"The Best Place to Trade"
Mr. Ilarrlman was In Klamath
county for two or three weeks lust
summer und gae tho residents of
Wood river valley a thoioughbred
stallion and keeps It, for tho better
ment of the homo flesh ot that sec
tion, therefore, why la ho a stranger
within our gates, uh the "Morning
Express" heads Its Sunday artlclo of
welcome (?).
In a country which owes so much
to Mr. K. II. Harrlmuu as Klamath
county, most any kind ot u white man
would think he wero entitled to that
beat of all hospitality to bo left
alone, to bo allowed to como to his
own prlatu properly, which ho hus
done so much to Improve for his own
pleiiHiiro and that ot hla friends, when
It has beeu heralded from one end
of the country to Iho other, that ho
wuh out for a season ot rest and re
creation, and that of all places on
earth ho had selected Klamath coun
ty for this purpose advertisement
enough lo satisfy moat localities.
Hut no, ho muHt be met ut the wharf
by u lot of people he does not know,
after a hot, tlresomo trip by rail,
stage and boat, and must bo asked
to alt upon a platform, In tho early
part of a hot afternoon, listen to a
few speeches and bo asked to make
one himself, wbloh by the way he did
In his usual way, and handed the
county their earnings of a few hot
ones, just as readily as our honorad
President has had his.
Now besides this, he has had to
put up with the affront of newspaper
articles of welcome, which no well
minded person would us lu welcom
ing a convict. In what way would
the editor of the "Morning Express"
appreciate a wslcome about like this.
which la not dissimilar from hls.whon
he should happen to return to his old
home, souiewhcro down San Quentln
wuy, "W'hun tho train canto to a
pause, u small, slender, long-haired,
sallow, dyspeptic und tin-bespectacled
gentlemen hopped off, and anyone not
knowing tho Kcutlemaii would scarce
I) Imagine that the smull quiet man
was tho famous ed'tor ot the Klam
Fulla 'Express' ".
For delicacy and the glad hand tho
editor of tho "KxptesV and tho
Chambor of Common o would tuko
the boohy prize any w hero on eaith. t
Now that )ou hne done so well,!
I suppose )ou ure only watting for,
tho railroad lo got to Klamath Falls ,
In order to recommend "soaking" It
tho limit In order to nil so sulllclent
tax to build those roads Mr.Ilurrlmau
told us wo needed.
Ilnu'evoi-. Mr. lluirlmun need not
bo concerned, for this was tho same
welcome accorded (he Klamath Cunnl ,
Company, which came, hero to put In j
an litigation canal after no had tried ,
for (11 tit' n or twenty yearn to get
Bonie otto to do It, utid through this
same coterie ot editor nnd others,
they were obliged to abandon tho
piojecl nnd turn It over to tho gov
ernment, which began soon after lo
see u grout light out this way
This compntn proposed to put In
the canal and In ten years turn It
over tu tlm water users for fifteen
dollars per acio. Ah tho government
canal will coit two or three times
this amount, uuyoue can nee what a
great benefactor has come Into this
county to mold public opinion.
For the average cltUeu of Klamath
county, I think someone Is entitled
to extend tp Mr, Harrlman a decent
If you happen to go to a store after
7 o'clock tonight and find It closed
don't swear, but Just remember that
the merchants and their employees
are getting a well earned rest. To
day Is tho first day that the early
closing movement Is gencraly In ef
fect und It you arc In need ot any
thing for jour breakfast get It before
the clock strikes seven.
E. II. Harrlman Is enjoying the
beautiful scenery, the fresh air and
the cooling shade at Pelican Bay.
Ho arrived there Saturday night af
ter a very pleasant trip op the lake
and has established himself In hla pa
latial summer home. Much ot his
time la taken up In attending to bua
lnet matters that come over the wire
for he I kept In touch with all tho
Important affairs ot thenatton. What
ever business demand hi attention
I transacted over the wire and the
operator are kept quite busy receiv
ing and despatching message.
Mr. Harrlman' two sons, Averall
and Roland, accompanied by tho
guide, left the lodge thla morning
on a hunting trip of a few days. They
are going back Into the mountains
In search ot deer and bear. 'It I not
knowa whether Mr. .Harrlman will go
out on any lengthy hunting excur
sion. HU time la occupied In busi
ness matters to such an extent that
It may be Impossible for him to go
on any extended trips. It Is, so far
as can be learned, his Intention to
go on some ot the short trips with
his boys and the guides.
The ladles belonging to the Harrl
man party will arrive here tomorrow
evening and will be taken to the
lodge on the following day. It Is not
known how long the distinguished
party will tarry In this section but it
Is understood that Mr. Harrlman will
remain at least two weeks.
