RULED AGAINST
RAILROADS
(By Associated Press.

Washington, May 21.-A decision
was handed down today by the Inter-
state commerce commission in what
has come to be known as the Port
land gateway case in which the con-
tention of the travelling public for
through rates and joint rates from
eastern points via Portland, Oregon,
is sustained. The railroads which
were defendants in the proceedings
are required by order of the COM
mission to establish before July /,
1909, through routes and joint rates
via Portland and to maintain them
for at least two years.
BY the terms of the decision, which
is highly important to the travelling
public, western and northwestern
roads are ordered to join in the sale
of through passenger tickets be-
tween Seattle and other points in the
Pacific northwest and eastern iesti-
nations via Portland, Oregon, and
to accord through facilities like the
checking of baggage over this route.

DIED.

HOLT-At Grants Pass, Saturday,
October 8, 1909, Lucy S. Holt,
wife of Sidney Holt, aged 62 years,
2 months and 20 days.
The deceased, whose maiden
name was Lucy Green, was born at
Fredonia, n Y, July 10, 1S47, and
was married to Sidney Holt, October
8, 1868. She was the mother of nine
children, five surviving her. They are
F. NJ. Holt, of Elmwood, Kan; H.
H. Holt, Of Tangier, Okla; Lulu

blind husband who also survives her
Last January Mrs. Holt was stricken
with paralysis and since that time
has been a helpless invalid until
death released her from her suffer-
ing early Saturday morning. She
was a charter member of the home
department of the Baptist Sunday
school and was a noble woman,
loving wife and mother and highly
esteemed by all who knew her. For
40 years she was true and unselfish
wife and mother, and since her hus-
band was stricken with blindness
several years ago, she has faithfully
cared for him and her death, on their
46th wedding anniversary, was a
sad blow to him. Funeral services
were conducted at the residence by
Rev. F. G. Lovett, of the Baptist
church, with interment at /. o. o. F.
cemetery Sunday afternoon.

The Synod of Oregon.

The synod of Oregon and the
presbytery of Southern Oregon both
met last week in the city of Newberg.
There was large attendance and the
reports from the different fields
were most inspiring.
The rapid growth Of Portland has
laid heavy burden upon the Pres
byterian church in that city, but the
members are meeting it splendldly.
They have taken up the work of sup
porting all the home mission
churches within their bounds. and
this has necessitated an increase Of
fully 200 per cent in their offerings
for that cause. All obligations were
met and much new work taken up.
Every church in the presbytery has
been regularly supplied and all are
in fine condition
Eastern Oregon churches are show
ing the effects of the large immigra.
tion that has resulted from the irr!-
cation projects of that section. 4
church reports are any safe guide
Oregon is having a boom and the
class coming in is exceptionally de-
sirable
The members of synod were roy
ely entertained by the citizens OF
Newberg and delighted with the
clean, progressive town. AT the
closing one of the members asked
that privilege might be given him to
say word. 1t was granted and this
was the word: I'VE have been here
three days, and in that time we have
rot heard an oath or an indecent
word, nor have we seen a drunken
nan; and this is a dry town"
Newberg has fine stores, much
finer postoffice than Grants Pass,
and lot of fine, broad cement side
walks. The town has never had
salocn so do not know wha. would
be the effect of losing them.
Bethany church was represented
at Newberg by It's pastor, Rev. Root
Mclean, and by one elder, A. u
Barnard.

james Neeley.

1t Is very common, and in meas
ure perfectly right, to eulogize the
dead The subject of this eulogy,
however, has earned all that can be
said in his favor. To write his BIZ
ography would be TO write the his
tory of Josephine county.
If our deceased brother were alive
today he would, no doubt, object to
much of what feel constrained to
say. but there are some lessons in
the everyday lives OF our fellowmen
that are too valuable to be lost.
James Neeley was man who al
ways did right Simply for the sake
of right, He was born in Missouri
in 1897. He came to Oregon in 1854
and to Josephine county about two
years later He served in the Rogue
River Indian War, and was of the
party that was besieged by a force
of Indians at Galice. During his
eventful life he has filled many
places of trust and always met the
demands OF the occasion.
Brother Neeley was associated with
the writer of this obituary In the or
ganization of the first Christian
church ever organized In Grants Pass
and more active and consecrated
worker would be hard to find. On
January s, 1888, little band of IA
met and formed the nucleus of what
has since been known as the Chris
tian church In Grants Pass. William
Pollock and Stephen Jewell were its
elders, and James Neeley and ]. G.
Dotson were It's deacons, Our broth
er leaves one son and one daughter,
Cleave Neeley and Mrs, John Coch-
rane. Funeral services were held
In the Baptist chapel at Merlin, and
attended by a large concourse of
friends. The remains were buried
In the cemetery at Pleasant Valley.
