The schedule for the present Is the same as on week days, and the trains handle freight, baggage and express. No mall Is carried yet as the company's contract with the government calls for only six days a week serdce.

Portland. July 29. No less than 25.668,670 people throughout the United States will have their atten tion drawn to Oregon as . the land of opportunity during the comtni three months by a great advertls ing campaign to be conducted by the Portland Commercial Club. The lead ing agricultural papers and the weekly editions of the. big dallies will be used. There Is no question that the ampalgn will direct the movement of thousands of people to this state The advertisement will carry the amlllar oval, with the slogan, "Ore gon Is the Place For You," In large tetters, and those at all interested are urgod to ask for literature and information about Oregon. The .dvertlsement informs the reader hat railroad rates are the same to all parts of Oregon from the East ind Oregon Commercial bodies will be supplied with addresses of all en quirers so that the whole state may profit by this advertising, although Portland will bear all the' expense. There is probably no other city in he world that has done a like thing. It is urged that all get In line for -his valuable publicity. People from the East who ask about this state ihould be answered promptly and fully by every commercial body. In this way, It is believed, very great benefit will follow for all Oregon.

Reduced one-way tickets will be sold to all Pacific Coast points from the EaBt and Middle West for colonists and home-seekert who de lire to settle here. The advertising campaign for settlers will be well supplemented by these attractive rates to settlers. OUTSIDE PRICES TO GOVERN E LOCAL WHEAT MARKET WILL BE SO AFFECTED FOR FIRST TIME.
