Flour Freight Rates Spark Baker City Dispute
An inquiry into flour pricing reveals a discrepancy in rates from Union and La Grande to Baker City versus Pendleton and Waltsburg. Union to Baker City carried 14 cents on four under a cancelled tariff, while Pendleton to Baker City moved 12.5 cents. To meet demand, a Pendleton to Baker City rate of 15 cents and 12.5 cents from intermediate points were set, seemingly favoring Baker City and harming Union. The paper argues rail policy favors community prosperity and notes Baker City’s large consumption exceeds local mills’ capacity, suggesting the Pendleton special kept prices lower locally.
