manifestations. . He .wrote many ' books

From these beginnings sprang modern

"The tall does not wag th dog" Is a
characteristic semi-official utteranc of
th Northern Pacific people that teada
to ahow how th Northern Pacific
freight department regards th petition
of the Spokan Strippers' association for
freight rates which ,wH aOowtbem to
Invade th coast cities territory;
Th history, of th Spokan fight a
given by th Northern Pacifies, freight
department differs somewhat from pub
lished statements. , It U as follows:,
Tho Spokan association decided on
day that th rates on th Northern Pa
cific wer too high. Forthwith a boycott
was declared on tho' roao arid all busi
ness was turned over to the O. R. N.
Thls with no notice or complaint to
th road or its agents. Th boycott .was
mad effective but it did not-gain th
desired end and th road continued to
operate. Then representatives of th
Spokane, association verbally ", Informed
th Northern Pacifio agent in that city
that m truce would b declared If th
Northern Pacific and th Great North
ern woul. make th desired rate. la
reply they war Informed that a written
complaint and jtamnt of wrongs
would b th west way to secur a con
ference. Th association bad presented
It statement vof wrongs and receiving
ho reply bad alleged 'that Its demands
'centnve of increase, but adds T4 mare
voters to her registry lists than were wr Ignored and then declared th boy
added at Beattl and ( mor than were i cott. The -Northern - Pacifto fflclals
added to tn PorUand list. " - . jrepUad Uut th geaa44 wera saieXiiUl
considered, som rates were given aa
asked, others wer reduced and som
maintained.. -
After th Informal getting together
th shippers sent a telegram to th two
roads saying that If a conference was
held in 19 days at Spokan with th
sclatlon and leading; freight officii of
th lines th boycott would be held up
for 80 days. To this telegram Jooepb
Blabon, fourth, vice-president . of the
Great Northern, and J. M. Hannaford.
traffic manager of th Northern Pacific,
replied in effect that Spokan - would
seat forget about tho boycott, and that
a conference could be arranged at either
SC Paul, or Chicago, where the head
quarters of th -companies wer, and
where the records wer kept .Th ship
pers did not accept the conditions of th
companies but. agreed to .bold, off th
boycott for SO days awaiting th decis
ion of th company and in this uncertain
position th mattter stands. -
The position of th Northern Pacific
Lis given out by th freight department
as follows:
"First. Spokane can not expect to re
ceive consideration while trying, to club
tn roaa into un ny a Boycott, -
"Second, the chief officiate of th road
are busy men and while ready to bear
complaints can not drop official duties
and -travel to Spokan at the beck and
sod of any body of shippers.
"Third. Spokane business men can not
hop to receive rates that will seriously
Interfere with existing conditions and
place other business- centers In a posi
tion wher their interests are Jeopard
ized. .
"Fourth, to scur best results
schedule of rates should be mad by
th asssociatlon which will be consid
ered to serve th Interests of Spokan
without ' greatly injuring other Jdbbin
center and' this should be presented by
a committee of the association to th
officials at St Paul or Chicago where
final, action can b taken. .
