The case was heard before the Cal ifornia State Commission, and a ma terial reduction of the rates was or dered. A number of moves were tak en by the Southern Pactle eompaay to have this verdict set aside and to delay tbe rates from going Into ef fect. In sgite of this opposition, how ever, tbe new rates weredeclared, but as tbe matter was decided' before the California Commission, its Juris- . diction only' extended to the state line, and while the tariff reductions were put nto effect all the way- up, Including Dorrla;?" Klamath Falls, twenty miles amrtb, was over the state line, the railroad, company re- , fused to grant proportionate rates to? this point. As the rate reductions, ordered by1 the commission were In some cases as high as 40 per cent, and aa most of. tbe shipping over tbelocal branch Is made to Klamath Falls, the reason for the company's action in this mat ter was believed to be,obvlous.( Tbe case was thereupon appealed to the Interstate Commerce Comml- slon, and will now be heard at Klam ath Falls. 1 - - - e-ft 'W4 ig Klamath County : it i r -Mi wav' since the Straheim raiirwMiwn movement was initiated. s tl Since bis return to Portland 'is v city papers in the last few days n all devoted a gfea dealsns s);R the Klamath district, and. aw tar. rltory to be openeVuf-erBn ';' born system.
