In Spito of Vast Amount of Buildiny

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.
