nearer the 35-cent mark, that the
company take the surplus, and that
where 1t is nearer the 30-cent mark
that the passenger be given the bene-
fit. Under this plan where the fare
Is S2h cents the company would
charge 35 cents, but where the fare
fell below 32h cents the company
would charge but 80 cents, the 2h
cents going to the passenger.
Also Takes Long End Here.
The other practice followed which
the commission believes unreasonable
and unfair to the public Is that o.
failing to observe the short line mile
age basis in quoting Its fares. 1t Of
ten follows that the company has two
routes from one station to another
the one little shorter than the 9TH
er. The commission believes hat in
cases Of that kind that q passenger
should be charged a fare only equal
to the short route, but the company
always insists on charging the fare
for the long route.
The company paid no attention to
the appeals OF the commission In the
matter, and II has now decided to
make an Investigation Of It's own, and
compel II to comply with the law, as
it interprets 1t on the subject.
When the officers Of the Southern
Pacific Railroad company and the Pa
clfic Railway company appear before
the commission on June 6 for the pur-
pose OF having it divide equitably be-
tween them the joint rate TO be
charged by the two roads for freight
/ from Timber to Portland, the com
mission will sit as an arbitrator for
the first time in such case.
The Pacific Railroad company, I'M
| I'll the commission made an order to
the contrary, recently charged Ave
cents for the transportation Of freight
from Timber to Hlllsboro, ana from
there to Portland the Southern Pa
cific made charge Of four cents,
making a total OF nine cents. The
commission. after hearing on the
subject decided that a joint rate OF
seven cents should be charged, and
directed the companles to meet and
agree upon the division Of the rate
between them. The companies the
other day advised the commission
that they we're unable TO agree and
the commission will now at the hear
ing listen to the arguments OF both
and then, as board of arbitration
under the law fix the division OF the
rate between them.

Rates Unreasonable.

The company charges three-cent
rate in the state for the transpOrta-
ton Of passengers, and, while 1t Is
not the intention of the commission
to further reduce that rate, 1t Is Its
intention to put an end to the practice
followed by the company OF taking
so to speak the long end OF the
change" and in failing to observe the
short line mileage basis in quoting It's
rates, and those are two questions
which will be involved at the hear
ings.
The commission some time ago
called the company's attention to the
unreasonable practice employed by II
IN always taking the long change
and never giving the public the bene-
fit. For instance: Where a fare Is
81 cents from one station to another
the company always insists on charg-
ing 35 cents. The commission reefs
that this should be adjusted 80 thatt
once in a while the public would set

What Rumor Says.

The report comes out OF Toledo
that the Ann Arbor railroad company
contemplates purchasing four more
motor cars to add to its equipment
Should it do so there will be nine cars
i'll operation, and a service about equal
to any electric road will be given
There are other rumors concerning
the Ann Arbor, whether they have
any basis in fact or not, that are OF
general interest. One is to the effect
that this road is considering seriously
the question of converting the entire
line into an electric system. and that
the Chippewa Power Co is one step
toward the consummation of the end
in view. 1t is said that should the
road pc thus equipped, il will have
its schedule on fast and local cars its
local and through freight, and give
the people an hourly service. By
some such step is considered as one
method of forestalling any other road
TO the south. The Ann Arbor is Civ
ing excellent service now.
