The Evening Herald is the official paper of Klamath County Friday, October 30, 1925 MORE FEDERAL INTERFERENCE A few days ago there appeared in the press a state ment bearing upon conditions on the Klamath project, it being claimed by the newspapers publishing it thai it was given out by Commissioner of Reclamation Mead. There were so many things in that statement that were deliberate falsehoods that the officers of the Klamath Irrigation district demanded either a retraction, or proof of its correctness. To these demands no answer was received, but Congressman Sinnott was advised by Mead's assistant, a fellow named Dent, that the com missioner had issued no statement. ' i Now, there is a reason back of all this. For years the reclamation service has been moving heaven and earth to deliver to the California Oregon Power company water rights that are worth millions and which today belong to the farmers of the project. Everything was going along nicely until one year ago. when the farmers discovered what was going on and secured control of the board of directors of the district through the election of R. E. Bradbury and Joe Jacob. As soon as these men took office they stepped the steal and since then the reclamation service has been powerless to deliver title to the water to the Power company. On November 10, there is to be held another election for directors, at which two members will be chosen. It is for the undoubted purpose of influencing the result of this election that the challenged statement was is sued. A similar trick was tried last year, but met with failure. The plain intent of the statement in question was to stir up prejudice among the farmers through the charge that the large landowners are permitted to escape payment of taxes ,while the small landowner has' to foot the bill. Before the campaign is ended it will be shown that the charge is a lie. In this campaign the California Oregon Power com pany and the Southern Pacific are going to leave noth ing undone that will insure the defeat of the farmers' candidates and secure the election of the men they have selected to represent them on tire board. If the recla mation service dominates the Klamath Irrigation dis trict as it did for years, the water rights will be sur rendered to the. California Oregon Power company and the resolution .asking for a common-user condition be placed upon any railroad crossing government land within the project will be withdrawn. The farmers of the Klamath project will sever con sent to either of these. They own the water, and they are going to be paid for it if it goes to the Power company or any other concern. And they are going to demand that any railroad passing through the project shall be constructed under conditions that will permit of its use by any other company that wishes to enter this territory. v MR. GROESBECK'S STATEMENT The S. P.-Copco mouthpiece, the Klamath News, this, morning rushes to the defense of Strahorn's attorney, R. C. Grbesbeck. in an effort to make it appear that The Evening Herald has attempted to "befuddle, misin- j form and hoodwink the people," when we printed Mr. I Groesbeck's letter which appeared in the columns of the Klamath News, together with his testimony at tne ; interstate commerce commission hearing in Fontanel. The Evening Herald made no comment one way or the other just printed what Mr. Groesbeck had to say on both occasions. If there is any misinformation, or be fuddlement, or hoodwinking it must be laid at the door of Mr. Groesbeck, for that which we printed came from, that gentleman himself. That there may be no misunderstanding let us repro duce the important parts of the articles in question: Mayor Goddard, in his message to the city council ask ing that body to take steps to recover the $300,000 that the city has invested in the Strahorn line, said : "Further, Robert E. Strahorn and Attorney R. C. Groesbeck testified at the interstate commerce commis sion hearing that Mr. Strahorn had never said he was, going to build a line to Bend." To this Mr. Groesbeck replied, in his letter appearing in The Klamath News : "I did not so testify." Under oath, at the interstate commerce commission ; hearing in Portland, Mr. Groesbeck testified as follows, according to a stenographic report of the testimony: Q. (By Mr. Wilson.) Were you acquainted with the representations that Mr. Strahorn made generally there: in connection with his construction? A. (By Mr. Groesbeck.) Yes, sir. Q. I will ask you whether or not any representations j were made, or any subscriptions taken, upon the basis j l?f the line being constructed through to Bend? ' 5 m N.Vl 1-1 S.N HWVfjTtv SAT UN A. No, sir. Q. "Wei e any representations made in connection with any of these meetings, or any subscriptions, that the jn"e on the part of Mr. Strahorn that the line was to be and remain a svstem or line independent of any other iine." A. "No, sir." The stenographic report of the hearing from which the above is reproduced, indicates that Mr. Groesbeck did testify "that Mr. Strahorn had never said he was going to build a line to Bend."
