VICTORY for Medford in its pffoWs to secure , reduc
tions in' freight rates nnd n more equitable adjust
ment in tariffs from the Southern Pacific, is forecasted
by the decision rendered by the interstate commerce com
mission last week in the case brought by tho Willamette
Valley lumber mills to prevent an increase in lumber rates
to San Francisco, which was decided against, the railroad.
If one reads the complainant's brief filed before the
interstate commerce commission in case :H28 brought
against the Southern Pacific bv the Medford traffic
bureau, and then scans the decision rendyred in the lum
ber case above referred to, there seems no escape, irom
the conclusion that the commission will decide in favor of
Medford and order reductions in rates.
The lumber case was heard at the same time as the
Medford case, and it is clear from the finding of the com
mission that it has follewed the line of reasoning and of
evidence that is used by the complainants in the Medford
case. The commission must have had tho Medford case
in mind, as the complainants brief furnishes the founda
tion upon which apparently, it based its structure of logic
and deduction in the lumber ease.
Exhibits 4 and 6 of the Medford brief include the ap
proximate cost of doing business on the lines of the South
ern -Pacific between Portland and San Francisco while
exhibit tt shows the earnings, and under cross examina
tion the movement over the Siskiyou and into Medford
was developed by the statements provided by defendants.
The movement of traffic over the Siskiyou was not de
veloped in the lumber case.
On page .TS of complainant's opening brief, ease 362S,
aiiei' reviewing uie movement or iraitio over rue smski
you and the earnings of the Southern Pacific Company,
Oregon lines, ocelli's the following: "The mileage south
of the Oregon line, main Hue to San Francisco on a road
mileage division, would receive half of the revenue of
the through traffic, so that the freight earnings in Cali
fornia must approximate the earnings in Oregon. No
other conclusion is deducible than that the rates at which
the through traffic is handled tire profitable, otherwise the
operating expenses would show a much higher ratio.
"In its decision in the lumber ease the commis
sion says that it "believes earnings of California end of
tho southern Pacific are practically the same as those, of
the Oregon, section of the road," and that the "commission
also finds that the lumber business over the Southern Pa
cific from the Willamette Valley to San Francisco yields
handsome profits above cost of transacting it on the basis
which it was adopted."
On page 6 of the Medford exhibit G is a table showing
comparisons of earnings for different lines for the year
1909, which were the latest figures available at the time
of the hearing, in which are included the railroad sys
tems of the Southern Pacific Company, the Northwestern
system ,the Milwaukee system the Burlington system and
the Illinois Central system and others. The commission
has used this basis of comparison in arriving at the profi
table operation of the Southern Pacific Compairy, the
only difference being in the year.
Unless the commission completely reverses itself it
must find in favor of Medford in both of her cases now
pending before the commission. I the commission finds
that 17.5 cents the hundred is a reasonable rate for G22
miles, 25 cents for 722 miles, as it did in the lumber case,
it can hardly be inst and not find that 54 cents is a reason
able first class .rate from Medford to Dunsmuir for 120
miles, and that the commodity rates askqd for in case
3628 are hot unreasonable for a 418 mile haul. If this
line of reasoning holds good for traffic hauled 622 miles
over the Siskiyou grade it ought to hold good for a 418
mile haul. .Nor should Medford under tho law, as has
been pointed out in ilie brief, pay a higher charge for a
shorter haul than Portland does for the longer haul.
king she looks very large indeed, Her face is almost
handsome, but it has a s6ur, discontented expression Which
shows through oven her frozen smile. Her features are
strong and determined Her figure is good, She does
hot look hor 40 odd yeirs -at least, not in tho paint, pow
dor and enamel Which she wears on dress parade. -
"An Englishman will tell yoiW.hat the kingconsider
ed just as a king is merely n symbol. King (leorgo looks
the part, lie certainly does not look iko a man of flesh
and blood. The queen looks more like a woman thah the
king looks like a man, but. not much more. What they most
rcseinble-rwhen they appear in public at. any rate is
two highly expensive, exquisitely painted, beautifully
turned out mechanical toys." ,
And dolls is about all they amount to in the govern
nient of the empire.

ROYALTY AT CLOSE RANGE
HOW the British coronation impressed, many obser
vers iS'fihown in the following from a correspondent
who witnessed the pomp and panoply of the medeival
ceremony, revived to fool a people clamoring for the
abolition of nobility:
"Slowly the landau rolled along. In it sat what look
ed like two dolls groomed to an almost supernatural de
gree of perfection, but only dolls. There seemed nothing
human about them. Their eyes had a vacant, glassy
stare. King and Quceii alike, they were painted and pow
dered and enamelled until their faces looked like china.
The lips of each were twisted into the semblence of a smile
a faint frozen siriile.
"As the landau drew nearer each of its two occupants
were seen to be bowing, slightly but constantly, first to
the right and then to tho left. They Were automatic,
mechanical bows, such as a wax figure might make if it
had the necessary machinery inside. As the king bowed
alid tUrlied his head from side to side, he kept incessant
ly raising his hand to the peak of his admiral's cocked
hat. The queen only bowed and turned her head ceaseless
ly from side to side and smiled frozen smiles. The bows
were about fifteen seconds apart. Seemingly the machin
ry was adjusted to four bows per minute, with a corres
ponding number of right and left turns, of the head.
'"The king is a small man painfully small. "Common"
is the best word to describe his looks. Only common is not
a strong enough word. His majesty is so common as to
be positively conspicuous. The East End of London
swarms with men of just such faces and just such figures.
The king has them, however, in the superlative degree.
His chin recedes sharply. The pointed beard which he
has cultivated to conceal this recession fails of its pur
pose. It recedes, too. His eyes look unspeakably bored
and weary. They have in them also a certain suggestion
of appeal. His shoulders are narrow and his figure slight.
