tions bad been obtained to prevent
federal and state authorities from
taking measures to stamp out. the

plaining his action. "No effort will
be spared to protect tho cattlo of

formalities of the law toward de
portation for all who cannot pro

NO COMPROMISE IN
WIND BETWEEN TWO
LINES SAYS HART
The northern lines will fight to
the finish for permission to come
Into Klamath Falls. Charles A. Hart,
counsel for tho Oregon Trunk, who
arrived yesterday from California,
declared Inst night.
"Any talk that negotiations nre
pending between our lines and the
Southern Pacific for a division of
traffic, dividing the hauls on Cali
fornia freight, Is false. We will let
nothing stop us from getting here,"
Mr. Hart declared.
Mr. Hart Is here to get evidence

PORTLAND. Sent. 18 Rp.
action against federal domin
ance of scenic, sport and for
est areas in the west appears
to fetephen T. Mather, director
of national parks, to be incon
gruous with the desire of wes
tern states to gather in the
tourist dollars.
"As far as addition to the area of
Crater lake national park Is con
cerned." said Mather, "It Is a Joke
to think that Inclusion of any new
territory would do any harm to the
state."
Mather implied that the park ser
vice would like to have Diamond
lake Included In Crater lake national
park because, he pointed out, that -.
wonderful hatchery development had
been built up at Yellowstone nation
al park and that an arrangement
had been made with the state of
lalirornta for hatchery operations In
Yosemite national park. Much of
the opposition that has developed
against inclusion of Diamond lake In
Crater national park has developed
In the ranks of sportsmen, who be
lieve that the huge Diamond lake
fish egg-taking station should re
main under control of the state.
Mather and Congressman Cramp
ton will leave tonight for.a..viBU. to
Crater lake. . .
Merrill went on record last
night at a meeting in the com
munity hall there as unani
mously favoring the present
Southern Pacific program. Of
about 30 people represented,
that entire number favored the
Southern Pacific, who has an
nounced and applied for per
mission to build a road through
that town.
There was no hostile feeling ex
pressed by Merrill folk at the meet
ing against the action taken the
night before at its neighboring
town of Malin, when after most of
the gathering broke up, a unan
imous vote was taken favoring the
Northern lines and against the
Southern Pacific. They took the
attitude that each community
should decide for Itself what is
most needed.
Two' Evening Herald reporters,'
pencil and notebook were on hand
to report the meeting. Inasmuch
as J. J. Miller, of the Southern
Pacific was at the Malin meeting,
unLeknown to the Klamatfr News,
night before last, Ibut was accused
of being a Klamath News report
er, and Inasmuch as J. J. Miller
was not present at Merrill's meet
ing last night, widespread interest
is manifest as to who this myster
ious .News reporter really Is. Paul
Sboup ln disguise? Or could It
have been Arthur Brisbane, or per
haps Ring Lardner.
Rumpus in Army By
Major Gen. Rogers
WASHINGTON. Sept. 18. (Unit.
ed News) Another sensation was
sprung in the capital Friday when
the war department revealed that
Major General Harry L. Rogers,
retired quarter mastor general had
lodged serious charges against his
successor. Major General William H.
Hart.
The war department refused to
divulge the nature of Rogers' ac
cusations. Rogers demanded that the ' war
department make a thorough in
vestigation of the ciroumstances un
der whlchfie was retired ln 1922.
He was appointed in 1918 and re
tired four years later. War de
partment records show he was
placed on the retired list for dis
ability. It Is understock that Rogers has
alleged that Hart, who was his
subordinate while Rogers was head
of the quartermaster corps, vio
lated article 95 of the articles of
war, which specify that officers
must conduct themselves "like offi
cers and gentlemen."
