Now, whan tha constant ear shortage Is a menace ta tha compears comfort, and Ita watered etoeks are pay ing 1 per oent dividends, tha railroad people hare decided that there la no uaa permitting us to exiet any longer, aa the Portland mills ire turning out all of tha lumber that tha railroad company haa care to haul with."' - - - -- It la aald tha Southern Paclfle com pany'! freight department in Portland haa vouchsafed no reason for tha -start ling ralee tn ratea, and In anawar te proteeta of lumber sallla aommltteas It bss simply replied: "The advanced rat mast go Int af fect" Besallatloa by BaOroad, ,-: ' " When the recent agitation was st Its height ' for a railway commission bill and a reciprocal demurrage law, the ahlpplng lntereata at Eugene and Al bony and other points held .car shortage conventions and took rigorous sotloa that went far toward crystallising pub- tie eentlmeat tn favor of tha proposed railroad regulation laws, T,hs - valley lumber mill men were foremost In these activities. It la now elleged, by man who hare been watching every move eloaely. taat the railroad company Is retaliating. . . The suggestion that the eld lumber rate from valley polnta to San Fran- dee. leH eenta per let pounds for MT a Ilea, was unprofitable to the railroad company. 1 seat by the faet that the same railroad people are hauling lum ber from tha Willamette valley to Chi cago, 1.411 miles, for St cents per ton. If It be trno that tha haul from the valley to San Francisco Is unprofitable, the haul from the same valley to Chi cago muat be extremely unprofitable to the railroad, aa tha Chicago rate Is very much lower per ton er mile. The railroad people have aald the haul aouthward over-, the Stsklyous Is ex pensive, but . there are also mountain ran gee to tha eastward, ever-which the lumber must be Qfted to reach Chicago. In the absence of no real reason for tha increase. In ratea, the lumber mill men are convinced that the railroad companya attitude toward them is sim ply ona of revenge.

They will also go before the Oregon railway eommlaslon and ask for a rate of something like tl per 1,000 feet to Portland,. .where they will secure an outlet by - water to San Francisco, , j . r Mlllmen say they can run their mills at present prices and absorb , aa much as $1 per 1,000 feet, so long as they get a ready market and do not meet with losses at sea.

Thomas, whs haa an nounced himself aa a Demoeratl oaa di late (or nomination for mayor, take leene with the argument that the rule of th civil aervloe eommissloa prevent tn exercise or much discretion la the awarding ef appointments.. He reiter ates the doctrine that "to th victor belong th spoils" and holds that Mayor Lane haa appointed men to office with out reference t their service to the party. The statement prepared by Mr. Thomas la aa follows: It haa been contended for . Mayor Lena that the civil service conditions ofths elty charter withheld from hire the discretionary ' privilege ef appoint ing Democrats to office; so much mors the reason then why he should have exercised a . jealous care in selecting resident Democrats for the very few offices at his disposal. , The mayor failed to appoint a ehlef of police until compelled- to do soby a Republi can city council. , . ' ."The appointment of Mr. Orltsmacnsr to that reeponelbls position Implies that Mayor - Lane eonsldera there la not la Portland a Democrat capable of con ducting that office. When he secured from Lewlaton, Idaho, a keeper for the parka of our city we must believe that he thought there was no Republican or Democrat . within the .etty of Portland who oould properly discharge the duties of that place, and when he selected Mr, Patrick Bruin, late of the Philippine Inlands, aa Inspector of police, it appears that he Blurred every member of the police . department and ignored every Democrat whoae ' arduoue - labors had don ao much to maka'of Dr. Lane a successful politician.

Political parties exist for purpose of good gov ernment. " People differ a to what la rood. On the difference of opinion partisanship Is based; hence we have majority and minority parties.

In each of theee callings the offices go to those wh work for the upbuilding of their particular organl satlona. If ths laborer In the pulpit working for the good of the souls of men Is worthy of his hire then I Insist that the partisan who works for ths bet terroent of men on earth shall not bs ridiculed as a spoilsman.
