Legislative Candidates for
State Railway Board.
MASS MEETING AT COLFAX
Harold Preston, Aspirant for United
States Senator, States Hts View
Senator Turner Sends a Tele-
Craxu Xo Pledges Exacted.
COLFAX, Wash., June 7. About 200
people of all classes attended the mass
convention held here today to pledge
prospective candidates for legislative po
sitions to support Governor McBrlde in
his efforts to secure a railroad commis
sion bill and destroy the railroad lobby.
The meeting was presided over by a Pro
hibitionist. The secretary was a Demo
crat, and It was addressed by Republi
cans, Democrats and Socialists. After
the meeting had adjourned and the au
dience started out, Hon. John Canutt, ex
representatlve, a Populist, offered a reso
lution Indorsing McBride's action and
favoring a railroad Commission. Canutt
and one other voted for it, and five votes
were cast against the motion.
Harold Preston, of Seattle, candidate
for United States Senator, was the prin
cipal speaker, and devoted nearly an hour
to advocating a railroad commission. In
reply to a question by a farmer., he said
he favored Government ownership of
railroads in time, but thought the coun
try not ready for it jiow. He was listen
ed to attentively and frequently ap
plauded. The following telegram from Senator
Turner was read by Harry Corn well, and
rcrelvcd liberal applause:
"I have no enmity against the railroads.
They are important factors In the growth
and development of our state. But they
have too much power for evil as well as
good to permit them to work their will
without restraint. They are public agen
cies, created by law to serve the public
on a fair and Just basis. They ought to
be controlled by law, und ought to be will
ing to be controlled. Holding these
views, I drafted and advocated the pro
viso of our state constitution requiring
the Legislature to pass laws regulating
freights and fares and establishing a rail
road cqmmlssion. I am strongly Impress
ed today with the necessity for such
laws as I have ever been. The State
Legislature should carry out the impera
tie mandate of the constitution and es
tablish a railway commission, with am
ple powers to control the public agencies.
The National laws should be so that the
interstate commerce commission may do
for interstate commerce what a state
commission would be enabled to do for
state commerce. I have expressed my
views on this subject on a number of oc
carlons in the past. So long as 1 remain
in public life the foregoing views will
govern my conduct.'
State Senator Oliver Hall, Dr. G. B.
Wilson, a candidate for State Senator;
William Goodyear, Democratic candidate
for Senator, artd Ex-Iteprcsenratlve La
follrtte. Republican, and Thomas Neill,
a Socialist, addressed the meeting. All
but Neill favored a commission.
