licensed veterinary. Mr.. Postol
lives just across the river from
Oregon and he cited this instance
; A short time ago an Oregon farm
; er purchased IA grade pigs of {
neighbor on this side of the river
The ferryman at Arlington refus.
ed to let him across with the pigs
until he secured a certificate OF
inspection. The nearest licensed
veterinary is at Goldendale and
the charges for inspection was
one dollar a mile and one dollar
| a head for each animal inspected.
Expensive Inspection
The cost of inspecting that
load of pigs was SAG, or nearly as
much as they were WORTH" said
Mr.. Poston. The same pigs
could have been shipped to any
place in the state without in
spection. AS one vitality inter-
ested in the future of the stock
business, l am strongly in favor
of rigid regulations to prevent
the sale of diseased animals, but
health restrictions which follow
only the imaginary line which
divides one state from another
are only makeshifts. The law
which says that l cannot ship a
pig across the river to a neighbor
but may send it clear across the
state to Seattle, may be right in
theory but in practice it is an alb
surdity. l am in favor of cutting
out these imaginary lines and at
taching a heavy penalty to ship
ping diseased stock, in or out of,
or within the state. -
= Need County Roads
Although stock is Mr.. POstOn's
hobby, he has some very definite
ideas along other lines. For in
stance, he knows that when, in
driving from Finley to his.ranch,
he stops and opens seven gates,
he isn't travelling a county road.
Il am glad to see that you fellows
are waking up and trying to get
some of the road money expend-
ed down this way. We don't ex-
oect much down our way, but we
10 feel that we are entitled to a
county road Of some kind. Some
lime ago we joined the farmers
# Klickitat county in an effort to
get road opened along the river
rom Plymouth to Goldendale.
The Klickitat fellows made good
md the road has been opened to
he Benton county line. We sent
petition to the board of county
commissioners. 1t got as far as
pigeon-hole, and we are still

AS result Of the decision all
questions are removed as to the
right of the commission not only
to pass on the reasonableness of
a lower rate for a haul to more
distant city than to a nearer one

how much the difference may be.
1t recognizes the power of the

SPOKANE WINS OUT
IN LONG RATE FIGHT
Inland Towns Will Not Have to Paw
Back Haul Charges on Eastern
Freight Shipments

The Spokane freight rate fight,
begun almost 25 years ago, was
brought to close last Monday
when the interstate commerce
commissions so-called inter-
mountain rate orders were sus-
tanned as valid by the U. S. SUI
preme court, which held, at the
same time, that the long and
short haul clause of the inter-
state commerce law was consti-
tutional. Both had been attacked
by the transcontinental railroads
in defense against the suit insti-
tuted by the city of Spokane to
secure lower rates.
The defunct commerce court,
passing over the constitutional
question, had annulled the or
ders on the ground that the COM
mission had no authority to issue
blanket" or zone" orders and
might act only on the reasonable
ness of specific rates.
In overturning that contention
today and holding that the COM
mission did have such power, the
supreme court decided a point
which lawyers and close observ-
ers of the interstate commerce
commissions procedure say is of /
equal Importance to the inter-
mountain rate case itself If not
greater.
Opposition to the five per cent
increase in freight rates being
asked by the eastern railroads
and upon which the interstate
commerce commission is expected
to announce its inspection at any
day-had been based principally
upon the contention that the COM
mission did not have authority
under the law to grant such
blanket" increase. Copies of
The courts decision today were
sent Immediately to the COM
mission for its guidance.
