Baker City Ignored.
A poster announcing the
Short Line's August outing
duced round trip rates from Salt Lake
City to points as far west as La
Grande has come to the notice of the
Democrat.
The poster gives the rate from Salt
Lake City and return to all points
along- the O. 8. L., Including Hunting
ton and La Grande, with the excep
tion that Baker City is omitted. Why
this? Only the railway officials can
answer positively, but to the public It
looks very much like discrimination.
This Instance Is not the only one. The
same thing has occurred at various
times.
It might be well for the Business
Men's association to look into this
matter and If not ' satisfactorily d
Justed perhaps a little discrimination
on the part of the shippers against the
O. S. L. might bring the railroad to
terms.
To leave Baker City off the list of
points advertised is certainly unjust,
and the Democrat would like to know
the reason for such discrimination
Will the O. 8. L. management give us
some enlightenment on the subjoct?
