Oregon Railroad Commission la Pre imiing to Order a Reduction of Hate No Need for Farmers to Pe tition for Investigation as the Com mission Will Investigate on Its Own Authority. Wheat growers of Oregon's inland wheat belt may have lower freight rates between their fields and their market If It Is made plain to the railroad commission that the rates charged by the O. R. & N. are exces sive, says the Oregon Dally Journal. Some time ago, when the recent rate decision was handed down by the commission, It was Informally recom mended to the O. R. & X. that the rates on wheat could well be cut down to a lower figure than Is now charged. As yet the company has not heeded the recommendation, and It Is probable that an official hearing into the question will be had In a short time. According to Clyde B. Aitchlson, one of the commissioners. It is the Intention of the commission to take up the Investigation of the wheat tar iffs as soon as the work of the com mission can be shaped so that the hearing can be held. When this Is done an exhaustive examination into the situation will be held, and It Is practically certain that the Harrlman tines will be directed to lower their rates between eastern Oregon points and Portland. Fanners to Present Case. In connection with this information comes the story that the farmers of Umatilla, Wasco, Sherman and Gil Ham counties are preparing to present their case before the commission In an effort to secure a material reduc tion in rates. The wheat growers' as sociation of these counties has taken the question In hand and has retained James A. Fee, a well known lawyer of Pendleton, to look after their Inter ests. It Is understood that a petition is being circulated for signatures, the purpose of which is to secure a hear ing before the commission. "There is no need for the farmers of eastern Oregon to go to that trou ble," said Mr. Aitchlson this morning. "It Is the intention of the commission to make an investigation as soon as possible Into the wheat rates charged by the O. R. A N., and if this investi gation shows the rates to be too high the company will be asked to lower them to a reasonable basis." At a recent meeting of the com mission the question of the violation of the state 10-hour law by the O. R. & N. was also discussed. Early In the year the commission submitted evi dence of the law's violation to John Manning, then district attorney, ask ing him to take some action. Suit Already Instituted. Manning pigeonholed the letters and took no action during his term of ofice, preferring to pass the burden Of any such, procedure on to his suc cessor. In the meantime, however, a suit has been brought against General Superintendent Buckley of the O. R. ft N. in Umatilla county by District Attorney G, W. Phelps on the same charge. This suit Is now under considera tion by Judge Bean of Umatilla coun ty and after discussion the commis sion decided to wait the decision of the Umatilla court regarding the points of law raised by the company's attorneys before commencing any similar action In this county.

G. G. Haley, of Payette, last week conducted some very satisfac tory experiments with wireless tel egraphy between a station he has erected here and Council Crest sta tion at Portland, says a Payette let ter. He repeatedly and very clearly received the call "P T," but owing to Interference by lightning but shatter ed letters of the message were dis cernable. Rev. Haley, who Is an electrician, built his own Instrument, which is not of the DeForest type, but patterned after those in use In the navy. The Instrument was placed In position on top of the First National bank build ing and everything put In readiness to receive the message, the sending of which had been arranged for 10 o'clock. About 9:30, however, a call evidently Intended for some other sta tion was recorded at the station here, but on the hour agreed the "P T" came clearly. Off on Vacation. J. L. Whiting, third trick operator at the O. R. A N. offices, will leaf in the morning for Meacham for a few days' vacation after which he will go to Spokane to remain for some time. He has been relieved by Oper ator R. H. Haines of Union. , It isn't trouble that kills; It's hav ing too many good times.
