These and many similar reasons were advanced by the Southern Pacific to justify its opposition to the entrance of the Northern lines. Startled by the almost unanimous demand on the part of the people that the Northern lines be granted permis sion to build, the Southern Pacific changed its tactics snd had recourse to its time-worn practice of promising j urst one railroad extension and then another, until tne expenditure for these extensions mounted to the hure sum of approximately $21,000,000. But with each promise was made the condition that it would not be subjected to "destructive competition," which means that the Northern lines would be shut out. If the present and potential tonnage of the Klamath district was not and will be sufficient to pay dividends on the cost of the Northern line extension from Bend roughly estimated at 8,000,000 where is the Southern Pacific going to get the business to pay dividends on the $21,000,000 it is willing to spend to keep this district under its exclusive control? Is it not a wilful waste of money to spend $21,000,000 to accomplish what 38, 000,000, or a little more, will accomplish? If the busi ness in this district is so great that the Southern Pacific can afford- to waste over ten million dollars to control it, expecting the shippers to pay freight charges high enough to pay dividends o nthis waste, then is it not sufficient to justify the expenditure of eight millions by the Northern lines, with the certain resultant of lower freight rates, better car supply, wider" markets and greater development? It is one of two things: Either the Southern Pacific never intends to spend $21,000,000 in railroad construc tion in this territory, if it succeeds in heading off the Northern lines, or it was misrepresenting the facts when it first sought to convince the people that there was not sufficient business in this district to justify the entrance of a second railroad. The motto of the Southern Pacific seems to be, "Mil lions for obstruction, but not one penny for development." ( wu My "vN - 3 .-11 Jiewutr shinoton r.v CHARLES P.

Not so with this latest move of the Southern Pacific. Only a few hand-picked sympathize! s were let in on the secret. Even at that the Malin meeting reiterated its demand for the North ern lines.
