then.
Xaay Xanl Waa Aim.
Mr.' Harrlman'a idea waa that a hip
msnta ahould be handled by the eaaleat
possible haul, inasmuch aa the proper
ties were of one ownership, anyway.
That easiest haul, with reference to
traffic origination In the Willamette
valley, waa through Portland and
eaatward over the O.-W. R. & N. Thua,
the rates were adjusted to make this
avenue the moat desirable, although it
ehut off one possible outlet by way of
Sacramento and thence over- the Cen
tral Pacific to Ogden. t
Traffic moving by rthe latter route
Vas subjected to the combination of
local rates into and out of Ogden.
In addition to rates to and from
Southern Pacific points, the new ar
rangement will apply on traffic to and
from the points on tne aciric Rail
way A. Navigation company, the Salem,
Falls City & Western, the Portland,

Rates on lumber and shingles will
not be Included In the new arrange
ment, according to advices received at
the local offices of the company, but
it is possible that the through rates
on this traffic may be made to apply
via Ogden later on.
The chief advantage to the ehipper
from the opening of the gateway will
be a better access to eastern markets.
