RATE DISCRIMINATION
What W L Ems Says of ;fEe-Kaiways of
Portland Change NedJ; :
"It seems to me that what I have said
In the public press lately regarding the
necessity lor taking active eteps towards
persuading the' railroads of this city to
lower the distributive rates, should be
acted upon," said W. A. Mears to The
Journal today. Mr. Mears is secretary of
the transportation committee of the
Chamber of Commerce, and Is well
Versed on railroad rates.
Continuing his discussion on the lower
ing of railroad rates, Mr. Mears said:
"Yes, sir; it seeniB to mo that some of
our leading citizens, either those that are
heavy shippers or those that are capital
ists, should take this ttuertlon up; but
ume calm seems to have settled over the
city and up to the present time no one
seeths to take Interest in the question.
No paper has seen fit t6 ac'vert to this In
any way and it seems to me that the
present situation Is not fully appreciated.
"It strikes me that when anybody who
Is interested In the welfare of this city
has It brought to his notice that our dis

"The merchants of this city, through

not too muoh to desire that the press
of tills city should not only print wnat

up editorially and. show What power they
may have in inducing the railroads, to
give this city fair distributive rates and
build up , the Interior."
"I have for some time past been formu
