Farmers, Shippers and Merchants In

Held Next Wednesday.

Members of the transportation and
freight committee of the Walla Walla
Commercial club held meeting last
night and made arrangements to re-
hceive the members of the railway COM
mission when they come to Walla
Walla next Wednesday. 1t was de-
cided to invite all the shippers, farm
ers and other persons who are inter-
ested in the subject of freight rates to
views, and state their complaints and
wants in order that the commission
can be fully advised as to the condi-
tons existing in Walla Walla county.
The principal matter to be taken up
will be that of the alleged discrimina-
| ton against Walla Walla relative to
distributing point rates on freight from
the east.
"Walla Walla is the metropolis and
the natural distributing point for
Southeastern Washington" said one
of the members of the committee this
morning, land we should have equally
as good freight rates as those given by
the railroads to Spokane. Under the
present conditions the railroad COM
panies charge Walla Walla merchants
the through rate from eastern points
70 tho 600 onI tbpn fhav arc forced
to pay the local rate from Portland,
Seattle and Tacoma back to Walla
Walla On the other hand Spokane is
given terminal rates which enables it's
business men to sell goods to the
merchants in the Inland Empire at
a much lower rate than is made pos
sible for Walla Walla merchants. This
is a discrimination and this fact will
be pointed out to the members Of the
commission as strongly as possible.
The committee will have on hand any
amount Of facts and figures to submit
make an effort to give them all the
necessary information possible to en-
able them to reach a definite under
standing Of the conditions prevailing
in this section of the country. A num-
Der of other matters may also be taken
up, but that will not be decided upon
until early next week.
1T is desired by the committee that
all the farmers, shippers and merch-
ants be present at the conference and
make known their wants and needs
