MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR.
Walla Walla, La Grande and othei
towns of the Inland Empire with
ambition to become distributing
points, or to secure for their mer
chants the lowest rates from East
ern points, are joining In with Spo
kane in the greit fight for Justice t
the lnter-mojn aln regio.i. Tliei
towns are becoming parties with Spo
kane in the big suit that is to bi
heard to determine the Justice of tht
demands made by Spokane, ant
which were partially" decided in he!
favor a few month3 ago. If Spokan.
wins in the big hearing, all town,
that Join in the suit will surely
be named ai beneficiaries of Uu
lower rates as well as Spokane.
The present status of the flgh
and the great Interests at stake ar.
admirably set fo.th in this edltoria
from the Spoke imanRevlew, headei
'A -Million Dollars a Year":
A Mi lion Dollar a, Year.
If the Inland Empire had termlna
rates Its freight bill on merchandist
shipped from the east would be cu
down $l,0O0,O0J a year. In the last 2
years the people of the Inland Em
pire have paid out, at a conservative
calculation, $15,000,000 In excessdvt
rates on shipments from the eas
alone.
If It should cost Spokane $100,00
to carry to Baeceiaful completion it
fight before the interstate commerce
commission the cost would be but a
fraction of what this city pays ever?
year in excesilve lrelght rates..
But the sum actually paid In ex
cess of reasonable charges are onl
a small part of tin real cost of un
Just rates levied upon this city ani
the surrojndlng country, Dlscrlml
nation In favor of the Coast e!Ue
throttles business in the Interior
makes alow growtii for the country 'i
Industries and 'prohibits In a larg
measure the building up of manufact
urlng.
In the course o! the last 10 year
hundreds of manufacturers who con
templated the building of plants ii
the Pacific northwest have come intc
the Inland Empire and found tht
field Inviting, but, when their invest
gallon showed that freight rates
were burdensome, went on to the
Coast and located there.
Railroad disci lmlnaUon, and noth
Ing else, has put two-thlrda of the
population of Washington state upon
less than one-third of the state's
area west of the Cascade mountains
Eastern Washington ha3 the agrl-
cultural wealth; It grows 99 per cent
o the state's wheat yle'.d; it has all
the rich irrigated lands, the big com
mercial orchards, the live stock and
the mineral we-ilth, but these ' re
sources have been handicapped by ex
ceislve and dUcrlminating . freight
rates.
Spokane sits in the center of a vast
region that has much greater poten
tial wealth tnan the region around
Seattle and Tacama. It is 400 miles
nearer the eastern markets and fac
tories; has tue greatest railroad
jystem west of the Missouri river,
and if freight ratas had been right
t would be the largest city In' the
Jtate today.
Walla Walla, Wenatchee, Pasco,
Colfax, PendleUn, Baker City, and
at her Interior towns have ail had
.heir growth re a.ded by -the In
justice of excessive freight rates.
And this is also true of all other in-
and cities wet of Denver.
At last vlc.ory and justice seem
tear at hand. The interstate com
nerce commls Ion has decided, that
relght rates to a 1 Interior . points
ire excessive, .ni In the Spokane
:ase decls oa laid down a principle
f rjtd revision for the railroads to
.wopt. But tae railroads, reluctant
o give up a part of their excessive
iaruings, have brought forward a
.eheiue of revised rates that doe.;
.ot square wkh tae commission's de
Ision, and they are using every
.rtifice to hoodwink the public, de-
el ve the commission and cheat the
interior.
if the large interests of Spokane
vill provide the means needed to
lluch the decision the long fight will
,oon end in victory. It may be
ecesaary to de.end the decision In
he courts, and some time and money
All surely be required to complete
.he application of the commission's
indings; but all that expense and
:ffort, with all that has gone before,
vlll be a trifle compared with just
relght rates 1,000,000 saved . each
ear, and the profits and payrolls
t hundreds of new factories.
