The commission shows that "during the last two years the operating revenues of the Southern Pacific company's Pacific system had in creased $8,000,000, while its operating expenses had de creased $5,000,000, thus producing an increased operating income of over $13,000,000, or a net increase of about $2000 per mile of road." A petition for a rehearing was filed by the railroads, which will delay the putting into effect of the new rates. By the same process of reasoning through which the west was found eiftitled to reductions, Medford is also entitled to substantial reductions in prevailing tariffs from Portland and San Francisco, and if proper representations are made, will undoubtedly secure them.

John H. Lewis, etate engineer, announces his candidacy to succeed himself. Horo toofre the ottico of stato engineer i has been filled by appointment by tho governor, but by virtue of an act ' passed by tho legislature nt Its last session tho offlco Is made elective, therefore .Mr. Lewis must go beforo' tho people for endorsement. ' Mr. Lewis was appointed to the of fice of stato engineer six years ago by Governor Chamberlain, and though appointed by a democratic governor, lo a republican. Ho is the only person who has ever hold tho ' josltlon of stato engineer In this state, having been appointed when the of fice was first created. Ho was born and raised In Portland. It was largely through his efforts I that tho water code adopted last win ter by the legislature was enacted Into n law. Ho worked assiduously through two sessions to bring about tho onactment of tho law. It Is con-. ceded generally to bo in advance of the legislation on the same subject In other states, and Mr. Lowls Is anx-' lous to seo tho act given nn ndoquato and fair trial. Tho law has Its ene mies nnd unleso Judiciously and prop erly administered could er.ally bo tho subject of abuse. Tho petitions to be circulated by Mr. Lewis contain tho following statement of his positien: "If I nm nominated and elected I will during my term of offlco endeav or to carry to a successful completion as sccretnry of tho desort lrnd board tho eight stato Irrlratlon nroiects and tho many water light ndjudlca-1 tlons before tho board of control, and of which I am president, In addition to the largo volume of work nowl beforo tho stato engineer's office as n result of tho laws recently enacted. These laws are much In advance of' othor states, nand wero onacted large ly through my efforts. They aro on trial In Oregon and will prove of great valuo in the state's development if made a success through consistent and proper administration."
