April 80, Oregon generally la to profit by tha reduction in passenger . rate which will become effective on tha for- . mar data on all railroads leading: west. . Tha rates not only apply to Portland, but' to every railroad town and city in tha state, and Oregon should In eonse- , aueoce profit largely through, tha weeping- reductions made by tha roads to Increase the population of the state; TWen'ty-flva .dullurs is ' the average .'rata from the , middle west. Including tha Important cities on the Missouri as wall as tha Mississippi, to almost ( any point in Oregon. ' , , These rates are Rood on any and all railroads leading wast, and while tha ' cities are named here from which -tha rates are good, it must be borne In mind that tha same rates are available from - th ' smaller points " adjacent ' to - -the cities. For Instance, a vast portion of the -northwest. Including the most of. Minnesota and the Dakotae.. take the St. Paul and Minneapolis rate, while . Kansas, Nebraska and a large portion of Iowa and Mlenourt take tha rata from Kansas City, St. Joseph and Oma ha. Sioux City, etc. " .

There are thousands of - Inquiries about the Willamette valley, and the opportunities presented throughout sll western Oregon. The same la true with reference to tha wheat and live stock portions of eastern Oregon. Irrigation Is 'the cause of many inquiries. Fruit-growing and poultry-raising are ,e"also subjects of interest In Ihe bulk of " letters received. The Commercial club mentions in its review of tHe colonist rates just Issued, that it will be the fault-of the business men and property holders in the many eommunltiea of " Oregon If these questions are not an swered, because the entire expense Is embraced in stamps, dark hire and the printed matter.. ' ' ' ' 'Tha " Commercial club " urges every oommerclal and Industrial body in the state of Oregon, as well as every real eatate firm snd corporation, to make these rates either Introductory or the central feature of their advertising. If a real eatate man's clientele Is in the state of Kansas, for Instance, let blm give the rate aa from thf state of Kan sas, and circulate the matter there In order to make it local at tha other end of the line.
