REFUSE 10 OPEN LAND TO ENTRY Homesteaders Lose in the Fipjit for Their Homes Along the Shores of Lake Klamath All Their Work Goes for Naunht. WANTED TO RENT ANY -OLD HOUSE In Spito of Vast Amount of Buildiny in Mcdford, Supply Can in No Way Equal the Demand Houses Rent ed Lonfi Before Completed. A In spite of the fuel that Mcdford bus done nioru "huildiug iIutniK tht pusl year than ever before in her hixlory, not alone in the erection ol hiiMiiCRS blocks, but also in dwelling houses, it is almost impossible foi a person to find a houee to rent in the city. Kvcry day one can meet a score of person- on the trail ol biiitable houses to rent, and night, after a day spent on stteh a ipiest, generally brings no result but fa tigue. Many of the new houses erected in Mcdford last bitmmer were for the bide purpose of investment. Ami id Mjoiea of instances the houses weic engaged before the foundations hail been laid. Today there is searcolj a hoiiM! to be bud. The uewcomei ir forced to spend weeks in over crowded hoarding houses befoie he ciin seVtre what he needs. 'I'll (ire if. a demand in Medfoid for any eharautor of huildiug, from 'i two-room shack to u ten-room motr tint residence. No sooner is one of feted than it is taken. As an instance of the eiigpritow with which hoiice are taken, the ex perience of Dr. J-J, II. 1'ortor is in point, lie started the erection of a robiilciice on .South Onkdale. No boouer was the foundation in than applications heguu ,to pile up, and before a single stick of timber win in place the dwelling iva rented. REVOLT THREATENS NEW REPUBLIC KLAMATH t'AliliS, Nov. 30; According to a letter received heio, those who hnvo petitioned the federal government to eliminate several sec tions of laud on the west side of Upper Klamnth lake from the Crater Lake forest reserve have hdeu turn ed down in their application and have made their improvements for naught. Five or six homesteaders have gonu into Ijie Crystal and Hccren lion creek locality and erected com fortable homes ami improved the land. Lust year they started in to tret this set iimiIc for homesteaders, on tho mound that considerable of this land was agricultural, and a pe tition was forwarded to the secre tary of the interior. They even put the matter before the president in a lengthy communication. The terri tory concerned borders the lake lor about seven miles in length and n half mile wide While some of those locating thcie built iiuito expensive homes nml nityle other improve iheiits, IS. St. George liishop erected an eight-room houhc at a cost ot more than .$3000 and has made mnny other substantial improve ments. During the past summer several who regarded this territory as excel lent .recreation, fishing and camping grounds circulated petitions all over Klamath and Jackson counties ask ing that the government would not eliminate this territory from the na tional forest. These petitions were igned by some 3300 people and then forwarded to M. L. Kriekson, super intendent of the forest service for (his district. In turn, he forwarded this to Associate District Forestei George H. Cecil at Portland, with the statement that he had inve&tigut cd tho matter thoroughly and recom mending that the laud not be with drawn troiu tlie reseivo. Juesc were all then in turn forwarded to the secretary of the interior and secre tary ol agriculture, ami were then sent back to AsMieiatu District loiv ester Lecil, wlio writes in part as follows: "I am Kind to say that upon a re port made by me the secretary ol agriculture has found that the laud is of such a character as to warrant it retention in the forest. No elim ination is therefore contemplated. "The petition was returned to the lore-it service, whore it has been fil ed for consideration, in the event application is ever made to have the land eliminated, and tho secretary, in his' letter, gives assurance that it will always bo carefully borne in mind, to tlie end that the land may be put to it highest use. lie fur ther direct., that in (he transaction of all national forest business the value of the tract for recreation purposes will ho given duo weight, and it special effort mado to retain it in its highest state ot efficiemy to serve that cud." This would apparently elinynnlc nil possible chance of any of those seeking to homestead this hind evei being able to do so.
