WORST IN TWENTY YEARS
Floods in Oregon are Doing Much
Damage-24 Hours OF Steady
Rain at Portland.
PORTLAND, Ore, Feb. IA

PORTLAND, Ore, Feb. IA
rise of several degrees in tempera-
ture following an average snowfall
of two or three inches in the Villa
mette valley and perhaps as many
feet in the foothills, has caused flood
conditions in all streams in the Will
lamette water shed. On Monday
night the big Santian left it's banks at
jefferson, flooded the lowlands and
carried out the telegraph wires. A
continuation of the present warm
rains FOR another g hours, it is fear
ed, will cause a decided February
food similar to that of 1890, when
the water entered the streets of Port
land and the current threatened to
carry out bridges and docks. The
Oregon Railway e Navigation com
pany's line has been blocked since
Saturday By snowslides. The Port
land and The Dalles southern road
got a train through Monday night,
but floods threaten to wash out their
line between here and Salem TO-DAY
Rail communication is reported from
here to the Sound. Railroad officials
pronounce the conditions the worst
in 20 years.

CUT RATES ON MAIL
Burlington Road AstOnishes the Rail-
road World by Offering to Car
ry Mails Cheaper.

CHICAGO, Feb. THE Inter-
Ocean today says:
In order to prevent the transcon-
to the Rock Island system the Bur-
iington railroad has notified the post
Office department that it will cut its
rates for this service about per
cent, equal to about $4,000 per an
mum. The Burlington's proposition
caused amazement in railway circles
yesterday in view of the bills that
have been introduced in congress to
lessen the pay to railroads for ne
service.

DEFICIT UNNECESSARY
II Postage Was Paid On All Govern
ment Mail There Would BE no
Shortage in Department

WASHINGTON, Feb. IF the
postofice department were given Gre
dit for all the service it renders the
government the deficit in postal re-
ceipts would be practically eliminat-
ed, according to the report of the
house committee on pOstoffices and
post roads on the postofTic appropri-
alton bill, which was. submitted to
the house today.
The government departments and
other government officers in Wash
ington reported that for the six
months period ended December 81,
1906, the postage upon matter they
sent through the mails would have
aggregated S2,2S5,427. The commit
tee estimates that it is fair to assume
that IS, 100000 worth OF mail is car
ried for the government annually
without credit to the postal DEPART
ment. The deficit in the department
for the fiscal year 1906 was S10,-
mates that this would be entirely
covered if it were possible to COM
pute the amount of mail franked by
federal officials in all parts of the
country, in addition to the amount
of free mail going out of other
offices.
