IMPORTANT RATE CASE
SOON TO BE DECIDED

corpoi alton turned over the three
miles Of road to the Mount Scott
line, which, in the course OF time
became a part OF the Portland Rail-
road company. In consideration of
this the company agreed to trans
found the entire line from Portland
to Lents into an electric line, and
TO charge a uniform rate OF fve
cents. This contract has since been
lived up to by each company into
whose hands the line has come. the
present one being the Portland Rail-
road company.
Griffith contended that the fare
under this contract had nothing TO
do with the fare charged from Port
land to Milwaukee. The regular fare
over the Milwaukee line is ten cents,
and the company, he declared Is not
discriminating when It gives lower
fare to the people Of Lents, because
this very low fare was made for q
due consideration, namely. the
uhree miles of road leading into
Lents.
IL was further argued that the
company had right to charge a
lower rate from Portland to Lents
because the traffic over this line is
more than twenty times as heavy as
the traffic over the Milwaukee line,
and that II is therefore much cheaper
to carry a passenger from Portland
TO Lents than from Portland to MI.
waukie. Besides this II was claimed
that the fares on the Lents line are
mostly for short rides, more than
90 per cent OF the passengers leaving
the cars within mile and a hall
outside the city limits. while on the
Milwaukee line more than so pei
cent OF the people go clear through
from Portland to Milwaukee.
Whichever way Judge Galowa,
decides. the case will go to the Su
preme court.

The decision of the Railroad COM
mission fixing the strsetcar fare from
Portland over the Port and Railway,
Light and Power company at sc to
Milwaukee and at 1Oc 20 Oak Grove.
Is once again before the circuit court.
The case was argued by the respec-
tive consul al yesterday afternoon
and evening and far into today's
session, and the case was taken un-
der advisement by Judge Galloway.
In presenting his case before
tive counsel all yesterday afternoon
Attorney Frank T. Griffith went into
lengthy argument to show that the
claim OF the people of Milwaukee and
Oak Grove that the Portland Rail-
road company was discriminating
unfairly against them was ground
le7s.
Disparity In fare or mileage, he
argued. was not the only ground up
on which discrimination could be
ha ed. but that the justice or injus-
tice of the discrimination depended
upon other circumstances, He then
proceeded to argue that the circum.
stances upon which the apparent dis.
elimination depended rendered that
discrimination a Just one.
The people of Milwaukee and OAK
Grove charge the Portland Railroad
company with npfair discrimination
because of the fact that the fare
from Portland to Lents, a distance oi
seven and one-half miles, Is five
cent, while the fare from Portland
to Milwaukee, distance OF six ant
one-balf miles, is ten cents. Grifitf
stated that the primary cause OF this
disparity was the "Lents contract.
In April. 1901, before the present
company took over the road. the
line to Lents was a steam road, tn,

owned by n nrivate corporation. Thi
