the standard or nine months ticket and
the Midwinter Fair or excursion ticket.
The rate for the first named is $50 and for

or by coming directly through to that point
he may linger along between the line and
San Francisco for eight months and
twenty-five days if be wants to. There is
no transit limit on this ticket going back.

San Franclsco) the visitor has practically
fifteen days in which to reach the Califor-

pleases in the meantime.

but must be used after the passenger

true Of ali tickets sold by way of Portland.

General Freight Agent Smurr of the South
ern Pacific las received letter from Agent
Wildman of Auburn giving the result Of a
shipment of five boxes of oranges to this
city few days ago. The fruit was shipped
by Charles Keena of that place 10 T. M

This is men toned as an indication OF the
advantages which that section of the State
possesses in the development of this par.
ticular industry. A carload of the fruit
which could have been sold just as readily
as the five boxes-would have netted, al
the same price, The neat profit of S1714.
The agent of the North German LLOYD
Steamship Com pany is the third person to
be assessed fine for violation of the City

The stockholders of the North American
Navigation Company at meeting on
Monday adopted the following resolution
Resolved, That 1t is the sense of this meeting
that the North American Navigation Company
shall be held 10 the hands Of and under the
control of the merchants of this city and the
producers of this State. and that it shall be
maintained as a permanent line, and to thai
end we pledge ourselves to use our best efforts
10 secure the necessary support, financial and
otherwise, TO keep IL In permanent operation
that the subscribers and stockholders of the
navigation company are requested to renew
their subscriptions in the amount of the pre-
gious subscriptions.
= Over 100 shareholders out of a total oi
about $50 were present, and took a lively
interest in the proceedings.
The con DtlDuance of the North American
Navigation Company line makes necessary
the raising If guarantee fund. It is pro-
posed to subscribe 100000. That is the
amount Of the or ginai subscription which
has insured the operation of the line tC
date. Some subscriptions have already
been renewed. The navigation line is the
outgrowth of the Traffir Association OF
California, which association raised the
first stock subscriptions. Subscription
lists will be at once circulated.
In the last annual report of the execu-
tive committee of the Traffic Association
the following occurred, which represents
what the Southern Pacific Company's Off
Gals and others have been up to for the
purpose of discouraging such action as
was takeD By the meeting:
The old companies and their cO-wOrkers
have been quite active for some little time iD
depioriDg the i'll effect OF the manner in which
the Tratfic Association have conducted their
affairs, claiming that il brings the loss of great
sums OF money TO the manufacturer as a result
OF this war which they are waging IN order TO
teachth!s community better than to engage in
any future fort for commercial Independence.
1t rs also asserted by them that the jObber re-
ceives no special benefit for the same reason.
and transportation interests especially suffer
by re son of these needless sacrifices And
while the North American Navigation Com
pany's losses are only about one to thirty
hVe or forty, they lay stress upon the fact that
their capital is very small and very difficult
TO renew and will soon be driven out of ex-
lstence, and OF course when that time comes
they Will soon get all their losses back again.
Members of the Traffic Association are
highly pleased with the actinn taken at the
