Smith, local representatives of the Pennsylvania, met them at the Union Depot "Had It not been for the attitude of the National Government Oregon and Washington might get more capital to Invest in railroads." continued Mr. Moody. "The agitation aroused by this action stirred members of the State Legislatures to follow the lead. When ever a Legislature wanted to do some thing they hit the railroads. As a re sult we have been proceeding In an uncertain manner, not knowing what would como next." He added that the railroad Interests of the East were glad that the control of the National Government has been divided between the two great politi cal parties by the recent election, as In this way neither will be able to do much harm. The railroads now can make some Improvements and spend some money on extensions, he said. Botli men are of the opinion that it is economically Impossible for a rail road to operate its passenger business, even in the most congested districts, on a I-eent-a-mlle basis.
