. too ara aold as a commodity conveying

tha common belief here among- govern
ment otflclale who have todo with these
. matters that the plan In vogue on the
jfe Tork Central lines must be uni
versally adopted by all rallroada. The
' plan la:.: . ' . ' ' '
' ; One may go to "any New Tork, Central
ticket oXflca and buy a inlleago book at
I cnt flat a mlla. . A 600-fnlle book
eoaU $10; a 1.000-mlle book tiO, This
" book may be used by a man and his
wife, or tha buyer mar take with him

"Again, if he: be temporarily in the
state or on the Central's lines, and when
ready to leave that region he baa an
unuaed part of one of thesa books he
may dispose of it to any one else with
out violating the rulea of the company.
There are noi restrictions as to who
shall use It.-' . . -,..vtv -.V'V

naasensrer rate la Stt a I cents a mile,
If ordinary -tickets be bought,, but these
S-oents-a-mUa - books .are . good v on any
part of. 'the ayatem. r''-i-;- ::
This tttle la on the theory that pur
chase of oassenaer transportation la not
merely a personal contract limited to
being earned out only as to tne original
buyer, but that rather that It is tne pur
chaae of a commodity much as the pur
chase' of a sack of potatoes, with the
feature of a contract to give safe car
riage to' the holder of ; a ticket. The
commodity la to be consumed in qtianti
ties and manner to ault the wish of the
original buyer, vr- 3.,H-..v,r..j:
' There is a disposition among legal
reoresentanvea of the : government to
hold that any railroad company could be
compelled to adopt the Central's method
of selling passenger, ' transportation,
without further legislation; but it Is
generally thought . to be proper that
there be a law enacted making It plain
beyond all -question that that is to be
tha rule. ' "''
: Xoada roxoe Koaaa. ; - v
At the present time the other railroad
companies require the deposit of a sum
of money In excess of the price of a
mlleaga ticket, the excess to be ? re
funded when the ticket baa been Used.
This keeps in the railroad companies'
hands an Immense quantity of money
of -which they, have, free use without
paying interest. Here In the District of
Columbia all gas and electrld companies
are compelled to pay interest on de
posits made by patrons whom they aup-i
pi y, (nil jws
deposit remains there. This la due to
the construction or tne laws mat u
would be illegal tf require ft deposit
without paying interest
' "Before 10 years have elapsed," an of
ficial said today, "every road ' in the
country will be selling paasenger trans
portation by tha Central's method. It
la the rational manner and muat become
universal"

LINN COUNTY GRANGES
ALL FOR REFERENDUM

Brownsville, Or May 4. -Ash Swale
grange, one of the leading granges of
Linn county, recently voted for the ref
erendum on . the university and armory
appropriation Mlla by a large majority,
there being only , two or three out of
fifty members present voting In favor
of the bills. Newspapers In some parts
of the county ana state are saying the
granges are not fighting for the refer
endum. - This, grangers here assert, Is
a mistake, as nearly every grange in the
statei they claim, is working hardjor
this cause, t Linn county granges seem
to be unanimously ' fighting - for the
referendum. ' Reports that Ash Swale
grange is fighting the referendum move
ment are especially misleading, as its
complete sympathy ; .with the other
granges of Linn county Is shown by Its
resolutions, almost unanimously indors
ing the movement. ,
