Washington Letter on Railway Bills and Tariff Policy
The article discusses the Townsend Esch and Davey railway rate bills, House Republicans backing action while Senate impulse is uncertain due to the Swayne impeachment case. It notes President Roosevelt’s hopes for broader reform, possible special session in October, and debates over subsidies to the Southern Railway and wheat tariff protections impacting farmers and millers. It also includes a North Carolina anti jug bill proposal and a local note on health cures and farming pruning jokes.
