ABERDEEN DENIED
TERMINAL RATES
Order of Northern Pacific
Arouses Grays Harbor
Business Interests.
PLAN TO FIGHT RAILROAD
Jobbers and Shippers Invoke Aid of
Congressional Delegation and
Propose to Appeal to the
Courts for Assistance.
ABERDEEN, IVuh., Xov. 3D. (Special.)
The entire Grays Harbor country is
stirred up or a notice snt by the
Northern Pacific Company through its
traffic ir.an-ir at Tacoma, notifying tiie
businessmen that beginning January 1,
a new trans-continental tariff will go
Into effect which will withdraw Grays
Harbor and "U'UIapa Harbor cities from
terminal privileges and increase the rate
6 cents a 100 for carload freight and 10
cents for local freight. As the schedule
does not affect Olyinpia, Astoria or Van
couver, the feeling is the more intense.
At a mass meeting of businessmen of
Hoquiam and Aberdeen it was decided to
adopt a plan of retaliation which may
compel the Northern Facitic Company to
recede from its position. Telegrams have
been sent to Senator Piles and to every
member of the Washington delegation
protesting against the new differentials,
and It Is proposed to rarry the fight into
very Quarter of the United States.
Will Take Fight Into Courts.
Trie Interstate Commerce Commission
has been asked to interfere and if neces
sary the Federal Courts will be sought
ftr Injunctlonal purposes. Kvery mer
chant and any one doing any business
' with the Northern Paclric Company is to
be enlisted for the fray, and it is pro
posed to carry the opposition to the last
ditch.
A. E. Rupert, manager of the West &
Giade Wholesale Grocery Company, says:
'I think that the proposed discrimina
tion ogalnst Grays Harbor as contem
plated by the new schedule of trans-continental
rates to go into effect January 1
Is one of the most serious things that has
ever happened for the future of this
Grays Harbor country. As a differential
cf 5 cents per hundred-weight in carload
lots, and 10 cents per hundred-weight In
less than carload lots as compared with
Puget Sound and Columbia River cities
would be enough to discourage enterprises
from coming here who could Iijcate as
well, or nearly as well at other points.
Blow to Development.
"It would also be an effectual bar to
any future development here in the way
of Jobbing business of any kind, as job
bers located at this point could not com
pete with other points if they were
obliged to pay higher rates. It would also
result In all of the people, including the
laboring class, having to pay more for
elmost everything they would use.
'I attribute the blame for this discrimi
nation largely to the Northern Pacific
"Railway Company, as I am reliably in
formed that Astoria, for Instance was
left on the list of terminal cities at the
special request of the O. R. A X.. and I
UMieve thit the Northern Pacific could
-.. r as much for Grays Harbor,
m"c. " there Is already a large Job-
- t-ss done here in the hardware
i. . r lines. This rate will probably
very sly affect this business already
established if it dues not drive it out
entirely."
Although the lumber Interests will not
be affected hy the new schedule, the lum
bermen of the Harbor will hold a meeting
Hunday to take up the war with the other
businessmen of thu Harbor.
Road Breaks Old Promise.
A contract made between the Grays
Harbor Company and live Northern Pa
cific at the time the railroad was built
to the Harbor may prevent the plan of
'the Northern Pacific to deprive the Har
bor of the right of terminul rates. That
contract which Is now in the possession
of H. C. Heermans, of Hoquinm. provides
that the terminal rights shall always be
granted by the railroad on lumber and
'forest products and that no discrimina
tion shall be practiced against Harbor
points In these respects at least. W hether
or not the contract is broad enough to
cover all commodities is not yet known,
but It will be examined by attorneys to
determine Its extent and validity as
affecting the classes of freight that will
be affected by the proposed ruling.
This vn tract whs niad by the North
ern Pacific In return for tat.) cash given
by Grays Harbor people, an agreement
to grant a right-of-way across the com
pany's property and to ratse an additional
cash sum of JlT.W. Besides this the city
of Hoqiiiam gave the Northern Pacific
if !.. cash to be used In the purchase of
' a right-of-way. All of this w:is done
under contract with the railroad that it
.wnultl always grant terminal rates to
toquiam and Aberdeen and Harbor
Spulnts.
Citizens Built Part jf Kond.
Aberdeen built the present Northern Pa
,rirtc line from the Wishkah River to
Aberdeen Junction. Hoquinm buiit the
'bridge across the rtver and the remainder
of the road to Hoqulam. All of it was
turned over to the Northern Pacific free
of cost.

PIERCE HAS CLUB
OUT FOR MEIGS
Hopes to Whip King County in
Line for Slayden for
Speaker.
THREATENS -SEATTLE FAIR
May Drag Jones, of North Yakima,
Into Fight Tacoma Politicians
Are Vslng Every Iever at
Their Command.
OLTMPIA. Wash., Nov. 20. (Special.)
Pierce County Representatives who
are pressing the name of J. W. Slayden,
of Tacoma, for Speaker of the House
were taken off their feet by the state
ment yesterday that the steering com
mittee of the King County delegation
Indorsed L. O. Meigs, of North Yakima,
two days after the announcement of his
candidacy. In addition to an attempt
at alignment with Representative P. M.
Carlyon. of this city, also a canddlate
for Speaker, the Pierce County delega
tion and Tacoma politicians are seek
ing every avenue to concentrate pres
sure on the King County delegation to
disapprove the action of the steering
committee and to prevent the force of
the indorsement of .Meigs from stam
peding the delegations from other coun
ties. The pressure on the King County del
egation Is being concentrated through
the A.-Y.-P. directorate on the claim
that Seattle and King County will have
so much to ask from the Legislature In
the way of appropriations this year
that tney cannot afford to turn down
the Pierce County delegation. Mr.
Slayden is now one of the A.-Y.-P. Fair
Commlsisoners. and stands close to the
present administration, which, as the
result of the illness of Governor-elect
Cosgrove, promises to still be In power
during the coming 'session. Reprisals
on King County's appropriations are
threatened by strong Inference if the
steering committee's action Is approved.
Bring Pressure on Jones.
Pressure Is also being brought to
bear upon Wesley L. Jones, who- has
the popular Indorsement for United
States Senator. It Is declared that
Yakima County, having the best plum
awarded it, out of all those at the dis
posal of the Legislature, should keep
hands oft the Speakership fight. Meigs
is from Yakima County, the home of
Jones, and it now looks as if Jones
would have difficulty In keeping his
skirts clear. He will be asked to pull
Meigs off.
Pierce County politicians dispute
Meigs' claim to 35 pledged votes In
Spokane and other Eastern Washing
ton counties, claiming that promises In
behalf of their man preclude such an
estimate. The wires were kept hum
ming today to Eastern Washington
towns in the effort to destroy the force
of the King County indorsement of
Meigs.
Indorsement Not Unanimous.
It Is asserted that the steering com
mittee's indorsement on the face Is not
the will of the whole committee or of
the delegation. There were four at the
meeting of the committee Frank H.
Renick, chairman; Frank C. Jackson,
George W. Jeffries and Dr. J. A. Ghent.
E. B. Palmer was absent. (As Renick
was presiding, he did not vote. Jack
son also failed to record his opinion,
and the motion to Indorse Meigs was
carried by the two votes of Jeffries and
Ghent.
But It is said the deal with Meigs
provides for putting Palmer In the
chairmanship of the judiciary commit
tee, and Renick at the head of either
the appropriations or rules committee,
it is intimated also that the liquor In
terests have been active in the move
ment to put Meigs In the Speakership.
So far. it Is understood here, Carlyon,
who is In Seattle, has made no deal
with the King County delegation or
the Meigs supporters, and a combina
tion by him with Slayden Is believed
likely. Pierce County is also claiming
the Speakership on the ground that
every other important section of the
state has been given that honor. The
counties that have had representatives
in the Speaekr's chair are: Whatcom,
Snohomish, Yakima. Wahkiakum, Clark
(two), Spokane, Whitman and King
(three).
SEVEN MEN CAN'T AGREE
Oregon City Jury Wrestling With
Cahill Damage Suit.
OREGON" CITY, Or., Nov. 20. (Spe
cial.) Before a Jury of seven men, this
being agreed upon by the parties to the
suit, the case of Alfred T. Howland
against Ebos Cahill for $2000 damages
was tried in the Circuit Court today.
About a year ago Cahill offered How
land a drink of whisky, and having a
bottle of formaldehyde in his pocket,
gave the wrong bottle to Howland, who
drank deeply, and says his health has
been Impaired as a result. Cahill was
driving from Oregon City to New Era.
Attorney C. D. Latourette, who ap
peared for Howtend. said to Cahill,
while the latter was on the witness
stand:
"Mr. Cahill, were you drunk when
you passed Howland's place?"
"No. sir." replied Cahill, promptly.
"Was the young woman who was
with you drunk?" persisted the attor
ney. "Mr. Latourette," said the old Civil
War veteran, who served two terms as
Treasurer of Clackamas County, "that
Is none of your business."
The line of questioning was not pur
sued. Attorneys Brownell and Stlpp repre
sented Cahill. and the argument was
waived. Judge McBrlde gave the case
to the jury at 4 o'clock, and a disagree
ment is thought probable.

CONLEY DROPS FROM SIGHT
Whereabouts of Eloping Wheat King
Wrapped in Mystery.
LA GRANDE. Or.. Nov. 20. (Special.)
Time drags on, and In La Grande where
the Conley-Williams episode originated
ihere Is nothing to indicate that Conley
is on the face of the earth. Intermittently
rumors break out anew that tne old
wheat king and millionaire banker lies
in close Becluslon on one of his ranches at
Cove, where he owns nearly 1500 acres
of the best wheat land In the valley. But
as regularly there are stout denials from
that region.
Farmers in that section have watched
the place but to no avail. The police here
are under instructions from Portland
police to arrest Conley on sight. The
train crew from which originally came
the report that Conley came into La
Grande last Sunday night, now denies
having seen the eloper. It is safe to say
that Conley is not In the Grand Ronde
Valley. He is too well known here to
run the chances of being discovered it is
thought.

His wife's devotion to the "no-toreak-fast"

ALBANY. Or.. Nov. 20. (Special.)
Citizens of Albany today subscribed more
than $10,000 as a nucleus for an endow
ment fund for Albany College.
It means an endowment of $50,000 for
the college, and the victory is being cele
brated tonight in a monster rally at the
courthouse.
It was college day in Albany, and Al
bany made good. Presbyterians in other
parts of Oregon agreed to raise $15,000
if Albany would subscribe $10,000. and
the national college board of the Presby
teroian Church has promised $25,000 for
the college, conditioned- upon an equal
amount being raised in this state. The
citizens of Albany have raised their
share and the $60,000 endowment is thus
virtually assured. It is the first en
dowment Albany College has ever se
cured and doubtless inaugurates the
greatest era of progress and prosperity
in the history of the institution.
All day long committees of leading men
worked hard for subscriptions, and at
7:30 tonight when the committee checked
up it was found that $10,475 had been
promised. Subscriptions were still com
