Wiw. lluit Ilin ih'IIIIiiiih sue In ill
iiilnlloii rciitll!iK tin' Cuunill to
mil :in eleiliou lo extend tin- city
limits, It Ii worth while that the tax
payer ot the city should look at the
facta an they exist, without preju
dice. Wo do not thlog there can I any
doubt that the question of extending
the city limits must be submitted to
the voter of the prnt city nd to
the territory proposed to be annexed,
and that a separate role must be
taken. Any attempt by the voter of
tho city to force additional territory
Into tho corporate limits, without
giving the tax payers of the new ter
ritory an opportunity to express their
preference In the matter would bo
un-American, unreasonable and un
just, and wo do not bellete that such
a proposition Is sound In law or In
equity, and could not be sustained
by any court.
Almost Immediately upon the
broaching ot the question by the city
council, the citlxen and tax payer
of the territory proposed tor annexa
tion, expressed themselves almost un
animously aicainst annexation, and
notified the council that they would
vote against such a proposition. That
being the case, what possible advan
tage could be gained by nn election?
The city treasury Is empty, and the
city 1 heavily In debt. An election
would cost money and apparently In
this case, would be a useless expendi
ture, a the result Is already known.
Why, therefore, go to the trouble and
expense and excitement Incident to
au election? No ono can deny that
the financial condition of tho city Is
unfortunate, but that la hardly a rea
son for attempting to force addition
al, and much of It unluiprott-d, ter
ritory into the city for tho purpose
of borrowing to pay the city's debt
and make Improvement. Why should
the property owner In the territory
adlolnlng the city bo asked lo have
their pioperty bonded for the pur
I wise ot paying the old city's debt?
What is offered or to be ottered In
exchange for this Incumbrance upon
their property? No citizen of Klam
ath Fall would think of asking his
neighbor to help him pay hi debt
or allow him to mortgage their prop
erty to raise money for hi benefit.
No more can the city of Klamath
Falls, In justice, ask the outlying
territory to assume part of Its Indebtedness.

John Temple Grates, the Indepen
dence parly's nominee for t Ice-president,
has Issued a signed statement
In which he replies to thu charge
made by Thomas K. Watson that tho
Independence party Is nw ned and con
trolled by W. It. Hearst. In part,
Mr. Grave says:
"It Is, to say tho least, ungracious
In Mr. Watson to speak of the Inde
pendence party as a one-man party.
He ha made of tho Populists far
more a one-man parly than the Inde
pendents ever hate been or ever will
be. Ho has been as many liint-H tint
defeated candidate of the Populists
a Mr. Ilryan has been of the Demo
crats. It seems lo be. by the official
records, the one man In it as abso
lute as Ilooscvclt, as dictatorial as
Bryan and as unsuccessful as tho
last. Ho prescribes Its tenets, dic
tates Its policies In things personal
and otherwise, and Is Invariably nam
ed as Its candidate."

In the digging ot Ibe Panama Ca
nal It has always been considered
that, outside ot the construction of
the big lock and dam work, the
chief difficulty to be encountered is
the great cut through the backbone
of the American continent at Cule
bra. The problem was there present
ed of removing a mountain and by
Ibe aid of modern steam shovels,
drill and dynamite the sojutlon la
being rapidly worked out. In fact,
according to Information which ha
reached tbe office of the Isthmian
Canal commission, over one-half of
tills great work has, now been com
pleted. '
Tbjs great cut through the hill
and mountain extend a distance of
nine and one-half miles. At the
highest point the original surface of
the ground was 300 feet and a hole
from 430 feet to 1000 feet.wlde and
110 feet -dp'i -Mag" dag 'there.
