\ BILL AGAINST DISCRIMINATION
AGAINST OREGON BY
RAILROADS.

Rep, Miller, of the committee on
railroads, has prepared bill on the
above subject. 1t declares that rates
shall be justland reasonable, and as
Rep, Geer's bill gives the commits.
sion full power to secure, establish
and enforce such rates the bill is
along the line of good policy.
The important clause of the bill is
as follows:
Section 3. That 1t shall be unIaw-
iul for any common carrier subject
10 the provisions of this Act to
charge or receive any greater COM
pensation for n like service in the
transportation of freight in carload
lots of "A similar class per ton per
mile between points in the State of
Oregon, than il charges or receives
per ton per mile for freight of sim.
liar class destined to orOriginatIng at
common points outside of the limits
ot this state: provided, this section
shall not apply ON shipments with
IN the state of Oregon for distances
'A'NNNA Wv AAAAAhAAHA AAAlANNs
This proviso at the end Of this sec
ton raises many questions-too
many, and would, 10 a great extent,
defeat the operation of this act.
What the shippers of this state are
now suffering from is excessive local
rates, As compared with low rates
granted to shippers without the
state to points in ore gon. The cor
poation system at present is To give
all the advantage of low rates To
long haul and competitive points,
hence Determinations against manu-
hcturers, merchants aud shippers
generally who wish to ship for short
distances 10 or from points within
the state. For instance, tho lumber
can be produced as cheaply at Can
by, Or, AS AZ Portland, or Bucoda.
Wash; under the present system
the Casby rate TO Salem is disrrim.
inatlngly high as compared with
the rate from Portland or Bucoda.
Portland being competitive point.
Snd Bucoda Ia another state. With
terminal charges added, there is no
good reason why a SAN mil within
the state should Not have every adj.

PHOTOGRAPHS OF GRIM NALs.-
Since the convention of sherifis was
held some months ago the subject of
establishing rogues' gallery has
been discussed more or less IN the
public press and especially among
peace preserving officers. Such a
scheme would doubtless aid materi.
ally In capturing criminals and
bringing them to justice and thereby
lessen crime. A bill will probably
be introduced during the present SEES
sion Of legislature asking that body
10 appropriate $1,000 for the estab-
llshment Of such gallery. A prom
inent member OF the house was
heard to remark II few days ago that
II would probably be advisable 10 al
low one Of the Salem papers TO make
the photographs as II had started
out on pretentious scale, In photo
graphing men. The JOURNAL has
not undertaken that great work.

CITIZENS IN CONFERENCE.

Discuss the Importance Of Villa
mette University.

About two dozen Of the leading
capitalists and business men Of Sa-
lem met in the parlors Of the Capt.
tai National bank last night To take
some steps toward putting the
Willamette university on iinan-
cal basis, and providing a suitable
location where ample grounds can
had for a campus, that will not
only fill the present demands hu'
for all further wants in thar line.
w. J. Herren was chosen chairman
Of the meeting and o. NJ. smith

Geo. p. Hughes was called on to

responded by giving the exact finan-
cial situation Of the school and ils
present needs. Mr.. Hughes is secre-
tary of the board of trustees and
keeps a record Of all money received
and paid out and fully understands
the wants of the school. He spoke
Of what the citizens had done for
the school and what it had done for
lhcm iu return; and that many sac
rilices had been made by the friends
Of the University to hold it in Sa-
lem. He said that men in the city
who had not given much thought to
the school while everything was
moving along quietly are now TAX
ing "a deep interest in the retaiuing
of the institution at Salem, aud
they are willing to work for that
end.
DIR. Rowland, Judge Henry aud
others spoke in favor of the citizens
taking the matter in hard and max
ing the Willamette a great school.
Judge Henry said he came to Salem
for the reason that the University is
here and that Salem is the only
proper home for the school.
The unanimous voice of those
present last night was that the citi-
zens should rally around the school
and give a strong support. The
following resolution was adopted by
"a unanimous vote.
"Resolved, that we, as citizens of
Salem, realize the Importance of
the Willamette university to this
community, and realize its need for
more educational facilities, and be-
Iieye it our duty TO use all legiti-
mate means TO place that institu-
ton in II position to meet the de-
mands being made upon it,"
Messrs. Judge Henry,H. w. Cottle
and T.. NJ. Waite were appointed Il
committee to devise ways and means
to carry out the intent of the meet
ing. The chairman, WI. Herren,
was added to the committee as
chairmaL Of th., body. The meet
ing then adjouracd to meet at the

to be very light on the sound and
there are more boats than are need

will be need for Seaside boat, and
II the water is too low at llwacO for

II the boat is ready when he reaches
