It is claimed bs them that if there were not so much of government supervision, regula- tion, and interference, and if, with the business ability and ingenuity of | our American railway men, they were |permitted to work out these problems jin a business-like way, they would be able to improve the si to reduce the charges, It is also claim ed by them that if the railroads were permitted to consolid: tablish working agreements certain specified territory, it would make it easier to improve service, re- duce rates, and to make a reasonable | ‘ jreturn on the investment made in ‘these business enterpri What Clubs Found. “In connection with recent hear- ings on the merger question held in i North Dakota, I find that committees jof the Commercial clubs of Devils Lake and Minot have gone into this matter with considerable care, and have come to the conclusion that the consolidation proposed’ by the rail- is more ad to the state of North Dakota than the consolidation proposed | un be — rendered, and passengers and in the grea aid that may be given to the d velopment of the Northwest, the rail- roads will be in a better position to | serve the people of the state, if! weaker roads are not loaded on to} jthe shoulders of either of the lar- | Iger railwi state. “It is apparent that if the plea for | s regulation and fewer restric- tjons on the railroad business is to be heeded and a freer play given to {the business acumen and ability of tho executives. of thes roads to work out these problems, that the public welfare then demands th competition, along broad lines, must be preserved; not the petty competi tion which defeats efficiency, but the broader competition which ‘tends jto promote justice, while, at the same time making ecpnomy and ef- ible.
