RAILWAY
C0MpANY
LOSES OUT
COURT HOLDS THAT
PORTLAND RAILWAY COM
PANY MUST GIVE SAME RATES
TO ALL POINTS UNDER SAME
CONDITIONS.

After reviewing and considering
all the questions presented by the
attorneys of the Portland Railway,
Light G. Power company in it's petit
tions for a rehearing in it's case be-
fore the supreme court against the
Oregon railroad commission, Justice
Slater this morning on behalf of the
court declared that it was unable to
agree with the conclusions presented
by the attorneys, and denied the pc
tition and the original order as is
sued by the commission and which
reduces the fare between Milwaukee
Heights, Courtney, Oak Grove, Cen
ter and Risley to First and Alder
streets, Portland, from Is to 10
cents, and also reduces the fare be-
tween Milwaukee and the same
streets in Portland from 10 to 5
cents, and directing that transfer
privileges be issued identical with
those issued to the people of Lents,
prevails.

OverruIe Questions Raised.

The attorneys for the company
contended that the decision was in
violation of the fourteenth amend
ment of the constitution of the Unit
ed States, which forbids any state
denying any person the equal pro-
lection of the laws, and prohibits the
taking of property without due pro-
cess of law, but the court failed to
agree with the contention. They also
contended the order in directing the
issuance of transfer affected the
rights of another corporation, the
Portland Railway company of Port
land, and that without permitting it
to be heard. Answering this con-
tention the supreme court says that
it is not mandatory upon the COM
pany to issue any transfers - that
the order does not direct this, but
that it says there must not be any
discrimination and that if it gives
transfers to the people of Lents it
must give to the others, but that it
is not compulsory upon the company
to issue transfers to the people of
Lents. Answering the argument
that the rates are reasonable when
compared with those of other roads,
the court says that this is not The
question, but the issue is as to wheth-
er they are reasonable when COM
pared with the roads of the same
company in the same locality The
sought 20 Justify its low
rates to Lents on the ground of ex-
isting contracts between it's predeces-
sors and the former owner of a por-
tion Of the road between Lents and
avenue, but tho court
held that it could not enter into
contract restricting the state in It's
regulation of fares.

The P. D. "Devil" and His Friend
Helps to Celebrate.

The writer, w. J. Mead, and Matter
D. Everette Shelmidine accompanied
Master Leon r. Brown to the very
pleasant farm home of his father, Mr..
Fred Brown, Sunday, and with other
of his friends proceeded to assist the
young lad in celebrating his birthday
anniversary which occurred yesterday,
and also that of his little brother and
sister. the twins, that occurred last
Saturday. Shortly after our arrival,
the good mother gave the very well
come call for dinner that was readily
answered and before this part of the
program was finished the table that
struggled nightly in the beginning
was relieved of much of its burden.
Dinner over, the company proceeded
to the parlor where the time was spent
with music participated in by Master
Leon Brown and the writer and also
by Mrs. Brown and Master Everette
Shelmidine who accompanied them on
the piano. We were then shown over
the fields and the stock which was
treat indeed and if the writer knows
good cattle whsn he sees them, Mr..
Brown has 100 head of as fine, sleek
fat cattle as there is in the country.
As for the balance of the program, the
writer is willing to let the picture
machine or camera tell the rest of the
story providing it resisted the mon
strous strain imposed upon it in several
instances when it turned upon ye
writer. After having good supper
the guests all returned to their homes,
all pleased with a very fine time.
