CAREY TELLS OE
HILL PLANS FOR
CENTRAL OREGON
General Counsel for Rail
road Talks at Chamber
of Commerce
TWO ROUTES WANTED
Local Terminal Facilities
Will be Second to None
He Asserts
Judge ( barlea II. Carey, general
counsol for tho Hill lines, stood bu
roro a group of represeulatlvo busi
ness men and farmers of Klamath
county at tho chamber or commerce
thin morning and outlined in a gen
eral way the nsjilrntions and ob
Jurtlvea or the Hill lino system in
building Into Klamath.
.While deploring his Inability lo
lay any new angle before Die busi
ness men, horjliseusscd generally tho
problems of the Hill lines In build
ing into Klumnth Falls as they have
developed to date.
Judge Carey told what the Inter
sjato commerco commission would
want to know concerning Hie con
struction und whnt the Hill Hues
would havu to prove In support of
tliolr nppllcntlon tor a corliricate or
public convenience and necessity.
"W.i di.Klre in bnlld two roads
, r,1..ll l,.l Klnnmlli" .Indue
Carey nald. and then proceeded to
brletly outline the general routes
that the lines would take.
Tonnage .Musi He Shown
"Tho Interstate commerco com
mission will have to be shown where
such construction would be Justified
by potential tonnage of tho terri
tory; In other words wo will huvo
to prove to them that the construc
tion of the two lines will Induce
lumber development that will mip:
port uuotlier railroad. Wo must
show thul tho Investment will not
rosult In wauled capital.
"Now. In this connection, wo want
all tho assistance of civic clubs und
of the public In general in aiding
us in building to; Klamath Kails. We
Jiopo that these organizations will
adopt resolutions indorsing , our
move to Klumnth, of rourso taking
It Tor grunted that tho public in
general Is desirous or a competitive
road.
Future Is Question
"Concerning tho future, thoro Is
llttla I enn say. The tlmo will come
If llio Interstate commerco commis
sion acts upon our case favorably,
when wn will need facilities In tho
city of Klamuth Falls. Thcso tur
miiinl facilities will be second to
nono In Ibis city nnd will bo a credit
to tho great railroad system they
would represent. But 1 urn sorry
to any that I can any nothing of
litis iiiirIo as yet, principally be
causo I do not know anything about
It' at this tlmo. When the tlmo
comes fur construction of terminal
facilities, thoro will doubtless be
problems to solvo as the topography
of tho city la rather difficult nnd
thoro might have to bo some slight
renrrangemont of streets in tho sec
tion thai would bo nffocted. Hut
that is all In tho future.
"We sincerely hope that wo will
ho allowed to build a rallrond nnd
terminal that you will all bo proud
of."
Free of Fact loll
Judge Carey wanted It made clear
Hint bo did not desire to become
aligned Willi any ruction In tho
town, ' ,
"I don't want to be put in tho
position or being lined up with any
ono fuctlon or group. Nor do
want to bo quoted ns saying nny
thing (noun against nny other rail
road lino In Klumnth or nny other
place. , Tho fuct Is I would not put
ono straw In the way ot other rnll
rond development. Wo nro entering
this county not to fight other rail
roads but to servo tho country bet
ter. "Theco Is no use In misstating
facts. Wo nro hero for n purely
neirisli motive. It Is not to help
Klamath Falls that wo nro attempt
ing to build, but to help ourselves.
InVithor words we hope to secure
surriclent tonnage to make our ex
tension tiny. Hut, do not lose sight
of tho tact, that whatever onr mo
llvo In building here, filumath coun
ty and Klamath Falis will, be the
gainers."

tho Klnmiith Indians for many de
cades havo held their ' fantastic
tribal ceremonies.
Finn Jacobs, chief medicine man

tho white man Is making ut a hear
ing yesterday afternoon ' before
County Clerk W. J. Nollson, who Is
serving ns referee In tho case of

Tho federal government Is at
tempting to oust McCann from his
claim on the ground that the Klam

no mineral rights on it enn ho sold,
leased or assigned. -i
The testimony ot tho chief meill

SIcCann's ditch runs across the
hallowed . land with neither red-
light "stop" signals nor visible
semaphores to attract attention to
it while the moon is dark. As a ro
sult. several medicino men have
fullen Into it. The spring is' one
from which, since the coming ol
the red meu to the bunks or thu
Klumnth, only medicine men havu
drunk from its waters. No tribes
man has ever touched it, yet tho
white man, when thirsty, has no
hesitancy In availing himself of
the cool nnd bubbling nquu.
But tho last straw was reached
when Jucobs saw white men leaning
against a sacred tree ns they rested
from their labors in the mine. Tho
tree is a pine ot considerable ago.
and its bark is rubbed smooth in
places where the elbows or tho
Redskins have rubbed against it ns
a part of the ceremony, and only
nt such times may It be so treated
by 'I ho Klnmaths.
The ditch question Is the most
serious, for McCann has agreed to
cover the spring and choose other
trees ngalnst which to rest after
his labors In tho mine. The ditch
Is essential to the mine, and both
sides agree that semaphores could
not bo installed with any degree ot
satisfaction ' to either ' side, Nollbn
has asked both . sides' to 'submit
