O.-W. R. & N. Get
Ready for Fall Crops
II. C. ISuughman, the newprinci-l One thousand new freight cars

School arrived in 1'rineville last j in anticipation of a heavy demand
week and is much pleased with the fur cars to move the large crops this
bright outlook for the High School I fall, are now being turned out by
for the coming year.
Mr. Haughman's educational work
is well known throughout the state
the car builders and are arriving at
the various reserve stations of that
company in Oregon and Washington
and he comes to Crook county with jat the rate of 50 cars a day. The
the best of credentials and the high- delivery began on August 1st, and

San Francisco The state railway
commission of California has order
ed reductions in the express rates of
Wells-rargo & Lo. amounting to a.
cut of $750,000 from present annual ! This office is in receipt of some
revenues. Every rate of the com-. shipping tags from the Portland

In its ruling the commission re

If you have anything you wish to
Union Pacific, we are confident that s'x months under the scales of rates i exhibit call at the Journal office and
examinations which gave the pupils
much better preparation for their
8th grade finals; and the introduc
tion of the standardized rural
schools which proved a decided suc
cess and placed the educational
standards of the county on a much
higher basis. Mr. Raughman was
prevailed upon to remain in Lane
county, but because of the health
conditions in his family resigned to
come here.
Among other positions held by
Mr. Baughman were the principal
ship of a ward school in Eugene and
su)erintendent of the Springfield
schools, where he taught five years.
Professor Baughman takes great
interest in all educational work.
This, coupled with his keen under
standing of the needs of the young
men and women of the present
time, makes him a suitable man for
our Crook County High Scoool.
Ex-Senator Jonathan Bourne has
given out word that he will soon
make a complete tour of tho state
in the interest of good roads visit
ing Central and Eastern Oregon.
It has been suggested that Mr".
Bourne may also be looking up
political interests, as some think he
intends to be a candidate for the
United States senate against Cham
berlain next year.

One Pendleton;
One Round-Up
"It need occasion no surprise
to hear of the increased numbers
who want to attend the Round
Up at Pendleton," says Win. Mc
Murray, general passenger agent
for the 0 W K. & N., in an inter
view in the Portland Journal pf
August 8th. "It is distinctly
the show of the continent in the
events it features. I do not
mean to detract from the other
performances given in the differ
ent cities, but there is only one
Pendleton, and one Round Up
Tbore is enough thrill m any
one i f the several performances
at Pendleton to give the ticket
holder his money's worth, and
the management throws in
enough additional thrills to make
it the greatest show of its kind
on earth. I am told that a num
ber of new and interesting
features are to be added this
year. Personally I do not see
how the Round Up can bo im
proved on as heretofore given,
but the managers are always
looking for something nw and
they invariably round it up"
"The greatest need for cars in
crop-moving time is about the mid
dle of October. As delivery of all
the new rolling stock will be made
by September 1, we expect to be
ready for any contingency.
"The new box cars are all 40 feet
long and of 100,000 pounds capaci
ty. This is the standard size adopted
by the company.
''Tho Pon!fi Fruit FvrtrA hn
also ordered 2000 additional refrig
erator cars, which will bring its
total number up to 13,000. This
will greatly facilitate the moving of
the fruit crop."
At present the O.-W. R. & N. Co.
is arranging for the parking of
freight cars at points where they
will be quickly available after the
harvest.
A most favorable omen in con
nection with the important problem
of car supply is the better under
standing that now prevails among
shippers in general in the matter of
capacity loading and reduction to
minimum of lost time in loading
and unloading.
