HOW HARJRIMA"S POLICY HAS
RETARDED OREGON.
Following are the charges made by
Thomas McCusker against Harrlraan:
That Harrlman has not built a single
mile of road In Oregon except to
keep others out.
That It Is not Intended to com
plete the Coos Bay line.
That the Klamath Falls line is lit
tle more than a paper railroad.
That practically all of the Harrl
man projects In Oregon are "occu
pation" roails.
That Harrlman has repeatedly at
tempted to block other lines by seis
ing right-of-way privileges.
That work on Harrlman projects ts
topped when competing builders
have been crowded from field.
That Harrlman has left In Oregon
the largest area Wi the United States
not served by a railroad.
That Harrlman and other railroad'
Interests are playing a deep game
against (he f-aclflc Coast cities In the
Spokane rate fight.
BY THOMAS McCUSKER.
A great deal has been said recently
about the railroad situation, and our
esteemed friend and philanthropist, Ed
ward H. Harrlman, has come In for. a
large-sised chunk of free advertising;.
None of It, however, merited mors than
the statement of President Roosevelt that
he was a menace to the country. For a
number of years the agents of this dis
tinguished freebooter have flooded the
press with interviews and statements to
the effect that the Harrlman system was
about to spend several millions of dollars
for the construction of this or that branch
of his railroad, when as a matter of fact
nowhere in the state of Oregon, or per
haps on the Pacific Coast, can you point
to a single mile of road he voluntarily
built or that was not constructed for tha
purpose of preventing someone else from
building Into what his attorneys are
pleased to term territory discovered by
them.
Mr. Cotton was most anxious to Impress
upon Interstate Commerce Commissioner
Lane, at the investigation recently held
in this city, that Mr. Harrlman had con
structed several hundred miles of road in
this state, and cited the Coos Bay branch,
giving full mileage, when he knew that it
was not the intention of the company to
ever complete the road, and that it is in
tended solely as an "occupation" road
that is, it Is a bluff to hold anyone else
out of the territory. I predict that It
will stop at Scottsburg, the head of navi
gation on the Umpqua, unless someone
else attempts to get Into that territory,
when they will be forced to complete it.
,It is a matter of history that the Southern
Pacific Company has been "Just ready"
to construct this road for the last ten
years, but as no very aggressive person
appeared on the horizon, the road was not
commenced until perhaps Gould's deter
mined fight to get Into California alarmed
the system.
We have Harrlman's recent attempt to
prevent Hill's North Bank road from
gaining entrance to this city as another
illustration. I do not recall, however,
that Mr. Cotton claimed any credit for
the construction of this particular branch.
He did. however, snatch a few laurels
from Mr. Lytle's crown regarding the Co
lumbia Southern, as every one that Is,
nearly every one was under the Impres
sion that Mr. Lytle really Invaded the
sacred territory of Ev H. and built that
road all by his lonely. They are also la
boring under the hallucination that he is
building the line from Hillsboro to Bux
ton, thence to Tillamook, but behind the
scenes this is on Vecord as another occu
pation road, made necessary by the pos
sibility of the United Railways effort.
Then we have the' branch to Joseph,
which may eventually get there; but
which was born to prevent other parties
from building from Lewlston into that
territory.
Klamath Road a Myth.
Mr. Cotton also claimed that they had
under construction a road from Eugene
to Klamath Falls, which road had not
even been surveyed. A couple of miles
had been constructed to connect the
Springfield branch with the main line,
hence the bluff that this branch was
really under construction.
The branch from Weed, Cal., going into
Klamath Falls is also an occupation road,
as it Is intended to deter any one from
attempting to construct Into Eastern- or
Central Oregon. And, by the way. It is
well for Portland merchants to bear in
mind that the construction of this branch
gives to San Francisco' a very valuable
slice of Oregon territory which should
belong to Portland.
There ts a short road from-Baker City,
known as the 8umpter Valley road, which
could lead across the state and possi
bly connect with the Corvallis & Eastern
Railway, and -as the latter property was
recently purchased by Harrlman, that
danger was eliminated. I believe there
was a feeling of unrest around Ontario
on the Short Line, and a railroad was
talked of, so a private citizen secured
rlehts of way that Harrlman could not
have secured, and constructed the road
but solely for Mr. Harrlman.
There Is another little road from
The Dalles to Dufur. I believe it is
called the Great Southern. This road
going In the direction in which they
. were headed was not much of a
menace, as they were running up
sgainst too stiff a grade to interfere
with Mr. Harrlman's business, so not
much effort was made to block them,
but it seem that one of the promoters'
got busy and surveyed a line, not
only from the end of this line, but
from the Columbia River up the Des
chutes River toward Central Oregon,
and so quietly was the work done that
our friend E. H. did not wake up un
til nearly all the right of way had been
filed on. Then the- general manager of
the Harrlman system, in his own name,
and with some friends, filed on eight
miles of way on the same side of the
river, thereby causing their enemie to
cross to the other side. When actual
construction Is commenced, Harrlman
will no doubt resort to his old tricks
to prevent the Invasion of his territory.
In this connection I want to lay
before every man who is interested in
the progress of Oregon Just what Vll
occur unless he arrays himself pollt-
i
to '
i-
STUDENTS
Ically and in every other way against
the greed of ' the Harrlman system.
Oregon has within its borders 96,000
square miles, and is by long odds the
greatest state in the Union from the
standpoint of its resources. Of its 63,
000,000 acres, only about 8,000.000 are
under cultivation, notwithstanding
for the area under cultivation we are
the largest producers, not only in the
United States but In the world.
' Portland is the largest lumber manu.
facturlng city in the world. She ranks
from third to first as a wheat shipping
port of the United States, a large per
centage of which is grown in Oregon.
We are the largest producer of hops in
the United States, producing as much
or more than the balance of the Pacific
Coast. We are the second largest
wool-growers we are the largest
growers of mohair, the largest
growers of Italian prunes, and we rank
high on apples and other fruits, pota
toes and stock, as well as hay and
other grasses. Our dairy products if
not the largest, are at least as good
if not better than that produced else
where. I saw a statement recently,
that of the 700,000,000,000 feet ottlm
ber in the United States, 300,000,000,000
feet was in Oregon. The largest for
est in the world is located In four
counties of Oregon.
The foregoing shows why we have
the right to demand iat the hands of
the railroads fair treatment, and at
the hands of the Nation consideration
second to none. These facts also show
why the Harrlman system is most
anxious to prevent competition, and is
spending millions to keep rank outsid
ers from developing this state.
As one of the attorneys for the Har
rlman system with characteristic frank
ness stated, they had built up
the business along their lines and
denied the right of anyone else to
compete. Doubtless Oregon merchants
and manufacturers who have been
fighting for rates and protesting
against unjust discrimination, will
be glad to know that the Harrlman
system built up the great business to
enjoy which it keeps you! awake nights.
It is reported that the engineers will
be called off the Portland & Seattle
line. It Is very much a question if it
ever was intended to be constructed,
but was launched merely to try to
whip Hill into line. Work was stopped
on the Joseph branch, and the reason
given was the agitation regarding
railroad legislation. Everyone recog
nizes the absurdity of this statement.
If It is to be stopped it is because they
have scared off competition, and need
their forces to protect some other dis
trict Mr. Kruttschnitt took an automobile
ride to look at Central Oregon, and
paid press reports record the fact that
a line through Central Oregon Is to ba
commenced at once by the Harrlman
system. It has no doubt Just dawned
upon them that there Is a territory
in Central Oregon that needs a rail
road. Had they discovered this fact
before, tbey no doubt would have
hastened to build it.
Ready to Block Road.
Let us look into this unseemly haste
on their part. Several days ago, Mr.
Kelson, the promoter of the Great
Southern Railway, from The Dalles to
Dufur, with a party of Seattle capital
ists, took automobiles from The Dalles
and followed the right of way up the
Deschutes River to Madras and other
points in Central and Eastern Oregon,
with a view of looking over the most
feasible route for their projected road.
The Harrlman people Immediately dis
covered that a road into that territory
would be a good thing, so when Mr.
Nelson and his friends commence op
erations they will have the usual fight
on hand.
It is possible that Mr. Harrlman's name
may not be connected with this, as he is
in such bad odor that he would not re
ceive much consideration at the hands of
the people through whose property he
would seek to build, consequently he may
commence operations through some well
known private citizen who has been
known to construct roads, and who will
call on the dear people for free right of
way and a bonus sufficient to build the
road. Before any donations are made.
It is well to know who is back of the pro
posed road, otherwise you may wake up
to learn that while you may have a rail
road, you also have with it a chronic car
8hortaga and an extremely Inadequate
service. .
Do not obligate yourselves to pay a
bonus to Harriman, or give franchises or
rights of way that will prevent some one
else from building a road that will be of
benefit to you. Remember that In East
ern and Central Oregon there are 56.000
square miles without a railroad, and Har
rlman has a fence around It. This Is the
largest area in the United States with
out a railroad, and within that belt is an
empire whose products could supply a
world. It Is time that the people of this
great stae should awaken to the danger
which threatens to throttle them. You
are going to be called upon, not only to
aid by work and money the development
of Oregon, but by your votes to regulate
the encroachment of the octopus upon
your rights. . '
I am going to submit for your consider
ation some predictions which at this time
I will term facts, and it rests with you

whether or not you believe them of suf

or watchfulness on your part. You cannot
lose anything by adopting the sugges

This Government has under construc
tion at the present time one of the great
est engineering facts of the age, viz.: the
Panama Canal. It is fondly believed by
everybody that the construction of this
canal will be of the utmost Importance to
this country, and as a whole it will. A
great many of our merchants, shrewd
business men see in it a club to whip
the railroads into line, and compel them
to reduce rates, for they have learned by
experience, . or think they have that
water competition regulates freight rates.
That great regulator, the Interstate
Commerce Commission has also said that
a railroad has the right to make terminal
rates to meet water competition, and as
a result, the terminal rates are very
much lower than rates to the Interior,
where the rates are based as a rule on
the terminal plus the local track, except
as in the case of Denver, Salt Lake, etc.,
where they have what is called "Utah
common point rates,' and at Spokane,
where they not only have "Internal
rates" but Internal dissensions as well.
Effect of Water Rates.
Regarding the regulation of rates by
water competition: Mr. Adams, president
or manager of the Hawaiian steamship
line, In his testimony before the Interstate
Commerce Commission, in Spokane, made
the statement that in 1906 his line hauled
175,000 tons of freight to the Pacific Coast,
and that If he had had the vessels, he
could have handled 250,000 tons. This Is
the largest tonnage that ever came by
water to the Coast, but notwithstanding
the fact that the water business was
rapidly Increasing, about 1904 or 1906 the
railroads advanoed all transcontinental
rates from 1 to 15 per cent without con
sulting or even notifying shippers that
such a thing was contemplated, . their first
knowledge of it coming with a new tariff
carrying the advance. Also about this
time the Portland merohant complained
that the local rates from Portland to the
Interior of Oregon and Washington were
too high, and asked for an adjustment.
A time was set for a hearing, and It
was naturally supposed that the adjust
ment of a few local ratee could have been
handled by the aggregation of brain
stored in the Harriman archives in this
city, but It seems that it developed into
an important event and it was not only
necessary for Mr. Stubbs and Mr. Camp
bell, of tha Harriman system, to be . pres
ent, but Mr. Woodworth and other high
officers of the Northern Pacific and Great
Northern as well, merely to adjust some
local rates, nothing more. After some se
vere criticisms of the Portland merchants
by Mr. Stubbs, which was meekly sub
mitted to, the rates were adjusted, and
how?
Mr. Stubbs stated that he was willing
to oblige the Portland merchants, but he
did not want to lose any money for his
company by doing so, consequently he
proceeded to Juggle the rates by reducing
the first, second and third-class rates, on
which little of the freight moved, and ad
vancing the fourth-laas and also all car
load rates, on which the majority of the
freight moved, the result being that the
railroads received considerable more reve
nue than they were receiving before.
This, however, was not the most Impor
tant point whclh they gained. They suc
ceeded in advancing the carlead rates to
the Interior, and this ts the class of
freight that Is handled by water. Now,
according to the testimony of the steamer
people, they had offered to them 250,000
tons of freight, which requires 60 days to
bring around the Horn. It follows that
with the completion of the canal, thereby
not only reducing the time to 30 days, but
the freight rate as well, the water line
would handle several million tons of
freight, or nearly all the carload freight
coming to the Coast.
High Rates to Interior.
, Mr. Stubbs Is paid $50,000 per year to see
that the traffic end of the Harrlman
system makes money not to explain why
it doesn't consequently he must antici
pate the future. Now it is not reasonable
to suppose that the Harrlman system and
the Hill system also, which have millions
invested in transcontinental lines, and
branch lines throughout the country, are
going to sit Idly by and see the water
lines take all the transcontinental busi
ness and leave them merely the local
haul, or In other words they are not go
ing to be the medium by which the boats
can reach the interior with their
freight. How are they going to prevent
it? They have already started by ad
vancing the rates to the interior.
For several months past you may have
seen press notices that the railroads in
tended to eliminate as much as possible
what is known as "commodity" or spe
cial rates, and put everything into the
"Western classification." which will have
the effect of raising the rates from 25 to
50 per cent. The next thing is to cre
ate an inland terminal rate. If I may
call It that, and here Is where Spokane is
playing into the hands of the railroads.
In fact I feel convinced that the railroads
are back of tha Spokane agitation, not
that they want her to get what she is
asking for, but it leads uo to It. and Mr.
XK.-.-.
'I
Aej
tar
rf "w"5'
Cotton confirmed this in his argument be
fore the Interstate Commerce Commission
In Washington, D. C. when he said: "Why
not give the same rate to all the inland
towns, why favor Spokane above the
others?"
That's Just the point. The fourth clause
of the interstate law will prevent Spokane
from getting special favors, and if the
Interstate Commerce Commission, which
the railroads are also trying to hoodwink;
should grant Spokane's request, then they
must grant the same to "Boise, Hunting
ton, Baker City, Walla Walla, etc., as the
fourth clause says that the railroads can
not charge more for a short haul than for
a long haul in the same direction and
under substantially the same conditions,
and there are no conditions that would
warrant Spokane having a better rate
than any of the points I have named. If
Spokane should get what she Is asking
for, then she Is dead as a Jobbing center,
for all Inland points will get the same
rates.
Strike at Coast Rates.
If the railroads succeed in - estab
lishing the same rates to all inland
points, all the .Pacific Coast terminals
will go out of business as Jobbing and
distributing centers, as the Jobbing to
the Coast will be done by New York,
Chicago, St. Louis, etc Consequently
the railroad and not the water lines
will handle the business, for this rea
son: The railroads want the rates ad
vanced from the terminals to the in
terior so as to prevent water compe
tition, and if they can establish a uni
form rate to the interior from the East,
the railroads will have won their fight.
Jfm Hill said that if he could load
his cars west bound, which are brought
empty for lumber, etc., as the east
bound business is three times as great
as the west bound, then he could make
a cheap rate on lumber from the
Coast. I believe you will see wheat
from the Dakotas coming to the Coast
and the cars taking lumber East. The
cars that now bring the merchandise
from the East to the interior if the
railroads get the rates they are after,
will take our wheat East to replace
the Dakota wheat, and in the shuffle
the railroads will earn more money
than they are now doing, but our Job
bing and manufacturing will suffer.
What is the remedy?
Suggests a Remedy.
Open rivers and interurban railways.
You have no doubt observed that the
Harrlman system leaves no stone un
turned to prevent open rivers and elec
tric railways. See how they fought
the United Railway, put not the Wil
lamette Traction Company, which, it Is
said, they own, and it is even intimat
ed that they are not now opposing
the United Railway, and I predict (hat
the long-talked-of bridge at Oswego
will never be built, as they don't need
it. The building of railways from the
river to the interior, no matter where
in the state, should receive assistance
from Portland. The railroad contem
plated by Mr. Nelson up the Deschutes
from the Columbia to Central Oregon
should receive hearty support here, and
others should be encouraged to build.
Not only Portland, but every merchant
and farmer 111 the state should assist
in this work, as it is the very life of
Oregon that is at stake.
There is another important thing,
that should not be overlooked. Presi
dent Roosevelt said some time ago that
he would not be a candidate for re
election, but conditions have so changed
since then that it Is absolutely neces

carry women safely through the' perils of child-birth, but 'its use

sary that he should be reelected. In
the first place the work he started can
not be completed in his term, and there
is no man, perhaps with the exception
of Governor Hughes, who could, 'or
has the backbone .to cope with the
trusts.
The railroads and other large corpora
tions are trying to discredit Roosevelt,
and are raising millions to defeat him.
President Elliott, of the Northern: Louis
Hill, of the Great Northern, Harrlman
and - others attribute the car shortage,
the slump in stocks and everything else
to Roosevelt. Now as a matter of fact,
there Is no car shortage, but there is a
shortage of motive power, and it would
seem that purposely so. In Chicago I
was told that the lumber dealers could
not get cars, but the sidetracks were full
of them, and at Danville, 111., I saw
backed up against the C. & E. I. round
house, at least 20 new freight engines,
resting no doubt. The Chicago papers
came out with great headlines that the
railroads were going to discharge 60.000
employes In that state, and at the same
time the railroads could not handle the
business offered. From this It would
seem the only reason for discharging that
number of men would be to create a feel
ing among the laboring class against
Roosevelt.
, Prosperity Gives Poor Service.
Tha Burlington and other roads gave
notice that they would reduce their run
ning time. Why? For the purpose of
creating a prejudice in the minds of the
traveling public. For some months there
has not been a railroad on the coast run
ning its trains on time. Either they
must plead guilty to design or incompe
tency, but you do not hear of any of the
officials being censured by their superiors
for this condition of affairs.
When our Railroad Commission goes
after them they promise to do things, but
the reforms are Blow. The Commission
should have the co-operation of the en
tire state.
A few months ago a panic was threat
ened. It is claimed that the attempt to
create a panic was brought about by
these corporations on whom Mr. Roose
velt was using his big stick. You should
remember the corporations who do not
hesitate to create a panic to gain their
ends, certainly need -a restraining hand,
and there Is no man better aie than
Roosevelt to check them.
I am aware that certain papers and
selfish interests are flooding the country
with news items to the effect that Roose
velt cannot honorably accept a renomina
tlon since he has once declined, but the
wish Is father to the thought, they only
fear he will. I do not know that he will
accept, but I believe he will, as I
said before. Conditions have changed.
You should allow no third term
twaddle to influence you against your
own Interests, and If Roosevelt should
be the candidate, support him with
all your strength. I believe ' the
views expressed herein cannot be too
widely disseminated, as the people, not
only of this state, but on the Coast,
should at lesst have a chance to Investi
gate for themselves the truth or falsity
of these assertions. If they find I am
In error, then I owe an apology to Mr.
Harrlman, but at this writing I do not
anticipate that he will call for it.
