Carfare Hearings Held at Portland Auto Driver Fined For Crossing Line TUItRISm nr;. Ore.. June 24. (Special) An Oakridge business man piid the city coffers $'2o Saturday afternoon for a little amusement and n volley of swearing. As he drove into town he insisted upon running off the road and over one of the cables by which Charles Hupp is moving his residence about. Hupp aAed him to keep off tf ml avoid the other cable. The man drove a short distance, re turned and drove his car over the other cable. Hupp hunted up the mar shal and then the visitor with the car. His rabble running cost him Whereupon the man loosened a vol ley of oaths1. "That man tfught to hp fined again," said Hupp. "Are you willing to swear out a warrant?" queried the mirshal. The man from Oakridge was soon handing over $10 more to the marshal. rOKTLANO, Ore., June 24. The ! petition for five cent car fare, filed ' three years ago with the public Rer-! vice commission by the housewives council, came up for hearing today. The carfare in Portland has been 8 cents since lil'0. Mrs. Josephing Othus. president of ; the Housewives' council, requested ; the reading of the three-year-old torn- ! plaint. ) "Three years is a lnng time," she I said, "between the filing of a coin- ! plaint and the hearing on it. The data ! gathered then are out of date. We had i an attorney then, but' hive none i now; we are throwing ourselves on the mercy of the commission." Mrs. Kate Hon ham, member of the council, followed the reading of tbe petition with reading of a survey j made by mail in other cities through 1 out the country. j The council rested its argument with the reassertion that the present j rnrfircH are "unreasonable, unlaw I ful." nd injurious to Portland aud the state. j H. 1. i agnon urged the public i service commission to recommend i purchase of the Portland Electric j power lines by the city. He asked I Hint a five-cent fare, with possible deficits to be made up from the gen ; erl fund, be stipulated. He said he (intended to introduce witnesses later j in the hearing to strengthen his nr- fell UK-Ill. SWAMPSCOTT. Mass., June 24.
