Out Information for Publication and All Ask That Xothlnx Be 1 There is an Indefinable rumor trav elling thruout the business district of the city today that may have be hind it more potent influences on tho future development of the city than. anvthing that has been brought to . . j,,,m,tl, -. ,. years. The very elusiveness of the story and the apparent impossibility , and mystery surrounding It. gives 1 one the Impression that there is real ' ly something back of It, and that when the full facts are brought out it will reveal the plan for another railroad. It has its origin in the fact that quite recently there started a buying of Main street property, together with the taking of options on va cant lots along this thoroughfare. All of these transactions hare been carried on with the positive injunc tion upon those Identified with them that absolute secrecy must me main tained, and so well have these in structions been followed that noth ing of a tangible nature has been di vulged. But like all things of tha kind, there is sure to be a leak. andt. the first one made Its appearance? yesterday afternoon and it Is grow ing in importance today, until the whole things is coupled up with the construction of a railroad from this city to Eureka, California, down th Klamath river. This is not the first time such a project has been considered. Ephe I m era I as it may seem, such a line jvould open up one of the richest meral as it may seem, such a line territories on the Coast. It is the most feasible line that could be built to tidewater from the interior. It is not a new thing, for such a line was surveyed years ago by H. V. Gates, former owner of the light and water plant of this city, and one ot the ablest engineers the west has ever known. The result of his labors which were performed for one of ths b 1 g transcontinental companies, showed that a line down the Klamath river could be constructed on a one per cent grade and would open up one of tho biggest undeveloped tim ber b,elts on the Coast. This timber Is owned by tho government and will be sold to any concern construct ing such a line on terms and under Mich conditions as to make the in vestment a most profitable one. The Inn easing demand for timber and tho great future looming for the lumber market is sure to draw tho attention of the big timber people In the diiection ot the Klamath rlvor project, and it may be that this has already been done and accounts for the rumojed activity In business property, for such a line would cer tainly make of Klamath Falls a real Spokane.
