MIDLAND MEN COMPLAIN
railroad Official" Charged With
Discrimination.
"KLAMATH F.MJA Or.. Oct. !.
(Special Sensational chargee were
maUe against some of (ho Southern Pa
cific Railroad officials today before
members of the State Railroad Commis
sion, which met at Midland to hear com
plaints from shippers about the charges
which bad bean made that tha railroad
would not furnish proper shipping facili
ties at that place. . '
The merchants of Merrill and aoroe of
tha stockmen of the same country, had
complained of the lack of a depot and
of tha lack of proper means being pro
vided for getting their goods delivered
at that point and shipping their cattle
from there.
Several of these prominent stockmen
and merchants were summoned before
the Commission and testified that Mid
land had been promised these things,
but the railroad failed to provide them,
and that virtually all the freight for the
south end of the county would be shipped
to this point which would save an addi
tional ten-mile haul, and all of the stock
going out of the entire country would be
loaded there if tha railroad company
would make It possible by erecting a
depot and providing other facilities.
D. B. Campbell, owner of conslderabla
property In Midland, declared that the
real reason' why Midland had been so
treated was because "most of the high
enip officials were Interested financial
ly In other towns nesr Midland." He also
aald that Division Superintendent Dyer
bad told him that he (Dyer) was Inter
ested In Klamath Development Company
lots and Division Engineer Morrlssoy bed
said that he and "ail the boys" were In
terested In realty at Mount Hebron,
Worden and "Klamath Falls.
Mr. Campbell, to prove hla contention
that Midland had been discriminated
against, showed that the town did not
appear on the road's time-table, while
Worden. Just across tha straits, a much
smaller place, did. When asked by tha
Commission who could give the reason
why this apparent discrimination had
been made. Mr. Campbell declared that
Will 8. Worden, Southern Pacific right
of way a sent, could. He said the town
of Worden had been started by Will 8.
Worden solely to oppose the growth of
Midland.

Storer Incident Revived at Ithaca
and Parallel Drawn Between
RooseveW. and Clodlus, 'An
cient Roman Demajrogoe.
ITHACA. X. Y., Oct SO. Twice In his
speech tonight Professor E. H. Wood
ruff, of Cornell University, called Theo
dore Roosevelt a liar, once an "unmiti
gated liar." His attack made at a poli
tical rally over which he presided threw
the house Into an uproar. There were
catcalls, hisses, cheers and clapping, wltn
a steady shout behind them all of
"Parker, Parker."
" Judge Alton B. Parker then begged the
audience to allow Professor. Woodruff to
be heard. The notoy part of the house
complied and the rest of the programme
went on more quietly.
"Unmitigated Liar" Repeated.
Profeseor Woodruff began 6y reopening
the Bellamy Storer episode, which Colo
nel Roosevelt only recently declared was
closed. He charged that when the Colo
nel denied sending Bellamy Storer to
the Vatican, be was "an unmitigated
liar." and there were letters In hla pos-
Ion. he said, to bear him out.
The uproar had barely subsided when
the professor took up bis cudgels again.
Roosevelt was twice a liar, si t'A when
he denied that the late E. H. Harriman
had subscribed to a corruption fund
to be used for Roosevelt's election to the
Presidency. He closed with s quotation
from the Italian historian of Rome, Fer
rero. transferred from Clodlus, to whom
It was originally applied by the writer,
to Roosevelt. Tha speaker was careful
to specify that he meant to Imply no
comparison between the private lives
of Clodlus and Roosevelt. The quota
tion follows:
"The youngest recruit In the ranks of
the proletariat, who knew no scruples
and combined the violence of the dema
gogue with the self assurance of
the aristocrat. was prepared to
assert his claim to dominate the
community not so much by his intellect.
which was Indeed no way remarkable,
but by the one quality In which he out
shone all his rivals by his uncontrollable
audacity."
Parker Sees No Abandoned Farms.
Judge Parker, who followed, directed
all his shafts at Henry L. SUmson.
Informally. Judge Parker, who came
from Owego today by automobile, re
ferred to the automobile review of de
fied farms, which Colonel Roosevelt
will make next Monday with Representa
tive John W. Dwlght. aa follows:
"Inquiry at the Owego Daily Record
office brought the reply that there are
no abandoned forma in this county. This
seemed to indorse the bulletins imued
by the Agricultural Department at Wash
ington. However. I pursued my inquiry
and looked out for the appearance of
the abandoned farms all the way to
Ithaca. Evidently there is nothing in
the abandoned farm proposition but
votes."
