The above from Major Thomas was
partially 'pied" last week and by
oversight the eye of the proofreader
failed to see it before it appeared in
the paper, hence it is reproduced this
week iu jnstice to Mr.. Thomas. He
had many friends that would have
stood by him Loyalty, had he stayed
in the race. Neither by nature nor
by training is he adapted to latter
day politics and he has no doubt act
ed the part of wisdom in selecting a
field more snited to his tastes and in
keeping with that kindness OF heart
and generosity of nature which has
given him a wide circle Of friends.

phraseology yesterday in testifying before

sion, that common ownership of the Oregon
Railroad and Navigation Company, the
Union Pacific, the Oregon Short Line and
the Southern Pacific had destroyed COM
petition between the Union Pacific rail and
water lines and the Southern Pacific be-
tween Portland and the east.
Before the, ownership was merged the
Portland men testified. their business had
been extensively solicited by agents Of both
these lines and there was competition be-
tween the Oregon Railroad and Navigation
Company's water line to San Francisco
and the Southern Pacific railroad. At pres
ent, they declared, they were not solicited
to ship by any specific Hartman line.
Their testimony was corroborated by T.
w. McCusker, former traffic officer of the
Southern Pacific, afterward employed In a
similar capacity by the allied Hartman
lines. who testified that prior to the mer-
ger he was instructed to get all the bust
ness he could for the Southern Pacific, and
after the combination was formed he was
instructed to get certain business for the
Southern Pacific and to try to swing other
business to the Union Pacific.
