Pendleton and other Important
points throughout the inland empire
will benefit equally with Spokane In
the rate reduction brought about an
a result of the long fight waged be
fore the Interstate Commerce com
mission by the business men of Spo
kane. Though the 'victory for the inter
ior cities is not complete, reductions
granted will help in the upbuilding

Official city and County Paper.
sj.ortation will become much more
of a reality than at present.
In view of the way things are now
moving it is not an insane prediction
that in time terminal rates will go
and that all transcontinental freight
busin.'.'-s t nd much of the passenger
business will be by water. As a mat
ter of fact the decision just given by
the interstate commerce commission
may V considered, as evidence that
."uch a charlge as this is already underway.
JOY TIME IX ILXIE.
The Dixie mulK trots lively in
the middle of the road;
The Dixie muscle's equal to the
llftin' o' the load.
An" thi nlgh-beer is the nlgh-
est that the country ever
knowed,
An' the band Just beats itself
a-playin' "Dixie!"
The Dixie coin's the tallest that
nas ever topped the hills,
The rivers sing the loudest as
they rush to meet the
mills.
An' they'll never match the
moonshine on the path
way to the "stills,"
An' the Good Times bugle
only blows fer Dixie!
Oil, i-he's tolllble contented
from the iruirnln,' to the
night;
The track la cl'ar an' even an'
the wheel a-runnlng
right;
An' fer every Joy that jingles
ibur's a million more in
sight,
High-water hallelula time
in Dixie!
Frank L. Stanton.
Nor is it unreasonable to hope that
in time the interior points will be
placed upon even more favorable
ground with reference to railroad
rates.
Considered from a standpoint of
equity the system of terminal rates
for coast '"cities Is all unjust and in
excusable. It simply means that the
interior points are taxed in order to
make dividends for I the railroads
while the coast cities reap the bene
fit of cheap rates.
The excuse is made that low rates
must be granted the coast cities so
ay to meet water competition. It is
a lame excuse. If ships can bring
fi eight from New York to Portland
cheaper than such freight may be
hauled across by rail then the freight
should come by water. When rail
roads seek to meet that competition
they are fighting nature and they
make the helpless interior bear the
burden of the fight.
As governmental regulation be
comes more and more effective it
seems Inevitable that rates will be fix
ed with a view to making them equit
able. This will mean that rates will
be based on distance and then .the
Interior points will have lower rall-
j read rates than the coast cities for
the reason they will be closer to the
eastern markets.
What effect such a change as this
would have on the relative advance
ment of coast and interior points Is
not exactly clear. It would tend of
course to the upbuilding of the inter
ior cities. Tet the coast cities would
still have the advantage of water
transportation and with the comple
tion of the Panama canal water tran-
WIIAT A SPKCTACLE!
Why should city officials worry
themselves sick for- fear that they
v ill hurt the electric trust If they or
der the overhead wires placed under
ground? The mayor and council
men are not representing the electric
trust they represent the people, or
at least aie supposed to do so.
It Is certainly- for the interest of
the people of Pendleton to have the
poles and wires removed from Main
and Court streets. The poles spoil
the appearance of the streets and de
stroy the effect of the cluster lights.
Besides this the overhead electric
wires are dangerous in times of fire.
These things being true one would
logically expect the members of the
council and the mayor being public
servants to stand for ordering the
Improvement and let the electric com
pany's official do the worrying. It
is up to the electric company, not to
the city officials, to show cause why
the work should not be done. The
city officials should be seeking reas
ons why the work should be done, not
excuses for failing to order the im
provement. But the electric trust and the tele
phone trust will both have to "go
some"- if they, make the East Ore
gonlan believe they cannot well af
ford to do this much improving wlth
the city. Both concerns are draw
ing heavy revenues from Pendleton
and they spend but little here. It
Is said the telephone trust paid a
dividend of 35 per cent last year. Tet
only a few months ago the trust in
creased local 'phone charges and did)
bo regardless of the fact Pendleton
people did not like the proceeding.
Vhy not require them to get their
wires underground In the business
section ?
The Pacific Power & Light com
pany draws about $30,000 per annum
from Pendleton. The trust Is owned
l.y eastern millionaires and it Is said
they bonded their northwest plants
for the- imount of the investment. In
other words they have no actual
money o their own In the business,
yet they own the system and get the
profits. A soft thing for them, isn't
It?
Still jsnme of our councllmen al
most weep when asked to order the
electric wires placed underground In
the business section. What a spec
tacle they make! What, a strange
world this is!
WIPK TIII'.M OUT.
It is a timely crusade that County
Judge Maloney and others are wag
ing upon rooming houses that connive
a; the downfall of . girls of tender
years. The situation is such that It
has become an open scandal in Pen
dleton. It is general talk that con
ditions with reference to assignation
houses are now worse than ever be
fore In the history of the city. It is
particularly shocking to learn that
girls so young they may almost be
classed as children are Involved.
Surely it is time for the state of
ficials and also for the local police
to take a hand. Wipe these places
out of existence and If the people who
have be?n running them belong In
the penitentiary send them there.
There Is grave danger of European
war so the press dispatches say. Yet
there seems to bo no great exelte
meht, over the matter. Why should
