THE LUMBERMEN'S STAND
What ei'i'ect the pronouncement of the lumbermen of
this district, in which they state that another railroad
is not needed, will have upon the action of the Ipterstate
Commerce Commission and the coming of the Northern
lines is problematical. If the statement were based upon
solid facts; if it represented the interests of Klamath
county; if it were the sincere expression of a group of
men who were standing for the high principle of civic
development and community welfare; if it represented
the unselfish expression of those who signed it, .it might
accomplish that which the Southern Pacific desires the
shutting out of the Northern lines. But since it stands
for everything else but these things, we cannot believe
it will cany the weight anticipated by those who have
been promoting the move.
In the first place the signers represent but a very small
percentage of the timber resources of the county. Xo
where on the document will you find the names of the
Weyerhaeuser Timber company, Long-Bell Lumber com
pany, Fremont Land company (Shevlin-Hixon), Chester
L. Hovey, Oskosh Timber company, Ralph E. Gilchrist,
James L. Soper owners of the bulk of the timber in
Klamath county. If Weyerhaeuser and Shevlin-Hixon
operate here, they will probably cut more lumber than
all of the fourteen signers. Yet practically all, if not
all, of these concerns are favorable to the coming of the
Oregon Trunk. Weyerhaeuser and Shevlin-Hixon will
probably not operate here, if the Oregon Trunk is not
extended to Klamath Falls.
The real reason for the signing of the statement is to
escape the retaliation that would be sure to come from
the Southern Pacific if the lumbermen had declared
their independence. Another, and doubtless the domin
ating one, was the fear of the big operators who will
come here if the Northern lines' are built into Klamath
Falls. It is a narrow view, one ill-befitting the men
who seek te stand as leaders in their line of endeavor.
The statement has all the ear-marks of a "sign there"
document. Does anyone suppose that the entrance of
the Northern lines will not give this territory an outlet
to the north? Does anyone suppose that the extension
of the Northern lines to Wendel will not give an outlet
to the south and a direct and shorter route to the east?
There is nothing to be gained in the way of a Portland
connection, for the Natron cutoff is an assured fact.
With the construction of the line to Wendel which
is sure to come this territory would have a water level
line to San P'rancisco and thus secure the elimination of
the mountain freight rate. It looks to us as if these
"dotted line" timber operators have performed an act
of which they should be ashamed and one that in the
not far distant future they will pay a price that they will
not soon forget.
In a way we are glad that they have committed this
asinine act, for it will awaken the people of the county
to a realization of the fact that there is a concerted,
well-organized move to block the Northern lines. If it
will stir the people into action, we have no fear of the
result.

have doped out a
believe will make the Republicans
a heap of trouble at the next session
of Congress. The Republicans bare
doped out a counter program to
ward this trouble off.
The Democratic scheme is to
make an awful racket about tariff
reduction. The Republican scheme
is to main? so much more rackett
about tax reduction that the tariff
reduction racket will be drowned
out.
Roth parties will he doing their
hollering with a view to its ef
fect on the 11120 congressional
elections.
"The tariff, said the Democrats
to themselves, "is an Important
Issue, but little understood, ex
cept by economists, of whom there
nro preriotiH few. We must Jazz
il up for common folks. Wuldn't.
it bo gland If we could gut th.
solid women's vote?
"By gracious! Maybe wo can.
Look bow the coBt of housekeep
ing has been rising lately. And
women pay the bills. They'll be la
to listen when We tell 'em, "The
high tariff's what makes everything
so expensive."
The Republicans are painfully
conscious that this may be so.
The Republicans can't prevent
the Democrats from telling the
nation, in dozens of speeches next
winter, what a good thing tariff
reduction would he.
They can contradict, but they
suspect the Democratic argument,
presented as evidently It's going
to bo presented, will have a pretty
strong appeal. They want some
thing to talk about themsesVes
and something to show, that they've
actually done for the voters.
The Republican offering will be
tax reduction., Every time a Demo
crat urges tariff reduction a Re
publican will remind the nation that
his party is in the very act of
reducing taxes.
The Republicans meant to re
make tile most of doing it.
And in the 192(1 camjalgn, every
time a Democrat pleads for a
chance to lower llvin;: costs by
tariff reduction, a Republican will
tinswer, "That's talk. We acted.
We cut taxes down." '
