FORtATlON of a pwntniu.'itt organization by tho intM' ioi cities of Oregon to Seoitro equitable Uvatnient in the matter of freight l'ates, marks an important step in the de velopment of the state. The priueipal concern of railroads and of the railroad commission hitherto has been for Port land, because the shippers of Portland alone were organ ized, and alone conducted a vigorous campaign for their own interests. "Gp to very recently, the coast terminals were the only points considered at all. In these cities were massed the wealth, political influence and big business interests of the oommonwealth. Without representation before the state commissions the small towns suffered in silence the impo sitions and injustice showed upon them. , 'A complete organization of the smaller points can not (ouly demand but enforce recognition for the interior. The clamor of the country press, tho political power of the conn try vote, the justice of the country cause, cannot be longer ignored. Hereafter, at every meeting of the state and interstate commissions, the interior towns of Oregon will be militant- ly represented. The quarrel is not one with the railroads, but with the rate-making power that dictates to the rail roads. It is not so much for lower rates as it is for equality of opportunity. The smaller towns or Oregon have no future to look forward to unless they can develope the natural resources in the territory adjacent. To utilize these raw products. equitable rates are necessary. JNo manufacturer can locate in any of the smaller cities because of the present discrim ination against these cities in the matter of freight rates. No matter what the iudustrr is. how large a payroll it means, the rate situation prevents its establishment. The growth of Oregon is dependent upon the growth of the small towns, which in turn are dependent upon the de velopment of the surrounding territory. The growth of rortlanu is dependent also upon the growth ot the little towns. When they stop, Portland stops, and it is a short sighted policy on the part of Portland's jobbers to attempt to maintain a preferential system of rates that throttles the development of the state by throttling the small towns. iW-ft-.

The people of Portland have shown in many ways that the' are friendly to the smaller towns. The manufacturers are also friendly,, for thej- must depend upon the small towns foi? their market. It is only the jobbers. that seek undue advantages to avoid the establishment of branches, and would confine distribution to one point. If the state railroad commission refuses the prayer of the smaller towns, the people of Oregon. Avill be appealed to for a square deal. A year remains in which to educate the public and with the inherent love of fair play possesed by all Americans, particularly by Oregonians, there is little doubt but that the appeal will be successful. It has been said that Medford had nothing to gain and everything to lose by agitating the rate question; that tin Southern Pacific has been friendly and that its enmity is likely to be incurred with resultant loss to the city; and that its favor is essential to the city's welfare. First, this is not a quarrel with the railroads, but with the commission; that the railroad has made a virtue out of necessity in many of the "favors." that as lontr as Medford supplies the business, it will continue to receive the favors and finally, and this is more important that railroad favor self-preservation deiuands it. When Spokane began Jier rate agitation, she had but one railroad. She was threatened with railroad boycott. After years of agitation and fighting, however, Spokane has now six transcontinental lines, railroads fight for the privilege of entering the cit3 and she has carved out for herself for all time a definite tributary territory. ' Instead of losing the friendship of railroads, Medford will win their respect. She will be known as a live, ag gressive city and one well worth while. She will get what she is justly entitled to or know the reason why. - History repeats itself. What Spokane has accomplish ed in the north, Medford will aeocmplish in the south.
