Availing himself of the Oregonlan's
offer to print his explanation of the
withdrawal from the agreement for ex
change of wheat traffic with the O. R.
& X. at Wallula Junction, President
Charles S. Mellen. of the Northern Pa
cific railway, published the follow
ing statement In yesterday's edition of
that paper:
In reference to the change of tariffs
between the Northern Pacific and the
O. R. & N., which has been the oc
casion for so much newspaper com
ment. I have only to say:
That It Is a matter with which the
public is not concerned, being purely a
controversy between railroads regard
ing the proportions they shall receive
from each other upon Joint business.
The Northern Pacific has Its own
route Into Portland; It does a large
business to and from the city, but not
large enough to furnish Its freight
trains with their maximum load. Under
these circumstances the addition of
sufficient tonnage to make the maxi
mum load, at a very low rate, will
leave a small margin of profit, and It
has not seemed wise to our manage
ment at a time when our revenues,
through poor crop conditions in the
East are to be reduced, to turn away
anything to a connecting iine. espec
ially a competitor, that will leave any
margin whatever of profit.
The O. R. & N. has exacted from
the Northern Pacific for the haul from
Wallula to Portland tl.75 per ton on
wheat: when the business has been tak
en to Portland by our own line. It has
exacted $1.30 per ton for the switching
charge between Portland and Alblna.
With all the active competition that
exists between the Great Northern and
the Northern Pacific, there is no com
petitive point wherein either charges
the othr for service similar to that be
tween Portland and Alblna, more than
$3 per car, and at Duluth, where the
terminals of both companies are very
expensive and the Investment is vastly
In excess of that at Albina, this rate
prevails, and a very large business is
dene.
The Northern Pacific has not can
celed its whf-at tariffs to Portland; is
rot proposing to; and will haul freely
from all stations upon its line to this
city at the same rates it charges to
the Sound cities, so long as business
offere: but ft will not deliver (paying
these excessive switching charges) busi
ness at Alblna. It does not reach that
point with Its own rails, and the charges
for switching are prohibitory, as any j
one who notes them as stated above
will appreciate.
The Northern Pacific does not dis
criminate In favor of any port of ex
port; Its rates are the same to Port
land as to Tacoma, although its haul
Is very much longer, and Its rates to
Seattle are the same as to Tacoma.
The Northern Pa:lflc has a large con
centration of terminal property at Ta
ccma much larger than at any other
point and economy is always the re
sult of concentration of property and
business, if the business is efficiently
handled. But it wholly disregards these
economies in the making of its lates,
ard exercises no influence whatever
over the destination of its business,
leaving that wholly In the hands of Its
patrnns, except when that business
seeks to leave Its own line for that
of another reaching the same points,
and it does discriminate then, as all
other companies do, and as It Is its right
and duty to do
The Northern Pacific was not built
as a feeder to any other railroad, but
to do Its own business, at its own ter
minals in its own way; and so long
as Its rates are uniform, and it dos
not discriminate, It does not concern
the public by what route it handles
its business between terminals.
To show the absurdity of the pres
ent conditions prevailing at Portland,
I would state that it Is cheaper today
for the Northern Pacific to send its
wheat business to Astoria than to send
It to PortlanJ. The ratr offered by the
Astoria A Columbia River railroad foiW
handling our business from Qob to
Astoria aw very much lower than
those offered by the O. R. & N. for
switching from Portland to Alblna, with
many conditions favoring Astoria as a
port of export.
The Northern Pacific would be glad
to avail Itself of the service of the
Astoria & Columbia River railrv-ad for
this reason, but has hesitated so to
do, fearing this course would be ml
understod by the merchants of Port
land, and it is glad that this contro
versy has been mad public, that the
people of Portland may understand the
situation.
There has been an apparent effort on
the part of rartles Interested In the
O. R. & N. to misstate and misrepre
sent the cancellation of these wheat
tariffs by trying to ally the community
In a clamor against us, that It may
Inure to the benefit of the O. R. &
X.. while the action taken really does
not affect the Interests of the people
In the least.
Lcng ago the Northern Pacific would
have made Astoria common with Port
land In all its territory, but for' the
fear this misrepresentation. which has
now been attempted on the part of the
O. R. A N., of discrimination on the
part of our company toward Portland,
might operate to our disadvantage In
connection with the routing of compe
titive business, and It Is not at all un
likely that such may yet be the re
sult. The true policy of any railroad com
pany is to offer the widest market to
its patrons; it Is not the policy. In my
Judgment, to discriminate In favor of
any port of export. Let all of them
stand on an duality of rates, and the
natural conditions of each place will
determine the proportion of business
which each shall secure.
Portland is so well establish ?d. It
ought not to fear the rivalry of a city
like Astoria. With Its tremendous fa
cilities for caring for business, which
Astoria has yet to supply. It has little
to fear for many years to ?ome from
competition. I do not brieve the mak
ing of Astoria a common point would
seriously afTe:t for many year to
come the trade of Portland, and it cer
tainly would rem'.'e a discrimination at
Astoria whi-h would promote good
feeling and stop a great deal of the
contention between the two places.
From the removal of this discrimina
tion and the development of that place,
Portland would receive, I believe, ben
efit, as well as all the rest of the state.
It Is a poor policy to restrict the growth
of any place. Port 'and must always be
the commercial center of the state of
Orogou, and whatever the other cities
increase In wealth and population will
surely Induce a larger tribute to this
city.
The Northern Pacific ha, tried for
years to secure the right to run its own
trains into Portland over the track
of the O. R. & N. It Is still anxious
to make such an arrangement, and la
willing to pay a rental commensurate
with the value of the privilege confer
red. It is through no lack of effort on
Its part that the negotiations so long
protracted have reached no satisfactory
conclusion. But In every way it ha
been forced off by the older road, and
prevented from doing business here on
any satisfactory basis, except where It
had lt3 own facilities free from any In
terference or control.
Is It not better that the facilities al
ready here should be utilized to their
fullest extent, as the Northern Pacific
Is glad to use them if a reasonable
charge be made, ra-.her than that busi
ness should be driven to other porta, or
be confronted with the necessity for.
duplicating an expenditure here that In
our judgment is unnecessary and un
wise? If the public will only appreciate at
Us true significance the action of the
Northern Pacific in connection with the
wheat tariffs as in no way depriving
any patron of Its lines from sending
his business to Portland as freely as
ever before, and that the onty effect
lias been to deprive the 0. R. & N. of
the exorbitant, unreasonable and unpre
cedented charge for a switching ser
vicegreater than many roads make
for a 150-mile haul for handling busi
ness between Portland and Alblna, I
believe they will goon lose Interest In
what is purely a railroad controversy,
in which they have only become In
terested up to the present time through
gross misstatement of facts.
President Mellen makes a very broad
Intimation in the above statement. He
does not say that his company pro
poses to extend common point rates to
Astoria, tut the fair Inference of his
language is that such Is his purpose.
It Is hard to see how he can go back
on this plain suggestion with honor
to himself or the company he repre-i
sents. The Astorian will take him at
his word. If the Northern Pacific rec
ognizes the mouth of the Columbia
river as a common point, every other
trans-continental system will have to
do so. This will be the culmination
of Astoria's hopes for years, and will
do more for the development and best
interests of Oregon than any event that
has occurred in the state's history, ex
cept her original admission as one of
the states of the Union.'
