Resolution Adopted Urging Court to

County Fair Cream-, ,
ery la Dacuaed.
The establishment of an Indepen
dent steamer line between Oregou .
City and Portland la proposed by Cap
tain Hembree, owner of ' the tern
wheel steamer Leona, who waa her
Tueaday and attended the weekly
luncheon of the Liv Wire and laid
before that organization a proposition
to put hi boat on the local run, mak
ing two round-tripe daily. Captain
Hembree say he will cut the passen
ger rate in two, and will reduce the
freight tariff on some claasee of mer
chandise., materially cutting the rat
on furniture and similar merchandise
in twain.
Mlnnvllle run last summer, and Cap
tain Hembree la authority for Um
etatement that the craft loat 2,K
for hlin before he finally pulled her
off the run and tied her np at Port
land ilnn whirh time aha haa been
out of commission. Her owner says
he carried hay for $1.20 per ton foa
McMlnnvllle to portlana, ana maae
no profit on the haul, after being com
noiioA to nar GO cent a ton lock
age. Shortly after hi craft waa plac
ed on tne route, tne souinern raciuc
Company, he say, reduced the rate
to $1 per ton, and waa eventually
compelled to make a pro rata reduc-,
tinn In frxiEht ratea all along ita west
side line from Corvallla to Portland.
Captain Hembree recited Wis tact 'n
refutation of the statement that in the
past independent steamer lines have
been driven off of the Portland Ore
gon City run by the existing compan
ls,who have cut the rale down to
eliminate competition, and then have
boosted them up again to the former
figure.'
What seems to be the main stick
ing point in the establishment of an-etfeea-
steamer line here la the ab
sence of a dock, the only wharf In
the city being controlled by the Ore
gone City Transportation Company.
For many year Frank Buach, and
other enterprising citizena hav en
deavored to secure the construction
of a public dock at the foot of
Eleventh street, which l probably the
most accessible place. Ut. Buach waa
