LOWER Rates
TO THE PRAIRIES
NEW SCHEDULE EFFECTIVE
HOW DIFFERENT POINTS
ARE AFFECTED.
Lewiston Tribune)

The contention prosecuted by
Lewiston and interior towns has
been successful in securing a 15
per cent reduction on distribut-
ing rates out of Lewiston over
the Camas Prairie line, the new
tariff being effective as of Dec.
81 last. With this victory
achieved, the public utilities
commission of the state is now
taking steps to secure a refund
of freight monies exacted on the
discriminatory basis that ap-
piled during the period the Is
per cent was applied.
The freight rate issue was
raised in January 1919, when
Leonard Way rate expert of the
Idaho utilities commission, visit
ed this district and made an in
vestigation upon request of the
Lewiston Commercial club, the
handling of the case in connec-
tion with the state utilities COM
mission then being placed in the
hands of the transportation COM
mittee of the club, of which A. S.
Stacy is chairman. The inter-
est and support of all the inter-
ior points were solicited and re-
ceived and on April II last a
hearing on the issues was held
at Portland, Ore, before the
Portland district traffic COM
mittee of the United States rail-
road administration.
At this conference the public
utilities commission of the state
was represented by Commission
er George f. Erb, Attorney r. L.
Givens and Rate Clerk Leonard
Way, Shippers were represented
by A. S. Stacey, p. H. Quilliam,
E. w. Eaves and l. G. Kiosness
of lewiston; A. Urbahn, of
Grangeville: f. L. Parker, of
Cottonwood, now of Lewiston
B. l.. Cole, of, Nezperce; d. Bo-
dine, of Vollmer; H. c. Oliver of
Sites; GuyDissmore, of Kamiah
and w. B. Kinne, of Orofino.
On Nov. Z the advice was re-
ceived from the Idaho utility
commission that the Portland
district traffic committee had
recommended to the western
railway traffic committee at
/ Chicago that the reduction of Is
per cent on the Camas Prairie
line be granted. No further in
formation was then received un-
til the receipt of the 1920 tariffs
which show that the Chicago
committee approved the recon-.
mendation and so the new rate
went into effect in January.
The Is Der cent arbitrary rate
was made effective on the
Camas Prairie line about two
wears apo. The success met il
having this removed means {
very material saving on all class
ifications.
At the time the case was be
ing prepared for presentation

What real thing? You mean a
message from one discarnate? How
do you know it was?"
Rosalies tone showed impotence.
Because it came from Roger Mason,
who is dead. There can be no doubt
at all about it,
mo doubt about it,. you say, my
dear Miss Gates. Well, perhaps not.
But we cannot take a single thing
for granted. I have lived as hum

| into the thing as a money making
proposition, pure and simple. When
[ have opportunity l will tell you
all about myself. if you care to hear.
| But rest assured that when real
truths. first began to dawn on me,
when I learned from those Hindus
of the Pacific coast what lay behind
the little parlor tricks of the swamis
| and jogis who come over here and
make the sort of living, many of
them, that I used to make through
my wife and little Nora here-then

Psychiatry interested me, and I have
needed little development. other
powers did. But the real secret of
! power lies in concentration. And the
real secret Of concentration lies with
| the eastern mystic-even yet. What
1 learned out there did not help, as
dering reason of some Of those boys
crazed by the hell of war.
Perhaps I can help Nora, but
what you tell me makes me very
anxious. It's a fixed obsession by
| this time. She is acutely sensitive
mentally-highly psychic. She al
ways was. You saw how she slipped
back into the past when she was
startled by meeting me. That is, I
wake up with this fixed idea about
meeting her husband in the spirit
land again in full possession. Things
like that cannot be ignored. They
must have active treatment. 1t is
pathological now. I will study the
thing out. Perhaps 1 can decide on
treatment shortly. I have another
critical case on hand. The man is
here, but he must wait, Nora comes
first.
Nov. first of all, you are willing
to leave her, here with me: after I
have fixed things comfortably? Do
you trust me, Miss Gates? 1 do not
deserve it, really, for I have been I'M

had almost forgotten her, so many

Do you feel she is safe here under
my sole care?"
Rosalie searched his eyes, but she
had already reached her conclusion.

said. II am thankful we found you"
