fact that th bureau of railway eco

Mr. Teal aald. aimed to mislead tha pub
lic At any rate, aa f av th tmpraaaloa
that It was misleading. He referred es
pecially to a pamphlet la T. hlch flgares
were g-lTen to show the Inefficiency of
the Erie canal as compared with the
railroads. Ha alao referred to tha pub
lication by tha railroads of a pampbet
or book la which It was alleged to hare
. boon demonstrated that th lmprorement
or waterways was unwiae. "There Is a
purpose." said Mr. Teal. "by. tha rail,
roads to destroy all water competition."
JTeed of Subsidy,
By way of illustrating tha methods of
the railroads with water competition.
Mr. Teal referred to th establishment
on in Columbia river of a boat line.
"Th railroad has an Income,'' bo said,
"of 1140.000.000 or lltO.000,000 a year
. and the Independent boat line has no
auDsiay. suppose tbo railroad loiei
1100 a day on Its boat line, and the in
dependent boat line loses tlit a day. The
railroad stockholders would never feel
it, out me stockholders of th independ
ent boat lino would soon be forced to
quit" H then showed how In 1905
when th Independent boat line started
the rat on cement was 10 cents to The
. Dalles and IS cents to Sallna. Recently
th rat was reduced to IK cents to
un inuie and th competing; lis has
cut th rat to four cents. "That is th
im or competition," said Mr. Teal,
"which independent boat lines meet all
over this country;
: ' aUms of Monopoly.
Referring to the profession of Ignor
ance by some person regarding the
ownership of boat and rail lines by the
same interests, Mr. Teal said that th
' Union Pacific owned all of the stock
of the Portland and San Franolsco
steamship company, and that the South
ern Pacific's rails connected tha two
cities named. "Look on the Mississippi,
' the Ohio the Tennessee, the Cumberland,
or any other river wher there is steam
boat business," he continued, "and you
, will find that the competitive lessons
have been severe."
Citing specific examples of th "mer
ciless competition" waged by the rail
roads, ha told of the experiences of
Captain Spencer who had been a steam
boat man on tba Ohio, the Willamette,
i he Columbia and Other rivers, and who
, iiad been driven off one after the other
by railroad competition.
Ho Water Begulatton jreedad.
In the opinion of Mr. Teal, regulation
of rates by the Interstate commerce
commission is not the true soiutldrti
as some believe. Why, he asked, should
water rates be regulated? Ships re
luming, rroni the east or west coast

Salem. Or., April II. Coplaa of
analysis of railroad freight tariff No.
II, which affects all the railroads west
of the Mississippi river, ware mailed
out today by the state railroad com tn le
sion to all the commir.lal clubs and a
few of the principal shippers in the
Stat for Inspection.
When this new tariff was put out
by the railroads there was such a strong
protest agalnsf it that Interstate com
merce commission suspended the tariff
until August 1 of this year to glv time
for shippers and state railroad com
missions to investigate it with its maxe
of changes over former tariffs.
Twolrs western states, including Ore
gon, wnicn nav state ranroaa com
missions, appointed a committee to pre
pare an analysis of the new tartn and
it Is the report of this committee that
Is now being seat out to commercial
bodies and shippers with the request
that anyone who has a protest to make
should send it in to the state commis
si on.
There are over 600 changes, most o
them raising tha class, which automatl
cally Increases the rate on the goods
affected. The list of changes covers
El oases of a large sized pamphlet.
The reDort Is so arranged and indexed
that each shipper may readily see what
ohanges affect, bis particular line of
roods. If tha protest against the
changes In the tariff is great enough to
warrant It the state rauroaa com mi
slons will make a fight before the Inter
state commerce commission to have the
new tariff abolished.

Some say that Gas Ranges are dangerous; that leaky valves sometimes fill the

. and if any gas should by accident accumulate in the oven, it will escape before
harm can be done. This is a feature which makes the "GARLAND" gas range
absolutely the safest on the market.- Accidents may occur with -other meth-
