Lewiston, Ida., 7an. 25 (Special) The Northern Pacific-has made Lew tston an intermediate- milling ' point for grain shipped from eastern points to the coast and the ' effect will be the opening of new markets to the local industries. - The new rate will become effective on February 18, and will place Lewiston mills upon equal footing with Spokane, It is explained that large quanti ties of corn 'and corn products as well as hard wheat and hard whea products from the middle west states and the Dakota are shipped into the local territory and to coast Dolnts. The new rate will allow the ' local mills to engage in the manufacture of orn meal an rodcrpnCMFtjjtHRBLS corn meal and corn products, as well as hard wheat flour and become bid ders for the trade in all sections of the northwest. The regular 2V6 cents per hundred mllllng-in-trajiBlt charge will prevail. During the past several years the local mills have enjoyed a heavy flout1 trade at coast" points and for exportation but some of the most de sirable trade has been beyond the reach of the local manufacturers be cause of tbe prohibitive rates -on corn and hard wheat from the mfddlewest sections.' - If superiority becomes palpablo then the element of sport is nil, for sport abhors a foregone conclusion as nature abhors a vacuum.
