WANT MEAT, HIDE AND TAIL
Is the Way the Recent increase in Fruit Rates
Appears to Loca! Fruit Dealers

- WS way WS NSCSnt UNCTSASe IN Irust Nates
Appears to Local Fruit Dealers
Just about the maddest business man
ever seen in Lewiston or any other COM
inercial center was w. A. White, senior
member Of White Bros, commission
merchants, Tuesday afternoon, when
consignment of fruit reached Lewiston
from down the river on the O. X. & N.
boat. The fruit was all right and White
had contracts that would have required
three times the amount to fill. He also
had the gold wherewith to pay the trans
portation company for it's services. But
the freight rate on the fruit had been in
creased to such 4 point as to knock of
all Whites profits, and leave a deep hole
i'll his surplus cash besides. MIR. White
rendered the company the rate he had
been paying about all the "traffic would
bear" The company refused the tender
and the fruit was left on its hands.
What disturbed Whites usual tranquil
mind was the arbitrary increase without
notice of the rate and the consequent dis
appointment of his customers.
The effect of such rate will be to drive
Mr.. White out of business OH the lower
river or COMPEL him to pay the rate. and
stand longer haul and get into market
some later than under his present ar
rangements. To bring the fruit to Lewis,
ton at the present rate is prohibitory
he declares.
The matter will be carried into the
courts, it is said, and by the time it is
adjudicated the fruit season will have
ended.
This firm of White Brothers by careful
management and application Of honor
| able business methods have established a
trade in half dozen states. 1t is to be
hoped that they will find relief and be
able to supply their customers as in the
past. Their shipments have been made
in refrigerators over the Northern Pacific
while most Of the huit came by boat
from down the river. 1t is thought the
rate was put up to secure all the trade
for the O. X. & N. "The company.
general freight AGENT said Mr.. White
"told me he would make the rate Fl il
necessary to compel me to ship by hi.
line"
| ADJUSTMENT MADE.
Yesterday the Commercial Club tool
up the matter with the o. R. & N of
fcials at Portland with the result that a,
agreement was reached to this effect
The old rate will Ike restored on all loca
shipments to Lewiston. except on car
load shipments to eastern points whicl
are to be sent over the O. X. & N. in tn

ENTERTAlNME NTS.
Mr.. A. w. Hawks.

For an hour and half Friday evening,
Mr.. A. w. Hawks entertained a large
audience at the Opera House, with his
lecture, Sunshine and Shadows" Mr..
Hawks is very appropriately called the
Laughing Philosopher" he might also
be termed the Apostle of Sunshine, y
as his chief purpose seems to be TO dis
pei shadows from the hearts OF his
hearers and fill them with glorious rays
of sunshine and hope; his heart over
flows with kindness and happiness, and
his geniality is contagious; he laughs,
and his audience laughs with him.
And what higher calling can man
have than that of making others happy?
What better doctrine than that of love
for God and all misunderstanding, in
stead of shadows-happiness, in place of
sorrows?
Mr.. Hawks keeps an inexhaustible
stock of fun on hand, and he has a
happy way of dispensing it lie keeps
his hearers convulsed with laughter, and
his good h1mor pervaded the entire
audience. Several times he dropped
into pathetic strain, but no sooner did
his hearers feel the tears of sympathy
yelling in their eyes than they were
laughing again over joke or the recital
of some humorous incident. But
through it all one could not help seeing
the lesson the speaker sought to impress
to love and help one another ana be
happy, no matter hat our surroundings
may be.
1t is safe to say that every person who
hna a Mr 10 MI hau al N a
and charity in his or her heart to day
Such entertainments as these not only
entertain and instruct, but make us
better men and women, and lift US to q

$4,000 Against Both Defendants

Special to the Herald.

DpCNldl W the lItlnlus
NASHVILLE, May 2.-The jury in the
case of Gen. John G. Underwood against
S. A. Cunningham, editor of the Con
lederate Veteran, and the Methodist
Publishing House, which printed the
Veteran, brought in a verdict in the
United States Circuit Court to-day,
awarding $751; 900 damages against both
defendants jointly, and $4,000 punitive
damages against Cunningham, The
suit was for $4,000, brought on account
of an article in reference to Underwood,
published in the Confederate Veteran.
The case went to the jury at $3.50
O'Clock yesterday afternoon. The coun-
sci argued the case yesterday morn
ing, two hours being allowed each side.
The jury was charged at noon. Judge
Evans went into the case at some
length, pointing out what he considered
libelous and what not. He held that
the publishing house was just as guilty
of libel, if there was libel, as Mr.. Cum
ningham, who wrote the article, and
that the jury could not separate them
when it came to the question of liability
He concluded his charge by overruling
requests of counsel for the defense fol
additional instructions, and stating that
under his instructions and the law and
evidence the jury could return no yer
dict but for the plaintiff.
