Committing OTenses of Serious Nature
at New Orleans.
New ORLEANS, May 25-The car drivers
strike has assumed serious proportions and
rioting has been going on all over the city
since early yesterday morning. The mayor
has sworn over 100 citizens as officers
who will accompany the few cars that are
being run, The police force are eX-
hausted, having been on duty since the
strike began. Over fifty of the strikers
were arrested yesterday for throwing cars
from the tracks and in the police court
they were heavily fined. The presidents
of the various railroad lines have at
tempted to have the strike settled by arbi-
tration, but the union will not listen to
any such a proposition. The strike has
affected every labor organization in the
city, and a general tie-up is expected.

of California. The building on the cor
ner of First and Oak, similar in appear
ance, and to which the telegram refers,
was built by Hon. Josiah Failing, the
father of Portlahd's Public School sys-
tenn about the year 1852. When these
buildings were put up a strong rivalry
existed between the town of Portland
and town-sites all down along the rivers
to Astoria. At upper Astoria the gov
ernment, through Gen. John Adair, had
just completed the first Federal building
on the Pacific coast, at enormous ex-
pense. It was frame structure, and is
still standing, but superanuated. This
structure, then the custom house for the
Oregon collections district, gave Astoria
the best end of the controversy for some
time, but after Portland began the erec-
ton of permanent brick structures, -

government officials for borrowing and
wearing out his tubs, weighing imported
salt, etc., congress allowed the secretary
of the treasury to issue documents, etc.,

collections district was created, and Port
land became headquarters. The BRICK
buildings, on Oak street, undoubtedly
furnished the start, which has since lead
on to supremacy.

New Tactics.

The Union Pacific still maintains its
determination to fight the peoples
boats, but the company has changed its
tactics and the new tactics are not a
whit less dangerous than the old while
they are infinitely more annoying. The
difference between the old and the new
is the difference between competition
and, stealing. Last fall the company
PLACED river transportation below living
rates and hired a plant tool in this city
to buy up wheat that naturally would
have been shipped by the Regulator.
But the merchants stood manfully by
the new boats and starved the Baker
out. Now the company has adopted the
infamous principle of charging through
rates from Portland to The Dalles and
points West of here on all freights
consigned to the new line at
Portland from San Francisco or
eastern points or shipped on the
peoples boat to The Dalles, for
reshipment to towns east, by the Union
Pacific line. George Smith, a prominent
merchant of Arlington, shipped a car
AOoo VI GNAb AiOAh Vi W 1Ac DdllGS
by the peoples boats. The salt was
transferred to the cars and shipped to
its destination, but the company de-
manded the full rates from Portland
$24.90 extra. Fortunately they tackled
the wrong man when they tackled George
Smith, and the company backed down.
The result is, Smith got his back up and
now he VOWS he will ship every pound
of freight he can by the Northern Pa
cific. A car load of sugar consigned to
Mcfarland and French, Portland, y
care of the Oregon transfer company and
shipped by the peoples boats to The
Dalles was charged through rates all the
way, making difference of $40 on the
shipment. Through rates to Heppner
have also been charged on goods similarly
shipped to Henry Blackman and Gilman
Bisby. Surely there is sufficient JUS
tice yet left in American courts of law to
stop this damRable imposition and the
