TREEwATER ELECTION CASE.

Salem, April 23.-(Special. )--In
the State of Oregon, plaintiff and re-
spOndent, against James McElrath,
defendant and appellant, an appeal
from t'matilla county, VIM. Smith,
judge the judgment of the lower
court was today affirmed I'm an opin-
ion by Chief Justice Bean.
The question on appeal was wheth-
cr orders for holding elections ac-
cording TO petitions presented under
the local option law, may be made by
the county court presided over by the
county Judge alone, or whether they
must be made by the county Judge
and commissioners sitting as a court
for the transaction of county busi-
ness.
1t Is the first time the question has
hecn presented for a decision. The
supreme court holds that the order Of
the county court In the case at bar
was valid, although made while the
court was presided over by the coun-
ty Judge alone.
This case was tried before Judge
William Smith in Baker county, for
the reason that Judge Bean of this
district, was county Judge at the time
the order for the local option election
in Freewater was made.

$3.50 to s400 each In Seattle. While
Seattle is full of automobiles. vet the
demand for driving horses is better

Is not invading the horse market to
any extent. The buyers expect to re-
turn to the city about May to attend
the horse show which will be held
here at that time. The stock are now
at the Alta House feed yards, where
they have been held for several days.
Good Horse Sale Saturday.
One of the best horse sales ever
held In this city took place on Satur-
day afternoon, when ]. w. Tulloch
and sons, the well known Juniper
farmers, sold "a head of work horses
at prices which averaged s142.50 each
FOR the entire number. The horses
were purchased by various parties
through the county and It was an ex-
cellent lot of animals.
The 5000 team of mules was offer

According to the assessment rolls of
Umatilla county, 20 land owners now
have deeds to 1S1,720 acres out of
100000 acres of decided land in the
county. It is believed by Assessor
Strain that 100 men own half of the
decided land in the county, although
he has not completed statistics on this
point.
Editor E. Hofer of the Salem Jour-
nal, has just requested a list of the
20 largest land owners in every coun-
ty in the state, and Assessor C. P.
Strain has completed the list from this
county which goes to show the extent
of land monopoly here.
The object of the Salem editor in
securing such lists is to complete fig
ures showing the extent of land mo-
nopoly in the state Of Oregon in hopes
of securing some remedial legislation
in the future, either through the leg
islature or the initiative law.
While the holdings of range land in
this county are large in comparison
with those Of other counties, yet the
holdings of wheat and irrigated land
are even greater in proportion than
the range holdings.
The list of 20 largest individual and
corporate land holders in Umatilla
county is as follows:

LUMBER RATES
IN THE SOUTH
THE ISSUE INTRODUCES A
MUCH BROADER QUESTION
The Scope and Power of the Inter-
state Commerce Commission Is At
Stake-Supreme Court VIII Pass
Upon an Appeal by the Railroads
From Decision by the Commits
sion.

Washington, April 23.-One of the
most important cases with which the
United States supreme court has had
to deal in long time came up for
argument before that tribunal to-
day. The case is one in which several
of the prominent southern railroads ;
are aligned against the Interstate
Commerce commission. The direct
question at issue is the right of the
railroad companies to advance the
freight rate on lumber.
But there is a far broader ques-
ton involved than this direct issue Of
lumber rates. This IS the scope and
power OF the Interstate Commerce
commission.
The case has been pending since
April, 1908, when the Central yell
low Pine association, composed of
manufacturers of that product in the
territory east of the Mississippi river
and west of Georgia, was formed for
the purpose of fighting an advance
In freight rates. They alleged that
the advance was unreasonable in IT.
self and the product of u conspiracy
among all the carriers of yellow pine
in the south. The matter was taken
before the Interstate Commerce COM
mission. About the same time a SIM
liar action was begun by the Georgia
association against the rail-
roads In that territory. In February.
1905, the commission decreed that
the advance was unreasonable and
the railroads We're ordered to desist
from murther demanding of It.
But the railroads were not satis-
fled. They gave a supercedeas bond
OF 100000 to repay shippers for
an excess OF charges In the event the
decree stood, and then appealed their
case to the United States circuit
court OF appeals at New Orleans.
This court upheld the decree of the
commission. The railroad then took
an appeal to the United States su-
preme court.
should the decisions of the lower
courts stand unshaken, the ruling of
the Interstate Commerce commission
VIII be justified, and the right and
power of that body will claim anoth-
er precedent At the same time the
lumber shippers Of the south will
nave won a rate on shipments which
In a years aggregate business will
mean saving computed to be more
than s1,000,O00.

Washington, April 23.--The Am
erican Asphalt association has car
ried to the interstate commerce
commission the fight it has long been
making on the Barber Asphalt COM
pany and complained today against
the Utah Railway company running
from Ogden, Utah, to Montana and
Colorado, alleging the board is con-
trolled by the Barber company,
which in turn is controlled by the
general asphalt company. The Am
erican alleges discrimination in haul
