THE STRAHORN RAILROAD BONDS
The chamber of commerce is again treading on dang
erous ground when it becomes identified with the move
to sell the' Strahorn bonds. The specious plea that
the money realized from the sale of these bonds could
be used to repair Oregon avenue offers a poor excuse
for the connection of the chamber with the matter.
It is known that the Southern Pacific has made a
tentative offer of $150,000 for these bonds and on the
surface it looks as if the step just taken by the chamber
of commerce was in furtherance of such a proposition.
Already the city has paid out about $175,000 in inter
est. It has, therefore, invested in the Strahorn line
$475,000. It will have over one million dollars invested
in the line before the bonds expire, that is assuming they
will be retired on the date they are due.
While we believe there will be no serious objection
raised against selling the bonds withqut including in
their value the interest already paid, the people of
Klamath Falls will never consent to taking one cent less
than $300,000 for the principal.
This $300,000 was invested in the Strahorn line with
the expectation that it'would lead to the construction
of a railroad from Klamath Falls to Bend, thus placing
this city in communication with the Oregon Trunk and
the Union Pacific. When Mr. Strahorn first came to
Klamath Falls this was the glittering bauble he con
stantly held before the eyes of the people until he hyp
notized them into mortgaging their property for $300,
000 to be used in placing this city in direct communi
cation with Portland and bringing a competitive railroad.
It is ne.eld.Iess- to again -state what has happened.
Everyone kiiows. And now comes a move to "gyp" the
city out of the money after the line has been turned over
to the Southern Pacific.
Klamath Falls is sorely in need of a scientific sewage
disposal system and it is badly in need of the funds to re
pair and resurface its paved streets including Oregon
avenue and South Sixth street These improvements,
it is estimated, will cost in the neighborhood of $300,
000. If the Strahorn bonds are sold for the amount the
city has invested in them it will enable the municipality
to vote an equal amount to be used in these improve
ments. No resident of Klamath Falls, or anyone who
claims to have the welfare of the city at heart, should
become party to any scheme that will make it impossible
for the city to get back all the money it has invested in
the Strahorn railroad and thus enable it to raise the
money to make these much needed improvements. Let
us be for Klamath Falls first.
