Eleven construction camps have already been established and the railway company is very much en couraged with the progress of the work at this early date, Mr. Miller said. The new main line will hug the lower slopes of Mt. Shasta and will eliminate the heavy grade and adverse curves on tho old logging line which has been utilized into Weed and will also do away with the long climb out of Weed to the head of the Sacramento can yon.

KIP FAILS TO TAKE STAND Sensation Seekers Are DUap , pointed At New Turn : Annulment Trial ' r 'WHITE PLAINS, N. Y., Nov. 30. (United NewB) Robbed of what might have been Its greatest sen sation the expected appearance of Mrs. Leonard Kip Rhinelander on the Witness stand the sensational trial of young Rhinelander's annul ment suit drifted towards' a close Monday, .upon a flood-tide of ora tory. The nsual stir and bustle In the stuffy little courtroom was stilled for a moment during the morning, when Lee Parsons Davis, attorney for the' dark defendant, rose, pre sumably to call to the stand the little girl with negro blood In her veins, who has been a target of bit terness and shocking denunciation during the three weeks thus far oc cupied by the trial. Eyes turned towards the defend ant, in her front row seat beside her parents. She held a handker chief to her face, seeming to shrink before the glare of hundreds of cur ious eyes. Promptly, Davis sprung, one of the real sensations of the trial. He announced, Mrs. Rhinelander would not take the stand. Her physical condition did not warrant it, he ex plained. Her testimony could add nothing to the refutation already Introduced, of charges that she had (Continued On Page Two) Governor Vetoes Reclamation Bill OLYMPIA, Nov. 80. Gov.

ALDERMEN CLASH OVER TIME WORN Pool Hall Operator Gets the Gate STUCKEY JABS POWELL Balsiger Says Police Are Not Doing Their Best To Enforce Law Discussion of Klamath Falls' drinking and gambling joints last night precipitated an oral battle among various aldermen in attend ance at the regular council meeting, and culminated in the denial of an atinllratlnn fni A nnrmlt in nnoratn a pool hall beneath the Arcade hotel. ' Keen-edged verbal shafts were hurled back and forth by Council men Z. J. Powell and C. E. Stuckey. as regarded the council's stand on what was termed a "clean" town. The proprietor of the pool hall, whose name seemed to be known by no one, had been summoned before the police committee last Friday night and this. Stuckey intimated, was nothing more than a "grand stand play" on Powell's part. The other members of the -committee. Chairman Stuckey and Councilman Fred Cofer, were not in attendance. . Mr. Powell's motion that' the li cense be denied brought on the oral fireworks. t ' "What you wanted to do," Mr. Stuckey charged, as he addressed foweu, "was to get tnat man up before the police committee and bawl him out. I'm "behind the po lice, but I don't favor picking on one man. Why didn't you take him before the Judge?" Powell countered by saying that, during the last instance when .whis key was found at the place in ques tion, there waa not sufficient evi- uence leu on wnicn to nase a case. He ; said it had been poured out. Powell declared himself strongly he hind the police at all times. "If you want to do something," Powell shot at Stuckey, "show your hand. Back up the police and see what they'll do. Give them some support." It was at this Juncture that Al derman Balsiger chose a good, strong bomb to toss, among his fel low councllmen, and It left them scratching their respective heads. "Probably this license should be denied," he said, "but there are lots of other places running from which we get no revenue at all. When you say that they (the police) are doing their best, you're mis taken." Alderman Stuckey Interrupted to say that, "it seems to me there are only two or three places ther're after." Despite Alderman Bnlsiger's point ed comments. It was he who, ulti mately, seconded the motion of Councilman Powell, and the pool hall license was denied. Records, It was said, show that persons had been arrested in the place on three different occasions twice because of alleged liquor violations, and once for gambling.
