and the neighbors' prediction - con-

husband brought home a bottle of DR..
Kings New Discovery, which in my
case proved to be the only real cough

Carnegie. who is in Washington for
a. few days. today expressed the FOL
lowing opinion on the railroad situa-
ton:
81 absolutely endorse the presidents
attitude in regard to the railroads He
is the best friend they have and they
ought to realize it. The railroads had
better stand with him. If they do not
accept his moderate measures they
may be confronted by a man in the
White House who will approach the
question of the railways from an en-
tirely different standpoint. 1 regard
the presidents influence as to the
railways as wholesome and conserva-
tive"
Mr.. Carnegie lunched with the pres
ident this afternoon. Others present
were Vice President Fairbanks, Secre-
tary Cortelyou, Assistant Secretary of
State Bacon and Robert S. McCor-
mick, former ambassador to France.

more. During your college days the
ideals OF your life are formed, but it
will take work on your part to achieve
them. Your four years of college life,
after all, is but mold which turns
you out in shape to go through the
world honest, honorable men and
women, with opportunities for a world
of good if you are so disposed.
There never has been a time in
the history Of our country when the
demand was as great for jurists and

the problems of the. concentration of
wealth as at the present. We need
jurists who can see new paths and di-
rect the ship of state out of the tan

there is demand for the democracy

religion of the Puritans. They have

ton they can not live, as each is de-
pendent upon the other for its exist

FARMERS ASK FOR
REDUCED GRAIN RATE

HEPPNER, Or, May pa petition
was circulated in Heppner the past
week which will be sent to the Oregon
Railroad commission asking for a re-
duction or a readjustment of rates.
Morrow county farmers feel that they
have been imposed upon by the freight
charge from Heppner to Portland on
wheat, and are taking this means to
try and relieve the situation. AS it
now is, Heppner pays more freight on
the transportation of wheat than many
other points that have a great deal
longer haul. The charge from Hepp-
ner TO Portland is IS cents per hum
bred, with a distance of 1913 miles :;
from Pendleton to Portland, 231 miles,
it is Is ga cents; from Wallula, PA
miles, and Irrigon, $50 miles, the rate
is Is cents.
The matter of the extension" of the
run of the Biggs local to Heppner is to
be taken up by the Commercial club,
and ii is hoped that this accommodate
ton will be granted at the hands OF
the o. r. & n. The present service of
the Heppner branch is considered mad
equate. A mixed train handles the
business. causing many delays and
slow time.
