All rights of republication of special dispatches here At are also reserved. T.he Evening Herald is the official paper of Klamath County and the City of Klamath Falls. Tuesday, October (5, 1925 COPCO CROWD GOING It looks as if we are going to have a new deal in the light and power situation in Klamath county. Published and confidential reports are to the effect that the Cali fornia Oregon Power company is going to pass into ihe hands of operators instead of stock speculators and the crowd now in control of the affairs of that company "will pass out of the picture and a new element a busi ness element will take charge. The time was when the Power company had the good will of the people of this county. That was be fore the stock jobbing gang got hold of the affairs of the company. Pursuing the methods common to that tribe, all of the human touch was crushed out of its ad ministration. Everyone and everything that got in their way were crushed or debauched. It was not long before the people discovered that this gang of get-rich-quick Wallingfords were out to line their pockets at the ex pense of the people. Water rights were stolen and rates were raised to a point where it became a real hardship on the people. All this was capitalized and bonded and everything was done to make a financial showing that would justify a sale to those who make the operation of power companies a business instead of a stock speculating trade. If the Byllesby company comes in the people will have to do with a concern that recognizes the human element. The record of the company wherever it operates seems, to he one of peace and harmony and cooperation. How ever, if it comes into the control of the California Oregon Power company itjnust do so with a realization of the fact that the people here never will consent to a theft of their water; that they never will consent to an abando ment of the tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, that the water for their irrigation may go down the Klamath river to produce power to be coined into profits for its stockholders at the expense of the people of the Klamath district. The waters of the Kalmath lake be long to the people first and when this fact is recog nized, then, and not 'till then, will a basis for peace be found and a cooperative pact signed. THAT TERMINAL SITE We have heard a lot of stuff from the morning mouth piece of the Southern Pacific about the terminal that it says will be established here. We believe that all this terminal talk is the same as we heard for weeks about the application that had been made for the line to Alturas. That application was not made until the Evening Herald published the fact that someone was not telling the truth. The expose finally resulted in forcing a last-minute filing. We would now like to have some definite, concrete statement from an authorative Southern Pacific source of where and when the terminal will be located. We don't believe the Southern Pacific has changed its plans to locate the terminal at Fuego. If it has, then there should be someone in authority who can state definitely that the terminal is to be located in Klamath Falls. We have had no such statement yet. THE CRUCIAL TIME IS COMING Some people Have gotten the idea into their heads that the fight for the Northern lines is over. This is a mis take. It is just starting. Just as soon as the hearing in Portland is ended, you will find the Southern Pacific at work bottling up the city. You will find it trying to secure rights in and around the city that will make it impossible for the Northern lines to enter. You 'will find it out in the field buying property and will handicap the construction of the line, provided the interstate com merce commission grants to the Oregon Trunk permis sion to extend from Bend to Klamath Falls. The cru cial time is ahead and the people must ever be on thu look-out for tricks and trickery. The gain that has been made must not be 'lost, but it will be lost if there is the least relaxation upon the part of the people. It is strange to see a newspaper that claims .to repres ent the interests of the people advocating the closing of the city to another railroad and then claiming it is not governed by the influence of the Southern Pacific. And it is strange to see business men who claim they stand for the welfare of the community supporting such a news paper. But stranger than all is to see those whose bread and butter depends' upon Greater Klamath Falls patron izing either of them. When we learn to stand only for those things that spell advancement for the whole com munity, we Will have taken the first stej) towards better things. You will find, however, that the real business men those who do not fear the competition that will follow the coming of another railroad are not lined up against the people, and these are the ones you should atronie when you have money to spend. The Herald Publishing Street, Klamath Falls, Oregon. Pttblishif News Editor ovmlincf m'ppA UUlIb VI IV- BlUMUVpi i Vfc taye ever seen was contained in the Klamath News o! this morning, when that paper descended to gutter-snipe tactics in an effort to strike at Mayor Goddard. On its front page this morning it had an alleged United News dispatch from Portland, to the effect that Mayor God dard spent ten minutes at the rail hearing, and then adds: "Possiblv heinc: in a big city held more pleasures than listening to a rail hearing. Possibly he faded to comprehend what it was all about. He wore a bright red necktie and collar." At any rate that collar was his own not the Southern Pacific's, which is more than The News can say. .
