Unjust railroad rates in western Montana shipments
A River Press summary cites a western Montana paper showing ranchers and fruit growers face higher transportation charges for Montana markets than competitors from Washington. A carload from Missoula to Bozeman could cost less when billed to Fargo and returned, despite a 1800 mile detour versus a 230 mile direct route. The Northern Pacific reportedly raised hay rates in the Yellowstone region by 3.50 dollars per ton.
