COMPLAINS OF RATES.
Eugene Mill Finds Railroad Tariffs
Have Doubled.
Salem J. M. Shelley, of Eugene, man
ager of the Eugene Mill & Elevator Co.,
fcas protested against a recent raiso of
nearly 100 per cent in cortain local
freight rates in that part of the state.
He encloses a shipping receipt showing
that he pays a rate of 23 cents per 100
pounds on wheat and oats from Eugene
to Yoncalla, 44 miles, which rate, he
says, is excessive, unjust and unreason
able. Prior to January 1, 1907, tho rate
was 14 cents. The rate for a little long
er distance, as, for instance, from Eu
gene to Roseburg, is now 31 cents,
whereas the former rate was 15 cents.
This is an increase of over 100 per cent.

Attempt to Dynamite Oregon Short
Line Thwarted.
BUTTE, Mont., May 5 What ap
pears to have been an attempt to wreck
a freight on. the northbound Oregon
Short Line similar to that which befell
tho Burlington train Friday night, was
thwarted Sunday by John Holan, who
was walking the track on his way to
Melrose. .
When about six miles this side of
Mel rose, Holan, according to his own
story, discovered 15 sticks of dynamite
m a. small hole immediately under the
rail. Holan threw the explosives into
the river near by, and hastened to no
tify the Melrose station asent. When
the northbound train arrived it was held
back until a thorough investigation
could be made.
The station agent at Melrose tele
phoned the local authorities, and the
latter are inclined to give credence to
Holan '8 story in view of the theft re
cently of a quantity of powder from one
of the mines of the district. About
seven sticks of dynamite were found on
the Short Line tracks.
The would-be dynamiter was arrested
and confessed his part in the plot.
