Established on March 10, 1903 it passed under the control of C. S. Jackson on July 23 of that year. That is to say, the Journal, almost from its beginning has been in Mr. Jackson's hands. What he has made of it is told in yesterday's issue. That the business has been a ma terial success is evident from every aspect, a fact which, quite proper ly, must be pleasing to all connected with it. Of greater public import ance is the fact that the paper has set standards for itself and lived up to them. To us it has seemed at times that these standards were open to harsh criticism but we readily agree that this depends on the point of view and we agree further that the whole institution may not fairly be Judged on the basis of the idiosyn cracies of the publisher. Today the Journal reflects the personality of many men besides Mr. Jackson. Some of them, and es pecially Frank Irvine, the editor of the paper, have endeared themselves to the newspaper men of the state and it is as much on their account as on any other that we are glad to read of the success of the Institu tion. To the Journal, to them and to Mr. Jackson himself The Bulletin offers its congratulations. COMMUNICATIONS. EXPLAINS RATE CASE To The Editor: The Oregonian in its editorial of the 10th instant, "Inwardness of Terminal Rate Case" would give us to understand that the last word has been said on the subject of the inter mediate rate situation by the brief of counsel for the Portland Traffic and Transportation association in the Pacific Coast Terminal Rate Case. It is stated that if the inter-mountain country would read the brief with open minds we would at least begin to realize that we would profit by rail competition with water lines and would be injured if the railroads should be forbidden to so compete. The arguments set forth therein are almost verbatim the arguments advanced by the carriers in support of water competition more than 30. years ago and the position still main tained by them as well as the rate favored localities involved. Not one single new argument has been ad vanced by either. Realizing that preferential rates have been the most essential ele ment in determining the growth of cities and influencing manufacturing activities In the United States, par ticularly in the Eastern portion thereof, coast terminal points have joined with the carriers in adopting a policy that will be a vital influ ence in the growth and pre-eminence of favored localities on this coast by the construction of additional man ufacturing and distributing estab lishments, thus causing our vast in terior country to remain for all time merely a producing territory, served locally by "cow towns" and mining camps. Should the railroads and terminal points succeed in their applications before tlio Interstate Commerce Com mission a condition will again obtain which will permit const points to grow and prosper mid the carriers to continue their age-old poll"y of di viding the territory served by tliem into producing, manufacturing and consuming territories In cider to se cure ns ninny hauls as possible on all raw commodities before reaching the ultimate consumer. In the early days of railroading, in order to bind the wholo nation together and to encourage the use of railroads In thinly settled regions, It was a necessary part of the railroad strategy to fix frolght rates at the lowest possible point. As a result railroad freight rate were successive ly revised downward up to as late a period as 1916. Furthermore, the saasaatssaa " IfViiTjtJ ja"W ' Keeping His Word Jinks Jinkcns always kept his words through out his useful years, and when his funeral occurred the town was wet with tears. We'd planted bards at sundry times, and famous statesmen, too, and plutocrats whose stock of dimes was something fierce to view; and while we grieved to note their doom, and see their projects bust, we only wept around each tomb enough to lay the dust. For gifted gents and famous gents and gents with gorgeous rolls are commoner than twenty cents, and oft have tawdry souls. But when you meet that human bird with sunshine on his brow, who never goes back on his word, take off your hat and bow. He says he'll pay you what he owes when clocks are striking eight, and though through storm and fire he goes, he'll promptly keep the date. No promise lightly leaves his lips, but when his pledge is made, he never fails, he never slips, his word must never fade. He's an example to the town, a landmark good to see ; and when at last we lay him down beneath a churchyard tree, the briny tears in streamlets roll like waters in a rill, and in the town there is a hole it -will be hard to fill. rates were arranged to give preced ence to the long haul over the snort haul. It was to the interests of the railroads, since they have made their profits on the long hauls, rather than short hauls, to keep manufacturing localized in the east where it first developed and to prevent wide de centralization of manufacturing in the Western agricultural regions. The rates were also adjusted so as to give undue favoritism to the large eastern seaboard cities. This led to the building of gTeat centers of pop ulation In the east, specializing in manufacturing and the wide disper sal of agriculture In the middle and far west. The result was a long haul for manufactured articles westward and the long haul of agricultural products eastward. Some of the farm output was necessary to feed congested areas in the east, but in addition large amounts of it were raw materials for the factories of the east. It Is a little appreciated fact that factor ies secure three-fourths of their raw materials from farms and that fully one-half the farm products go long distances for manufacturing, pack ing, etc. Much of it then returns to the producer in its finished state up on which he pays two transporta tion charges. The fixing of rates, as indicated, was a part of a necessary stage In the economic development of the United States and criticism cannot justly be leveled against it. With out such an arrangement It is diffi cult to see how a continent so quick ly could have become a nation but the period when these things were necessary has passed. The country is now settled from coast to coast. There is no need of keeping any in dustrial development of one region artificially stimulated and another region artificially retarded. For other reasons not g'ermain to this subject the whole railway industry is under Intensive scrutiny and faces epochal changes. The matter of the long haul and the short haul Is likely to be changed in the general re-organization of the railway systems which is imminent. It seems likely that the railroads may soon be under the control of the gov ernment again and operated for ser vice rather than profit, and some other reformation that seems proba ble In the adjustment of rates on the basis of service rendered. This means that rates will probably be placed upon a mileage charge, plus a charge for terminal facilities. If this oc curs there will be a period decen tralization of manufacturing, then lo calization of Industry will no longer be profitable. Nearness to raw ma terials and especially nearness to market, will be recognized as fac tors to be considered in locating in dustries. The great centers of pop ulation in the east will be greatly affected. Without artificial support from the railroads the centers could not continue their Industrial supre macy. Insofar as tho eastern cities turn their attention to the manufac ture of articles using imported raw materials, or manufactured articles for export, their manufacturing plants could be retained and even in creased. The commodities needed by the people living in the east also could be manufactured in that re gion and the consuming market of the west would be removed from the dominance of eastern manufacturers and supplied by factories of our own. Under equal and non-discriminatory rates the interior would very likely witness a rapid increase In its indus trial activities. All the natural factors favoring manufacturing and jobbing are to be found In the Interior. Raw material from the farm and from the mines are easily available. Power and fuel are at band and living is cheap be cause of the prevalence of farms and manufacturing would rapidly in crease the population of the interior and cause further development of our farm lands which would help to share the present burdensome tax situation now levied upon the few. On the human side It Is far more de sirable to have a large number of relatively small factories and Jobbing houses scattered through the small cities and towns than to have this business forever concentrated In the When the ticker tape tells you that your fa vorite stock has gone up ten points .... you know what a lucky strike is.
