TRYING TO FOOL THE PEOPLE - .
Just to show you that the California. Ooregon Power com
pany never sleeps,, we want ; j:d;;callv-yQur.at.tentioa. to .the
rumpus over '.the-., construction ..of; the Rock i Creek bridge
.' across Link V river. '-.'.The company,', has "magnanimously"
stated that it would not force the construction of the bridge,
even, though it owned more than half the property that would
be included in an improvement district, unless -more than
one half of all the other property affected would signify
willingness that the work proceed. ' It seeks, to take the
position of being forced into the district; of being the big
brother, by assuming a willingness to assume most of the
burden; and manifesting a degree of injured feelings.' .
Now, the whole thing is just plain bunk. The original
plan was to build the bridge just above the Link river dam.
That did not suit the scheme of the Power company. It
wanted the bridge below the dam, and so placed as to -further'
blockade the Link river canyon. Of course, it-got what it
wanted, like it always does. To fully cover up its trickery,
it now conies out with its holier than thou twaddle about
helping , to finance the construction of the bridge.
. Back of the whole; proposition is the contract authorizing
the construction Of the : Link river dam. That contract was
for fifty , years.i ' Under the law the Reclamation Service had
no authority to niake a contract beyond ten years.: The Power
company .knows this and is living in fear and 'trembling that
; one of these ;day's it,will have to surrender ors control of the
dam and that then the Irrigation district will want "to entei
the; power field.', uf it, can buy up all the 'land available : for.
power sites, as Well as to place in the canyon such, bbstruc-
tions as the bridge, railroad tracks,; and the like, it will make
it practically impossible, for., the 'District to develop any power
at that goint and the ownership of the dam will be worthless
and the developm'ent of power made an impossibility. This
lalk about objecting to an , improvement district is simply a
smoke screen to divert attention from the real purpose and
make it appear that the public, is having its way in compelling
tne .rower company to help pay, for the bridge.
'As a rule the public is-easily fooled, but this is one time
when the California Oregon Power company can "slip it . over."
