Oregon Trunk Line Goitig To Klamath Falls CONTRACTS WILL BE LET IN A FEW DAYS Contracts are Iri course of preparation lot tbo extension of the Oregon Trtlnk Line from Madras to a point near the Klamath Indian KeHervatioh, 125 miles south of this city. The, ,ab,ove report was confirmed by Vice President Kyle, it the head quarter of the ,com puny in a conversation recently, apd, he stated ftrthcr that the contrnct,, would io let for this extension in leas than two weeks, or as Boon as the Contractors rcturncdwho are tiow out lookirlg over the line of extension. The latter part of the week Marten Wooleoh, of the large railroad contract ing firm of Cockron, Winten & Woolson, and ormer Kesldent Engineer H. G Hickman, passed through Madras going over the line South, returning to Madras Tuesday evening. They stated that as soon as they arrived at tre headquarters inrortland the contracts would be completed. The first 100 miles of the road is now being constructed by the Porter brothers, and the work Is progressing as rapidly as men can be secured for it. The prob lem of Rutting men for construction work In Central Oregon is becoming seriouB, and almost as fast as men are secured others leave. The heat In the deep canyon of the Deschutes makes the work undesirable. It ie believed that the people who may get the new contract for the fur ther extensions of the Oregon Trunk Line will be compelled to import labor ers from distant states. The line will be completed as far Eouth as Bend, if plenty of labor can be secur ed, before the end of the present year, and will give the Oregon Trunk Line 164 miles of, completed road ready lor operation by January J, 1011. This part of the road will bo of much easier construction than the difficult conquest of the deep rocky Deschutes Canyon. After leaving Madras there Is very little heavy work to be done, the chief engin eering feat and source of heavy expense being tlio high steel bridge across Crook ed IUver, about 20 miles above Madras. This structure it is estimated, will cost considerably over $500,000. Besides the difllculty of construction the bridge presents the problem of getting the material laid down at this remote point in tlio interior. John P. St,evens, president of tlio Or egon TrUnk Iiitio, is still in Chicago. Whether ho will be here in time to take part in awarding tlio contracts for the extension is not known.

To the difficulties of constructing rail roads in a barren and almost Inaccessible canyon have recently been added more troubles for the Oregon Trunk Line and Deschutes Railroad in the adjustment of fancied or real damages accuring to pri vate interests, says the Oregonian. Originally the Deschutes Railroad had to change its plans three or four times before it finally succeeded in locating a line sufficiently high to satisfy the own ers of the Moody dam site. Likewise the Oregon Trunk : Line, going over the Government dam site, had trouble. More or less work on 1" miles of grade had been done when tho Government insisted that the road be built 10 feet higher. It was necessary to change the location for the entire 12 miles. Now a private dam Bite near Sherar's bridge is giving trouble. The site, it is understood, was included in the property recently transferred by tha Wasco Ware house & Milling Company. The dam, when the railroads located their lines, was supposed to be planned for a height of 00 feet. The railroads have located 70 feet above the water, but the new owners say that they will want to build an 80-foot damand are demanding that both railroads go 20 feet higher ud the canyon sides. An immense amount of work has been done on, both sides of the power site, and to change now, would entail an rnormous expenditure of monev if continuous low crndes are to be maintained. A legal fight over the issue is in prospect. The Otegou Trunk Lino is also invol ed in two, legal acton8 concerning rrght of way and Involving large sums. At the point where the bridge is to be con fitructedacross the Columbia to a con nection with the North Bank, land need ed fop, the bridge site is owned by fish ing interests. It, is understood that Mr. Seufert has asked .$135,000 for the land, needed by, tho company, and the latter, contending. that tho amount is excessive, lias begun condemnation pro ceedings. Efforts are being mado to have thc.case heard at a special session of the. cburt so as to dispose of it as soon aSj possible. t Qn tho Oregon shore more right of way i's involved in a suit brought by the Trunk Lino to enforce the terms of an alleged agreement. It is alleged that the former owner agieed to sell the right of way for $500. Later a demand was made for $10,000, and since then the property has been acquired by a power and townsito company, which is asking $20,000. t beId SPECULATES over RAILROAD ACTIVITY Oregon's "Grand Old ftlan Passes Away Judge WIlliAMs was noted statesman Bend, Or.

MADRAS' BASEBALL TEAM GETS SGOOPEd The Madras baseball team got glorj-r ously Walloped by the Redmond nine to the ttihe of 16 to 6 last Sunday. Altho ugh the score was quite one sided, the Madras boys wtte hot so badly outclassed as the score Would Indicate. Up until about the eight innng.it was anybody's gamei when a couple oi .wild throws by the Madras shortstop let , in four or five tallies. This seemed to . take the snap out of tfie home boys who were, straining every nerve t04 keep" the irrigators Ironi gaining a lead. . t The Redmond boys dre a fine lot of players, who put up clean ball, and the Madras team should ndt in any way be disheartened by this defeat, as the irriga tors showed lots of. practice and excellent team work, while the. recent game is the first one in which the .Madras boys have played together, and from the showing made Su'tlday it is evident this team will be towards ihe lead before the season over.
