Spokane, Sept. 15. "One of the
many surprises in this wonderful in
land empire of the west which mem
bers of our party and myself are un
able to understand, is how your bus
iness and professional men, energetic
and enterprising as they must be to
keep in the van of progress, could af
ford to give so much valuable time
to our entertainment and comfort."
Baron Eiichl Shibusawa, head of
the honorary commercial commission
ers of Japan said this In the course
of an interview before leaving Spo
kane on the journey eastward. He
added:
"There are many things which the
oriental mind falls to grasp, but the
foremost of these Is what I have men.
tioned. In the orient the cheapest
things are time and labor, while in
America they are the highest. I ap
preciate the fact that minutes mean
dollars to the Americans and why
your professional men, mechanics and
laborers are paid what to us would be
princely incomes, but I cannot un
derstand how hundreds of your bus
iest men could lay everything aside
for three days, as you have during
our stay in Spokane, solely for the
purpose of making our visit one of
pleasure and profit. We shall long
remember the warm friendship, hos
pltality and kindly courtesy of the
people of Spokane and the inland
empire."

Spokane, Wash., Sept. 15. Ship
pers in Spokane and throughout the
Inland empire, where enormous ton
nage In grains, fruits, timber and
minerals Is offered to railroads, be
lieve that the action of the state rail
road commission of Washington in
ordering the Northern Pacific Rail
way company forthwith to reduce Its
freight rates on grain to 87 1-2 per
cent of the tariff published on June
30, 1909, will have a salutary effect
all over the northwest. Though the
cut of 12 1-2 per cent applies only
on the Northern Pacific main line In
the state, it will save the shippers
from one to one and a half cents a
bushel or between $50,000 and J500,
000 a year.
The reduction, based on the find
ing that the company's profits are
more than $1,000,000 a year exclu
sively on state business over a 7 per
cent annual revenue on the Invest
ment, Is taken to mean that inquiry
may be made Into other tonnage, the
carrier charges on which are declar
ed to be unreasonable, excessive and
exorbitant. The significant portion
of the commission's finding Is best
told In its own words, In part as fol
lows: "We have found the value of the
Northern Pacific Railway company's
property in the state used for the
public to be $111,374,950, divided
$45,703,730 for state use and $66,
871,219 for interstate use.
"We have found as facts that the
net earnings of the company from
state business were $4,978,273 for
1906, $5,174,047 for 1906, $5,600,373
for 1907, and $6,223,943 for 1908.
"The earnings of the Washington
& Columbia river branch are not in
eluded In the earnings for 1905-6-7,
so the value of the property used
would be correspondingly reduced
The value of Its property used for
state business during 1905-6-7 would
not exceed $42,500,000.
"The estimated net earnings of the
company from state business for 1908
exceeds $8,450,000, thus showing a
net return from state business for the
five years under consideration of 11.7
per cent, 12.17 per cent, 13.17 per
cent. 13.62 per cent,, and 17.51 per
cent, respectively. That this return
with the percentage Increasing year
ly, is excessive is clearly evident, '
The finding shows that grain
amounted to 16.97 per cent of the to
tal state tonnage carried by the com
pany over its lines In Washington
and to 45.07 per cent of the total ten
miles, and furnished 33.99 per cent
of the total state revenue received by
the company In 1908. Sixteen million
bushels of grain was carried by the
company. Tne cose or movement, ex
clusive of taxes. Interest of dividends
was approximately $.9668 a ton, while
the average receipt per ton was ap
proximately $3.02, the moving cost
being approximately 32. 01 per cent
of the gross earnings, the operating
expenses of the road on all Its busi
ness being 64.11 per cent of the gross
receipts.
Carload merchandise constituted
11.54 per cent of the state tonnage
and 14.84 per cent of the ton miles,
while It contributed 19.16 per cent of
the total state earnings, and the cost
of moving was only 25.89 per cent
of the gross earnings. Less than car
load merchandise constituted 3.83 per
cent of the tonnage, 3 5 per cent of
the ton miles, and contributed 16.26
per cent of the total state earnings
the cost of moving being 51.93 per
cent of the gross earnings therefrom
