Reduced distributive rates on merchandise shipped from Portland
The O R and N will cut distributive rates on merchandise from Portland to eastern Oregon points via The Dalles starting March 20, under a 1908 Oregon Railroad Commission order. The roughly 14 percent cut follows lengthy controversy and a July 1907 complaint by the Portland Chamber of Commerce alleging overcharges under close rates. The dispute, pending before commissions and courts for nearly three years, may continue as the company seeks higher court review.

Railroad Commission orders rate reductions on Portland to The Dalles line
The Commission found charges for land & Pacific lines excessive and requiring adjustment. A hearing led to cutting first class rates between Portland and points east of The Dalles by one sixth of the gap to The Dalles rate 25 cents. Other class rates were reduced proportionally to first class under the company distance tariff, about 14 percent lower than prior levels.
