Hereafter Wood In Clotted Cars Will lie Measured and Shlper Will Pay for Actual Amount Hauled Old S Rate Allowed SlUppers to Load More Wood on a Car Than They Were Required to Pay for Change Should Not Effect Price of Wood to the Consumer. A change In the basis of freight rates on wood from Blue mountain points to this city, has been made by the O. R. & N., and while the com pany will reulize full returns for the service rendered, it is not thought that the change will effect prices of wood to the consumer. The present wood rates were made when the cars were small and no change has ever before been made In the basis of the rates, while the size of cars has constantly increased. The company fixed the rates sever al years ago, as follows: All 34-foot -box cars, 11 cords; 36-foot box cars, 14 cords, and furniture cars and other large, closed cars, 18 cords, and fixed the price at 31.25 per cord, from Blue mountain points to this city. No ugent of the company could charge more for cars of these desig nated capacities, although he knew they carried more wood than desig nated in the rate sheet for cars of the given sixes. The result has been that as the cars were widened and made higher, It hits been possible to ship as many as 14 cords in a car designed as an 11 -cord car. and the shippers have been securing free transportation on a large amount of excess wood load ed into new and larger cars, which came under the old regulation. This new basis of freight rates on wooa now specifies that agents shall meuaure the actual load on evesy car. and charge the shipper for the amount of wood each car contains without regard to Its capacity. It meuns simply that the company wants pay for what wood tt hauls. The rate has not been raised, nor changed In any way. but the com pany insists that shippers shall not be dontsted uny further car space. It is a change to meet the Increased capacity of the new rolling stock now everywhere In use. It should not ef fect the price of wood to the consum er, as the actual rate Is not changed In any way. The new regulation takes effect February S. Gone to Baker City. George Tomson has gone to Baker City and If events shape themselves there as he wishes, will go Into the blacksmlthlng business. He conclud ed tflut the field is fully occupied here. Mr. Tomson came recently from Oma ha, where he was a railroad black smith in the employ of the Union Pa cific. It Is probable that his brother-in-law,. George Robinson, with whom he has been visiting, will conclude to locate wherever he does. The lat ter Is a horseshoer, who came here last spring from St. Louis for his health, which Is very much Improved. Since coming here he has worked on ranches and in the sheep camps. K. of P.

Express tike Sentiment That the Pres ent Local Option Law Should Not Be Repealed, Amended, Nor Changed In Any Way Petition Now Pouring Into Salem From All Points of tlie State Concerted Ac tion on Part of Temperance People Liquor Interest Are Not Idle. Following Is a form of petition sent by the combined churches of Pendle ton lust night, to every member of the Umatilla county delegation In the legislature, concerning the local op tion law: "We, the pastors of Pendleton, In behalf of our respective congrega tions, most respectfully represent to the legislative assembly of the state of Oregon, that our respective congre gations, unanimously protest aganst the legislative assembly In any man ner repealing, amending, or chang ing the local option law as adopted and put Into operation by the people of Oregon; and the members of said congregations do hereby unanimously and moat earnestly petition their senators and representatives to vote against any proposed law, Intended to repeal, amend or change said law, and in particular against any pro posed law Intended to take away from the state courts, the Jurisdiction to try offenders of Intoxicating liquor laws, and confer the same upon municipal courts, for the reason that any such repeal, amendment, or change would be against the will of the people as most solemnly and pos itively expressed through their ballots of the last two general elections." The membership of the churches represented on the petition com prises about 1300 residents of Pen dleton, Including many of the heavy taxpayers of the county. It is part of a concerted action on part of the temperance people of Oregon to pro test aganst the repeal or amendment of the local option law, and will be vigorously prosecuted. Like petitions are now pouring Into the desks of the members of the leg islature by the score, from all over Oregon, and before the local option law Is called up for flnul discussion and passage It is thought the expres sion of sentiment from all parts of Oregon will be strong enough to con vince, the legislature that It Is not safe to tamper with the people's law, us adopted by them at the recent election. The saloon and liquor Interests are not Idle, and In many Instances hav ing enlisted even national banks on their side, messages having been re ceived from bank cashiers, asking the legislature to look out for the busi ness Interests" of the state, this being an Inspired slogan used by the liquor interests during the recent campaign. lug in the new district will be entitled to a new school house. It Is hardly likely that the people of the entire present district can es cape being participants In a vigorous controversy, as a remonstrance against the division will probably be riled.

Box has rented 10 acres of the Cheney farm, west of town, and ill plant the entire acreage to gar den this spring.

The water Is car ried from the river In a box flume. thei luy of the ground being such that the water is secured with the least pos sible outlay of expense. Mr. Box came 16 years ago from Joplln, io., and says he never ex pects to set eyes upon a hind that will suit him as well, let alone any better, than Umutllla county, for the very good reason that he Is so well satisfied here that he will not look elsewhere In this world for anything better.

' RETURNS FROM THE EAST. E. E. Harvey Would Not Live In the "Pleayunlsli" Eastern States. E. E. Harvey, of Despaln 'Gulch, has returned from a two months' visit In Kansas and Missouri, In which states he had not been since leaving Linn county, Kansas, for Umatilla county, 17 years ago. Mr. Harvey ac knowledges many evidences of pros perity In Kansas and Missouri, and of growth and development since he left there, but he could not be Induced to return to either of those states to reside. The climate there has not changed it Is as variable and uncertain as ever, with Its violent and extreme changes of temperature and precipi tation while the farming and other industries are transacted on a more or less "plcayunlsh" scale thut jars on the sensibilities of a man who has lived In Eastern Oregon for 17 years. Singly and collectively, Mr. Harvey counted just one when he alighted from the train here, and therein the census of Harvey did not vary one iota from, the same enumeration taken the day he left for the East November 26 last Strong Recovered. William Strong, the young Kuusuii who was taken from an overland train with a severe case of "quinine Jag" will resume his Journey to the valley probably by tonight's west bound train. Mr. Strong Is in poor health ub the result of a protracted siege with the typhoid fever, and the irrltatlanal dose of quinine quite up set him temporarily. Three days' rest and Bleep and normal diet have en tirely restored his mental equilibrium.

A petition has been filed with the county superintendent for the divis ion of school district 40. which lies east of Weston from six to eight miles. The district as now rnn ed has about 75 pupils, and the slxe of the district has much to do with the proposed division.
