The Accent rate made by the Union
Pacific short time ago on lumber from
i VI udhu w OoloTuuo a. plleu only 10
lumber sh pped in box cars, and not to
timbers such as are carried on flat cars,
and which are not brought from the
South, whence comes the lumber which
enters into competition with Oregon
lumber. The company has now made
another change, and gives 40 cent rate
on timber which can be carried on fat
car, but the old rate will remain in force
on all timbers long enough to require
two cars to load them on. The first
change did not benefit lumbermen here
to any extent, as the roads carrying
Southern lumber made corresponding
cut in their rate, but the last change
may enable the lumbermen to build up,
trade in timber with Utah and Col
orado. !,
