La Grande - - - - - 0re 1420 ADAMS AVENUE La Grande, Oregon That Oregon will enjoy the colonUt rate again this year, although not ao low a rate as" on ' former . years. Is shown by the following from a Port land paper, which says: A most signal victory has been won by the railroads entering Portland In the fight they have been making for a reduced one-nay colonist rate for the current 'year. While the victory Is In the nature of a compromlne. It will mean- that there will be no stay ing of the tremendous rush of home- seekers to the northwest trie coming spring, all Interests -which have been fighting for the low rate admitting that the $5 Increase above the previ ous rates, wil! have no deterent ef fect on the stream of Oregon-bound settlers. So far as the local territory Is con cerned, the Hill roads are the only lines that' opposed granting a colonist rate this year, and when Hill forme? a combination with certain of the powerful eastern roatls, against the lower rate, It looked as If Oregon had been delivered a body blow, aa had both Washington and California. Unfortunately' ior u.;r.!r there wasn't a line tapping that state that would stand up and fight for the $33 middle west and 122 Missouri river rates, and so strong and effect ive was the Hill and kindred opposi tion that the roads favoring the re duced rate saw there was only one hope of winning, and that was by con senting to a $5 paster on the rate from the two sections,, this compro mise fixing the middle west rate at (38 and the Missouri river rate at $30. Tlie roads which deserve the credit for assisting the coast states in keep ing up their rapid rate of settlement by eastern colonists are the following. each of which made Individual de mands for the former rates of $33 anil $25 respectively: Union Paclftc, O. R. & N., Southern Pacific, Oregon Short Line, Rock Island and the C. B. & Q. e : In other words, the Harrlman system, with the aid of two other systems. whipped the recalcitrant Hill and as soclute systems Into line by throwing $5 sop. That there would be a colonist rate granted for the spring and fall sea sons was announced In press dis- patches from Chicago as follows: The Rate Announced. That the 2-cent fare regulation re cently enacted by several western states will not operate to do awa with colonist rates on the railroads- leading to the Pacific coast was an nounced here yesterday. Independen notice to this effect had been given by the Southern Pacific, and other western roads are. expected to follow the lead. Beginning March 1, anil continuing until April, it Is annnunc ed, the rates of $38 from the mldult west 'to the Pacific coast will be Ir. effect for homeseekers. From the Missouri river ' tcrrltorj the rate to California will be $30 Itft- i!a-tlc- I!( nx ,Ls. Zil.
