Reports from the Willamette Val- <ey, where the car shortage is most keenly felt, state that the Southern Pacific is delivering more empty flat •ars during the past few dayb than was the case prior to the Shippers Congress, at Eugene last week, says j the Telegram. The attempt of the railroad offic ials to bring a few more cars from California Unto the valley is construed by shippers as a direct attempt ou the part of the Harrimen people to turn public sentiment against rem edial railroad legislation at Salem next January. Shippers even declare that they fully expect to see thous ands of cars coming into the valley during the legislative sesshm. After the stand taken at Eugene and the reiteration of the demand for reciprocal demurrage to be made by several hundred shippers in Port land next Saturdey afternoon, there cau be no doubt In the minds of the railroad representatives that the peo ple of Oregon will persue their pres ent course until the asked-for stat utes are on the books and the laws enforced. The growing public senti ment cannot be appeased by a few ears nor by a complete elimination of | he car famine. The shippers say stiey have learned their lesson <mc • uu tor all, and will put themselves in shape so that a car shortage will aever again occur without it costing the transportation companies dearly in the way of substantial damages. » Greatest, grandest, biggest aggregation of Xmas goods ever gathered under one roof in Eugene. This immense stock of Xmas goods was bought last January and Feb ruary, mostly at import and before the sharp advance in prices. All the very latest nov ties in mechanical toys from Germany, France; Japan and the United States, toys of the very finest mechanical construction, and latest invention, at such remarkable low prices that you cannot afford to miss this opportunity to make the little folks happy and make them remember Xmas.
