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.
