"AN EMPIRE AWAKENING" Potentially groat as an inland city is Klamath Palla, lying in a strategic situation adjacent to extensive pine forests and fertile agricultural areas which constitute "An Empire Awakening." About Bali the size of the state of Maryland, Klamath county depends for its main interests on the timber stand, soil development, and abundant scenic attractions for touriste. Lumber is at present the chief product of the county with 28 mills and 87,000,000.000 foot of pine timber I standing within the confines of the county. A payroll of TJie Evening Herald is the official paper of Klamath County a million dollars goes to 3000 men engaged in felling and the City of Klamath Falls.

Klamath is the largest box (shook center In the worjd, and stands next to Portland ..iB.flft . ;is a shipping point in the state. - I'll All industries are growing rapidly, but next to timber '.' .A work probably the greatest opportunities lie in diver sified farming. Former take beds furnish deep and fertile soft. Lakes and mountain streams harnessed by the United States reclamation engineers abundant ly watered farms devoted to stock raising, alfalfa, grain ml potatoes. While Klamath ships over 1,000 cars of livestock annually, the raising of beef cattle having long been a big Industry, smaller land holdings and more intensive Operation will rapidly bring oilier agricultural resources to the front. Nature was "lavish with Klamath county when she dis tributed beautiful streams, springs, lakes and fores:.?: While notable scenic charm distinguish.es the score or more of lakes in the county, the greatest q these scenic wonders, is Crater Lake. This most spectacular caldera in the world is the mecca for many thousands, of tourists, an increasing horde from every state in the union, and even for sichtseers from across the seas. Within . . .

P. $11 undoubt ed accept the invitation extended by the Northern lines: io use the Oregon Trunk from Odell to this city; it would be a long step in the direction of the much-discussed' railroad from southwestern Idaho to Eureka, via Klamath Tails, and the Klamath river. While it might interfere with the construction of the Modoc Northern, it would not prevent the extension of the Oregon Trunk to Wendel, to a connection with the Western Pacific, for such an extension would be just as i atural a development as the one now proposed from Bend to this city. Instead of opposing the Crane-Odell line the people of this county should give to it all of their support, for it will mean greater development for Klamath county; it will mean the extension of the Oregon Trunk to Wen del, thus connecting this city with the fourth great rail road system the Western Pacific. It is plain to be seen that great possibilities are in store for Klamath county, provided its people are not mislead by dishonest propaganda to espouse a cause that has for its purpose the tightening of the grip on this community of one big railroad system. Paid agents of the Southern Pacific are afield; selfish interests, seek ing only to enrich their own pockets, are working early and late to lead the people astray, but if the people will continue in their wisdom, Klamath county will not only secure the Northern lines, but it will be connected up with the Western Pacific and Union Pacific, and it wont have to pay $300,000 for it, either. building into iiilliogs.

No one. unless he wanted an out and out in dorsement of the Southern Pacific, can find the slightest , antagonism to that company in the report. We be lieve that the members of the committee sought, to the best of their ability, to suggest what would be best for the county. It was a delicate situation that was splend idly handled and the fact that the Southern Pacific can-i not see its way clear to accept the report is no reason for its rejection. v j In its editorial the Klamath News at last tears off i the mask and comes out flat-footed for the Southern ' Pacific. This was to be expected, for it is a poor servant i that refuses to do his master's bidding. The Southern Pacific'cditorial writer has again step ped to the front, this time in criticism of the Evening Herald's vote to ascertain the sentiment of the county on ilic railroad question. He suggests in the company's newspaper, the Klamath News( thai We also file with our returns copies of the paper in which he claims we nave criticized his chief, Mr. Shoup, and the Southern Pacific coajutor, Ml.
