tion between carriers of freight. Tha
rallwaya have a way of grouping terri-
tory or designating place as "eemmsa
potnta" and giving to each tha same rata.
The a again they often give to towne to
"cammoa point" territory that bars com-
peting lines of railway lower rates than
tbey give ta ether nearby tow ran that
hav ao competition. Thla will suggest
ta you probably the lac a of point In your
question to me on this line.
As stated th Ualreaton-Houstoa dif-
ferential la a question local to those
two cities which ss stated In the memo-
randa to my motion to reduce the cotton
rates may soon be settled by giving to
Houston the same ocean rales that Gal-
veston has. and to Galveston the same
railroad rates that Hnueton has. This
will be done by Ike Improvement of 4uf-
falo bayou and III navigation by larger
ateamera just as the government made It
possible for tba largest steamers to pass
over the bar to the entrance to Galveston
harbor. Personally I have always felt
sn Interest In In development of Galves-
ton and the commission has done all It
could to build It up as against New
Orleans and 1 can have ao quarrel with
you shout Galveston for I sm snd have
been as good a friend to thst city as
yourself. '
Cotton Rates.
But the people have a lust quarrel
with the comtnlsston for allowing the
present exorbitant rates on cotton to
stand ss long ss they have. In a former
letter addressed to the chairman of the
commission while yea criticised tho basis
proposed by myself yet you criticised
and Justly the present high rates. The
rate on cotton Is one that every cotton
producer Is Interested In. It Is contended
by some thst a reduction in the rate
would not go to the producer but Mr.
J. W. Allen aa experienced and well In-
formed general freight agent was csn-
dld enough to say that he believed any
reduction made would benefit the pro-
ducer but added that the reduction to
each would be too small to be of special
benefit to each Individual producer. Mr.
A. B. atlckney president of the Chicago
and Northwestern railway tn his splen-
did little book entitled "The Railway
Problem" shows by the following Illus-
tration thst the cost of getting such
products to market comes out of ths
vslue of the product. He says:
"For example. It should be known that
when corn Is worth 2S cents per bushel
In the Chicago market at the railway
station west of the Missouri river It
would be worth from It to 11 cents ths
difference between Its vslue la the far
west and In Chicago being mad up of
cost of transportation the expenses of
buying and selling and a profit to the
middlemen."
Mr. Paul Morton then an official of
(he Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe rail-
way system and now secretary of the
nsvy. testified at a former bearing be-
fore this commission that an Increase In
ths rstea lo Chicago waa followed by a
reduction In the price paid In the West
to th farmer for his grain. And Mr.
Btlckney states rn his book that th very
low rates on grata to Chicago prevailing
during th fight between a Duluth and
Chicago line resulted In tha payment of
much better prices for grain. I think It
clear that If all th grain carried Into
Chicago was hauled for nothing tha West-
em farmer could get practically the
Chicago price for his wheat at his rail-
way station. And I think ths Texaa cat-
ton raiser would practically get the Liv-
erpool price for his cottoa at his Texaa
station If he could get tt carried to Liv-
erpool for nothing.

ootnmerc of th State a much a tag as
that levied to pay th eateries of the
coexmlsaeonerm. it waa staled at ths
hearing by at least on rallied witness
that at per cent of th revenue of bis
road was derived from cottoa. while th
annual report of tola commlsasou ahew
that lea than ft par cent ef th tonnage
carried during twalv months by ths Tex-
aa road consisted of eottcn.
Think of It. Ninety-five per cent ef
the lonnag carried by the Texaa rail-
roads pays U per cent of their earnings
while the ether ft per cent of tonuage
pays B per cent of the earnings and the
latter being on the State a principal crop
on which It la shown that the portion of
the tenant farmer haa been in recent
years as low as a oente per bale.
If the legislature were to levy a direct
tax as discriminatory us this what kind
of a tea party would vou have in Texas?
A transportation lax is fixed by the com-
mission ranging In amount from 1M per
cest to 333 per rent aa great ou raw

The Tax Bills.
Ths argument Is made however that
the railroad commission should sot lower
the transportation tax on cotton btause
the legislature has passed bills Increasing
the tax burdens of the railroads. Already
It baa been announced that the enforce-
ment of what Is known aa th intangible
tax bill wilt be enjoined snd It will prob-
ably be four or fire years before the
measure will get through to the supreme
court where It will CO on writ of error.
If It Is sustained by our State supreme
court.
The bill to tax the gross receipts of
railways furnishes a pretext to carry that
measure Into the court too because
nearly two-thirds of their gross receipts
are from divisions ou interstate com-
merce. Even If these laws are not tied
up In the courts. Is It seriously proposed
that the railroad commission of Texas
every member of which has expressed
the belief that the cotton rates In Texas
are too high era going to dump th
whole burden back upon the cottou pro-
ducers by refusing to reduce the ratest
That la what It means. The railways bit-
terly complain of the legislature and
charge that they have been singled out
ss tho one object from which to aecure
revenue to fill a depleted treasury. Is
the commission going to refuse to reduce
the transportation tax on cotton in order
that the railroads may relmbua them-
selves for th tax burdeni of which they
complain they have been singled out to
pay from thla one commodity T
If this tax Is to be rslevled by th
commission why not levy It on all the
tonuage and not maka cotton consti-
tuting less than t par cent of the railway
tonnage bear It all? Why not put some
of this extra burden on the railroads If
It Is to be takes Into account In consider-'
lng reduction In cotton rates on th
manufactured ootton products of tha
looms of New England and th silks and
satins of France which are hauled from
Oalvaatoa to Dallas and around over th
Stat at a much lower rats than th
raw cotton that la produced by the men
women and children of Texas? That it
should aU be born by ft per cent of th
tonnage I repugnant to a fair sense of
Justice end fairness.
Cotton Rates in Other States.

high I call attention to rata In other
State. In Florida tha maximum rate
