SCHEME OF SOUTHERN PAC
IFIC
A GIGANTIC HOLD-UP SCHEM
And How it Would Effect County an
Oregon City
Mulino, April 20
Edior Courier:
A famous financier once said he re
garded the state of Oregon as HIS
PRIVATE PROPERTY. That man
was the late E. H. Harriman, and well
indeed do the old residents know how
true was his boast. All the people who
have had to ship ireight over the
Southern Pacific railroad (a Harri-
man property) know that the policy
of that great corporation has literally
crushed the development of the State
of Oregon. Why has the State of
Washington with not as good resourc
es, got twice the population that Ore
gon has .' 1 say that every well in
formed railroad shipper will tell you
that is because Washington has Hill
railroads and because Oregon
(until quite recently) has had liarri
man railroads. I will say in writing
this series of articles " to the press I
voice the sentiments of hundreds of
citizens of Clackamas county in re
gard to the railroad situation in this
section. I, and a number of others, be
lieve the mass ox the people do not re
alize the extreme seriousness of the
railroad situation, the tremendous
loss that will accrue to the prosperity
of Clackamas county if the Southern
Pacific railroad succeeds in prevent
ing the BUILDING 01'' THE CLACK
AMAS SOUTHERN RAILROAD,
which they are making the greatest
possible ellort to do.
With no intention of building a road
to Jyiolaiia irom Canby the Harriman
people, for more thun a year past,
have been making the tlimsiest kind
of bluff at building a railroad between
these two points.
During the past winter the Clacka
mas Southern li. R has spent two dol
lars on railroad construction to one
that has been spent on the Canby-Mo-lalla
road. But about March first
last a well known Canby man who has
been booming the road irom
other parts as it is definitely settled
that the P .E.& E. railroad is to be
built. There will be a fall, not a raise
in labor. Of course I do not deny that
there will be a short temporary boom
of Molalla and Liberal, but it will not
last.
I spent a few weeks in the Rogue
River Valley in Southern Oregon in
1908. A business man of Medford said
to me: We have quite a boom on here
now, but it cannot last unless we get
another railroad. The Southern Pacif
ic makes it impossible for us to do
anything. We pay three or four times
as much for a carload of freight from
either Portland or San Francisco as
they pay between those two cities.
(Southern Pacific rates on wheat and
flour, Portland to Roseburg $180;
Portland to San Francisco $00.) The
town of Medford is covered over' at
the present time with for rent siens.
and as a last resort the people have
signeu wim urants rass to Duna a
railroad to Crescent City, Cal., 75
miles over a range of mountains, and
worn is now going on. This project is
called the Pacific Interior R. R.
The City of Salem with all the ad
vantages of the state institutions
made small growth for many years
for many years until the Oreeon El
ectric was built there and the Fall
City electric line. Since that time Sa
lem has almost doubled her popula-
lon. ,
Compare the prices of land alone-
the Southern Pacific lands in Yamhill
county with that along the Oregon
Electric (a Hill road) and note the
difference in growth in the two sections.
I am not jealous of Molalla and I
nope they will make a good town
there. I consider that the buildiner of
a large town at Molalla or Liberal
either will help Mulino rather than
hinder its growth and furnish us here
with a better market for our produce.
I do not hold to the narrow view
that my town can be built up by
PULLING DOWN MY NEIGHBOR
TOWNS. But I know that a Southern
Pacific Railroad cannot be a benefit
to the Molalla Valley.
Next week I propose to nut down
in cold facts and figures how the dif
ference in value between the Portland
hugene and Eastern and the Clacka
mas bouthern K. K. will amount to
more than one million dollors directlv
and severaly indirectly, which amount
will be lost if the Clackamas South
ern is not built. I will show that the
Clackamas Southern R. R. is so near
success that it needs such a small am
ount of money to complete it that it
is me neignc or lolly to set down and
say that we cannot do it.
This hold-UD shall not he nnllprl off
by that great corporation that has
cursed both Oregon and California for
lo these many years. Watch out fnr
another expose next week. Yours for
justice to the stockholdres of the
Uackamas .southern, who have put
their heard earned monev in to nnp nf

SOME TIGHT ONES
Caustic Comments on Today's Hap
pemngs by John Stark
Tucked away in an obscure corner
or a Portland paper 1 found a small
news item on small matters that has
a large meaning to such as I. It reads:
"The idol of the home in the Back
cay is a poodle dog. They run from
$100 to $1,000, while babies (human I
suppose) are being sold at from $2
to $10, depending upon whether they
are uionues or Druneit.es.
Wow where do you suppose this
news item is j-eportea Irom Would
you think Hongkong or on the Hoten
tot coast; Uh my no! Those people
bib not civmzeu, at least are not cul
tured, refined and enlightened Christ
ians, for it is only amid such sur-
surroundings that the quoted condit
ion can flourish.
This news item bears a Boston rlatp

stance this might do, "Suffer little
Fido come unto me," or if you pre
fer, "111 fares the land, to hastening
ills a prey, where wealth accumulates
and men decay."
It is no longer to become a federal
judge or president of these United
States to enjoy a fishing trip at pub
lic expense. You can have this by be
ing a depraved criminal. Of course
you must stand in with our best
people, such as the merchants and
manufacturers' Association. Ortie Mc-
Mamgal has just had an outing and
reports naving -sucn a good time."
In a raid on Chicago cafes by the
vice probers a lot of our most promi
nent people of both sexes, were su-
prised at their midnight revelries.
But the senate committee
that no goqd would come of exposing
the persons; to making their names
public as that would create a scan-
was found out. There may be others
who are not yet found out.
How can I respect a law which the
law makers will not obey ? Perhaps if
investigation would investigate every
man in congress would be tarred and
feathered with the same stick.
Times do change in spite of all re
actionary forces. Next week will show
that the great change is here, when

OLD TIME HISTORY
Early Day Remembrances and Inci
dents of a Molalla Pioneer
My last narrative closed with Kin
ney chaining the wild Buck Indian to
the back end of his hack. There was a
strong protest made by the company
against taking the Indian in that way
but all remonstrance failed as Kin
ney was known to be a dangerous
man. So we drove on and as the hack
started to move the Indian began to
pull back and buck like a ram tied to
gate post. It was quite laughable to
see the poor native perform. Kinney
named him Friday, and we had gone
but a short distance when Kinney
took his black snake whip and rode
behind the Indian and when the noor
fellow would pull back Kinney would
apply the whip and he soon learned to
lead. When we went into camp he was
tied under the hack and some old
