The electiou of a chief engineer
to have charge of the survey for
the proposed extension of the Med
lord logging railroad, a subsidiary
of the Owen-Oregon Lumber com
pariy, from Hutte Palls to a point,
in Klamath county near Klamath
Falls, will be made this week end
by James II. Owen, general man
ager of the Owen-Oregon company,
he said today. 1
IFa Bald the chief engineer to be
Belocted would have complete
charge of the work and that when
the survey crew would take the
field was a matter for his deci
sion. Mr. Owen said the object of the
purvey would be to determine if
a route to Klamath county, in a
southeasterly direction, was feas
bile and to secure figures on its
estimated cost. He reiterated that
the railroad was strictly an Owen
Oregon project, made necessary to
furnish a speedy outlet for their
own timber.
A topography map of the sec
tion will be made and the plan to
have pictures for thjs purpose tak
en by airplane has been abandoned
us impractical.
