FRENZIED CHILOQUIN
Chiloquin has given itself over to frenzied
leadership which romps around endeavoring to
find someone whom they imagine Is opposing
their home man, Charles R. Williams, for county
commissioner. Using no judgment whatever,
they are assailing Mr. Williams' friends and sup
porters in other pails of the county, raising a
Bogus issue and engaging in libelous gossip
that will only serve as a fire to consume. them
if they keep it up.
' I happen to know Charles R. Williams prob
ably better than any man in Chiloquin especi
ally those who are skyrocketing around with
their slanderous and malicious tongues trying to
spread propaganda against the publisher of the
News and Herald.
! And let me say right here, I am supporting
Charles R. Williams for the reason that my
knowledge of his career in Baker county when
he was an extensive cattleman and rancher, rec
ommends him to me as a man who can stand
reverses and still be a man through it all. He is
worthy and capable and my vote and support
will be given Mr. Williams in a loyal and sin
cere manner. "
However, I do not like the coyote manner in
which some of the citizens of Chiloquin are con
ducting themselves, and I do not consider it any
benefit to Mr. Williams, who is a new man in the
county, to have a pack of barking wolves create
trouble for him when at he same time they
really wish to help him.
The Chiloquin stories of purchased news
paper support for any candidate in the Herald
and News belong to that category of lies only
indulged . in by those who still think the dark-A
ages of politics are with us and that journalism
has no honor. Let me say to those gossip-bearers
and scandal mongers that the newspapers of
Klamath Falls have been intensely kind to
Chiloquin. When analysis of the city's finances
have been presented to a Klamath newspaper
ivith a request to make comment, thus probably
saving what seemingly is a delicate situation,
we have refused to do so because I was proud
of the industrial community that was being
brought forth on the reservation, and believed
Chiloquin would in time become vsound. When
other matters of a really more serious nature
have been presented by delegations of good
people from Chiloquin, the newspapers of Klam
ith have urged them to do their best to right
tjiings at home without wide publicity. And let
is say right here that the good people of Chilo
duin are in the vast majority. The flamboyant
front, the spin of the wheel, the stacks of coin
6n the table, the unbridled hilarity that has
given Chiloquin a peculiar name up and down
the Pacific coast are not to the, liking of Chilo
quin's citizens in a great big majority. If the
few Chiloquin politicians wish to carry on the
right, l am ready.

The question that it before the people of KlaniM'i Fail and
Klamath county in the (election of county commissioners is this :
. , ?f
Can Klamath county afford to lose two milling operations
a large as the Pelican Bay Lumber company and the Klam
nlh Manufacturing company?
' We have already lost one that would carry nn irmi.il payroll
of $125,000 or more per month. We will lose the other two if
Burrcll Short and those who are back of him arc successful in
their effort to smash the one money producing asset "f tho county
the lumber industry.
For more than Iwa years lliey have curried on a '.varfarc
against it. It stcrted when the infamous timber crub'n- contract
was secretely signed by the county court, then in the control of a
former judge and Burrcll Short.
Burrcll today is making his campaign on the claim that he
is going to make the timber men pay. Before I get through, I
will show you that the limber industry is paying more than its
share and that the result of this unfair campaign has cost
this county one big mill and will cost it two more if the Short
scheme is successful.
Can the working men of this community t-fford to close the
doors of this city to more mills? The- reason the wages of this
district arc higher than they are in other districts is due to the
fact that there is tn unusual demand for men. Let that demand
i ' be satisfied and down will go your wages. The one and certain
way to postpone thct time is to bring in more industries and that
very thing is being stopped by the campaign of business assas
tination that is being carried on by those cdvocating tho
election of Short. They care nothing for the people of this
county just so long as their campaign of revenge is successful.
Can the working men, the business men and farmers of this
county afford to suffer this loss just to sec Short landed in office
nd his supporters placed in a position where they can push
through their program?
If Burrcll Short was such a friend of the taxpayers, why did
he become a party to the secret contract for the cruising of the
timber of this county ct a price of 20 cents an acre?
1 Why did he refuse to advertise for bids? Why did he refuse
to entertain offers of from 8 cents an acre to I2 m cents an acre?
Why did he stand for the plundering of the county for from
$20,000 to $30,000 or more on this job? Let him tell the voters
of the county why he did it. Here is a telegram received by the
county court on January 10, 1927. It tells a story in itself, a story
i '. of how honest, responsible cruisers were denied an opportunity
to bid:

What has Burrcll Short to say about this statement from Mr.
Netse? What has he to say about his refusal to award a contract
' for eight cents nn acre? Or 10 cents on acre? Or 12 cents
n acre? '
"
These various bids were received by the county court and
ignored. As suggested in the above telegram, a thorough invest!-'
gation of this entire transaction should be made, and I would sug
gest that those affected place it before a grand jury and have
that body go to the bottom of the whole disgraceful affair.
As a result of this attempt to make the timber industry of this
county the target of unfair taxation, milling operations that we
must have if we are to go ahead, are going elsewhere... If the
people approve of this vicious campaign there will be lost to this
city two mills similar lo the Pelican Bay Lumber company and
the Klamath Manufacturing company. Do you want this to
happen? Shut them out and you will bring to an etrly end the
building activities in this city that have furnished employment
for scores of skilled mcc'.ankj U.r t' o past two years.
This isa question in which every man in Klamath Falls is and
ihould be interested. It means the success or failure of Klamath
Falls, end on this will depend whether those now living here will
have their hopes and ambitions realized or whether this city will
drop into the rut now occupied by cities on the other side of tho
mountain. i . .
