The board of railroad commissioners
wa busily engaged Thursday in consid
ering the freight rates of tbe 0. B. d N.
company. During tbe recent tour of the.
members of the coin mission through
Eastern Oregon, many complaints came
to them aa to charge of tbe O. B. & 2L,
on wool, wheat, etc., and the commission
determined to investigate the matter.
thorough examination of tbe scbedale of
rates of that company is now being made,
and it is understood that an average re
duction of 25 per cent, on all freight
rates will be asked for by the commission
Tbe list will be completed and soon
transmitted to the 0. R. & X. officials in
Portland.
Bat one formal complaint has been
filed with the commission. That is from
an emigrant from Rochester. N. Y who
claims that he was overcharged by both
the O. R. & N. and 0. A C. After ad
journment of the present session, the
commission will go to Ashland, which
appears to be the seat of tbe difficulty
and investigate the charge. Tbe com
mission, however, is at present of the
opinion that the trouble has risen over a
mere misunderstanding, and the matter
can be adjusted without any great difli
calty.
A letter has been received, stating that
there is discrimination in freight charges
against merchants and producers of Can
by, along the line of the O. & C, as to
produce which in shipped from that
point, north. Messrs. Slater and Wag
goner leave this morning for Canby,
where they will investigate the charze.
and, if it proves true, proceed to ' regu
late" the O. & C.
The board is subjected to a great many
annoyances and petty complaints. A
rancher, living in an isolated place in the
mountains, upon tbe line of an Oregon
road, has sent a personal letter to one of
the commissioners, calling the attention
of the board to the fact that the railroad
has refused to afford him proper depot
facilities. And many other people who
growl just because there is a railroad
commission to regulate the railroads,
take occasion, whenever an opportunity
presents, to call the attention of the com
mission to some alleged nnjust discrimin
ation or dereliction on the part of rail
road companies.
Commissioner W aeuoner ia somewhat
amused over an alleged interview which
a reporter of a Portland paper had with
him. The article was headed "Commia-
sioner Waggoner Talks," and then about
tso inches of "talk" follow in which the
reporter does all tbe talking.
i he attention of the board has been
called to a resolution passed by a recent
congregation of grangers, in which this
uoaru is canea upon 10 investigate re
puted discriminations and unjust charges
or uie raiiroau companies of their own
accord. The commission, however, de
rives its authority onlv from the hill
which created it, and tliat states distinct
ly that the board can investigate anr sne-
cial allezed discrimination or uninat
charge only when a formal complaint has
oeen presented, lhe manner of making
the complaint has been laidtlown by the
commission, and the onlv manner of ac
cess to the method of railroad companies
Is by makinor such formal nmnUinU
Kelerence to 12 and 16 of the act will
show the only power the commission has
in ine premises.
Ine board has adiourned to meet on
Monday, June 6th.
Left Oit. It is always embarrassing
for a newspaper to correct errors and
omissions. It is necessary, however, in
many cases, that such corrections be
made and justice le done to parties
wnose names nave heen inadvertently
omitted from some kind of articles, es
pecially wnen these parties are entitled
to as much consideration as any others
who were mentioned. Through the aiv
cidental loss of a page of the manuscript

cital of Miss Chantberlin's. vesterdav

has commenced toil against E. C. Cross,
in the circuit court, for damages alleged
to have been sustained bv tier as follows
On July 2d, 1SS6, tbe said E. C. Cross
was the owner, ana in custouy, oi a cow
which was vicious, mad, and dangeroo
to be at lan. On that day "plainti
was passing- along water street, wmcn
was one of the public streets of Salem
and a nile- so passing along said Water
street, the said plaintiff was without any
nezligenre on her rrt. violently chased.
attacked, thrown down, and greatly hart
and injured by said cow, ail Pi which
was done in consequence of the negli
gence of said defendant in letting said
cow loose upon said street, while vicious
as aforesaid." In consequence of her
injuries tbe plaint iff alleges that she was
sick for six weeks, and spent $93 for
medical attendance, etc. ; wherefore she
prays that she may recover $5000 damages
from defendent because of such injuries.
The. case will be tried at the next term of
circuit court. Shaw &. Gregg are attor
neys for plaintiff.
Night Bloomixq Cerecs. On Thurs
day night, at II o'clock, occurred a most
interesting event at the floral gardens of
Mrs. Rockenfleld, on Piety Hill. The
occurrence was tbe expansion of a night
blooming cere us, the first event of the
kind ever happening in Salem. The cer
eus is of the order Cactacese, or cactus
family, and th particular species, which
always blooms in the night, is properly
known as Cere as grandinorus. It is
native of South America. During Thurs
day morning tbe buds of Mrs. Rocken-
neld s cere us began to swell and at 11
o'clock the . flower burst forth in all its
beauty. It was lily-shaped, with spread
ing petals and opals. large, beautiful, and
fragrant, white in color, and measured
laterally across the upper surface 12K
inches. After several hours Uie flower
began to droop and fade, and yesterday
morning nothing of its former glory re
mained. In a short time, perhaps to
night, another of tbe buds is expected to
blossom torth. '
A Fixe Performance. A large an
dience was present at the opera house,
last night, to witness the performance
of Baird's minstrels. The company is a
very fine one. Their music, both band
and orchestra, is extraordinarily good
The only and original Cool Burgess, who
has been m balem before, when be es
tablished himself as a prime favorite,
took tbe audience by storm. Ellsworth
Cook, the female impersonator, is an
artist, and the royal hand bell ringers
won a deserved encore. Chas. Good
year, me representative minstrel come
dian, kept the audience in a roar for
about ten minutes, in a witty stump
speech, ine jokes of the company are
refreshing and original, and their farces
are very amusing. The performance as
a whole gave eminent satisfaction, and if
the company returns before it goes East,
it can be sure of a crowded bouse.
The State UKrvERsrrr. The
com-
roencement of the State university of Or
egon will begin at Eugene en Sunday,
June 12th. At 10 a. m. of that day the
baccalaureate sermon will be preached by
Rev. John W. Sell wood, of East Portland.

be delivered before the literary societies
by Senator John II. Mitchell, and in the

erary societies. On Wednesday, at 10 a.
ra., the class tree will be planted, and at
3 o'clock tbe alumni societies will take
place. In the evening the address be
fore the university will be delivered by
lion. Koger b. ureene, of Washington ter
ritory. Thursday forenoon will occur
the annual meeting of the board of re
gents, and at 10 o'clock the graduating
exercises of the senior class. In the af
ternoon will be given the alumni dinner.
Yau ixa Excursion. The Oregon Pa
cific has been long promising a free ex
cursion from Albany to 1 aqaina bay to
those parties of the former place who con
tributed to the $40,000 raised as a sub
sidy for the railroad, and invited guests.
On Wednesday the excursion left Albany
a little after noon, with at least. 000 per
sons on board, besides the regular wsv
passengers, lhe train consisted of ten
coaches, two locomotives and a cab. The
engines were gaily decorated. The Al
bany Mechanic's band accompanied the
excursion. The excursionists have doubt
less heen having a fine time, as the
weather at the bay haj been cool and
pleasant during the past few davs. Most
of them have returned to Albany, but a
number still remain at the hay.
Filkd AocEiTAjfCK. The Oregon Rail
way and Navigation company yesterday
filed with the secretary of state its ac
ceptance of the terms of the act passed by
the last legislature, by which they were
authorised to construct a bridge' across
the Willamette at Portland. This corn
pan also filed an agreement, as required
in said act, to employ none but white la
bor in the construction of the bridge,
also the construction of the bridge
must begin within six months after the
paaaage of the act. and the structure
must be completed within two years
from that date. The foregoing will be
good news to many in Portland who have
neen doubtful whether or not the O. R. &
intended to comply with the nrovia.
ions of the act.
The BEtrsiox. The f reunion of the
Alka-Hesperian and Atbenaram socie
ties at their hall last night was a very
pleasant affair. A short, but interesting.
programme was rendered. Thn annala

be Made by the 0. K. & X.
Tbe ' railroad commiasijn, through
Clerk J. R. N. Bell, has aent to the
officials of the 0. K. & N. company at
Portland, the following recommendations
for depot facilities at The Dalles :
rkcomxxxdatio.vs for depot facilities
at paixes crrr, orxoox.
The board having examined the condi
Lion of The Dalles as respects depo' ac
commodations', and finding that said city
is without depot building or other facili
ties for the accommodation of the travel
ing public arriving and departing there
from, would respectfully represent to the
Oregon Railway A Navigation Co.
and its lessees that : The commission deem
the early construction of depot buildings
at said point a matter of great impor
tance, and would recommend that suita
ble depot buildings be at once constructed
with such accommodations as will meet
the requirements and necessities of said
city. This recommendation is urged for
the reason that the present arrangements
for stopping passenger trains, partly in
the street and partly over Mill creek, is
inconvenient, unsatisfactory and even
dangerous.
Accompanying the foregoing the fol
lowing recommendation in regard to rates
from points on tbe O. R. A N. was also
sent :
The board would recommend to the Or
egon Rail way & Navigation company that
tariffs of rates on wheat, flour, oats, bar
ley, rye, farina, flaxseed and potatoes be
reduced to toe following schedule of
rates when in carload lots of 20,000
pounds, from all points east within the
state of Oregon to Portland, Or. :

WILL BE ESTABLISHED.
Salem Will Have the Free Delivery
System after Jnly 1st Gratifying-
Intelligence.
From a telegram from Washington,
bearing date of June 2d, it is learned
that Superintendent Bates, of Uie free
delivery system of the postoffice depart
ment, has decided to establish ki Salem,
on July 1st. the free-delivery system.
Tbe official notification of this fact will
be mailed to Postmaster Odell to-dav.
from Washington, and will be received
by him some time next week. As soon
as this notification is received Gen. Odell
will commence the arrangements for the
establishment of the route. It is not
known as yet just how many carriers will
be appointed, but three was the number
recommended by Gen. Odell and In
spector Mason. It is customary with the
postatfioe department to appoint one for
every three thousand inhabitants in a
city, but, considering the extent of terri
tory over which this citv spreads, three
ought to be appointed. Eleven mail
boxes were also recommended to be es
tablislied at the following places :
On Commercial street. South Salem, at
residence of R. II. Dearborn ; corner of
Cottage and Trade; corner of Summer
and Court ; on Asylum avenue, near end
of Cheraeketa street; corner State and
Tenth; near W. L. Wade's store, in
Itorth Salem; corner Commercial and
Division; corner Commercial and Cen
ter; corner liberty and Court; one yet
to be determined.
A plat of the citv. containing the fore
going stations, has been sent to the post-
a. . R. a 1
master general, ana mere Is no reason
Why tbe recommendations should nnt h
adopted. Tbe collection of the mail from
these boxes on the outer portions of the
city will probably be made several times
during the day and once in the ever. ins-
The morning train comes so early that in
all likelihood collection of lettsra ml
from the business portion oi tha tit will
be made for this mail.
This action places Salem, so far as her
IwstofSce is concerned, on a level with
Portland and other cities of the FartnV
coast. It is a substantial aim thai th
city is crowing and increasing in prcs-
pcruy, ana m oeir-y reoogwjseu as an im

Goixo to Alaska. Bishop C. II.
Fowler, D. D., LL. D., of San Francisco,
arrived in Salem yesterday morning, ac
companied by his wife and son. After
remaining here for several days, the
bishop and family will go to Portland
and he will preach in the tabernacle
there on Tuesday evening. On Wednes
day evening he will deliver an address
at Tacoma, and lecture at Seattle on
Thursday. He will remain over Sunday
at Port Townsend, whence he will sail
for Alaska on the steamer Olympian on
Monday, June 1.1th.' Captain Goodall
and family, of San Francisco, will join
the bishop at Port Townsend on his
Alaskan trip.
To be Take to Portland. A petition
to have the steamer City of Salera uken
down from Salem to Portland to be sold by
the United States marshal was Friday al
lowed by J adge Deady, the City of Salem
company having agreed to advance
money for this purpose and to take their
pay out of the proceeds of the sale after
claims for materials, wages, etc.. have
been paid. The reason for wishing to
have her taken to Portland is that there
will probably be more bidders there and
a better sale will be effected, home ob
jections were made to moving her on the
score of high water, but they did not have
much weigiit, as the boat is to go down
on the rise.
Two Vaqraxts. James Bradley and
Patrick Kerne, two gentlemen of leisure
ho are sojourning in this country for
their health, are stopping temporarily at
Hotel de Minto, having received an ur
gent request to do so on Friday evening.
They were charged with vagrancy. Yes
terday being statutory holiday, their
trial before Recorder Strickler was de
ferred until Monday, when they in all
probability will be asked to prolong their
stay in their present quarters for about fif
teen days. These are thought to he the
parties who feloniously abstracted two
quarters of beef from the slaughter bouse
of D. llowsrd a few evenings since.
For FiFTKEit Days. Yesterday even

brought up and placed in the county jail
John Inman, who was sentenced to 15
days in that institution, on Friday, for as
saulting his wife. It appears that In
man and his better half do not live very
happily together, and about a week since
be assaulted her with his fists. He also
took from her their nine-months'-old
child, and left for Lebanon. He was cap
