While part of the parade given
Tuesday evening was undoubtedly
very satisfactory and judging by the
comments it undoubtedly pleased the
majority of the people, the writer re-
grets the accident that happened to
the airship (aeroplane). But these
unforeseen and seemingly almost i'm
possible accidents will happen once
in a while, but the accident did not
happen through carelessness, and
must have happened by a misunder-
standing of the orders Of some one
that was assisting.

the aeroplane from operating as
was intended whereby the airship
would have made flight, and at the
end Of its course would have settled
directly in the center of the street at
the height where the accident hap
pened. where the guard ropes were
placed to assist in keeping the aero
plane in proper position during its
travel As the public probably OBJ
served the aeroplane took a tumble
downward, and the guard ropes which
were to assist in its keeping Its
course, was the only support that held
the airship in position, as at the time

The program, if carried out in full

GRAIN RATES

New Rates VIII Not BE Effective
Until November 1 I'm Order to Give
o. II. & n. 80 Days to Publish Con-
tcmplated Reduction Several
Notifications Made In Commissions
Order.

That eastern oregon is in line to
profit by the recent rate reduction
ordered by the Washington railroad
commission seems more apparent
than ever. AT the request of the
Northern Pacific officials the rate
will not become effective until No
vember l, so that the o. r. e N. will
be able to meet the rate by giving it
the 80 days allowed by law in which
to publish the reduction contemplate
ed.
The following dispatch from Olym-
pa explains the latest phases Of the
| question:
The Northern Pacific has agreed to
cut grain rates effective November l..
The State Railroad commission today
made the following announcement:
"As the result of conference be-
| tween Judge Rein, of the Northern
Pacific Railway company, and the
railroad commission yesterday, an
agreement was reached on the wheat
rate case. The Northern Pacific pc
| titioned the commission for a modi-
fcation of its order so as to make the
order apply only to rates from the
interior to Seattle and Tacoma. The
complaint challenged the reasonable
ness of these particular rates and the
evidence was directed towards these
| rates only.
"As a result of the conference the
commission modified its order so as
to read that the old rate of 10 IA
cents per 100 pounds be made II
cents, the 1S-cent rate be made Is
"a cents; the II 3-4-cent rate be
made 10 - cents, the 17-cent rate be
made IA - cents; the 16-csnt rate
be made II cents: the 10 3-l-cent
rate be made 10 ga cents; the 15-
cent rate be made 13 Ii; the II 1-2-
cent rate be made Il 3-4 cents: the
14-cent rate be made 12 IA cents
and the 13-cent rate be made II 1-2
cents
"The order was further modified
by providing that the new rate should
take effect on November I. This ex-
tension was granted in order 10 en-
able the O. r. * y. to meet the rate
Of the Northern Pacific and as the
service rendered by it is practically
all interstate, it is necessary to pub
lIsh the rate 80 days before it can
tan effect. The Northern Pacific,
on its part, agrees Immediately to
prepare its new tariff and have the
same published so as to have the
same conform with the order Of the
commission. The commission furth-
er provided that the rates to points
