the bed of Tule lake, "a lake of

FIRST IMPARTIAL
RAIL MEET IS AT
MERRILL TONIGHT
Statement In News A True
Expression O f Merrill
Sentiment, Says Hulet, In
Signed Statement
Tonight at 8 o'clock the first Im
partial railroad meeting to te held
by a Klamath county community
outside of Klamath Falls Is expect
ed to be held when representatives
of both the Hill lines end the
Southern Pacific will be on hand
at the community ball In Merrill to
give, what Merrill citizens hope,
what will amount to a definite as
surance (hat there will be. railroad
construction Into that community.
ine following Blgned statement
was given the News last night by
Rev. C. C. Hulet, who will have
charge of tho Morrill meeting:
Wednesday, June 10, 1925.
To The Daily Klamath News,
Klamath Falls, Oregon.
Gentlemen:
Inasmuch as The Evening Her
ald of June 9th and June 10,
made the. statement that I had
been misquoted by The Klamath
News in their Issue of June 9th,
regarding the railroad meeting
held In Malln Sunday, June 7th,
I think In -fairness to all con
cerned I should say that when I
was called op the phone and ask
ed If I had not been misquoted
by The News, the call coming
from Mr. A. M. Thomas, I said
to him that perhaps The Klam
ath News had made it a little
strong, but since that time I have
talked with, a number of "repre
sentative' citizens of Merrill,, and
find that the statement, made in
The News of June 9th was really
a true expression of the major
ity of the people of Merrill.
, The Merrill community wants
to be fair to all concerned, and
any person who Is able to shed
any light on the railroad situa
tion Is Invited to attend the
mass meeting tonight at Merrill
and will be given an opportun
ity to be heard.
Personally 1 do not propose to
. be a cat's paw to be used by
either side for pulling chestnuts
out ot the fire, and further If I
have any influence in tho Merrill
commuuify, that Influence will
be used to prevent the Merrill
community from becoming such a
cat's paw for either side.
' What we want is a railroad
and we don't caro who builds it.
(Signed) C. C. HULET.
The statement referred to in the
above letter was as follows:'
"The action taken at the
Malin meeting Is entirely wrong
in the opinion ot nearly every
Merrill ctizen I have discussed
the matter with, said Rev. Hulet
last night. Our meeting will
not be a one sided affair whero
the interests of one road are con
sidered and speakers of the other
are not permitted to talk, etc'

Louis Hill Among Moguls
Expected To Arrive In
K. F. On Special Train
From East
That the Hill lines are in
earnest about invading the
Klamath country is borne out
more strongly than ever today
by the fact that three of the
chief executives of that com
bination of railroads known as
the Hill lines, will come to
Klamath Falls within the next
two weeks. This fact was
learned by The News last
night through a local railroad
man in touch with the situa
tion. Louis V. Hill, chairman of
the board' of directors of the
Great Northern railroad, will
be here, as weli as Charles
Donnelly, president of the Nor
thern Pacific, and Ralph Budd,
president of the Great Nor
thern. These men are now in
the east.
The executives are sched
uled to arrive in Portland next
week, coming to Klamath Falls
in a special car' from that
city. The executives, so far as
is known, while here, will in
spect property bought in this
city, and probably make an in
spection of the Hill line sur
