I- . -Tttfi; OREGON DAILY JOURNAL. PORTLAND, OREGON iff EGRAPH CO I POLES ARE RULED FROM HIGHWAY ' If th Postal Telegraph company eta pole alone the lower Columbia river highway between Astoria and Gobi It will be under a court order. The taU highway commission Tuesday reaffirmed ticafcle. ' both from an operating and a construction standpoint It would cost more, h to reconstruct th- tele phoflS polss for th additional wires than a aeparata Una of poles. UTESD TO BtILD LET W Intend, If ws can. to build . th. pole line," added Hampson. "nd by way of concession will stay off th scenic points. At "bther points ws art wining to use round poles instead of split ones. We will either secure a private right of wsy or will fight it out in the courts." . Hampson asked th highway commis sion ' to Indies t on what points of the feirhway .ths company would be -per-. mitted to build and tinder what condi tions ss to character of construction, or to say. whether the company would be permitted to build at all. "I am wtUlnsr to grant you everything you are legally entitled to and to fight you to the limit on what you are not legally entitled to," was the repeated B AND TS CHARGED WITH ROBBERY its policy to keep the poles of the com psny and all other poles off the right of Commissioner Barrett wanted to Knew by what, right the company tad started the scenic I way in order to preserve beauty of the highway. An attorney for the telegraph oompany ' appeared before the commission and of fered in the way of compromise to use snore sightly Poles and where possible- to keep them off scenic points. This pro posed settlement of the controversy was not acceotable to the commission, whose nolicy ss expressed by Commissioner Yeon wlU be a willingness to grant vervthlnr which the company can by legal means obtain and to fight to the limit over what it can not legally 1 procure. I am willing to give you all the law will allow you but no more," said Com- wiiuiioner Barrett. "Where there is scenic beauty the poles will ruin it, and where there is no scenic beauty the poles will make It 10 times worse.' AGBEEXZ9T SCGGSSTBD The Question was recently before the public service commission which made an order to the effect that it had no Jurisdiction in the matter but suggested that the matter might be adjusted by mutual agreement of the state highway Aommlaaton and the telegraph. company. In accordance with this recommendation Attorney Hampson and Superintendent . Lynch appeared before the commission Tuesday, In opening up the conference Commis sioner Yeon stated that the Columbia river highway is unique, and in reality la a. nark "Dure and simple" which ' should not be defaced with signs and ether disfigurement He thought that the telegraph company owed it to the state of Oregon to cooperate In the pres ervation of the beauty of the highway, He suggested that instead of putting vp Its own line or poles it should string its wires on the telephone company's poles under a common user agreement Under a common user agreement he said, Los . Angeles county bad eliminated 1000 un sightly poles, '' "Is there any reason," he asked Hamp- son, "why there could not be a common pole. Hampson replied that it was not prac to set its poles without obtaining the permission of Abe highway commission. "Under the. right given us by tne United States government to build on sny post road in th United States," re plied Hampson. "You do not possess the power to prevent You may only control by reasonable regulations." SUIT IS THHEATEJXD After learning that it was the attitude of th commission to keep the poles on until the courts forced them on, Hamp son indicated that suit would be brought if it were determined by the oompany good policy to do so. Chairman Booth or the commission was not present but if is understood that be is in full sympathy with the other two commissioners. A block of stste road bonds to the amount of 11,000,000 was sold by the commission to the highest bidder, Ralph Bchneelock. representing a syndicate, at premium of 15100, or at the rate of 11005.10 for every thousand.
