In granting Astoria the same! late enjoyed by Seattle and! Tacoma the commission based its decision on consideration! ot sen-ice cost. Since the ex- pense of haul from the interi-j or to Astoria is no greater than the expense of haul to Seattle a higher rate is unjust and so Astoria is given the same rate as the sound cities. Invoking this same principle it will be logical for Portland to set up a claim for an even lower rate than Astoria gets because Portland is 100 miles closer than Astoria to this ter ritory. The logic in the Port land claim will be sound and that their contention must be granted in time seems inevit able if rates are to be estab lished on a basis of .justice. A peculiar feature of the com mission's ruling in the Astoria case is the intimation that Portland will not necessarily be entitled to a lower rate than Astoria and Seattle. If the principle of the cost of service is applicable to one town why not to another? If Portland cannot secure re lief through the commission it i,; possible the Columbia river may be brought into use. In the past Astoria has been urg ing the use of the river and ac me preparations were under way to establish a municipal boat line. Having secured a common point rate Astoria may now give up such a line of action, while Portlanders may see the necessity of using the river to get under the As toria rate. It is going to be very inter esting to watch the results of the commerce commission's de cision. The decision affects nly interstate business. "Where are my ear-muffs, honey?''
