Vande water, traveling freight agent, are In Baker City today and thl. afternoon met representatives of the Business Men's association and the Citizen's league, to discuss a distributive freight rate for Baker City, relates the Baker City Herald. After the situation had been gone over thoroughly It was the opinion of the railroad representatives that Ba ker City could not be given a distrlb , utlve freight rate, or placed on an f equal footing with Portland, which was the request of the local shippers. At present the local merchants have a rate east to Durkee and west to North Powder and can compete with Portland merchants only within that territory. The Rose City Is greatly favored by the ralrload according to public opinion, as a distributive point and goods can be shipped from Port land to points outside of Baker's small Money Supports the Home and It needs a steady Influx of It to maintain the household and keep It going. To be sure of that steady flow of money, It Is the best plan to bank the savings so that ynu will know where to reach them In time of need. For "rainy days" come to the thrif tiest of us at times, and tt Is well for us If they find us prepared. Bank your surplus cash with us now, and you will have the pleasure of know ing that It Is not only secure, but earning good Interest. The Eastern Oregon Trust & Savings Bank OFFICERS: F. M.

BEAN, La RATES fOli ARE REFUSED district cheaper than they can be shipped from Baker, although the dis tance here Is much less. The excuse of the officials for not granting the rate Is that If Baker Is given this concession other towns along the line would ask the same fa vor and Baker would be no better off than before, while the rates would be reduced all along the line. The Baker merchants desired a rata which would give them an entrance Into the Grande Ronde valley, and let them go east to Huntington, but ' the officials did not aee fit to grant the concessions asked. After the meeting members of the business men's organizations were not satisfied to let the matter rest and they Immediately telegraphed the state railroad commission, asking for appointment, at which time Baker's side of the case would be argued. Many feel that 'he outcome will result favorable to this city. PINCIIFI WITH A PITCHFORK. Man Wanted for Cashing Bad Choc!; Found Hidden In Hay Mow.

Mr. Bibbelov wilt visit Hermlston, where a number of farmers under the government Irrigation project will plant small quantities of beets as a test crop and from there will go to Walla Walla, where he hopes to make contracts for a number of large tracts. The beets raised west of the moun tains for a few years would neces sarily have to be shipped to La Grande to be manufactured Into sugar, but If the Industry would grow to any pro portions In this and Walla Walla counties, a factory would be eniao tlshed near the beet raising center and hundreds of people would be employed In growing beets on land rented by the company, as is now done In Grande Ronde valley.
