STRAHORN SAYS WHAT
-MUST BE DONE.

Klnmntli I-'hHm Applies Directly

cord Must Not Dctclop.
Before rcturnlriR to Portland from
Xlamntli KnllB, Itobert E. Strahorn
Kiivo an Intorvlow. reported In tho
Klamath Hornld, stating nRaln Ills
position with reference to tho or
ganization, engineering, rights-of-way,
financing and construction de
tails of tho O. 0. & K. As his re
marks apply as directly to Ilend iib
to Klamath Kalis, the Intervvlew Is
re-produced hero as folllows:
"As I staled In tho beginning and
lmvo many times hIiico, my part Is to
organlzo tho work, provldo tho en
.ri.ww.rinr. wiilc.li latter has been done
ut tho cost of many thousands of
dollars; secure tho co-operation of
the various Interior communities,
Portland mid largu Interests to bo
wtfectcd, secure tho rights-of-way
over government reservations or oth
er public lands, nnd then finally to
Hecuro seventy-five per cent of tho
capital necessary to complete con
struction and equipment of tho lines.
"This heavier flnniiclng, ob I havo
repeatedly stated publicly, Is to he
based absolutely and entirely upon
tho communities and Interests ef
fected, furnishing freo right-of-way,
station grounds and terminals, nnd
nil necessary franchises over city or
vountry roads, and cash to tho
amount of twenty-flvo per cent of
the totnl cost of construction and
iUulpraant. All such rights-of-way,
'terminals nnd other property, cash
nnd franchises, and any surveys, and
nil tho other money and effort I am
putting Into tho enterprlsu will ho
UHed as security upon which I will
proceed to rnlso tho ncvonty-flvo per
vent of monoy needod from outside.
Thin will bo done by bonding (mort
gaging) all these assets, which we
nil together contribute, as Is always
done In railway financing, nnd my
securing a market for the bonds.
"There Is no other way, to my
knowledge, by which tho 11111110118"
necessary to construct and eijulp the
railway 8Hlni can be obtained, mid
anyone of ordinary business exper
ience knows how difficult It Is to ob
tain capital under present conditions
ifor such purpose even with full com
.plhiucu with the ahovo conditions.
It Is therefore apparent that my
luinds nro tied and further progress
1s impossible until all this assistance
Is placed In tangible or definite form
for the bankers to pass upon, just as
would ho the case whom any money
lender Is considering u lean to an In
dividual. "Tho responsibility for delay In
commencing construction therefore
now renin with you people alone. I
am pledged to go to work tho mo
ment you place mo In possession of
what you havo agreed to give, and l
will keep the pledge. My lawyeis,
your city attorney, and the moud
house lawyois have agreed on how
the elty must proceed. The program
thus laid down should be followed to
the letter or you court defeat The
general lallway committee and the
community are fully advised of what
Is necessary. If Klamath Falls Is us
united and determined to sco this
great work consummated, as tho re
cont vote Indicated, It can put over
Its part In a month. Hut I would es
pecially urge everyone to not only
do his or her full duty, hut to
see to It that no small-side reverses,
selfish Interests, or outsldo ulterior
Influences arc permitted to cloud the
main question. These arc bound to
bob up to ambarrass and delay In
ovory great big worth-while under
taking. "Uncollect the first section out of
Klamath Falls must bo built as a
municipal railroad, utilizing your
s.inn.nno ns far as It wll go, and so
far as my arrangement with the city
for further construction Is concerned,
that Is the last thing which can bo
inr-illv mnnnmmated. There nro n
number of Important details which
must come, first and If I nm to build
tho road theso must bo done In tho
order and In tho manner submitted
to your committees nnd to tho city
council. Otherwise thero enn bo no
road built, because we can neither
raise the money on tho city bonds
nor on the railroad bonds I must Is
sue This, of courso, refers not only
to offlcinl action by tho council, but
to tho completion of the rights-of-way
nnd terminal work also.
"Timlin tinrtlllL- IlllutlCtlollS should
not be tnken ns a nolo of complaint.
Tho splendid progress mado by your
nrnirrpnilvi! nlld DUbllc-snlrltcd 111011
and women In recent weeks fills mo
with admiration and nerves me ror
the final hard task. Hut having been
in am.!! ulitiiitlniiH ever since boy
hood. I know how very few ngrcs
slvo, discordant elements, who, olthcr
from lack of experience or n natural
tendency to retard or embarrass, be
cause some personal interest is not
subserved, can undo or defeat the
work of a whole community of right
minded pooplo unless tho latter nro
unceasingly vigilant and everlasting

Methode of Fire Proventlon Should De
Studied In Every Home.
In bygone days tho function of tho
chief of n tire department was merely
to put out Hies. Nowadays his duty
Is to prevent them.
Orlgluully a llreuinii's work was de
fetish e. Now It Is also offensive. It
attucks tho cause.
Most tires are preventuble. Individ
ual carelessness Is tho chief cause.
IMucatlon of the public even involv
ing punitive ineusuies is the remedy.
Tho simplest method of getting rid
of Hies is llrst to get rid of things that
burn. "Cleanup days" nre uo novelty.
They hav undoubtedly reduced tho
tiro loss ratio, but tho very fact that
theru is need of an annual cleanup is
proof thut the public has not yet been
rightly educated. Once a year Is pot
often Yuough to wash the public's face
or to brush Its teeth nnd clean out its
ears. Tills should be u dully task.
Waste, rubbish and combustibles
should not be allowed to accumulate.
Tho public education must go fur
ther. It should be carried into the
home nnd should begin with the child.
A pcrlodluil lecture or talk given nt
Ivast once a mooiith In the public
schools by a llrcmnti In uniform would
strike at the very loot of the tire prob
lem. An ollleltil In uniform nlwnyo Im
presses a child, and his remarks nnd
directions would tuny the weight of
authuilty. These lectures If Illustrat
ed by charts uud diagrams would be
more effective and would graphically
present to the child mind not only tho
dangers of lire, 'but tho methods of
prevention and quick extinguishment.
In some cities Juvenile ollce depart
ments have been established with vn
rled success, hut a Juvenile flic depart
ment, whether organized or merely ex
isting In the educational e lulpiuent of
children to prevent and extinguish
tires, would be one of the most nd
viinced steps taken toward the con
servation of human life and property.
