plans It will take three jears to com
plete the work,
Mr, Strahorn and Mrs. Strahorn,
returned Wednesday evening from a
3,000 mile trip In their automobile,
In which they visited not only tho
ntlro route of the railroad, but made
many nlilo trips Into tributary coun
try, going luto the Surprise valley
district of northern Ciillforuti and
Nevada.
The road which Mr. Strahorn and
associates will build Ih Incorporated
uh the Oregon, California & KiiHtern
Hallway company. It Ih the blggeHt
railroad project of the northwest
since the H.. I. & S., Milwaukee and
North Count roads were built In
Washington. I'ortland capitalists are
reiorted to be behind Mr Htrnhorn
In the enterprise.
Meet Many Ovations,
Mr. nnd Mrs. .Strahorn left Spokane
July 11 and have been noarly two
months making the trip, Not only
do they report the entho Journey
moHt pleasant and cluvold of acci
dent, but It wiih almost a coutlnuouH
ovation tendered by communltlcH an
xIoiib for tho development Mr Stra
horn Ih trying to furnlHh them,
through Wlnnemucca, and with the
branch of the Southern Pacific which
runs Into northern California nnd af
fords direct lines west to San Fran
cisco and to all polntB east. This
would make the entire system GOO
miles long.
"Although wo were may nearly
two months, traveling nost of tho
time, wo were only in tho ral one
day," said Mr. Strahorn. "Tho roads
were fairly good all tho way with ex
ception of portions of tho Pacific
Highway between Medford and Hu
ge no and" about 100 miles of the last
lap, which was through the Dig Ilcnd
whero farmers had been hauling
grain, and the roads were cut up
and dusty. Hut contemplation of
those magnificent crops of $1.25
grain was well worth the hardship,
"This Central Oregon country -that
will bo served by the new road has
wonderful resources and possibili
ties," continued Mr. Strahorn, "Trlb-
utary to our lines aro 3,000,000,000
feet of white pine, with numerous
lumber mills already there and need
ing such a system to provide them
with transportation facilities.
"There are vast areas of the fln-l
est stock ranges In the world nnd
some millions of acres of splendid
dry farming lands; about 1,000,000
acres of Irrigable land, of which
about half already Ih Irrigated, and
fiOO.000 acres of rich marsh lands
which are being drained. All grains
and farm products that grow in
Washington arc rnlsed there,
ttoltl AhiiIIn l'i ospoctor.
"Around I'alsley and l,nkevlew
there are rich gold districts awaiting
the prospector and men who will de
velop thorn. There arc also splendid
copper deposits,
"In this dlstrlrt there Ik a larger
section of natural hay lands than any
other place west of the Missouri, I
bellewi. There is one liny meadow
in tho llnrney country of 100,000
acres. It Is owned by tho Swifts of
Chicago and Corbels of I'ortland.
There are many other large holdings
of natural hay lands In the Warner
and Summer lake valleys and In the
Klamath country."

Split nro Gencroiw.
(Oregon Journal.)
KLAMATH FALLS, Sept. 14,
Hlght of wny for tho proposed Stra
horn railway from Klamath Falls to
Bend is being rapidly and easily se
cured, according to Attorney W. S.
Wiley. Hert Wlthrow and It. E.
Hradbury, who compose the right of
wr.y committee at this end of tho
line.
Owners of small tracts whose
places are seriously split up by the
proposed road and who might very
reasonably be expected to ask some
compensation, have given tho title
with a. readiness that is surprising.
It Is now believed that the route from
Klamath Falls to Spraguo river, 30
miles northeast, will bo arranged by
the time the Klamath Falls bond
election is over so that construction
on the road can commence this fall.
