(Longest in the world.) OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE CITY OF KLAMATH FALLS "Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith let us to the end dare to do our duty as we understand if Abraham Lincoln A SIN REPEATED (Oregon Journal) Edward H. Harriman sinned against Oregon. So did James J. Hill. They marred the railroad future of this state. Amid scenes of conflict and contest they paralleled railroad lines up the canyon of the Deschutes. They dup licated an investment which totaled $22,000,000. It was an error of judgment that likewise marred great records of great builders. And to what purpose? Both central Oregon lines stopped where the pro ducing country began. One line added to the other would have reached Klamath oi' Harney. Constant deficits in operating the parallel lines have since forced rectifica tion as far as possible of the Deschutes tragedy. One line has been abandoned and dismantled. Eighty miles of tracks today are in common use by both railroad sys tems. They divide operating costs; they reduce deficits. An almost identical blunder threatens now south of end. From Odell Junction to Klamath Falls is 85 miles. The Southern Pacific is building the Natron cut-off along this route. The Great Northern and Northern Pacific have determined jointly to extend the Oregon Trunk to Klamath Falls along an old survey that for 85 miles parallels that of the Southern Pacific. Why again sin against Oregon? Why spend $3, 400,000 for duplicate rails that will be added to the rate making base? Why defer opening to Klamath mills and other industries the markets along 27.000 miles of Great Northern and Northern Pacific lines not reached by exist ing service from Klamath? Why cannot the heads of these lines ngrcc upon common use of a single line, and spend the money that is to be used in parallel tracks on an intelligent railroad map for the region? - The cry all over the country is that there are too many parallel lines, which increase every item of cost and make rates higher and higher. The chiefs of these lines touching central Oregon are able and effective. Why not meet in friendly delibera tion and build railroads, not in war but in constructive peace .' o . SOUND (Oregon Journal) President Coolidge is reported as opposed to a mili tary display on Armistice day, on the theory that that day is dedicated to peace and not to military flourishes, military testa or thoughts of war. There is no question of the soundness of the presi dent's thought. Armistice day was the day the war was ended, not started. It was the day hostilities ceased, not commenced. It was the day when peace was declared, not war. It was declared a holiday to commemorate the ending of battle, the silencing of the trims (ho i-oatinn I 'of bloodshed. It was never intended to be a day for military ges tures. It was not set aside to take stock of our guns, men and munitions. It was not meant to be a day of prepara tion for war, but a clay to be thankful for peace. To make it a day for military gesture or evidence of preparedness under the direction of the war department is to subvert the purpose of the holiday and is to turn the thoughts of the people away from peace and to war. That is not a proper move from the standpoint of the pffect in this country or its inte rpretation abroad. A scientist discovers that the progeny of a single pair of rats could in throe years infest the world if conditions were ideal. That means plenty of filth and rubbish.
