EXTENSION FROM
BEND TO KLAMATH
SEEMS
PORTLAND, March 6
teems more than idle talk,
the Hill line " planning an extension south from
Bend to Klamath Falli, opening up the rich Klamath
buin to rail iyitemi centering at St Paul, ayt the
Oregonian today.
Confirmation of the reported project was impos
sible, aa officials hero were most guarded in their state
mcnU. Quite naturally, as waa to be expected before de
finite announcement la ready, they routed the prob
ability of uuch construction, although the presence In
the city of oulsicle officlala, and a omevhat niy.iUr
lous conference at headquarters office of the Spokane,
Portland and Seattle railroad, parent line of the Ore
gon trunk, seemed to lend color to the rumor.
"Not more than ten dava aco" m the Ore-jonian,
"M. J. Co.stello, of Scuttle, WCHtern traffic munu-MT f ir
the Great Northern, competed a traffic survey i f tlie
territory between Bend and Klamath Falls. Ho wis
accompanied by a number of engineers of the system.
.What hla findings were or what hi it-port will be, is
of courae not known here aa vcL
"The Hill nvatcm in 1910 laid down u uney of the
route presumably to be followed by an extension from
Bend. Whilo there was a well considered survey, prac
ticable throughout Its length, from Bend to Klamath
Pills, there was roconnoissanco much farther south that
reached to MaryaviUe, Cal. This was, of course, made in
expectation of carrying out the well known plana of
James J. Hill to carry the Hill system to San r rancisco
bay. ,
"It waa said yesterday that dream of the great em
pire builder waa to be revived, and that the line to Kla
math Falls will mean the first step in a consistent plan
to reach far down into California, whereby Hill roads
will command all the chief ports of the Pacific Coast."
