ROBERT SERVICE IS
ARER STATE POST
Baker Man Asks Support of
"Common People" for Pub
, lie Service Commission.
RAILROADS DECLARED FOE
Itaker Man, With Varied Career, Has
Figured in Important Kate Fight
and Now Seeks Opportunity to
Have Voice in Regulation.
One of the most candidly Interesting
atatements that has yet enlivened the
primary campaign accompanies the
formal announcement of hia candidacy
for the Republican nomination for Pub
lic Service Commissioner from Eastern
Oregon made yesterday by Robert
Service, of Baker.
Mr. Service frankly terms his can
didacy a "flyer and aays he knows the
railroads are opposed to him. and that
he stands no chance unless the people
want him.
I have hammered the railroads too
often when they were wrong to ex
pect their support. he explains, "and
only take this second 'flyer at this
office, thinking that perhaps the peo
ple are ready for a change from regu
lation that regulates the people instead
of regulation that regulates the rail
roads."
Mr. Service has lived in Baker 15
years. He is 49 years old, married and
has four children. A native or &cov
land, his parents came to Wisconsin
when he was & years old. and he grew
up and was educated in that state.
Career la Varied
He has-had an interesting and varied
career. For two years he was head
bookkeeper of a lumber company at
Red Cloud. Neb. Then for a year and
m. half he was sreneral manager of
na.sh and door factory at Crown Point,
Ind., from there going to Pocatello,
Idaho, where for nine years he was in
the retail lumber and grocery business.
For seven years after coming to
Baker ha was a manufacturing whole
sale lumberman and shipper. It was In
this business that he first became in
terested in the subject of freight rates,
to the study of which he devoted him
self for eight years.
He has frequently appeared before
the Railroad Commission, now the Pub
lic Service Commission, in railroad rate
matters It was he who brought before
the Commission the log rate case,
from Baker, in 1912, which was said at
the time to contain more elements of
freight rates than any Federal or state
case previously brought in the North
west. In 1912 Mr. Service was a candidate
for Railroad Commissioner on the Pro
gressive ticket. Up to that time he
had been a Republican. Some time ago
he left the Progressives and returned
to the -old party.
Four Candidates la Race.
He is the fourth announced candidate
from east of the mountains for the one
vacancy in that district on the Public
Service Commission. The other an
nounced candidate for the Republican
nomination are James B. Kyle, Mayor!
of Stanfield; II. H. Corey, present sec-!
retary of the Commission, whose home I
town is Pendleton; and Kd. Wright, of
La Grande, .County Clerk, of Union
County.
From the "West Side only one candi
date so far has announced himself. He
is Fred Buchtel. of Portland, deputy
state sealer of weights and measures.
However, it is considered certain that
Thomas J. Campbell, of Roseburg, one
of the two incumbents whose terms ex
pire this year, will be a candidate
Clyde B. Aitchison, of Portland, the
other incumbent, also is expected to
run again, though he has not an
nounced himself. Under -the old law.
when all Commissioners were elected
from the state at large, Mr. -Campbell
and Mr. Aitchison were both elected in
1912. This year, with one Commission
er to be elected from the West Side and
one from the East Side, one of them
may step aside.
Statement Is Iasaed.
Mr. Service's statement of his candi
dacy follows:
In making1 thin announcement and in
Peking the Republican nomination for Pub
lic tervlne Commissioner. 1 do It conscious
of th fact that, unless the common people
of Eastern Oregon give me their support,
1 stand about as much chance of being
nominated and elected to this office as the
proverbial "snowball In the hot hereafter."
We need the railroads and other public
utilities and ought to be liberal with them,
and they, in turn, owe It to the public to
honest and reasonable as public trus
tees. I have hammered them too often
when they were w rong to expect their
support, and only take this second "flyer"
at this o0ice thinking that perhaps the
people are ready lor a change from reg
ulation that regulates the people instead
of regulation that regulates the railroads.
In lint, and prior thereto, the people i
Oregon had a common law right to recover
money paid to a carrier in excess of a
lawful rate-, and. at that time, the rate.
In order to b lawful, had to be reasonable,
and the tact that H was a published tariff
rate did not make It reasonable, but re
mained a question of fact that could be
determined la the courts by any aggrieved
shipper.
In 1907 the act creating a Railroad Com
mission made the published tariff rate the
lawful rate, and this Is true, even though
the rate proved to be unreasonable and
confiscatory. A concrete example: A cause
cf action arose In 180ft and prior thereto.
The carrier was sued and the shipper was
awarded verdict of $16,000 because the
tarifr rate wag found to be unreasonable.
The published tariff rate was 10 cents; it
remains 10 cents now; It was unlawful
then, but lawful now. The Immediate ef
fect on the shipper is easy to discover, for
-tou!d such a cause arise today the ship
per could not recover anything, for the
reason that the published tariff rate Is
made lawful by statute and the common
law, right heretofore, existing since O re
ran was a state, is abrogated. The 10-
cent rate is exactly as unreasonable now
as then, and It was worth a SLtf.OvO Judg
ment to a shipper at that time. Is this
not too much of a regulation of the people
In favor of corporate greed, and do you
.want your common law right restored?
Many other evils affecting the interests
of the common people are made apparent
by a little study of the question.
"Intercuts Declared Foe.
I am Informed that the Interests" have
combined to defeat me In any event, for
they say they cannot afford to have me a
Commissioner under any circumstances, and
wlil see to It that I have plenty of com
petition. Competition of the right sort is
all right. My main desire Is to see a man
fill that office who will regulate in a law
ful msnner.
I can control my own actions and will
not permit myself to be the "tool" of any
one. I appeal to all the voters of Eastern
Oregon to vote for the man and not the
locality. Local pride should give way to
roroe good man from the Eastern Oregon
tiistrict. otherwise would it not be easy
for he "Interests" to defeat any formida
ble candidate that they thought might not
be "friendly" or would "stir up" some
thin?" I have resided In Baker 15 years: am a
lawyr. though most of my time has been
occupied in business pursuits up to 1907. I
am an expert accountant and have made a
specialty of the subject of rilrod rate
regulation for the past eight years, and auc
reeded In having rates materially reduced
In Eastern Oregon and In exposing the falsi
fication of railroad records where It was
rhoa that about per cent of a carrier's
jrross tonnage for the fiscal year was not
recorded In its books and was not reported
to the Rait road Commission, bat Instead a
sworn report was sent to them which did

Laurellmrst Clubhouse Is Scene of

Scholarship Funds. -
Unique waa the class picnic that
was held yesterday by the mem
bers of the graduating class of
Lincoln High School. Coasting on the
hills in the neighborhood of the Laurel
hurst clubhouse, where the picnic was
held, provided the feature that has
never been a part of any other class
picnic In the memory of Portland high
school students.
The original intention of the 40 or
more pleasure-seekers, to charter two
automobile busses and ride to the farm
of Clinton Endicott, a member of the
graduating class, six miles below Linn
ton, was shattered because of the drifts
of snow that piled along the St. Helens
road.
Unable to follow their first impulse,
members if the class, dressed in "hik
ing" attire, with lunch baskets hung
on their arms, went to the Laurelhurst
Clubhouse and from 11 A. M. until 6
P. M. there danced, coasted between
dances and ate sandwiches, cake and
pickles between both dances and rides,
that were taken on three bobsleds.
When none of these diversions proved
attractive to the students, they spent
their time In preparing the pencils that
will be sold tomorrow at the school to
help swell the scholarship fund, which
Drovides for one student earn, year at
the University of Oregon. Pencils of
green were decked with gold colors,

voice, and can soar it into the rafters

told a few good stories for good

DELAYS ALL GARS
DRIFTING OF SNOW KEEPS TRACK-
CLEANING FORCE BUSY,
Carriers Now Believe Loss of Intra
state BnBlness Between Port
land and Dry Points Vlll
Not Be Compensated For.
Portland tipplers are not importing
so much liquor from California, from
Utah and from Montana after all.
Since the dry wave struck the state
at the beginning of the year fewer
than 100 packages of "wet goods ' have
been received by the express companies
in this city. ,
Of course, this light movement may
be due to a large extent to the fact
that most of "the boys" were pretty
well stocked up before prohibition hit
them, but the absence of a heavier de
mand is both surprising and disap
pointing to the express companies.
Officials of the express companie
believe that scores of Oregon peopl
who were counted on by the liquor
dealers as prospective customers for
the long-distance trade have learned
how easy it is to get along without
the stuff and therefore don't look to
them to make the heavy importations
that the mail-order houses assumed of
them.
Necessary Proceedings Disliked.
Even the few shipments that have
arrived have convinced the express
agents that liquor shipments under the
Oregon statutes are not going to be
popular proceeding with a whole lot of
people. i
Contrary to the advertising leaflets
issued previous to the first of the year
by some enterprising liquor houses, the
packages containing liquor must state
specifically the nature of the contents.
The regulation requiring the con
signee to sign a receipt also has been
found unpopular and is expected to
keep the importations at a low ebb.
With the receipt must be an affidavit
testifying that the recipient has not
received either . 24 quarts of malt
liquors or two quarts of fermented
liquors in the four-weeks period im
mediately preceding.
These receipts and affidavits, at the
end of each month, must be filed by
the carriers with the County Clerk in
each county, where they are subject to
public inspection.
"All these things are going to work
against a big trade between the out
side mail-order houses and people in
Oregon and Washington," said one ex
press agent yesterday.
Recipients Show Timidity.
"While the first month's receipts
can't exactly be taken as a crlterloiwof
what the movement is going to be. we
don t look for a big business even
after the present private supplies be
come exhausted. I believe a lot of
people who heretofore have been drink
ing more or less regularly are going -to
toilow tne state onto tne water wagon.
Illustrative of the timidity with which
the average person approaches the duty
of signing his name to a receipt is th
fact that the first consignment received
in Portland after the state went dry
remains in the express office un
claimed.
The express companies operating ou
of Portland anticipate substantial
losses In their receipts, compared with
previous years, despite shipments from
outside territory, as heretofore the
numerous dry communities in the state
outside of Portland received regular
shipments from breweries and whole
sale liquor houses in this city.
But the express companies are begin
ning to believe that outside of those
fellows who just "have to have it" the
traffic will be light

AS MERRY LITTLE BEES

T
ALK abont the wood dealers being
busy, but think about the
plumbers.
Every plumber in Portland Is on the
run from morning to night. The
plumber hasVt even time to forget his
tools he'd lose five or six other Jobs
while he was going back after-them.
Broken water pipes, frozen water
pipes: no water at all, or flooded cel
lars. It's nearly all the same com
plaint, but lots of it.
A man in Irvington wildly telephoned
for a plumber last night- He had a
large sheet iron fish acquarium in his
attic, and the pipe connecting it had
broken, several hundred gallons of
water had come down, into his parlor
and dining-room.
It was after 9 o'clock, a cold night
for a plumber to stir out. and several
to whom he telephoned turned him
down. At last reports he was still
telephoning.
"I wonder what happened to the
fish," commented one of Uiese indiffer
ent pipe menders as he hung up the
receiver.
A resident of Sellwood built a fire
in hia stove early Sunday morning
and went into the next room to con

spread all over the kitchen celling.
The pipe between the stove and the
tank had been frozen and the gener
ated steam in the water coll acted like
an exploding locomotive boiler.
And the worst is yet to come, adds
the plumber, with a malicious grin.
All over the city pipes are frozen
and the owners do not know It. As
long as they're frozen they won't leak.
"Just wait until the thaw comes,"
said one tyrant of the pipe wrench.
"Then we will be busy."
"How much does it cost to fix the
average case of broken water pipes,"
a plumber was asked, with the sug
gestion of IS.
"Five dollars nothing it may cost
150," was the reply. "In some of those
new houses put in Rose City Park,
Sunnyslde and Laurelhurst we have to
tear the whole side of the house down
to get at the pipes."
And there's no such thing as getting
an estimate of cost before the work
is started.
"All people have to do is to turn
the water off at night and drain the
pipes," he said. "It's easy, but you
can't get 'em to do it. They don't
care. The landlord has to pay the bills.''
Virtually every plumber in the city

The heavy east wind that continued
all day yesterday did more to hamper
the streetcar traffic than all the snow
that has thus far falllen. Information
from the office of the dispatcher of the
Portland Railway, Light & Power
Company was to the effect last night
that a number of the suburban lines
were kept epen with great difficulty,
many crews being constantly at work
clearing away the snow that drifted
with the wind.
The King's Heights line was not
opened yesterday because of the drifts
and slides in a number of places along
the track. The wind on the hill was
terrific and it was found impossible
to attempt clearing the snow from the
tracks. .
All cay crews were kept. busy on the
ends of the Irvington, Mississippi av
enue and Mount Tabor lines. Traffic
was continued spasmodically, but with
the greatest difficulty.
Traffic was impeded yesterday by de
livery trucks which followed the car
tracks through the drifts., in that
manner holding many cars up and
throwing them off schedule.
Trains' on the Oregon Electric, both
the Salem and the Forest Gro-e lines,
were unhampered by the drifts, but
trouble was experienced on the Orenco

drifts throwing the trains off sched
