THURSDAY, JULY 4 DaILy EDITION. WHEN THE COMMISSION COMES WEST. It cannot be too strongly realized by the boards of trade throughout the west that they have a duty to perform in arrang- ing to have convincing proof furnished to the Railway Gommis- sion at every point it visists that there is a solidly united and determined west behind the demand for just railway rates. The points in the west at which the Commission will sit, and the dates, as set forth in au Ottawa despatch are as follows: Fort William, Wednesday, July 17; Winnipeg, Thursday, July 18; Moose Jaw, Saturday, July 20; Regina, Monday, July 22; Saskatoon, Tuesday, July 23; Edmonton, Wednesday, July 4; Calgary, Thursday, July Vancouver, Saturday, July 2 Victoria, Tuesday, July 30. 25; iy The western rates investigation has for some time been in the stage where it is the railway companies’ move. By the last judgment of the Commission pronounced by Judge Mabee, Mr. Cowan was declared to have established that the whole existing seale of western rates is discriminatory against the west and that, therefore, under Section 77 of the Railway Act the railway companies must show cause why the discrimination shall not be done away with by an order of the Commission for a com- plete revision of the rates. Mr. Cowan also established, from the official figures furnished under oath by the railway com- panies themselves, that the cost of operation is lower, not higher, in the prairie provinces than in the east. It is stated that “‘these western hearings may reveal certain traffic conditions which may be of value later in the formation of a judgment.” What every Western Canadian has reason to desire with all earnestness is that everything which can in any way possibly assist in the clearing up of the whole question of western rates shall be brought to light. The surest way—in fact, the only way—ioward the securing of just treatment of the public by the railways is the way of absolute publicity in regard to the traffic conditions and all the other workings, the expendi- tures, the revenues, the accounts and everything else there is to be found out in regard to these most important of public utilities. What the west desires is the full daylight of publicity upon all these matters, so that the Commission can see ils way clearly to the enforcement of a square deal, placing the rates from end to end of the whole country on the basis of justice to all with discrimination for none. It is for the boards of trade throughout the west to frustrate any strategic attempt on the part of the cunning, adroit and craft corporation counsel to make it appear that in this demand for justice the people of Western Canada are not standing shoulder’ to shoulder, without distinction of section. All that the west wants is a square deal; and that is what all the west wants. LYNCH BROS. Largest Stock General Merchandise . . SS Lowest Prices in Northern B. C.
