FREIGHT RATES
INTERSTATE CONINiIS-
SION MEETS IN PORTLAND
Spokane Case viii BE Thoroughly
Threshed Over In Portland Next
Weck-Water Transportation Has
Much to Do With Making Trans
continental Rates.

Once more the freight rate ques-
ton as it effects Pendleton will be
fought out by the interstate COM
merce commission at Portland. The
Oregon Daily Journal says;
Next Monday the interstate COM
merce commission will hold a ses-
sion in Portland to take further evil
dence in the Spokane rate case. The
Portland hearing is regarded as per-
haps the most vitality important from
the standpoint of the seaport ship
per, and the evidence given here on
the point of water competition will
serve as a basis for the entire con-
tention of the seabord cities that the
present system of transcontinental
ratemaking should be maintained.
The evidence to be given in Port
land is expected to show beyond any
question of doubt that water trans
portation governs in the rail haul
between the Atlantic and Pacific
seabords, and also that the freight
rates from seaboard to seaboard must
be made entirely independent of the
rates to intermediate and inland
points that have no water competi-
ton. Data obtainable in Portland
point and the Atlantic ports is re-
vince any commission in existence
that water competition between this
point and the Atlantic ports is a
ality, and that it absolutely governs
the ratemaking for transcontinental
railroads. even though the Panama
canal is not yet reality.

GIRL BABY'S
AWFUL ECZEMA
Sight Of Eye Destroyed Disease
Tried Five Doctors but Grew

Parents Discouraged, Until
They Tried Cuticura Remedies
IN ONE WEEK ALL

"Our little girl, one year and half
what the doctor said it was. We called
in the family doctor and he gave some
tablets and said she would be all right
in few days. The eczema grew worse
and we called in doctor No. 2. He
said she was teething, as soon as the
teeth were through she would be all
right. But she still grew worse. Doc
tor No. 3 said it was eczema. By this
time she was nothing but a yellow,
greenish sore. Well, he said he could
help her, so we let him try it about
a week. One morning we discovered
a little yellow pimple on one Of her
No. 3. He came over and looked her
over and said that he could not do any
thing more for her, that we had better
take her to some eye specialist, since it
was an ulcer. So we went to Oswego
to doctor No. 4, and he said the eye
sight was gone, but that he could help it.
We thought we would try doctor No. 8.
Well, that proved the same, only he
charged $40 more than doctor No. A.
We were nearly discouraged. l saw
one Of the Cuticura advertisements in
the paper and thought we would try
the Cuticura Treatment, so went and
purchased n seJ OF Cuulcura ItefneuleS,
which cost me 81, and in three days

eight months, showed great improve

NORWAY.

The proprietors OF the great fish
canneries in Stavanger have resolved
to petition the government to put an
export duty on sprats Ca kind Of nsh
known as sardines when canned) put
up In packages weighing over seven
pounds. An export duty Of 1910 per
hektoliter, or a little over ten cents a
gallon, is suggested. Most Of the
sprats exported in bulk go to Sweden,
and the whole export is supposed to
be about 10000 barrels year The
petitioners state that the demand for
sardines grows so fast that it will not
be possible to obtain enough raw ma
terials unless the Norwegian canneries
are permitted to use all the sprats
caught along the coast Of Norway.
The petitioners emphasize the fact
that the 10000 barrels Of sprats would
increase In value about 100000 by be-
