CONTRIBUTIONS TO CHRIST
MAS RELIEF FCND OP" THE
ASSOCIATED CHARITIES.
Previously reported $4143.11
Yesterday's donations.... 685.62
Total 94789.11
This total Is 11000 higher than
the record donation to the Christ
mas Relief Fund last year. Re
ceipts coming: in today are ex
pected to make the grand total
15000.
The Associated Charities brings
to a close its campaign for the
Christmas Relief Fund today, and
complete returns on the fund will
be in within a week.
Christmas eve in Portland saw more
help extended, more homes made happy
and a better prospect for further well
doing' than ever before, as a result of
the Christmas relief fund campaign con
ducted by the Associated Charities.
Despite the extraordinary demands
made on the charitable, the fu.u raised
Is the largest ever collected in Portland
for relief work. A. check today for
$380.87 would make the total exactly
15000. No other city of equal size in
the country has made such a showing
In so short a campaign.
One of the contributions yesterday
came from the Overton Street Actors,
a band of children whose maximum age
Is 18 years. They sent $5.10. Children
of the Condon schools sent $5, and there
were many contributions from Individ
ual children.
The gifts of food and supplies have
been so great that it is impossible to
publish the full list of donors.
A well-organized force was busy until
late last night apportioning the food
in baskets and preparing it for distri
bution this morning.
While the campaign closes-today, con
tributions will be welcomed throughout
the year, for the slogan of the cam
paign has been "Christmas Cheer
Through the Tear." This means that
the Associated Charities will endeavor
to extend the same measure of relief
at all times that it has been enabled
by generous contributions to give dur
ing the Christmas season.

GREAT CHANGES ORDERED
Marks on Stationery and Equip
ment After January 1 to Indicate
Subordination of Looal L-ine.
Trade Benefit Foreseen.
Exit the O.-W. R. & N. Company eo
far as the relations of the public are
concerned.
Enter the Union Pacific system.
This does not mean that the local
railroad corporation is to lose identity,
but rather that such identity Is to b
subordinated to that of its parent road
the Union Pacific.
Beginning with the first of the year
all the stationery, folders, advertising
media, circulars, orders and public doc
uments will bear the Imprint "Union
Pacific System" where the words "Oregon-Washington
Railroad & Navigation
Company" appeared before.
The name Oregon-Washington Rail
road & Navigation Company will ap
pear In smaller type in a subordinate
position, showing that as a corpora
tion it is subordinate to the Union Pa
cific m
Orders have been given for similar
changes on all the equipment, rolling
stock and other physical property of
the O.-W. R. Be N. Company.
Union Paclfle on Everything.
Every engine and boxcar, will be re
lettered and renumbered to conform
with the style in use on the Union Pa
cific proper.
These changes are considered a mere
matter of form, but are taken as con
crete proof that the Union Pacific pro
poses to extend its influence more gen
erally over its subsidiary lines.
While it has been reported at vari
ous times within the last few years
that the O.-W. R. tc N. Company's cor
porate identity was to be merged en
tirely with the Union Pacific, It is prob
able that for an Indefinite 'period at
least the local organization will con
tinue Intact.
For all practical purposes the Union
Pacific system, comprising the Union
Pacific proper, the Oregon Short Line
and the O.-W. R. & N. Company, now
comprise one through transcontinental
road from Omaha and Kansas City on
the east to Portland on the west.
The Union Pacific is the controlling
factor In this combination. It owns the
stock of the Oregon Short Line and the
Oregon Short Line In turn owns the
stocK or tne J.-W. K. & N. Company.
Business Benefit Foreseen.
Under present arrangements the O.-
vv. i. er. in. company is operated inde
penaenuy, out us relations with ltd
parent roads force it to handle all its
business In connection with them to
the exclusion of the Union Pacific's
competitors. In other words, the line
from Portland to Omaha Is treated as
one road, which, from the standpoint
of itg stockholders, it really is.
It is explained that the change in the
style of name is for the purpose of unl.
formity and in an effort to create ad
ditional prestige in distant parts of the
country.
"It is much easier to solicit business
for the Union Pacific system," ex
plained a local traffic official yester
day, "than for the O.-W. R. & N. Com
pany. The Union Paclflo is known
over the width and breadth of the coun.
S, BIO CHRISTMAS TREES AND
try, while the O.-W. R. & N. Company
is not so well known and frequently Is
regarded as more or less of a iocal
road and not as a part of a great trans.
continental system."
DOUGLAS ATTORNEY NAMED
West
Appoints
George Xeunjer
to
Succeed George Brown.
SALEM. Or., Dec. 24. (Special.)
tiovernor West today appointed George
Neuner. of Roseburg, District Attorney
of Douglas County, to succeed George
Brown, who will become Attorney
uenerai January 1. Mr. Neuner was a
Representative in the Legislature at
the last session, and the suggestion has
been offered that, inasmuch as he par
tioipated In making the County At tor
ney bill a law, he cannot serve as I
District Attorney. The Supreme Court
nas held that a member of a Leslsla
ture which creates an office cannot be
appointed to the office.
Governor West, however, says the
last Legislature did not create the office
to which he has appointed Mr. Neuner.
Mr. Brown was the District Attorney
before the law providing for District
Attorneys In each county was passed,
and therefore Mr. Neuner is appointed
to illl an unexpired term.
