Inland Empire lumber rate case marks new precedent
The Inland Empire wins a key Interstate Commerce Commission decision over lumber freight rates, restoring prechange rates and establishing a differential favoring Washington and northern Idaho. The ruling promises broader revival for local lumber, with Coeur d Alene set to gain from lowered transport costs. William Allen White notes Taft era platform dynamics and warns against political manipulation. Editorials criticize city finances and advocate democratic settlement ideals, contrasting American settlements with English models and stressing equality and lack of patronage.
