By the transportation commit tee o f the Chamber o f Commerce o f Portland the first draft o f a a bill has been submitted, for “ an act to regulate commerce and common carriers in this sta te.” It proposes to create a railroad commission o f three per sons and to define their duties and powers. The bill is said to be founded on the law of Wiscon sin, with additions from the law . o f Texas and of other states. It is very long, because it deals minutely with a most extensive subject, and must therefore con tain great multiplicity of details. Merely to define the scope o f the bill would require great space. It is to apply to every common carrier engaged in the transporta tion o f passengers and property wholly by rail, or partly by rail and partly by water; and it enters into minute details as to switching, storing, transfer, ex change of business between trans portation lines, regulation o f ter minal companies and supply o f Blacksmithing Grit.

Snap. iK T E a ra js A friend o f the H erald called attention to the fact the other day that heavy crops of corn were grown in the Rogue River Valley last season without irriga tion and without enough rainfall to wet the ground from the time the corn was planted until it was harvested. This would be con sidered remarkable in the great corn belt of the middle west, but in the Rogue River Valley it is not uncommon. A s a matter of fact, there is nothing in the way o f big, elegant products of the soil that is considered remark able here. F . A. H A W K r . e n e r n l B l t ic k H in i t h ln c » Blacks!
