favor the organization of a civic Im

tho city council to clean Front street

decorate them.
While no movement has as yet
boon made to circulate a petition, the
frequency with which visitors to the
city hnve sarcastically alluded to the
hourly ropo throwing contests Indulg
ed In by the expressmen who station
themselves In full view of onu of

Although the federal court refused
on Jnntinry 27 to grant an injunction
restraining the state railroad com
mission from ordering into effect tho
new class rates on the Southern Pa
cific from Portland to southern Ore
gon points, the rates going into Imme
diate effect, the local office has not
as yet been advised of the reduction
and tho old rates arc still in effect.
However, shippers by stfylng their
hills of lading and freight hills may
recover later. The commission agreed
to wait a week, as the completion of
a new tariff Is a big undertaking.
However, some ten days have elapsed
and no change has as yet been made.
Agent Itosenbaum states that ho has
had no communication whatever In
regard to the rates.
