I . (Sfwriiil to Hi Journal.) " Ifedford, Or., Aug. 11. Tha Medford trafflo bureau, an orfranziatlon formed to secure better" freight rates between Medford arid state and eastern, points, ' has started a movement to submit to the people' of the state at the next general election an Initiative measure to establish equitable rates for all by one schedule of distance class lor the - entire state. A resolution lias been Adopted which will be sent to every commercial organization in the state. It reads as follows: t "Whereas in practice the railroads of the state of Oijegon for many years have ", discriminated in their class rate schedules by maintains; different class rates for movement of traffic over their respective lines upon the same article, . the amount of the rate being deter mined by the point of origin. Preferential Rate of About Half. ' "Whereas different schedules of rates for equal distance are established by the 4 various railroads which can properly b grouped in the-same class of railroads, as instanced by the following illus tration of rates: On the main Una of the Oregon-Washington Railroad A Nav igation company for 100 miles under the distance tariff the first class rate is 80 cents the 100 pounds, and under a preferential rata tariff for a distance , of 100 miles the first class rate is S3 cents tba 100 pounds; on the Southern Pacific company main line under the distance class rate for 100 miles the first class rate la 62 cents tha hun dred, and under the preferential class rate the first plasa rate , for 100 miles la 35 cents. - Handicaps Certain Communities. "Whereas this lack of uniformity in a maximum distance class rates and the maintaining of preferential class rates for a single community retards the growth of the entire state at the expense of the many to the enrichment of the few. . - "Whereas for a normal and natural development of the entire state of Ore gon it is necessary that a maximum dis tance tariff of class rates should be established for the entire state apply ing unlformlly to all sections upon the same class of railroads. "Whereas concerted and united action of the entire state is necessary to bring about this needed reform and readjust ment of distance class freight rates which can best be accomplished through , the initiative. Therefore be it law fox Uniform Tariff. "Resolved that there shall be sub mitted to the voters of the state of Ore. gon a law fixing and establishing a uniform maximum distance class rate schedule applicable to all sectlona and to all railroads according to their classi fication aa first class, second class, etc., and such law shall prohibit the giving of lesser class rates for equal distance upon the same article in any charcter of preference, such as distributive class rates, exceptions to the uniform classi fication in the form of large lists of articles under less carload commodity rates where the giving of such would manifestly grant to any city or coxa munlty commercial advantages in the control of markets and the distribution of wares, or any other form of excep tions to the classification. Be it fur ther "Resolved that all cities and towns in the etate of Oregon be invited to Join in a campaign in the attainment of the passage of such a law by the initiative of the voters." ROGUE FRUIT MEM HOPE TO SECURE SAME KIND RATES AS CALIFORNIA .- (Special to Tb Jocrn.L) Medford, Or., Aug. 11. Claiming that the refrigeration rates on carload ship ments to the east on apples Is too high, the Rogue river fruitgrowers are plan ning to take up the matter with the railroads and determine if reductions cannot be made from common points in Oregon as have just been made in Cali fornia. If the reductions are secured : it will mean a great saving to the fruitgrowers of the state. On August 14 reduction in the charge for Icing cars at common points in Call- ivrma win oe reaucea considerably as Is shown by the following table: Destination. Old rate. New rate. Arkansas 190.00 166.00 Colorado B0.00 42.60 Illnols 85.00 66.00 Masachusetts 100.00 70 00 Kansas City go.00 62.60 N. T. Cities 87.50 67.60 Ohio 95.00 66.00 Galveston 96.00 66.00 Oklahoma 90.00 62.60 Since these reductions were granted in California it is believed they can be secured in Oregon. The present rates for refrigeration from Medford to points east follow: Place. Rate. ew. 7ork 82'6" Bulo 90.00 Baltimore 97.60 Chicago 80.00 Kansas City 75.00 Thus if the same ratio of reduction is made in Oregon as In California the saving will be considerable.
