For many years the roads would not let
such freight be unloaded here until it was
first carried on thru to Portland and then
hauled back. Finally they found away
whereby they could collect the rates by
unloading the freight here. That was no
small accommodation for it meant a
saving of at least one week in the time of
receiving the goods. We have lived under
these conditions for the last fifteen or
more years and if Spokane wins in her
fight, the Inland Empire will save thou
sands of dollars. This is a direct saving
to the cousumer not to the mercha t. In
a general way it matters very little to
the dealer what the freight rate is. He
is compelled to add it to the cost of the
goods. The only thing that interests him
is to know that the rate is the same to
every dealer. The fight is now on and
justice demands that Spokane will be
successful.
Santa Claus is coming, he will soon be
here.
Our streets are crowded these days
with happy peopie bent on remembering
their friends with Christmas tokens.
The cry all over the land is "Car short
age . it must have some foundation,
nevertheless "Car shortage" permits not
a few of the roads to cover up not a few
short comings.

It looks very much as tho the Timber
and Stone law, will soon be repealed by
congress. Not a few In th:s state no
doubt wish it had beert repealed several
years ago.

It speaks well for Oregon apples to be
selling at 90 cents per dozen in Eastern
cities when the Middle and Eastern states
are known to be unable to place their
stock on the market at anything like re
numerative prices.
There are so many lonj. light cjlured

Within a very short time the voters of
this city will doubtless be called upon to
vote whether or not they are in favor nf
issuing sufficient bonds to bring in t:ie
waters of Beaver Creek fur city purposes.
The amount of power that such a project
is capable of producing, in addition to the
water quesfion, will receive no small con
sideration by quite a nuinher of those
who will vote upon this matter.

The county Good Roads Association
can do much for the cause they champion
and doubtless will. In the proper season
if they would arrange for a county con
vention, on lines similar to the one held in
this city this week and let our own farm
ers and tax payers exchange their views
it would result in securing public opinion
as to the wishes of those who actually
pay the bills.
A Trite Saying.
