Recording of articles of Incorpora tion is behind at the Secretary's office. Chief Clerk Corey says that the addi tional help Is absolutely essential.

The new scale of rates was announced to go into effect February 23. but the State Commission held It up for w days. which period will expire on Sunday. As no time was had for a hearing another 0-day stay has been ordered. In computing the new tariff the rate department of the company figured the fare between the terminal and between Intermediate points on a baeds of 2 cents a mile. The price of commutation tickets was fixed at 1H cents a. mile. As a result the fares between points near Portland have been reduced and those along the Clackamaa River have been Increased. Persona living along that portion of the line for which the fare will be In creased are preparing arguments to be presented to the State Commission showing bow the Increase will work to their injury. However, in the catse of Lents Junction, for which the fare from Portland haa been raised from 10 cents to 15 cents, use of the Mount Scott line. upon wh'cn a w-cent rare prevails, is ofTered. .
