Thomas, public utilities com missioner, and an order entered directing the company on October 1st to lower its rates in the territory it serves in Ore gon by an average of 10. Company's counsel declares the srder confiscatory and announces hip intention to appeal to the courts. The Northwestern Electric company case may well oecome a test case for utility regulation in Oregon. If so, it does not seem that the consumers could ask for a better case upon which to base their claim for regulation that reg ulates. The development of thi3 casejby Judge Thomas and the engineers and accountants in his department was careful and painstaking. The department was fortunate in working with a company of rather recent origin, whose books and papers were complete. 'Thus it became possible to analyze complete ly the investment of the company, the capital structure, and the operating expenses. This was done in a thorough man ner. Usually the great point of contention is over actual in vestment or plant valuation. In this case state and company engineers camevery close together, sp close that there is left practically no dispute on this ground. The real bone of contention came in the allocation of valuation, of generating plants and main distributing lines between the two states of Oregon and Washington. The company operates in both states, with one hydro plant in Washington and steam plants i drops into a common pool for wasmngton is chiefly industrial for a big paper mill at Cam as, which enjoys a low rate.

Since the pur pose of the inquiry was to find out what the returns should be, gross returns could hardly be used to figure from to de termine what. the valuation may be. His findings in this particular seem supported by decision of the U. S. courts. So Judge Thomas used the other methods of allocating the property: the peak system demand and. the kilowatt hours, both indicating the demands and the use of the gen erating property by the two states. This method seems rea- ... - - " wh6ui ta wiiaumm; connected loaa and kilowatt .wuAo. xii.cAc wuw Bcera men zo De no valid objection for using these methods to arrive at the valuation properly as signed to Oregon. When this was done the commissioner fixed his valua tion and then determined his rates. The rate base would seem also to be fair to the company.

HENDRICKS Willamette valley In 1841: S (Continuing from yesterday:) "On reaching the river, we found one of Mr. Ogden's boats manned by If voyageus, all gaily dressed in their ribands and plumes; the former tied in large bunches of divers colors, with numerous ends floating in the breeze. "The boat was somewhat of the model of our whale boats, only much larger, and of the kind built expressly to accommodate the trade; they are provided yearly at Okanagon, and are constructed in a few day.; they are clinker-built, and all the timber, are flat These boats are so light that they are easily carried across the portages. They nse the gum of the pine to cover them Instead of pitch. After having a hearty shake of the hand, Captain Varney, Mr. Ogden, and myself, embarked. V "The signal being given, we shoved off, and the voyaeeurs at once struck up one of their boat stream for some distance, we made a graceful .weep to reach the center, and passed by the spectator, with great animation. The boat and voyageura seemed a fit object to grace the wide-flowing river. On we merrily went, while each voyageur In succes Daily Health Talks By ROYAL S. COPEI.ANI). M. D.

In two hours and a half we reached the mouth ot the Cowliti, a distance of 35 miles. In the Cowlit. wo found a strong current to contend against, and by nightfall they had proceeded only 12 mile, further. as we encamped, the weather changed, and rain began to fall, which lasted till morning. "I had much amusement In watching the "voyageurs, who are as peculiar in their way. as sail ors.

Never run, because running will stir the flames and cause them to burn more. If a blanket is not within reach, lie down and roll over slowly. As you roll, beat out the flames with your hands.

A form of treatment which was suceessf ally used during the World War is now known as the "taani acid treatment.'' It controls the pain and prevents sear formatioa. When properly administered this method hastens convalescence aad prevents complications. Children should never be per mitted near fires or stoves.
