REDUCTION IN RATES (Continued from Page One.) able grain waa promised the river line by the farmers of Shermhn cduntyv but through threats and coercive methods, employed by grain buyers who had interests' on tha rail lines, the grain waa prevented from coming to the river. ' Cases are known' also where farmers who had becom. enthused over the opening of the river were paid mora than tha grade or market value of their grain to prevent. them from, taking the crop to the river; and it is also a no table fact that grain In Sherman county suffered a drpp from 1 to 2 cents per bushel, after the statement wss issued that owing to tha fact that aa but a mall portion of grain could be secured no facilities, for buying grain could .be arranged for at Ruf us. "During lflt merchandise was dis tributed by. tha river line at ai much lower rate than tha rail rate.-. To counteract this tha nail Una haa laaued a new tariff effective January 1, 1B07, In which sweeping reductions have been made. j. ' .-- Table of Bd actions. "As an Illustration of his statements.

Walla. Wall and Waltsburg receive reduction of from 40 eentt to 11 per ton. - Reductlone In carload rates have bean made either on the bank of the river or in territory easily reached 4by eleotrio lines or by team. There is practically no cnangs in raies norm oi Snake liver or Lewlston, a territory net aa yet Invaded by the river line. "While heavy reductlona have bean made In the rail tariff for trie coming year, the' river line rate Is still far be low It Tha rata on grain from upper river points will undoubtedly ' receive some consideration from tha railroad, as a popular demand Is made for the less ening of this rate.

' s ' : A rather valuable wife In the present state of tha soap trade muat be tha lady whom M. Le Blanc, a Parisian, has Just married. Tha fair bride, who waa the daughter of a hairdresser In large way of business, not only received from her father a handsome dot In money, ' but her own welgnt In tha beat toilet soap. As 'she weighed close-on 140 pounds ths couple will posse sufficient soap to laat them for some years to come, says London Tit-Bits. - When asked by his prospective father-in-law, a flourishing west end tobacco nist, to nnme the present he would like to receive on his wedding day the young man suggested a few boxes of cigars as being of more -use than, the uual gifts presented on such occasions. "Very well, you shall have - my daughter's weight in cigars," said the other. He was as good as hla word. On the day before that fixed for the ceremony he had .J he bride weighed, and that same evening' forwarded to hla futare son-in-law soma dasen of boxes of cigars, weighing Iri the aggregate It's pounds. Mademoiselle Marie Brie, the niece af a Marseilles confectioner, received from her uncle on her marriage"." three years ago, an equally eccentrlo gift tn the form of her own weight in chocolate. Perhapa tha worthy pattasler had In mind when making the present the dia tom which prevail in Peru. There on tha marriage morn tha bride ts accu rately weighed, and after tha ceremony li e - bsjdegrnom Is presented by his wife's relatives with her weight in ajjgar.' t A Yorkshire coal m.rcnant s present to his daughter on her marriage was to b regulated by her weight, for every pound of which she was to be the re cipient ot a ton of heat Wallaend. Ills Intention, which was communicated ta her on the day aha became" iiitwj nwr, mm ana waa a vonns? woman of most frugal mind, to emulat tha fat woman or tne ralra, ao that during tha six month her engagement lasted ber value want up 10 ton. , Doubtless aha would bava made further Inroads into her father' store bad not that worthy merchant hurriedly married her aff t loss of only 171 ton. 1 The father of girl living In the town of Konlggrat offered to present any ona who should become ber husband with her weight In silver currency. As tha lady waa well favored and of build which, although not exceptionally stout, promised an amount ample to make a good start in business, mora than one claimant appeared. The most eligible waa at length se lected and tha wedding- duly solemnised. Then came the moat Important fiinctlnti tha weighing of tha bride, who U her husband's delight waa found te wel.it 1SS pounds, or 13,100 kronen, aa .qulva lent to fill 10c.
