building here , and decide some .
definite plan for action. No
definite plans of action are to
be laid down, but all will act

The heading of this article is hot ad
dressed .to Mr. Harrlman. It ia a quo
tation and the aense of it is: Who is
Harrlman that a great state should wait
his pleasure and how long will the peo
ple of Oregon whine and do nothing? No
wonder Mr. Harrlman takes his time
and laughs at Impotent fury spending
itself In the froth of the mouth. v

Eastern Washington Is an object les
son of the some country as Eastern Ore
gon (only with less valley and plateau
land In It) treated with railroads. The
railroads developed the country, not the
country the railroads. In consequehoe
or tne rauroaa - development or eastern
Washington, great interior cities have
arisen and all in turn- contribute to the
greatness of the Sound ports.
Portland has an empire back of her,
but It Is a silent and a desert empire
today, while we wait In that helpless
ness begotten of long dependence on
others.
What can Mr. Harrlman do that the
eltlsens of Oregon can not do? He would
build roads developing eastern Oregon,
either out of the net earnings which
every year he takes from the people of
Oregon or as is more likely he would sell
bonds. Can not we of Oregon sell bonds?
Can not we hire engineers and laborers,
and buy steel. Mr. Harrlman and hie
Standard Oil friends do not yet absolute
ly control the money of the world. Mr.'
Hill is proof of that fact. The bonds of I
tne state or Oregon would sell like hot
cakes. And from a railroad so built we
would take the tolls taken by Mr. Har
nman. vnat objection is there, to a
little self help? We are bonding the

as "the state maV dictate, in terms not

The state ownership of ; a railroad,
leased under strict- terms for private
operation, is the true solution. r When

ship over the iron highway because of
vital necessity, leaving the operation to
the managers for what proni tne .staie
permits, and the simplest and most log
ical method is for the state to construct
or . condemn, and so own. its railroads,
leasinor them to operators for the profit
the operators'-could - make under the
term's laid down in' the , lease.'- -These
details would soon sottle themselves.
This would not be a repetition of the
old errors. The state's money wouia not
be given to another and nothing re
ceived' in '' return. On the contrary.; the
state would hold from first to last the
grip" of absolute ownership; the power
of .complete . dictation. ..
' Condemn Harrlman System.
It might be sai that the Stata would
have to lease to Mr. Harrlman or oper
ate the road itself. No at all; Mr. Har
rlman has rivals, several of them, who
wnnlrt ha Bind to lease thle road, and
tha state legislation arid Inter-State Com
merce commission no- longer permit a
trunk-line to chokO a. tributary line to
death. Moreover, it would not take
much' more to make the main eastern
Oregon Jlne a trunk - line from Snake
river to Portland and the sea. Or, per
hnna hpttr. than all would be to con
demn the entire Harrlman system which
ltes within the state Jurisdiction, and
that means practically the entire O. R.
A N. llne. .This could be under condem
nation proceedings appraised by a Jury
of Oregon citizens, and' unless the price
was clearly confiscatory Mr. Harrlman
could not prevent thl by any turn or
aopeal he could possibly make from the
United States constitution down. Pay
Mr. Harrlman from the proceeds of
state bond sales and then lease to him
or his rivals or some other skilled rail
t. under Strict terms
and conditions and a rental that would
retire . the bonds. ,
The profits of tne o. it. sr . nave
been such every year that they wouia
retire each year the entire bond issue
necessary for the eastern Oregon rail
roadB. It would not take long to re
tire the state's bonds from the rentals
of the state's railroads. After that the
railroad rentals could pay the expenses
of the state. ......
- These suggestions will at least show
that the people of Oregon have the
remedy In their own hands and there is
no need of their sitting at the feet of
Mr. Harrlman as if he were an idol and
helplessly wringing their hands, crying
out pitifully, "HoW long, O Lord, how
long?"
There Is snother thought, which
shows the logic of this situation. Does
the Interest of this state or any state
lie In more means of transportation or
less? More railroads or fewer?. The
interest of the state, of every man. wo
man an1 rhIM In It. or to come Into it. Is
for the greatest possible railroad devel
opment Does the interest of M. Harrlman or
any other railroad king lie In more rail
roads or fewer within his territory?
The strenuous opposition of Mr. Harrl
man to everv invasion of his personal
private domain, whether It be Califor
nia or Oregon, speaks touaer man worua.
Xarrlman or Oregon. '
Here we have a conflict of interests
the state wishes more roads, Mr. Har
rlman does not. Which is to prevail?
Moreover, does not this perpetual con
flict of interest, which will always
continue between the private exploita
tion of a state by - private Interests
and the demands of the state In the
public interests, suggest that the .real
party to control the railroad situation
Is the part? whose interests lie with
railroad development. The state.
Therefore, we conclude that the fool
Ish blunders of our Inexperienced or
corrupt predecessors should not deter
us from helping ourselves. The method
pursued by them was gift or bonus
without control. The method to be
Pursued by us Is ownership and con
rol, without gift. The exigencies of
the case require a railroad through cen
tral Oresron. Is It better to let Mr.
Harrlman, hostile to railroad develop
ment, become the owner of one more
Instate railroad, or should the state
itself, which finds its most vital In
terest In railroad development, become
the owner. Ought the railroad profits
from Oregon go to Wall street, or
should they remain here to support this
state after they nave retired the bonds?
If Oregon owned her railroads, (all of
them) the rentals ought, as the state
develops, pay all expenses.
But I have no idea anything will be
done. The people of Oregon, like those
of other states, have lost all Initiative,
11 confidence in themselves. They be
lieve the raising of large sums of
money is a special art, only known to
the wisards of Wall street. They do
not understand that they have In for
ests, fisheries, mines and fertile fields,
a security greater than most European
kingdoms. Great enough to raise money
on that would girdle the globe with
railroads. The helpless people Of Ore
gon will look at each other helplessly
and wait Mr. Harriman's good pleasure
to exact further tribute from them.

A Project Involving. 5000

(Special pispateb to The Joaraal.t
North Yakima, Wash., Jan. ! J. The
fact that the government' reclamation
service will not recognlxe the right of
Clark O'Bryan" to take -water from the!
Yakima river, ties up a project to re
claim 6000 acres of land Just north of
this city, and will prevent turning water
on 1000 acres of the tract which - have
been purchased and made ready for cult
tlvatlon this coming season. O'Bryan
has already spent about 180,000 on this
project, and Is prepared to spend about
$200,000 mote. Now unless he can reach
some understanding with "the service
within the next few days the project
will be abandoned, for the time being at
least.. He has sold about J200.000 worth
of the land, mostly to working people.
They have been basing their hopes and
plans on getting their orchards started
this year. About 1000 acres have been
cleared and made ready for cultivation.
. O'Bryan succeeded to the alleged
rights of Charles Bryant In the Yakima
river, Bryant began work on an irriga
tion scheme three oour years ago. He
had made his filing before the water
rights were settled for the Ttntnn nrol-
ect. He fell down, in some way on the
undertaking and for a time ceased to
work, it is claimed. ' O'Brvan cams alhnv

time me settlement naa Deen made, and
no account was taken of the Bryant
water right or claim. The reclamation
geople Ignored It, taking the ground that
iryant had not exercised "due dtlli
gence" In getting the water en his lands.
O'Bryan went ahead with the Pomona
project, he says, on the strength of the
opinions of three of the best irrigation
lawyers in the state, men who f fuiiv.
