calling attention to this, old circular Is
but another phase of the long squabble
that came up when the Great Northern
first made its present colonist rate to the
Pacific coast. The rate for colonist bust
ness made shortly afterward by the three
transcontinental lines from Chicago to
Seattle or Portland was $3.50, which, with
the $11 local from Portland to San Fran
cisco, made the through fare So below the
San Francisco tariff
The only result of such an order by The
Southern Pacific viii be to force this
class of travel to accept the through rate
to Puget sound or Portland, and rebuy
local to destination instead of buying
BY local officials the matter is not
treated seriously, nor can any be found
of the belief that the Southern Pacific
Will be able to, in any manner whatsoever,
force up the present tourist rate over the
transcontinentalsl lines to Washington or
other coast points.
The whole trouble, according to we'll in
formed passenger men, is that thousands
OF farmers from the Eastern states are
now coming to the Pacific coast in search
OF homes. The Southern Pacific and its
ally, the Santa Fe, are receiving but a
very small percentage of the business, for
! the simple reason that, after thorough
examination. the Eastern farmer has
! rich land in the North Pacific states than
IN California. where a greater proportion
or the agricultural ,landsc have already
been taken UP.
Another view of the matter is that the
southern Pacific brings the matter up

this petition for alimony:
ITO Heraclides, Priest, Chief of Justice

Other Courts, From Syria, Daughter of
Theron: I married Sarapion, bringing
him by cession a dowry amount
ing to 200 drachmas Of silver. AS he
had no means Of his own at all, I re-
ceived him into my parents house, and /
for my part, conducted myself blameless-
ly in all respects. But Sarapion, having
squandered my dowry as he pleased, was
constantly ill-treating me and insulting
me and using violence toward me, and.
having reduced me to poverty, he finally
deserted me, leaving me in destitute
condition. Therefore I beg you that he
may be compelled perforce to pay back
my dowry, with an addition of half its
amount. This petition is without preju-
dice to the other claims that I have upon
him.

Three Northern Lines Standing To-

The transcontinental rate question as
viewed on the Pacific Northwest coast Is
outlined In the Seattle Post-Intelligencer
and shows that the railroad men repre-
senting the transcontinental lines opposed
to the Southern Pacific, propose to stand
together. One interesting phase Of the
situation is the large estimate Of the
volume of homeseekers' traffic which is
now on. The Post-Intelligencer says:
The much-taI1ed about order served
upon the Great Northern, Northern Pa
ctfc and Canadian Pacific RAILWAYS by
the Southern Pacific refusing to accent
San Francisco colonist business by va.v of
Portland, was delivered prior to Sept. /
