II the railroad commission OF Ore

says q Washington dispatch. 1t has
been the practice OF roads TO select
an efficient and influential attorney
In each county along their lines who
could be relied upon to attend to the
company's interests, and while not
placing these attorneys on salary to
give annual passes. as though they
were employed by the road.
Often unless called on to serve In q
particular suit. no money has passed
from the company to the attorney
yet they are carried on the free
transportation list of the road. and
the annual pass is practically all the
compensation received. It being re-
garded as sufficient, The federal
commission has looked into this sit.
uation with some care and has ruled
that local attorneys OF railroads can
not. under the existing law. use pass
es on Interstate journeys.
1t also rules that all attorneys who
receive passes must be In the employ
OF the company as their chief occu'
patton, not as a mere side issue n
their law practice
l. The federal commission realize.
that this ruling will cut off many 20
called railroad attorneys who nov
travel on free transportation, som,
belonging to the legislature, other,
going going to the state capitals t
lobby. and still others coming t
Washington for the same purpose
and as alleged regular attorneys O

over connecting lines of their com
panies.
If the Oregon commission. as in tn.
past, adopts the policy of following
when possible the federal commits

REDUCE COAL RATES.
Interstate Commerce Commission
Lowers Rate on U. p.


The Interstate Commerce commits
sion yesterday iuade a ruling reduce
ing the freight rate on coal from
Hanna and Rock Springs to Nebraska
points one dollar a ton, says the
Cheyenne Tribune. The average re-
ductIon is from $3.50 to $3.50.
Cheyenne dealers say that the re-
duction is not likely to have any ef-
feet on the price Of coal In Cheyenne
They say that the rate from Hanna
is $3.50 per ton and from Rock
Springs $3.50. This rate is a. reduc-
ton of about 20 cents per ton from
the rate in effect year ago, and
they believe that the interstate dol
lar rate is merely a reduction in pro-
portion to the rate in Wyoming.
Since the rate went down, the price
of coal at the mine has gone up 50
that the consumer in this city is pay
ing about the same price as hereto
fore,
The various coal dealers met today
and after a conference of some length
decided that hereafter coaf must be
pai for when delivered. The ar
raregement was agreed to on account
of the small margin on some grades
of coal, which is wiped out by few
-'btld debts" and the nature OF the
product makes it impossible to recoV'
er any of the goods sold.
