PORTLAND, OREGON
BILL IS UNDER FIRE
Medford Rat Law to Be Enjoined
in Federal Court if Rail
roads Can Do It-
Portland. Dec. 16. Charging that
the" so-called "Medford rate bill,"
enacted Into law by the voters of !
Oregon at the general election of
November 5, Is not only unconstitu
tional but discriminatory as well
anJ a fraud upon its face and- upon
the people, railroad attorneys in the
United States district court today ar
gued strenuously in their efforts to
show cause why the court should is
sue a temporary injunction against
the enforcement of the law.
Attorney General Crawford held
that the rates fixed by the Interstate
Commerce Commission are in nowiBe
Interfered with or altered, and fur
ther that Interstate commerce is not
affected by the bill.
That the petition which resulted
i nhaving the rate hill put on the
ballot was circulated by jobbers of
Baker and Medford to a selfish end,
was charged by O. C. Spencer, attor
ney for the O.-W. R. & N. Co.
V. M. Hart, representing the Hill
railroad interests, attacked the new
law merely on the point of its con
stitutionality. He said that rate men
for the railroad companies have been
trying to fix up schedules in keeping
with the provisions of the new law
but that they have had little success
because of its ambiguity.

The Difference Between Cheating in !
Public and Cheating in Private.
F. P. Dunne, writing the "Inter
preter's House" in the December
American Magazine, says in part:
"What we have to do is to make 1
people feel that political dishonesty '
is 'as disgraceful as private dlshon-!
esty; to force upon men who regard,
themselves as leaders of human
progress. the conviction that they',
must play the game fairly, and that I
bribe-giving and bribe-taking are as
shameful as forging notes, or cheat- t
lng at cards, or pulling a horse in a '
race. Of course, there is no compari
son between the crimes. A man who
would slip an ace up his sleeve or
bribe a jockey to put a horse in a
pocket is a gentlemanly sportsman
compared with the man who will sow
corruption throush the whole body
of a community in order to gain an
unfair advantage in the game of poli
tics. Yet decent people who will
shun a black-leg of the race course
or the card table will not hesitate to
take their dinner publicly in the com
pany of a man who is avowedly cor
rupt in his relations with the govern
ment. "A card sharp is kicked out of the
game. One lapse condemns him for
ever. We have known of a brave and
(we think) honest man who was pur
sued to his grave by the mere rumor
that he cheated at cards. Yet a man
may cheat at the far greater game
of politics, he m?y sell his hand to
an opponent, or throw away the
nuuiifcci imim iui it uriue, aim ue j
none the worse off in the opinion of
the public. He can't live down a
peek at his neighbor's hand, but he
cannot only live down but he can
thrive on bribing a judge."
Oregon Fruit Rate is Ordered Re

I. ride IispMars on Honeymoon.
San Francisco, Dec, 18. With the
ocean beach and the bay shore pa
trolled, the police launch nosing
about the bay, and posses scouring
the parks and outlying districts, the
search for Mrs. Bessie L. Hunter, nee
Cooper, the six-day bride of Joseph
Hunter of Portland, who disappeared
yesterday after sending a message
hinting suicide, is still on here today,
with but slight hope of finding the
missing wife alive.
This is the note received by Hun
ter: "Dear Joe: Oh, 1 don't know how
to begin this terrible little letter.
When you receive it, or before you
can do anything, 1 probably will be
dead. You will never know how mis
erable I am. 1 could never make you
a happy wife because I cannot stand
married life. God pity yon if you
love me very much! I do pity you,
but it would be impossible for you to
be more miserable or unhappy than
I am. Am leaving you this way be
cause I think it better. You will
perhaps go to Salt Lake and our
friends in Portland never need know
this, as they would if I waited till
we went back. It is all a terrible
mistake, and it would be impossible
to contjnue. Please forgive me and
forget. Your heartbroken UeBsie.
