Ralxer CITY is Losing Trade.

That Baker City is losing a large
volume of its legitimate trade on ac-
count of the condition of the roads
leading into this city is fact that is
growing more apparent every day to
the careful observer
William Morris and Thomas j. sud
dock, farmers from the Haines coun-
try. we're in Baker City today and
spoke very strongly on this subject
They say that yesterday when they
were in Haines they saw over 200
teams loaded with grain standing in
line in that village waiting to be un-
loaded. Upon being asked why Ba-
ker City did not get some of this inn
mense valley trade the ranchers said
that Baker City did not offer enough
inducements for them to travel here;
the roads were in very poor condition
and a heavy load of grain could not by
any possibility be hauled here until
something had been done. Mr.. Moore
remarked that a few loads of gram
had been brought here but as no mar
ket could be found for it, it was hauled
away for shipment elsewhere.-Baker
