O. K. M-CULLT. ec Sec. The Observer's exposure of one F. W. Galnc last summer, has oeen cor roborated by an exhauutlve cross-ex-amlnatlon at Pendleton yesterday. There Is yet a warning to be sent to the farmers of Union county who were swindled Into signing an agreement that waa a downright piece of crook edness, according to a statement of the railroad commission Itself. That warning is to Ignore the contracts and for farmers to reap the benefit oi rate reductions if full If the rate are reduced. When the hearing at Pendleton has reached a decision It If probable that the grain rates from the Grande Ronde will be reduced, and in that event those who signed a contract with Gaines to split the re ductions, will either be "held up" b adhering to the contract, or realize SO per cent more profit by the rate re duction. . . Following is what the Pendleton East Oregonlan says of the man who attempted to swindle the principal wheat farmers of this valley: ' That the state railroad commUtslou of Oregon has no connection with F. VV. Gaines, who under contract with several farmers, has endeavored to secure a reduction or tne gram rates In force In this section for one-half the sum saved the first year by such a reduction, was made evident in' the grain rate hearing at the Commercial association rooms yesterday. It was also made evident that the commis sion's action In hearing the matter yesterday was not affected by Mr. Gaines, with whom the commission re pudiated any connection whatsoever. It was brought out during the hear ing that Gaines had made representa tions to the farmers that he could ef fect a saving in the rates on the O. R. &'N. for transporting wheat to Port land and contracted to secure such a reduction for one-half the first year" savins If he was successful. The Im pression was given out that the man represented hehad some connection with the commission and in the grill ing given the witness when Gaines wat put on the stand yesterday afternoon the commission left It evident that it methods used. It was also shown that the present hearing was in no way connected with any act of Mr. Gaines, but was taken up by the commlssior. upon Its own Instance. Gaines' Methods Condemned. A contingent fee, such as was ar ranged by Gaines, was roundly con demned during the course of the hear ing, and although the commission had no condemnation for an organization of the farmers to secure legal assist ance in a fight for better rates, its dis gust with the Gaines plan was very plain. Gaines, as a witness, was, thoroughly posted upon many features of ,the rat problem, and declared that the pres ent charges of the company were o per cent In excess of what was needec1 to pay all expenses and a return of ( per cent on the investment C. A. Barrett of Athena, was also a witness yesterday before the com mission and testified to farming con ditions and farm values In the coun ty. The evidence taken by the commis sion in this city will be used by It to base its final opinion after hearings at several other points along the line of the rlalroad are held. Next week the commission will hold another hearing at Heppner, and later one will be held at The Dalles.
