"With the application of R, E. Strahorn for permit to build
143 miles of railroad in Lake, Klamath and Deschutes county,
the Southern Pacific, the Hill lines, the O. C. & E. or some
mighty power behind the throne will be forced to show their
band. Back of the beyond, the hand of an expert has been
seen - moving the chessman on the gigantic railroad chess
board of Central and Southern Oregon. The hand was seen
in the application by the penurious X: C. & O. for extension
north from Lakeview to Oclell. It was seen in the attempt to
bottle Klamath Falls by securing franchises for three spur lines
whose tentacles would embrace the entire city. And, it is now
seen in the application of the O.'C: & E. railroad for a permit
to build three extensions from the terminal at Sprague River,
at an estimated cost of $4,500,000. 1 .'
' The firm belief of railroad authorities was that the Southern
Pacific was behind the X. C. & O. movement to block the
Northern lines in their drive for the Klamath basin country.
The same belief prevails in the application of the O. C. & E.,
a railroad which from its: own earnings, is just as poverty
stricken as its sister line in Lake county.
Vrlt is a foregone conclusion that the interstate commerce com
mission will take no steps toward the granting of the applica
tion until the O. C. & E. railroad shows who- holds the purse
strings. The mere statement of Mr. Strahorn, that he has the
money will -not be sufficient to-the commission. 'They know.
'as do all of us, that somebody is producing the crisp green
backs for Mr.' Strahorn and in their attempt to be just in the
controversy between the northern lines and the S. P. they will
demand to know where the money- comes from. .. ' -,
'.'Thcn.wc all will know the identity of the fine hand that has
been moving the scenes on the railroad stage of the Klamath
country. .

LETTER
Ily HARRY B. HI NT
, XEA Service. Writer
WASHINGTON. March 28. Men
tlos has been made, In recent dis
patches from here of a "Borah bloc"'
In the United States Senate. Just
who the members of this bloc are,
however, aid by what characteris
tics they can be Identified, have
rat been made plain.
The fact Is, of course, that the
term "Borah bloc"' has been used
simply as a handy tag to tie to the
group of independently-minded Re
publicans who have declined .to per
mit themselves to be bound by their
party's caucus, and who claim the
right , to vote their own. views on
public questtons regardless of what
party "leaders" proclaim to be their
auty. .
.To this number might, properly,
ba. added those members recently
ousted from G. O. P." party councils,
on charges of Irregularity. 1
' Borah was their champion In the
hour of their chastisement. His
Insurgency is no less real. If more
discreet, than was theirs. They will
fight with him and for him. en bloc
or independently, ' as occasion re
quires. Whether- properly labeled as
"bloc" or not, and whether fairly
grouped under a Borah banner,
there no longer remains any doubt
but that there Ja in the new Senate
an insurgent group that can make
itself felt effectively. . ; '
This group has now been pic
turesquely named "the backbone of
the Sinate." '.' '
, Before one qualifies for member
ship he must have proven the stiff
ness of his backbone ny standing up,
unwaveringly, , under tho load of
public criticism, social ostracism
and partisan abuse resulting from
voting his Individual opinion against
his party's mandate.
. Borah .. himself says there ' Is a
dearth of stiff backbones In Wash
ington. ' Particularly la. the Senate.
"It Is mnch easier In Washing
ton." says Borah, "to go along than
It is to disagree. If there is any
atmosphere , in God's world that
weakens a man's backbone, It Is the
atmosphere of Washington. The
process Is constant and drastic."
Just why senatorial' insurgents
should be described at this time as
,'tho Borah bloc" is not apparent.
The most likely guess is that the
name was designated in an effort to
discredit the Influence and prestige
of Borah.,
ny'gettlng before the country a
picture of him as loading a "bloc,"
an undertaking to organize a group
which he could lead in opposition
to tho president or to his party's
leadership in the 8enate, It may be
hoped to minimize the force and
effect of his later opposition to cer
tain projected party policies.
But accepting the tag of "Borah
bloc" s one that will be much used
to describa tho Insurgent Republi
can group,; It' should bo recognized
that the., bloc was formed around
Ilonili, as tho most effective cham
pion M its more important prin
ciples, rather than having been form
ed by Borah ns n club with, which
to pound his opponents.
Poiscr.ally, Borah contlr.uos to
play, ns ho always has a "lone
hand." Otliui's can wm along If
they wish, and welcome. Hut' lie
doesn't cliango his piny In order to
jri.'ii;e room for fturu.". " ,
