HILL LINE PLANS
FOR COAST BASE
Reports of 11111 line activity, to
reach the north coast of California
by a Hue down the tlamath river
from Klamath Falls, has brought
forth the usual spring rumors of
rail activity in southern Oregon,
duly chronicled in the Portland
JtAirnal of recent date, as Buch.
The article conjectures that the
Southern Pacific, as a counter
move, might extend tut present
terminus from Powers. Ore., to
Kureka, Cal., to connect with the
Northwestern railroad, or, as the
article notes, "some say. from
Grants Pasa to Crescent City, then
down the coast to Eureka."
The article further says:
; The Hill lines, It may be re- .
. called, spent. some $2,500,000
some kyars ago in develop -
.'.roents In and around Klamath

A telegram to A. S. V. Carpen-'
tor of the Fruitgrowers' league,
said that the western division of
tho irrigation 'bureau had been In

a small corps of assistants. Prof.
F. C. Kelmer of tho Southern Ore

The drainage survey is sought
for the purpose of determining the
drift of tho, seepage water, and
how to keep it on the move. The
drainage problem has not become
a serious problem in this section,
and the survey wilt show how to
keep it from becoming one. Even
distribution of irrigation water
wil also be dealt witjh, by the
survey.
Quick action was obtained on
the request for a drainage sur
vey. It wna about a month ago
that the matter was first presented
