ROBBING PETER TO PAY PAUU
The contention of Coast cities In
their fight against granting Ulterior
points an equitable freight rate from
the East, is, aa we take It from
Oregonian editorials, that we must
pay more because we are nearer the
East.
If freight can he hauled from Chi
cago Pittsburg, Cleveland, Detroit
or St. Louis to Portland BY WATER
cheaper than the railroads can haul
It and make a profit on that ship
ment, then lot Portland, got all its
freight by water and not rob Interior
' points to help pay Its freight bills.
Let every railroad shipment stand
on Its own merits, ,
If water transportation can take
. freight from Atlantic or Gulf coast
points to Portland cheaper than rail
roads' can and make a profit on that
shipment, then railroads should be
made to leave it alone unless propor
tional charges are made to Interior
points. s '
Railroads are now hauling freight
from the East to San Francisco, Port
land and Seattle at a loss, and mak
ing It up on overcharges to Spo
kane, Boise, Salt Lake and other
Interior points. If they are not haul
ing It at a loss then the railroads
can afford to haul similar shipments
from the East to Inland Empire points
for the same or less money.
That la a fact and all the sophistry
about greater volume of business, em
pty cars, etc.; won't disprove It.
Railroad rate schedules are a Cht-
nese puzzle to all except the few In
itiated, simply because of the' thous

in favor of one town or section ov

THE ONLY WAY.
There is only one way to put the
Commercial club on its feet and keep
It there. That Is by giving it ade
quate financial support. Itj Is not fair
that a few men, or a certain , class
of business pay for all the boost
ing. The work of a properly conduct
ed commercial club is for the good
of all and all should contribute cheer
fully and liberally, According to their
means or in proportion to benefits de
rived, to the support of the club.
Try it on that basis once, pay fajrly
for time and talent employed, and
good results are bound to follow.

SCOFFS AT WASHINGTON
COUNTY EGG STORY,
From Oregon, Scout.-.
The story comes up from Washing
ton county of a hen that laid an egg,
C Inches one way by 7 the oth
er. Now the hen never did anything
of the kind. She couldn't deliver the
goods. Scientists have declared that
a hen can only lay an egg twice the
size of herself and can only do that
twice a day. Then she can only keep
up that pace for .seven or eight years.
Then there is something more that
is crooked abort the report. They
said that the egg ' tipped the beam
at 4 ounces. What a lie. An egg 7
by 8 would beat that by 4 pounds at
least. There is no bird that lays an
egg of such huge dimensions except

you are. get out of my cart"
"He's all right!" cried Truxton. "Tell
him who we are, Leralne, and why we
must get to the city."
Five minutes later the farmer, over
come- by. the stupendous news,' was
lashing his oxen with might and main.
The astonished beasts tore down the
road to Ronn so bravely that there
seemed some prospect of getting a
telegram through in time. At Ronn
they learned that the operator bad
been unable to. call Edelweiss since
7 o'clock.
In time the city gates came in sight,
far up the straight, narrow road.
It seemed to the quivering Americans
that the gates were mockingtbem by
drawing farther away Instead of com
ing nearer.
Near the gates, which were still open,
It occurred to him In a single flash of
dismay' that he and Loraiue would be
recognized and Intercepted by Marlanx
watchers. - ,
It was she who had the solution.
They might succeed In passing the
gates if they hid themselves In the bed
of the cart, underneath the thick can
vas covering. The farmer lifted the
cloth, and they crawled down among
the melons. ',
"To the towef!" cried the anxious
Truxton.
"Impossible!" shouted the . farmer.
"The streets are roped off, and 'the
crowds are too great"

"Here we are!" cried the driver a
few minutes later, pulling up bis half

Off through an alley they hurried.
They came to the crowded square a few
minutes later. The clock in the cather

He had caught sight of Olga Plata

The first row, of dragoons was al

than 200 feet away rolled the royal
coach of gold. .
"An anarchist!" shouted King hoarse
ly. He looked like one himself. "The

ColQnel xQuinnox recognized this
bearded, uncouth figure and the flying,
terrified girl at bis heels. King was
dragging her along by the haud.
Qulnnox alone prevented the dra
goons from cutting down the pallid
madman who stumbled blindly toward
the coaches beyond.
"Stop the coach!" cried King.
