It has been the custom of the car
tiers in this community, for a great
many years past, to agree- upon i con
i" rence rate common to all carriers,
and likewise this year, a common basis
was reached whleh would govern all
the carriers within the state.
The bas s determined upon was. as
ou know. 1 - limes the- one way
i;n- of the steam carriers, and tnis
basis has been adopte 1 ly all 'he

Lm fdaho-Coniral railroad, the Salt Like

Th. condition you note is not con-
f.ned to 'gil n -i! it- Mii.iit, alone.
but ukt v. applies with similar effect
t.. very community reached by the
MM three electric interurban Ikies, wnich
serve approximately 7.7 per cent of th-1
mmL sate of L'tah. We therefore feci that
UmW we should be entltli d to the same rev-
H nue on thl - traffli is re eived 03
Umu the competitive carriers, and likewise
nmtl by the other Inter urbane, for Similar
HI service, and though It is true that we
;ire now plot' ctlnjr a Sunday rate of
SI. 10. yet we have applied to the i ub
HH' lie Utilities Commission for an incicas.-
Wl of this rate as It Is entirely too low,
lyjTfj and the application ln regard therte

In the meantime, though we feel
that the rates are too low, ve are, of
' course, helpless In the matter and
IBj must continue to sell on that bus s uu-

We do not wish you to feel that we
are desirous to do anything that woul.i
tend to Injure the state fair or the
K conference, nor to stand in the way of
Hie good results which are accompllsh

do feel that with our superior service

'(2 - S. It might be of Interest to note
M that i hough our rate is the garni is
(J our competitors offer, yet the steam
hjjj carriers require a ery complicated
fw certificate method of fare, whereas
Jji our fare Is on the open rate basis-,
if The action of the inii rurban rail-
M roads to charge the same conference-
rate as tbe steam roads seems to Vour
'committee to be unfair to oiih r nee
visitors, Inasmuch as Mw i-egular price
lb kets on the 1 n t e ri i r b.i n is lower than
ii the steam roads Although e think
Mi.- 1 1-3 far.- charged by the steam
'roads is altogether too high for a con
iferehce rate, yet If the electrical roads
Kad - liarg.-d bOt 1 -8 of tbolr regular
rate, thev would hae ui 'least ruled
consistently; but to charge the same
price as the steam roads only at con
ference time seems to be wholly inde-,
pensible.
