"1 THE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, JUNE 16, 1908, 11. STORK UNTRUE, SAYS MR. WHITE Charges Wanton Slander of Klamath to Reclamation Officials. STARTED IN WASHINGTON Uelay in Completion of Railroads the Chief Cause of Tardy Develop ment of That Country, He Says, and 'ot Land Speculators. That the Klpmath projefct has been wantonly slandered through the inapira iun of persons connected with the United States Reclamation Service at Washing ton, D. C, probably because of the de sire to divert monies that should be ex pended In this state, and particularly at Klamath, to other Government projects, is the statement made by Frank Ira 1Vhit9 yesterday, when called upon in reference to a statement In a Washington dispaicli published yesterday morning. In genera! the matters set forth in tha dispatch ne denied by Mr. White, who Is a iand-owiier and is farming land' under the canal system of the Klamath project, a:;d Is aiso enjtacei! in the sale of lands, hence Is. very familiar with all conditions concerning the matters to which the dis patch alludes. "It is not altogether surprising that such a statement as that contained In the Washington dispatch relative to the Klamath project should have been in spired by persons unfriendly to Oregon and to that particular project," said Mr. White, "and 'is evidently given publicity for the purpose of misleading the citi zens of this state. Were the statement made not a slander upon the Klamath Basin and untrue. I would decline to make any reply. It is so flagrantly false that If not refuted it would do great In justice to the people of Klamath County, while at the same time justifying in the minds of some persons the discrimination that has been shown In distribution of the Reclamation fund as has been fre quently noted by The Oregonian. Charges Are Cnfounded. "It is not true that speculators have re tarded the completion of the Klamath project, and as a matter of fact the of ficials of the Reclamation Service know that the difficulty in attracting settlers to land in the Klamath Basin has been lack of transportation. Land values have not stood In the way of the real homeseeker, and there is probably no other Govern ment project where land of such produc tive power, either with or without irri gation, and held in private ownership, can be held at as low acreage cost as in Kla math. - It is not true that the lands are culti vated as soon as water Is ready in other Government projects and difficulty has been experienced in several, and notably in the Carson-Truckee of Nevada, where the land is practically all public domain and the work of placing homeseekers on the land is administered by an employe of the service well qualified for the work, yet is has been a slow process to get the land in that project utilized, although on a transcontinental railroad.. Like diffi culties have been encountered elsewhere, and notwithstanding the lack of trans portation and dilatory conduct of the Reclamation Service, a great deal of the land has been sold to people who are put ting it in condition to produce crops and creating homes. This has been done with out assistance of the Reclamation Service, and despite such unwarranted and in jurious stories as this given out at Wash ington. Landowners Aid Project. "There is no instance to my knowledge where any landowner is preventing the use of land for which water is available, and as every official connected with the Reclamation Service ought to know, ef forts have been made by large landown ers to employ men to clear land within the past year, when it was utterly im possible to hire them to do that class of work. A year ago men refused to grub sagebrush, just as they refused to work on canal construction and railroad grad ing, because 'they could find employment at more agreeahle occupations part of the time and devote the remainder to travel ing between employment agencies and places where men were needed but re fused to stay oh the work. "Water was not- ready last year in time for irrigation of the crops, and, owing to defective construction and incidents common to first operation of a new canal, irrigation was greatly interfered with, even after water was turned into the main canal. Sufficient water was not furnished last year to all the land which was already in crop and which had pre viously received irrigation from the An keny Canal, acquired by the Government, and landowners sustained damage and loss thereby. Many landowners did not receive water for nearly the amount of acreage on which they would have been glad to pay the water rental, and while there are about 13,000 acres, under the first unit of the main canal then com pleted, the service could not have deliv ered water to more than half of that acreage In time to have been of any benefit whatever. . "Another false statement is that in regard to the refusal of landowners to make payment of the first Installment on their water-rights. Such payment has not yet been demanded by the Gov ernment, and under the Reclamation Act, presumably will not be until next year. Instead, the Reclamation Service has fixed a water-rental, to cover cost of "maintenance and operation of $1.50 per acre for the land receiving water, t have understood that two landowners failed to make payment of the water rentals for their lands last year, but In these instances there is some question of law and fact .involved and it is a matter to be adjusted between the par ties concerned and the officials of the Reclamation Service. In no wise does this reflect upon the spirit of the peo ple of the Klamath Basin, and the pub licity inaccurately given this from" Washington displays a petty position on the part of somebody there con nected with the Reclamation Service. Klamath People Patient. "People of the Klamath Basin are anxious for speedy completion of the system of Government irrigation works. They have been patient with the Recla mation Service for its dilatoriness, real izing that under the conditions existing prior to the past few months, it was most expensive and difficult to prose cute the work that required a great amount of labor. Likewise, the lack of transportation was a serious factor In development of the country, as-well as building of the canal. Prospective homeseekerp have not been easily at tracted to the Pacific Coast because of the lack of railroad rates that would enable the best class of intending set tlers to make the initial trip of investis" gation. "I have talked with officials of the Reclamation Service concerning this" phase of the situation and th'y are fully orvare of the facts, and until this year wo could not sive tha settler assurance of a means of disposing of his surplus products, because of tardiness of the contractors constructing the new rail road. Coupled with all of these cond! tlons, which are now about overcome, has been seeming disparagement of Kla math by those connected with the Re clamation Service. This leads only to the one conclusion stated, that the state ments emanating from "Washington and of course coming from persons connected with the administration of the Reclama tion Service, must be Inspired by an un friendly attitude toward Oregon and which may be responsible for the diver sion of reclamation funds to projects other than those in Oregon." DINER ON SEASIDE TRAIN People Bound for ( Beach May Eat Meals En Route. For the first time in the history of the road, the. Astoria & Columbia River Railroad wiil put on a dining-car serv ice for the accommodation of people traveling to the beaches during the Summer months.. The dining-car will be continued in operation after the beach season is over. The new serv ice will be started June 27. At the same time there will be changes in the time card that will give better facili ties for reaching the Oregon beaches and will be appreciated by the. public. A dining-car will be attached to the night train, which will leave the city at 6:30 P. M., instead. of 6 o'clocjt, as at present, and, will rim through to Sea side Instead of stopping at Astoria. The morning train wll leave the city at the same time as at present, 8 A. M. A special beach train will be oper ated from Portland on Saturday after noons, .leaving here at 2.-.20 P. M., in stead of 3:10, as has been the case during former Summers. This train will arrive at Seaside at Zb. Returning from seaside, the morn ing train wiil leave the beach at 7:20 o'clock, and the night train will leave Seaside at 4:31 o'clock. The latter train will carry a diner, so that pas sengers bound for Portland may get their dinners on the way back to the city. In addition, there wll! be a special train leaving the beach Sunday nights ot 6:30 o'clock that will arrive in Port land at 10:20 o'clock. This train, like the Saturday afternoon special for the beaehl will make only two or three stops at the principal stations only Astoria, Rainier and' Goble being scheduled for stops. The new service will be a. great im provement for the Summer beach travel! . for the Saturday and Sunday specials will permit of longer stays at the seashore for weekend visitors.
