Sj.wclal Correspomlnce of the Srws
Ausrhi. Texas. .Marcli 7. The eontest
for governor this ear is only a rout in uu
tion of the battle fought two ear- auo.
when the people triumphed mi com-
pletely over the railroad and tlwir
frieude. The ibmic is in no i(-- altered.
It i.s the same now as then with a iuw
Hiehmond in the field a- II e
champion of the railroad. The
riciory of two yeaaB ago lnre fruit in
the creation by the legirhiture of the
railroad commission which we now
have. This commission came in res-
ponse to the emphutie demanil ol tlie
jieuple. Its creation was antagonizi d
and fought at every t-tep of the bill's
irogre3S through the legislature 1 one
of the most a-sidioiJ-. and im-erupu-lcuis
lobbies that e.ver infeted the hali-
of legislation. The friends of llie uiea-;-ure
tood lirm and did their dut. giv-
ing Trxas one of the heil eommision
laws in the Union ai.d providing a t-
tem nf railway legislation ihnt is in.
every respect an improvement mi simi-
lar r stems in other states. Tin law of
ours : modeled on that adopted in
Illinois in IbTl. ami in Georgia hi 17'.'.
In t)oIh stateh which were the pioneers
in tfic West and .South in this methud
of regulating railroails the commi.-Mon
lawp have ieen approved and -ireiigth-rned
from jcir to year until the are
regarded a- model after which otner
Mates are cop) lug. Alter there iimili-N
the Texas law w:is drawn with mh it
modilications as the naturu of ll e times '
and the circuiurtaiices of our Taf
roads dictated. Tin- estential primi- "
j)le- are the -ame in the coiumir-ion
laws of the three Mates and in fail
in twelve or fourteen other .-tales that
have adopted similar methods of mil-
way legulatioii. '
One would Mippose from the howl'
raised by the friends of the railroad:- '
that the Texas commission if the lirst j
ordained in the Union w ith the power;
toiix fieigl.t ami passenger rates wJiom )
reasonableness shall le lieni as puma
facie and binding until the courts at the
suit of a railroad shall decide otherw i.-e.
So far from thin being the ca-e. Texas j
is the last one of several states to adoj.i
that plan of regulation. Illinois which '
has more miles of raihoad to the .-quart-;
mile of territory than any western;
Stale adopted the principle.- found in
the Texas commission laxx txxeiity-oi.e '
vears ago. xvith iheacknow U-dgrd re.-uit '
ofnoxv having the hest regulated and

Georgia tollowid suit eight years latei
xvith a coiniiii. ion xxhose classilicatioii. !
rites ruling- and orders aie binding 01 i
the roads ami in the court.- and what is
the result? Her railroad mileage in-j
creased until (.eorgia like Illinois in j
the xv est. became a leader among the.
btates of the South. Her railroad mile-j
aire is almo-t equal to that of Texa-. j
and you could hide Georgia in the Pan J
handle. Not only that but aiconlnm
to the testimony of the Georgia com-
mihsion the stocks and bonds of the
railroads appreciated in xalue after tin .
crsation of a commission that had the
poxvr to regulate in fact and not in ap
pearance. There are fourteen othei
States that have similar poxvers of ivgu-1
lating supervising and inspecting rail-
roads. These are Ioxva. Miune-ota. j
Kansas Missouri. California. Alabama J
South Carolinu. North Carolinr. Mis-is- j
sippl New Hampshire. North and South J
Dakota Oregon and Nebraska. With;
what face can any man. not out of hi- 1
head or steeped in ignorance say that j
the Texas commission is uniiKe any
other and can wreck and ruin rail
roads at will? Will the people credit
such falsehoods before making enquiry
as to their true character? The truth
of the matter is Texas was tearfully
Blow in arriving at an adequate plan ot
regulation. What she did one yearag.
nearly a score of States hail done ten.
fifteen and twenty years ago adopting
the leading principles many of them
found in her commission laxv. Eighteen
States besides those named have com
missions alio hut endowed with super
