"Ths division point now Is Ashland.
All business north of that point moves
via Portland snd ths Union- Paclflo
system. Lumber shipments via ths
Ogden gstewsy srs very light The
cause Is tho adverse influence of South

shipper places his order for a car with
ths local agent, under normal condi

as to the difficulty of securing cars.
ths futility of routing their shipments
In any manner opposed to ths wishes of
ths railroad agsnts, and ths fsct thst
they wera no longer solicited by rlvsl
agents of ths Union Psclfio and South

tha bops went via he Suneet route."
said Mr. Lachmund. "Tba Salem' agent
notified as about sis months sgo thst
ths railroad company preferred that
tha hops go sast vis ths Union Paclflo.
No hops are now being shipped via tha
Sunset routs. In former years aa agent
of a competing line would often eome
and help weigh snd label a hop ship-
meat - Competition was hot There has
been none of this since 1901. ' The D, e

, Two Wholesalers Testify.
Alexander Kerr, a wholesals grocer In
Portland, testified that there is no
longer competition for esstern ship
ments between the Southern Paclllo and
Union Psclfio llnss, and both srs now
represented by the asms solicitors In
Portland. W. A, Breymsn, a msaufsc
turing saddler, gave slmllsr testimony,
He said la former, days . his house

route. Now they ship altogether by
rail. The service Is worse In tha lsst

But the 11ns has never been extended.
Mr. Cotton asked who made the prep
osition, and tbe wltneaa replied -thst it
came from men very close to the Har
riman management. After urging by
Mr. Cotton sod Commissioner Lane, Mr.
Wittenberg named T. H. Wilcox and
W. M. Ladi as the men who proposed
tha subscribing of ths funds. Refer
ring to the water lines between Port

said: -

"Prior to 1001 we were solicited for

sre so obsolete thst they refuse to take

points have not yet been advanced, but

severely criticised the train service between-

the diner service between this city snu

Think Of nearly ONE HUNDRED MILLIONS of boxes of
Cascarets sold In the last eleven years, all on the pure merit of
this wonderful preparation, and every tablet of nearly a BILLION
TABLETS bavin exactly the same Purity, Quality and Medi
cinal Merit as tbe rest oftbem. It is the PURITY, 01 PRO
CESS that made this seeming; miracle possible -purity to the
sense of exactness, nicety, care and selection. 'P -f . ; ;
When, fa 1898, Cascareta weratrfeed,-Aei)rirpota of hg makers
was to make lha best Bowel Remedy ever designed and compounded. Tha ,
preparation wat to ba pure and harmless, msds by PURE PROCESSES, -and
gold under pare promise that it would accomplish always what wis
claimed, with tha alternative of a gjuaranty or money refunded. . , -.
The grateful recommendation of hundreds of thousands of pleased!
patrons who found Cascareta to bo TRUE and dependable waa by far ths
greatest element in the -promotionf -their" auccessr ; . ' ' Y
Now that tha PURS FOOD AND DRUO ACT has fona Into effect.

plified by Cgscareta, a purs, honest harmless, reliable article for tho pre
vention snd alleviation of all diseases of ths stomach snd bowels. .. ' ( '
What stronrer axtument than ths favor of millions of satisfied friends,
of whom hundreds of thousands have been relieved of treat sufferings, can
ba offered to him or her who has not tried Cascarets when in trouble? Tha
lightest attack of irregularity, eostiveneis, colic, headache, flatulency, all
the signs of impending CONSTIPATION should bs heeded ss a warning,
snd immediate recourse bs taken to that great preventive of disease, Cas . '
'"'The specific purpose ot Cascareta Is not alone aa a treatment for ths :
curs of Constipation, but even mors so, to keep ths entire food-canal clean
and antiseptic, destroying all disease germs before they can form lodg
