. "Only with your co-opnrntlon,
gentlemen, In tho promoting and con
btrnctlon of tho Silver Lake Irrigation
project, and similar enterprises, in
ducements for the settler and devel
opment of this region, will the rnll
rond project, of which I havo tho hon
or of being nt tho head, ever bo built
through this portion of Central Ore
gon, Without this necessary co-op-jk
oration it will not even start, for re
" membebr all of this preliminary work
Is being dono nt my personal o.xpoimo.
With tho many lavish promises you
hnvo made to mo. which ou will bo.
given nn opportunity to make good,
there Is no reason 'ahy this valley
will not be the, oasis between Ilcnd
and I.nkevlow, n'nd Silver Lako a city
of 1.000 or 5,000 population within
four or five years. And this will
mean many civic problems for Silver
ijike to meet and solvo soon, tho
principle ones. It seems to mo, being

nlll sco by this blueprint I hold In
my hand, wo hnvo placed the torm
inal grounds for the depot, awltch
) nnls, round house and stockynrds In
tho northonst outsklits of tho town.
We arc asking for a right of wny
seven eighths of a mllo in length nnd
2C0 feet In width en tho edge of Sil
ver Lake. Think of this, too wo
don't want to pny, taxes on n foot of
ground moro than wo nctualiy use,
and tho moro land wo ask you to
lUurn over to ua thnt much moro It
means to your town. Ucfofo I leavo
hero I will hand over to your Com
mercial Club blank deeds which I
want to bo used in securing n right
of wny first, toSllver Lnko proper,
second to Slcan Marsh and third to
Fort Rock valley summit. This means
n 12 or 15 mile right of wny for you
to get In tho three different direc
tions. Let mo again Impress upon
vou the. Importance of your co-operation.
Willi It wo will succeed And
then ngaln. In n way, my reputation
. Is at stake for upon my merely stnt-
Ing there l'n possibility of tho road
Helng built, one wealthy corporation

and startedan enterprise Involving

are many other good things headed
