Portland to Colorado a piled only to
lumber sh pped in box cars, and not to
timbers such as are carried on fat ca, 9.
and which are not brought from the
South, whence comes the lumber which
enters into competition with Oregon

Southern lumber made corresponding
cut in their rate, but the last change
may enable the lumbermen to build up
a trade in timber with Utah and Col
orado.
