THIRD AND OAK STREETS An Investigation conducted by Special Officer Caswell and authorised by Mayor Williams brought to light yesterday the fact that the majority of the city scav engers have been violating the law re cently In more than one respect No arrests were made, but threats of fines brought the delinquents to a realization tnat the municipal' statutes must be en forced, and the first one found exceeding the rights allowed him under the law will at once be proceeded against. The most flagrant violation Officer Caswell found was where the scavenger drivers, numbering about 40, remained with their loaded rigs right within the city limits up to 10 o'clock in the morn Ing. They are suposed to be out at the crematory by 8 o'clock a. m. Many are also In the habit of loading restaurant refuse and then completing the cargo witn rubDlsh and paper from the retail and wholesale houses. Thus they are standing- on the public thoroughfares with their loads of swill for as much as two hours at a time. The officer made an early morning trio to tne puDiic crematory and then waited for the drivers to appear with their wagons. He found that they had been coming In at almost any .time thev Pleased, and as fast as the men showed up their namea and the number of their rigs wore taken for future reference. In case any of those on this list are found to have violated the law a second time they will be hauled up before the court. m n t mOTOH TKAXBT SEBTXCB Local Men Say that a Olscriml- nation Against inis wiy Greatly Injures the Valley Pruit brpwers. . In order that the prunegrowers of this state may . have every available local market for their fruit tha trans portatlon committee of the Chamber of Commerce has addressed a letter to tha Southern Pacific Railroad officials In quiring Into tha reported discrimination by that company against tha Portland driers. This alleged discrimination waa re ported at the last meeting of the local chamber and was referred to the com mlttee for action. At a meeting of this committee held yesterday afternoon letter was drawn up and It will be sent at once to W. E. Coman, general freight and passenger agent of the Oregon lines of the Southern Pacific. It Is thought that no further action will be taken In the matter until the railroad presents Its side of the case. The committeemen state that a dis crimination In the rata on prunes sent to points where driers are located hurts the fruitgrower, In that It simply Keeps him away from more markets for his products. The letter sent to Sir. Coman la as follows: "A communication, signed by the prunedriera of this city, and addressed to the Portland Chamber of Commerce, has been referred by that body to thla committee. "It seems to us that if the contention of the signers Is correct that a quite serious discrimination Is being prac ticed against this city and the growers of prunes In the Lower Willamette val ley. It aeema that very much lower rates are being made, for Instance, to Salem from SUverton, Mt. Angel, Woodburn, Albany. Junction City, Harrisburg and Corvallls, In proportion to the mileage, than from the same points to Portland. 'This committee feela that it Is not only to the Interests of this city, but very much to the Interests of prune- grower's In that portion of the state, that they should have all the competition pos sible In the buying of their prunes, and that the buyers living In the largest city of the state should not be forced out of competition by any arbitrary action of a railroad. The buyers In a large city generally have much more extended markets In which' to afterwards dispone of. the prunes, and it is therefore to the Interest of the prunegrowers that they should be allowed to compete. 'This committee would be glad to have your Ideas on this subject, and will draw to your attention the fact that the prunebuying season 4s now upon us and if any relief la to be obtained from the present situation, caused by excessive rates to this paint from the interior, speedy action on your part, should be taken. .' "May we ask an Immediate answer to this communication?" A ' As soon as the railroad officials reply to the above epistle another meeting of the committee will be held to decide upon further work In th'ls effort for lower rates shall be done. L. A. Lewis Is chairman of this committee and W. A. Mears is secretary. 1 This cbmihfif Saturday Night at 930 J 1 , v .-....'. . j ., 'j . i' , ,r. r. . . : ..' : ,. 7 '.

It' Mclsaac, secretary of the Manu facturers' Association of thfs city, re cently received a letter from the na tlonal body suggesting that the organ! ration here federate with those through out the country. The epistle was writ ten by Marshall Cushlng of New York City, secretary of the National Associa tion of Manufacturers, who states that the time has cpme for the various busl ness concerns of this nation to feder ate for mutual advantage. Inasmuch as labor - Is organized all over the United States, many of the owners of the large Eastern factorlea have come to the conclusion that they should' have a closer understanding among themselves than they are sup posed to have now. In order to. meet tha demands of the working men. At a convention of the National Association of Manufacturers held In New Orleans last spring this question was dlsoussed Very fully, and it, was decided to press tnis proposed feneration forward as rapidly as possible. The letter received by Mr. Mclsaac shows that the work decided upon has begun. Mr. Cushlng's letter Is to- be read at the coming meeting of the local association, and It Is thought that some action will be taken regarding the Port' land manufacturers Joining with the Eastern men.

Not all is gold that glitters and equally is it true that not all sails will propel a boat Sometimes it is necessary to row, to row hard and continuously.
