On th other route he would see nothing but waste land. From Wallula to The Dalles he would traverse a desolate route, brightened neither by farm homes or towns of any size. He would naturally form an un fni rimpression of Eastern Oregon.

Do your Xinas Shopping Early Do your Xmas Shopping Early no value to Umatilla county because it passes through a coun try totally uninhabited and not susceptible of being fanned. Nor would the road be of benefit to points west of Umatilla be cause those points are already served by the present highway, Furthermore, excepting Arlington there is no town of any si.e on the route until The Dalles is reached. The only thing that has secured the Wallula road any recog nition at all is the claim it will be of benefit as a feeder read to Portland. But it can be shown that any such benefits will be so small as to make the point inconsequential. The much touted claim about Yakima trade is a myth and the fact can be discov ered by anyone, who looks at a map. Furthermore, why should Eastern Oregon's quota of federal money be used for Portland's benefit. Why not use it, upon roads of importance to Eastern Oregon? Wont. Portland herself gain far more by this course? "HEADS WE WIN, TAILS YOU LOSE." such a is eome-dback ' The Storm King oversteps himself when he tries to take- charge of affaTs in November. Beware of fire dangers; it's hard for the fire department to get around in this weather. i THIS newspaper does not wish to be unfair to others but it can see nothing but sophistry in the contention of the Port land Oregonian on the rate issue now before the commerce commission. The Oregonian would deny to the interior country the benefits of the very principle for which Portland contended in the Columbia rate case. No amount of shifting and explain ing on the part of the Oregonian can change the fact. Jt is a case of red handed hypocrisy. It is also noticeable that the Oivgonian's statements and i.latemenls made here recently by II. E. I.mmsbiiiy of the O. W. 31. & N. Co., tlo not coincide. .Mr. Lotmshury told us, ami he knows the tacts, that what the railroads ehieily set k in their plea is not freight that is subject to water competition. The seek freight that originates so far frcm the Atlantic seaboard that it cannot use the ocean. He spoke particularly of stool from Illinois. In this class of traffic, originating in (he middle west the railroads seek the right to give coast cities a lower rate th.r the inland cities. This is not it fair proposit ion. To put such a system into effect means to give coast cities not only the benefit Of their location near the sea but with i cforem e to rail trans portation it gives them benefits that should logically go to inter ior points instead. Portland cannot secure middle west freight by water. Nor is Portland nearer the middle wesl ban is Pen- Mr. i.; tile i r .Hll " l- Warn K -ii' -lit ily ;i s ill t' w ii to i Hie iw pmv i' u him Ii'.
