JOINS MINES WIN LUMBERMEN WANT BOTH RAIL LINES Timber Kings To Operate If Access Offered Both Northern and Southern Markets. Portland, Oct. 7 (AP) John P. Stevens, for eight years chief J engineer of the Great Northern railroad and for a time chief en gineer of the Panama canal, wan a witness for the Northern lines in the Klamath Falls rail hearing today. Stevens- was chief engineer and later president of the Hill rail roads that Included the Spokane, Portland and Seattle, the Oregon Trunk, Oregon Electric and Unit.. ed It nil ways. He stated before Charles Mnhaffie, representing the interstate commerce commission in the application of the Oregon Trunk to build from Bend to Klam ath Falls, that James J. Hill In tended to build to Klamath Falls when he started the line up the Deschutes river valley. The famous engineer declared that tn 1909, Hill cabled him In to tell of the proposed new road in Oregon. 'I want to get Into southern and central Oregon with a first class railroad," Hill was quoted as tell ing Stevens. "I don't mean a log ging road, but a real, first class railroad." Stevens said he told his chief that the only way to do this waa to build up the Deschutes river Hill replied that bo wished to tup the rich timber country in central and southern Oregon to get that business for bin lines. "The general plnn Mr. Hill had was to build up through the Pes chutes valley and to extend on Into Klamath Fall?, the details being left to me," Steens said. "The ma jor object of this road was to get the timber business the next to develop the cohntry." George S. Lonfr, vice-president and general manager of the Wey erhaeuser Timber company after detailing at length the interests of bis company in the Klamath ba:in where he faifl lie was anxious to begin operations, was crnnn exam ined by lien C. Uey, Southern Pa cific attorney yesterday afternoon Mr. Dey propounded the assump tion that If car supply were ade quale and his markets wore reach; ed satisfactorily over the South ern Tacific by the Portland gate way, with but 50 miles longer haul i would not that reconcile Mr. Long' to doing business on the Southern Pacific alone? "f am not doing business on as. sumptions," was the reply, "if I enn get realities. I am not satis fied with assumptions; you can not satisfy me because you are not sure yourself. If tho Oregon Trunk build?, we will have our mill ready by the time the railroad gets there. If tho Southern Pacific lines alone are built, I cannot sny when we will start mill opera tions, certainly not until every means shall have been exhausted to get the other line." Ii)iig I'pou Stand On direct testimony Mr. Look gave some history concerning early activities In the Klamath region. He said ho bought timber there ns far bnck os 1905. A small mill on the Klamath river, togother with a lOKglng road running up toward Klamath Falls, was purchased. Mr. Long said he tried to sell the rood to E. E. Calvin, then vice president and general manager of the Southern Pacific. Mr. Calvin told him then the plans nf Mr. Hnrrlman for a road from Eugene across the Cascades to Klamath Falls. He told him also It was confidential Information and he was not to divulge it. He said, too, Mr. Harrison, although a Wall 8trett operator, had a re markable sense of practical econo mica of rallrondlng and that a route across the state from On tario to Odell would be buitt by the Union Pacific to connect with the projected Southern Pacific road at Odell. Ilnrrlmnn' Promlrs "Me told me not to tell this and now I have gone and done It," said Mr. Long.

The proposition wan tentatively considered by the students at this afternoon's meeting, and definite ly formed pinna will be got under way this week Each roll room, or first period room, will organize and select a leader for the boys and another for the girls, If the suggested plan is carried into effect. The girl and boy leaders so chosen, called min ute men, will have an organiza tion of their own, patterned much after the Knights of the Hook at the University of Washington, and corresponding organizations, the Beaver Knights at O. A. C, the Oregon Knights at Eugene and the Cubs at Willamette. Every student in school would belong to an organization, there being as many clubs as there arc roll rooms. There are now 42 roll rooms In the high school. A need Is felt for some sort of organizations In the school, Biiioul authorities declare, the present tendency, due lo the abolishment of secret societies, being for n slackening up of school spirit. It in believed thnt the formation of new clubs along the tines indi cated will fill the need more ef fectively than tho former clubs filled it, every student belonging somewhere under the new system. It is further believed that tho new clubs will eliminate any possible desire on the part of the students to revive Hie old societies. TO BE REPLACED AVa.shlngton, Oct. 7. Hear Ad miral William A.
