"I have your letter of the 11th. dis

efforts to persuade the Government
to undertake the completion of the
railroad line between your city sad
the Willamette Valley.
"I feel that the Railroad Adminis

of the money provided we can get
the consent of tbe Directors of the
Southern Pacific Railroad Company.
"I have telegraphed you for data.,
and have asked If you desire me to
present the matter to the Chairman,
of the Board In New York.
"Klamath has been out of Oregon
too long, and I want to assist in.
bringing It back into the family.
"You have a wonderful country
and you need this line, so does the
Railroad company, and I have hopes
of getting some results.
"in any event I shall keep ham

But I sincerely hope that this result
will be obtained before- the end ot
my term, which Is six years."
