B. Tongue Is a candidate for 'another term as dlstriot attorney. -K. Wenstrom, the man who was speed ily prosecuted and sent to jail because he did not promptly pay his. fine, is now distributing a circular setting forth his alleged grievance. The second case re ferifd to, against the Groner & Kowell Mill company, was tried 10 days aso. It is a contrast of these cases that is exciting comment The, complaint in each case charged violation of the law against allowing sawdust to empty Into a stream, . . ; History of Casts. ; Wtnstrom runs a little sawmill near Laurel. In Washington county, close to a 6imill mountain btream. The Groner & Kowell mill is on Itie Tualatin river. Early In 1S10 high water broke th dims Wenstrom had built to hold baclk the sawdust, and swept a quantity Into the stream.' '' 1 , On March 18, 1910, Wenstrom was first informed that ; a complaint had hecn filed against him, the prosecutions being brought about by deputy game rid fish wardens, who are charged with fhe duty of kueplng the streams free from sawdUBL The next day Justice of the Veace Barnes at Hillsboro tele phoned yVenstrom to come In the fol lowing day and answer to the charge; but another message followed, saying the .district attorney vtould be busy UHh the grand jury th next day, so wanted Wenstrom to ome that after noon. - f ' . . . ; : Wenntrom answered he would comply with the first message and go to the justice's office the next day, as he was unublo to get a man to take his place at th mill. Deputy Sheriff Quick was thereupon sent to arrest him, and he Was taken the same day to Hillsboro, He gave bond, saying he did not feel like, pleading guilty, since he had not intentionally allowed sawdust to escape Into the stream.. ' Advlssd to Plead Guilty, i -A few days later, according to Wen strom's statement, two deputy game and fish wardens came to the mill and took pictures to be used as evidence, and ad vised him to plead guilty. He called their attention to conditions at the Groner & Rowell mill, with the result that they , went directly, to the latter vain pan y' -rail U took -photcgra phs-nd filed a complaint , ; .; , It appears that Groner & Rowell were at once notified to come to Hillsboro, es had been done in the case of Wen strom, but at this point the vigor of the prosecutor appears to have relaxed. At any rate, the case did not come to trial until March 16, 1912, when a Jury gave a verdict of acquittal. Tongue's fritics say the case was finally brought to trial because of criticism that had been awakened and fear of political ef fect from leaving it longer untried. It has aUo been said thac the evidence of the state lost some of Its vitality be cause of the two years that had been al lowed to elapse. ZTo Delay In Rls Cue. There was no delay in the ease of Wenstrom. On March 25, 1910, he wrote to his attorney in Hillsboro that he desired to plead guilty and take the minimum fine of $50. Justice Barnes wrote him. saying the fine had been fixed in that sum. Wenstrom wrote back, pleading for a little delay in which to pay, as one of his horses had just been killed and he was short of funds. , April, 2 .Deputy Sheriff Quick again About Renting a Piano.

The . recent spectacular sulctde-of Mrs. Edwin Car son, the wealthy San Francisco widow, because of her fear of criminal prosecu tion by the government' for smuggling $20,000 worth of jewelry Into this port, recalls the cases of a number of other women prosecuted by the government for smuggling. Mrs. Roberta Corwjn HilL who smuareled an $8600 sable coat and some Jewelry,-was the first woman who ever suffered imprisonment at w hands of the government for smuggling. She, was fined $2000 and sent to the New York tombs for two days. One of the most famous cases was that of Mrs. Hin Dwell Jenkins, for whom valua ble Jewelry was smuggled- into this country by Nathan Allan oi Wisconsin, the founder oftha leather . trust: and John R. Collins of . Tennessee, one- of the biggest coal merchants In the south. Both men escaped jail sentences, but were heavily fined. Mrs. Ada Adrtsnc. was another fair smuggler. .: Jjtj: T.oiirni nwrt tank Wenstrom Into custody. The latter says he explained that he had just received iyv irom lumber sale and would pay the fine.

He went to jau ior two aayo, when he paid the balance of his fine and was released ' - - Wenstrom accuses Tongue Of being unreasonably harsh, and of having re o.k that Wenatrom should KO to Jail to "take some of the smartness out of him. However tnis may do, mo record in the two cases shows that no time waa lost in hustling Wenstrom into Hillshoro and in collecting the fine af ter he pleaded guilty, while the Groner & Rowell case was not. set for trial and remained , unheard of until after the campaign had warmed up, nearly two years later. ; EXPERT DISCUSSES ASTORIA TERMINAL -RATE SITUATION (Continued From Page On.) In Portland. Its line to this city was lone and circuitous and trafflo from points east of the Cascades had to pass through Tacoma. Tnis situation is now changed. The Northern Pacific can profitably turn to Portland' via the 8. P.-& S. railway a large share of its traffic. In fact, it is said 'that the line was built primarily to relieve the line over the Cascades of a large share of the business which could more profitably be hauled via the North Bank road having a water graae. rne lines to Portland do not seem to have taken the initiative in fixing grain rates to Astoria and to Portland, but have mere ly duplicated rates established to Ta coma and Seattle via the northern lines.- - . rapping Faculties, v "Another matter of great importance, which concerns Portland and Astoria, is the lack of sufficient shipping facilities to the orient. The Transpacific busi ness Of the Harriman Unes to and from the east is handled exclusively via Ban Francisco;: that of the Hill lines via Ta coma and Seattle. The supporting "of an oriental line on the part bf the O.-W. R. & N. company has been of a negllgable quantity. Portland and As-i toria axe in a pockef ; : "The result of these conditions is plainly manifest. Wheat and flour that cotjld run down hill from producing points east of the Cascade to tbe mouth of the Columbia river are hauled over expensive mountain grades to Fuget sound. Large milling establish ments have been located at Taciina and Seattle that should have been built, and no doubt would have been built were conditions different, on the Columbia river. 'l am not prepared to say that the present rates on grain to Portland and Astoria are unieasor.able. That is a matter that requires careful study. The publla service commission of washing ton, however, after due investigation, has fixed 17 cents per hundred pounds as a reasonable maximum rate on- grain from eastern washinaton points to He attle and Tacoma.' v Should Be Dtffereaot, "It 17 cents Js a reasonable rata to Seattle and Tacoma over the mountain hauls, it certainly would appear to be excessive ani unreasonable whejaPPUed; to Portland and Astoria. If the present rates to Portland and Astoria are rea sonable then the rates to Tacoma and Seattle should be advanced. ' In otffer words, there' (should be a difference In the rates applying to the two destina tions on account of the difference in conditions. . "Tn the case of the Carstens racaing company vs. Northern Pacific, recently decided by the , interstate commerce commission, it was held that the North ern Pacific was entitled because-of its mountain haul to a higher rate on live stock from the east to Tacoma man applied over the OrW. R. & . N. via Portland to Tacoma, although the lat ter route was some 43 miles longer. The difference in cost of operating was recognized as an important factor in fixing the rate. "The present rate of 17 eenta per hundred pounds applying on wheat from eastern Washington points to Seatno and Tacoma and fixed as a reasonable rate' by the public service commission of Washington, if divided east and west of Pasco, allowing 60 per cent to each portion of the line, would give the 8., P. & 8. for its haul of 231.miiea.to Portland $L70per ton or 7.J mills per ton mile. ' StiU Greater Difference. "The Northern Paxtflo would haul the wheat to Seattle 253 miles for (.72 mills per ton mile. The Northern Pacific would have to receive $1-86 per ton to earn the same rate per ton mile aa fhi S., P. & S. earns to Portland. . "The comparison via Wallula shows n still greater difference. The distance from Walllula to Portland via the O W. R. & N. company is 213 miles; via the Northern Paclfio to Seattle 26S miles. The ton" mils rats to Portland ia 7.9$ mills; to Seattle 6.34 mills. "The Northern Facifio must receive 44 cents per ton additional to earn the same rate per ton per mile as the O.-W. R. & N. The difference in net revenue is con siderably increased owing to the tremen dous operating cost over the mountains as compared with tlui river haul. It is to be hoped that the time Will soon come when Astoria and Portland will not be deprived of their natural advantages because of railroad policy."
