LONG VALLEY IS
IN ARMS AGAINST
THE SHORT LINE
Complaint Made That No
Train Service Is Being
Given-Trouble Attribut-
ed to Snow Storms.

There are some indignant citizens up
in Long valley. Judging from the tele-
gram sent to the public utilities COM
mission. They live at Cascade. For
the past week, they assert, the oregon
Short Line Railroad company has not
been giving them service, although they
claim the tracks have been reasonably
clear. In fact, they wired night let
ter to the commission saying they had
to telegraph instead OF write, because
there were no regular trains to take
away their mail w. A. Whitney. gem
eral superintendent OF the Oregon Short
Line railroad. Informs the commission
by letter that heavy SHOWS and drifts
warrant changing the schedule on the
Idaho Northern division. The telegram
from the business men of Cascade is
as follows:
Telegram States Case.
ITO the Public Utilities Commission,
state of Idaho.
TN behalf OF the people OF Cascade
and Long valley in general we hereby
protest against the action Of the Ore
gon Short Line Railroad company in
discontinuing passenger, rail and
freight service on the Idaho Northern
branch OF said railroad company's
line. This company has taken off one
train entirely and has made only one
trip in a week with the other. This
road has never been blocked, bat what
trains could make the trip, one up and
the other down every day. on Friday.
Jan. "A, the rotary train ran from
7 oil To al ha
regular train. but the other train,
starting from Nampa, ran to Banks
and for some unknown reason to the
public. returned from there TO Nampa
instead OF running on to Lakeport.
with a clear track in front of it.
"On Saturday the weather was good
and the track clear and we had no
train. ON Sunday. instead OF running
up the regular train. two cabooses
were hitched to an engine and run from
Nampa to Lakeport without any trou-
BILE and made good time. This train
carried no mail, passengers nor freight.
On Monday the regular train made the
trip from Nampa TO Lakeport on good
time without any trouble. This train
returned to Nampa on Tuesday, but
instead OF returning on Wednesday.
ran only as far as Banks. and went
back to Nampa, as it had done on the
Friday before.
Want TO Be Heard
During all this time since the ro-
tary went down on Friday. Jan. Il.
1915. there had been no storms and the
track was clear and in good condition.
We are SLOW to make complaint, but
1t now looks like the railroad COM
pany intended TO quit or run trains Just
as It pleases and ignore its schedule
altogether. So far as we know, the
commission has never given the rail
road company any permission TO make
any change in its schedule. Such con-
duct on the part OF the railroad COM
pany is contrary TO law, and in de-
fiance OF the public utilities commits
sion and the public.
I'VE are sending this message by
telegraph for the reason that we have
no mail service since Tuesday. Jan. Is,
1916. Now. therefore. before any
change is made in the schedule of said
