NEW EXPRESS RATES
IN EFFECT TODAY

Wash ngton, Aug. IA general re-
duction in rates was put in effect to-
day by practically all of the express
companies operating in the United
States. The filing of the new tariffs
followed the announcement of the
interstate commerce commission that
a thorough probe would be made IN
to the rates, classirications, regula-
tions and practices of the express
concerns. \ growing fear of parcels
post legislation may also have influ-
enced the express officials to reduce
their rates.
The reductions put into effect today
are sweeping, and in the case of long
hauls to non-competitive points the
cut is especially deep. About ninety
per cent of all express traffic in the
United States is affected. The double
graduate system of charging for pack
ages under 100 pounds weight is
abandoned The new tariffs, however
will not change the plans of the inter-
state commerce commission to under
take a thorough investigation. EX-
amners will be sent all over the
country and the books of the COM
panies will be thoroughly Searched.

East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1911-08-01

Is there to be any paving on East
Alta street and if so how much is to
be paved? This is a question now up
to the city authorities for solution
and it is problem that arouses much
interest in view of past differences as
to what should be done with that
thoroughfare.
Up to this time the city attorney
and the city engineer have not COM
pletely finished checking up the num-
ber of signers on the remonstrance
from East Alta. 1t is said in official
circles however that the remonstrance
will not show the necessary 80 per
cent against the Improvement but that
the remonstrance will be allowed any
way, in view of the large number of
people who opposed paving on the
basis il has been ordered.
What viii They DO.
With the remonstrance allowed the
question would then arise as to what
action the council should take with
reference to Alta street 1t is re-
ported that the street committee will
recommend that but two blocks OF
East Alta street be paved and that
the street be thrown into n district
with Cottonwood and Webb.
However, such n course rs this
would again arouse the fighting blood
