RAILROAD RATES
There must be a change In the present
system of making railroad rates. The
only system at present is to charge all
tbf, commodity 'will stand. Why. the con
sumers have made no protest from the
evils of such a system is difficult 'to ex
am, when the American people are re
newed for their ability, to register a kick.
Few people realize the difference in rates
on different clasiflcatlons, to illustrate;
av,eral years ago the 0. R. as N. made a
rata on grain from Grande Ronde valley.
toPortlandof $4.50 per ton. , . J
That rate has prevailed for a sufficient
ength of time, to furnish a precedent, . or
premise upon which may reasonable .be
supposed, that the rat provides a leget-
imate proSt or the rate would not have
bead permitted to continue as it has, to wit
$90 par car of 20 tons. If that rate pro
vides a legitimate profit, what justification
can be pleaded for a rate on a car load of
sugar from Portland to La Grande of $256
Think of it- ie thaie any reason- why the
rate on sugar is over three tims as much
as wheat, weight for weight and distance
fot disUnce. We could have nicked other
articles that would have made a still
greater difference, but both wheat and
aijar and staples and enjoy the lowest
rates in their respective classifications.
I . . .i . . ,.
nay is iiniinr com moony mat enjoys
aerate of only $5, from this valley to
Portland, $100'for20 tons.
Either the company is loosing money
the rates which have prevailed 1o
years on hay and grain or they are en
tirely too hjgh on sugar and the hund
reds of other articles whioh takes a
higher rate than eugar Those who have
investigated know full well that there is
no system of establishing rates on any of
the roads in America, with reference to
the actual cost of handling a ton of freight
per mile.'-" ' - '
On a mileage basis, many new changes
woujd be brot about Citiee would be built
Where such a thing is not now considered
in railroad rates, and become acquainted
with the' various rates, simply be
cause the commodity wll stand.' it there
will be such an agitation that it will result
in one or the other of two things, railroad
will base their rates upon the cost of
carriage or the people will demand that
government will take over, the roads as
in Germany, Japan and other countries
This kind of weather grieves the man
who has made a careful study of irriga
tion thru the storage of waste waters.
This ia an awful waste.
WISE COUNSEL fROM THE SOUTH
'I want to give some valuable advice
to those who suffer with lame back and
kidney trouble," says J. R. Blankenship of
Beck, Tenn. "I have proved to an abso
lute certainty that Electric Bitters will
positively cure this distressing condition.
The first bottle gave me great relief and
after taking a few more bottles, I was
completely cured; so completely that it
beoomes a pleasure to recommend this
great remedy." Sold under guaranet
