stiff fight against Captain Bakers

That the state railroad commission
Of oregon has no connection with F.
| w. Gaines. who under contract with
| several farmers has endeavored to
! secure reduction of the grain rates
in force in this section for one-half
the sum saved the first year by such
a reduction, was made. evident in the
grain rate hearing at the Commercial
| association rooms yesterday. II was
also made evident that the commits
s!on's action in hearing the matter
yesterday was not effected by Mr..
Gaines. with whom the commission
repudated any connection whatso-
ever.
1t was brought out during the hear
ing that Gaines had made represen-
effect a saving in the rates on the
O. r. & n, for transporting wheat TO
Portland and contracted to secure
such a reduction for one-half the
first years saving If he was success
full. The impression was given out
that the man represented he had
some connection with the commits
sion and in the grilling given the
witness when Gaines was put on the
stand yesterday afternoon the COM
mission left it evident that II had
nothing but condemnation for the
methods used. II was also shown
that the present hearing was in no
way connected with any act of Mr..
Gaines. but was taken up by the
commission upon its own instance.
Gaines Methods Condemned.
\ contingent fee, such as was ar
ranged by Gaines, was roundly con-
demned during the course of the
hearing, and although the commission
had no condemnation for an organiza-
tion of the farmers to secure legal as
sistance in a fight for better rates its
disgust with the Gaines plan was very
plain.
Gaines as a witness was thorough /
ly posted upon many features of the
rate problem, and declared that the |
present charges Of the company were
40 per cent i'm excess of what was
needed to pay all expenses and a re-
turn of per cent on the investment. |
c. A. Barrett of Athena was also |
a witness yesterday before the com
and testified to farming con-
1itlons and farm values in tho coun-
ty.
The evidence taken by the commits
sion in this city will be used by it to
base its final opinion after hearings
at several other points along the line
of the railroad are held. Next week
the commission will hold another |
hearing at Heppner, and later one
will be held at The Dalles.

been more taxing to the players than
was the strenuous practice which the
first team was put through last eve
ming in preparation for the Pendleton
game next Saturday afternoon.
Coaches Wall and Nicholson, assisted
BY Ralph Reynolds and Ben Grout
gave the regulars such a lesson as
will stand them well in hand when
the heavy players from the Wheat
Town face them on the local gridiron
Saturday. From $3.50 until $50 the
coaches labored strenuously with in
tricate plays. and when darkness
drove the players to the dressing room
the trainers felt they had done much
good to the team. 1t is such train
ing that gives the proper endurance,
and though some OF the new men in
the squad cannot as yet solve the rea-
son why practice should be so stiff,
they will know the reason when the
heavy beeves of the Pendleton aggre-
CATION has been pounding away at the
little line of local high school boys
next Saturday for a period of a half
hour or more.
No game of the season will attract T.

Four miles of dirt road, built by
tearing up the surface and getting
down to the subsoil, will be built in

have also agreed to initiate similar
movements in their localities to find

satisfactory method Of building dirt
roads in the county
The road to be built by Messrs.
Nelson and Hagen will begin at the
top Of the Nelson grade in Despair
gulch. The county court yesterday
agreed with the enthusiasts to fur
nish the grades necessary for the
work. The farmers will tear off the
soil down to grade, and the county
then will do the necessary rolling
Careful record will be kept Of the
