I will quote In part tho testimony which I read tit the hearing of the Interstate Commerce Commission at Portland. Oregon: Testimony " 'On or about August 18, 1918, after muling u careful investigation of tho transportation needs of Cen tral Oregon and particularly Klam nth Falls r.nd Klamath county. Mr. Robert K. Strahorn. at a public meeting held In Houston Opera House, proposed to the citizens of Klamath Falls thai in order to go cure adequate rullroad transporta tion to Klamath Falls and vicinity and free the citizens ,'rotu the "ex orbitant freight charges" of the Southern Pacific, he, Robert E. Strahorn. would hulld a railroad from Klamath Falls via Sliver Lake Oregon, to Bend, Oregon, to connect with the Oregon Track and Union Pacific railroads, said railroads lo enter Klamath Falls over this pro posed independent line', which is now known an the Oregon, Califor nia & Kastern. litimately u line was to he built from Bend. Oregon, to Crane. Oregon, there to connect with the I'nlon Pacific and give dj rect connection to eastern stntes over said i'nlon Pacific. Another line was to be built from Silver i.ak", Oregon, south and cast to Iakoi.-w. Oregon. To enable Mr. Strahorn to build this independent line,' he Imposed the following con ditions: " 'I. The citizens of Klamath Falls must by popular subscription securo a terminal site (to be chosen by Kobt. K. Strahorn I and acquire tho right of way from Klamath Falls, Oregon, to the south line of the Klamath Indian Reservation, north of Dairy. .Must Buy Securities " '2. The City of Klamath Falls must purchase J300.000.00 of secur ities of the proposed independent line.' "it was found that tho city cf Klamath Falls could not legally purchase said securities, therefore it wns decided to hold a special election to bond tho city of Klam ath Falls for the sum of $300,000. with which to build the Klamath Falls -Municipal Railroad which win to bo the first unit of the independ ent railroad' to Bend, Oregon. Said Klamath Falls Municipal railroad was to be taken over by Uobt B, ri ra ii orn wuon me piupuneu inuc- pendent line' to Bend was completed to Sprague Itiver. Large Sum Raised " 'Led by the promises of Rob:. E. Strahorn to build an independ ent lino' to Bend, Oregon, a pop ular subscription was taken and the sum of approximately $60,000 wns subscribed to purchase terminal sites and right of way. " 'A special election was held and a general bond Issue of $300,000 was voted to build the first unit of the independent railroad' to Bend. Said unit was to be known as the Klamath Falls Municipal Railroad. So anxious were tho citizens "f Klamath Falls lo get free from the exhorbitant freight rates of the Southern Pacific, the election carried by a vote of approximately 12 to 1. "Notwithstanding these facta, which can be substantiated beyond all question of doubt, IntcroMod citizens of Klamath Falls viewed the spectacular acenq of Itobt. 10.

"By this action alone It. Is clearly shown that the Oregon. California and Kastern Is controlled, If not owned, by the Southern Pacific. Thus, we see how the money voted by the citizens of Klnmath Palls was used to defeat the very pur pose for which It was voted, that Is, a railroad to Bend.
