The Railroad
Commissioners
Arj Home Again
The saving of months of lnvesthra-
ition and ability to begin the enforce
ment of tho public utilities bill imme
diately, Is tho result of the recent trip
Kast of Clyde II, Altchlson. rhnlrmnn
of tho Slato Railroad Commission, nnd
Prank J. Miller, a member of the commission,
The most active railroad and public
utilities commissions in the I'nlted
Mules were visited by the Oregon of
flclals on their eastern jaunt. Iloth
the down-state commission at New
York City and the up-state commission
at Albany were visited. They pro
nounce as the most Interest inir and
vnluitblo feature of their trip their
presence at the National Convention
of Railway Commissioners, which con
vened in Washington. The Oregon
men passed four days with the com
mission In Wisconsin, and a dav nml
a half at the llurenu of Standards, In
Washington. The Oregon laws provid
ing for tlie commissions are modeled
after tho Wisconsin laws. Commssloii-
er Miller extended hlB visit to the
Massachusetts Railroad and (las com
missions and tho Ohio Public Service
Commission, while Chairman Altchl
son visited the Nebraska Railroad
Commission.
Meetings Are fulled.
A conference of roprcBRitatlves of
the electric light and power and elec-
trie railroad utilities of the Btate will
bo called December 27. and the dav
following a meeting of representa
tives of gas, water, telephone and tel
egraph utilities will be held.
The reorganization of the office,
made necessary by tho public utili
ties act. will begin at once. 1'tllltles
on uniform accounts, filing of tariffs,
keeping construction accounts, notifi
cation of the commission of accidents
and work for (lie aimralmit ,.11
public iitllliles companies and Infor
mation regarding the unit cost of
I each particular class of service, will
be lined up at once.
While In the Past Messrs. Altchlson
nml Miller also Investigated the stock
and bond law, which regulates the se
curities of the public utilities of the
slate. A similar net may be Intro
duced at the Oregon legislature. The
last legislature considered such nn
act, but took no action.
Mr. Altchlson says that companies
which raised their rates durlmr the
two years of delay of the Malurkov bill
on account of the referendum, will be
called upon to Justify their action
when the accident took place. She
heard the child scream and upon
rushing into the room where the two
tots had been playing, found little
Lois' clothes in flames. With quick
presence of mind, the mother snatch
ed tip a rug and smothered the blaze,
but it was then too late, as the fire
had performed its deadly work. Mrs.
Hoffnell's hands were badly burned.
but she bore up bravely under tho
double pnln. Every effort was made
to relieve the poor little baby of
the pain, but the hours afterward,

Tho parents of tho child have been
in Oregon but a short time. They left
Kansas and located at Newberg, Ore

and a draughtsman now employed In

The funeral services were held nt
11 o'clock this morning and tho body

A sad accident took place at the

when, their little daughter. l.ois, was
burned to death as the result of her
garments catching lire from matches,

It Is now only three days until the
session of tho representatives of tho
conference colleges will be held at
Seattle and as yet no definite action
has been token by the Willamette
student body regarding entering tho
conference.
At a meeting of the executive com
mil tee of tho student body, held last
evening, the question was discussed
at some length, finally resulting in
a tie vote.
Many of the lending members of
the student body have voiced the
opinion that since It is practically as
sured that both Oregon nnd O. A. C.'s
football teams will meet Willamette
In Salem next season, there is no ap
parent reason for entering the con
ference this year, nnd especially sn
since doing so would disqualify two
of the team's strongest men. McR.ne
end Hlackwell,
However, there is a strong senti
ment among tho students and espe
cially among (he freshmen nnd ,,),.
omores that if Willamette Is going to
he on the map in athletics, she will
get there hy belonging to tho confer
ence and the sooner the better. It
Is also argued that many students
would be attracted here by the fact
that Willamette Is a confer
Kchool. and that many who now leave
In their junior or senior year to grad
uate from th(.r schools would take
their deirreo hero.
The main tiling which stonds In i, 1
way of entering tho conference is the '
''"Her or nuance. The more en thus!- I
asnc supporters would overcome tills
by raising the student body tox, but
