RAILROAD EXTENSION
Companies Should SpQnd Surplus, Above a Reasonable
Trofit, on the Building of New Lines -So Says
Judge Stephen A. Lowell.
(Dy a htsff Correspondent)
Marshfleld, Or, Auf. 28. "Yes. I be
lieve that lcjtnlulon can be secured un
der the tnltlntlva and referendum that
will oimraio directly and compel the

TIM win the declaration of Judge

"It may sound radical as I atate It

or to enriching men who live in far

"My position la that our constitution
can be amended so that after we have

allowed for betterments of aervlce and
all proper churges and provided a rea
aonable return on the Investment, all
earnings beyond shall be turned Into the
atate treasury and used for tho building
of new lines. I have not worked out the
details, but I believe the people have
the power In their own hands to remedy
the conditions that are retarding the
growth of our magnificent state, at the
eame time enriching the men who de
poll It."
Judge Lowell has likewise taken i
strong position on the aubiect of rail
road land grants. Ha asserts that If
the courts fail to grant relief under the
auita broueht by the government, the
constitution of Oregon should be amend
ed to allow the state to exercise the
right of eminent domain pay the own
ers meir reasonable value and then aell
In small tracts to actual settlers. He
also suggested the tsnpnsltlon of taxes
wnerever possible to hit landlordism,
and predicted that If present conditions
contlnuo the people of Oregon will
adopt the single tax Idea.
rig-urea on Land Grants.
Judge Lowell presented figures he has
obtained In reference to land grants In
the three counties of Wheeler, Harney
and Malheur. In Wheeler the Eastern
Oregon Land company holds 49,778 acres

number company 16,820 acrea. In Har

California Land company 87,975.
As president of the newly formed de
velopment association. Judge Lowell
will push these Issues to the front. His
election to the chief office emphaslr.es
the fact that the new organlEVtlon Is
not confined to southern Oregon and
Idaho. Iind several speakers called at

We favor the construction of a first

ITew Water Cods Heeded.
This congress heartily Indorses the
effort of State Engineer Lewis In his
campaign to secure the enactment of a
more Just and equitable svstem to pre
serve water rights and establish nrnnrr
distribution of water In the arid regions

The Resolutions.
The resolutions were adopted as fol
lows: State Retarded by Monopolies.
This congress recognizes the fact
that our state as a whole Is suffering
from an enormous concentration or
monopolies that control the entire rail
road system of Oregon, that block the
settlement of the state with enormous
holdings of land grants, and prevent
the natural development and utiliza
tion of our water powers and we fur
ther recogntzn in these monopolies the
grf-ntpst obstacle to the rapid filling
up of the unsettled portions of Oregon
and particularly the southwestern,
southern and eastern portions, with the
ides of Immigration that ore coming
to the Pacific const, and we realize that
our utmost endeavors must be put for
ward to breaking up of these monopol
ies niul preventing the further exploita
tions of our commonwealth by Inactive
capital which bears no share of the
burden of development.
Permanent Hlffbway polioy Advocated.
Resolved. That we favor entering
upon an active policy of highway con
struction bv the cooperation of the
state and the counties In the construc
tion of a svstem of mate highways
In addition to this a system of local
highways must be constructed In each
countv with state aid, such highways
radiating from the county seat to the
undeveloped but highly productive out
lvine- renlons. To this end we recom
mend that county and road district
taxes be levied so as to Include a
proper assessed valuation of the large
non-resident timDcriana Holdings ana
land grant lands, together with an as
sessment of their timber upon a stump
age basts to assist In the construction
of such permanent mgnways tnrougn
tha thinly settled and undeveloped por
tions of our state.
Encourage Eleotrlo Roads.
This congress speaking for the peo
ple of western Oregon recommends the
encouragement of electric railroads by
every possible means. We recognize
them as the most potent factors for
substantial development, and the most
efficient means of bringing about the
cutting up of large ranches lpto small
fruit and dairy farms, thus enabling a
large number of people to buy and own
little homes, becoming self-supporting
citizens and rapidly creating Interur
ban communities with all the comforts
and conveniences of cities, promoting
the greatest good of the largest num-

Cooperate With Capital.
This congresa desires to Impress on
behalf of the people of western and
southern Oregon a sincere desire to
cooperate in every possible manner

are not only In the keening of such
men as E. H. Harrlmarr and .Tames .1.
