25,000,030 per annum; but an analy
sis of the two statements shows that the
discrepancy is chiefly In cotton, which
discrepancy is accounted for as above
indicated.
In merchandise other than cotton the
Russian and United States figures corre
spond quite as closely as could be ex
pected in view of the fact that the United
States fiscal year terminates June 30, and
that of Russia December 31. Taking the
figures of either country or of both, and
comparing them year by year, it is found
that the total exports from the United
States to Russia of all articles, exclusive
of raw cotton, averaged in 1S99 and 1900
about $S.COO,000 per annum, and prior to
that time had averaged but about $4,000.
000 per annum. This $S,000,CO0 of exports
other than cotton, includes live animals,
books, maps and engravings, breadstuffs,
chemicals, coal, copper, green, dried and
preserved fruits, malt and spirituous
liquors, bags and tagging, parafflne, cotton-seed
oil, animal oils, furniture, patent
medicines cars and carriages, agricul
tural Implements, and manufactures of
iron and. steel. Of the total exports to
Russia from the United States in the
fiscal year 1900", only $5,132,000 consisted pt
iron and steel manufactures and agricul
tural implements, which classes Include
the chief articles affected by the recent
order. A careful analysis of both the ex
port statement of the United States and
the Import statement of Russia justifies
the conclusion that the exportation from
the United States to Russia of the classes
of articles named by the recent order
amounted In 19C0, the year .of our largest
exports to that country, to less than
$6,000,000.
