Ooiitlomon: DurltiK my lHt visit nt llitud, March 10, 1917, In ri'xpotmo to rciiicHttt its to what wun iii.'oiIimI to iiMBUrt! NturtltiK con struction on our Cutitrnl Oregon rail way project from Himil this season, I m ii iId thu following proposition: "That If lleiiil would promptly rompluttt tint right of wity work as itlKiiert to It and furnish $100,000, 1 would hulltl 20 mllus of thn systum southward from tliero this year uml ntiothnr 20 miles next year, thin In volvliiR an ftxpeudlturu of about 1800,000. Further, that I hoped and hcllarrd I would then bo In tiondl- tlon to go rlnht nlotiR with construc tion until a linn was completed eith er to Klamath Falls or to Harney Valley. "I also reminded thoso presunt at thn nicotinic that I was consistently following our original undurstandlnR as set forth In our railroad conven tion and banquet at Hond In Novem ber, 101C, and on numerous occiw lons since, that If the communities and Interests who were to chiefly benefit by this KN'at development In Central Oregon would furnish tht t'irinlnals uml rights of way and 26 pur tent of the cost of construction and equipment, I would undertake to raise the other 7fi pur cent of the cash necessary, besides doing the en gineering, organization and oil other work. "I suggested at the meeting of last March that 1100,000 was my esti mate of Ilcnd's rightful proportion of the 25 per cent subscription need ed from Central Oregon interests. Also, that this was not, llko the ter minals and right of way, to be do nated, but that Iiund would receive Its rqulvalcnt In such securities or such pro ruta Interest In the railway us the city could legally accept, and still leuve me free to use all the as sets us a basis for the bond issue from which I expected to secure thn 76 per ejt of cash I would under take to raise. "While thus responding to Demi's request for u proposition, I also took mjiw lul pulus to impress those pres ent with the fart that I was not then urging nor would I even advise this course ut this time. That It was a questlun of policy for the city to de ride whether It should now complete Its part of thu financing of the under taking which it haw always been understood It would at a proper time do. "Two months have expired with out action upon the part of Bund, duu I understand, to some differences between citizens or local Interests as to thu wisdom of the move. lift ing unwilling to have any part In or responsibility for any serious con troversy which might provoke strife nnd possibly Imperil the prosperity VERNON A.
