Senator Nyo la decidedly not In

Sitting In tho spacious office
which has been provided for him In

outlined his alms for the coming

"I wish to demonstrate to the na

understands the northwest ao little.
"We are Just as patriotic out there
as people are anywhere In the coun

"What we want to do Is to put

It Is In Senator Nye's method for
putting agriculture on such an even

GRASS LAKE LINE
Eleven Construction
Camps Started
EXPENDITURE $8,000,000
New Line Will Save Heavy
Grade Into Weed and
Sacramento Divide
Between 400- and 500 men are
now employed by tho Utah Con -
aimcuou company, contractors lor
the southern Pacific railroad. In the
construction of the new line from
Grass Lake to a point on the main
line of the 9. P. near SIbsoh, accord
ing to J. J. Miller, district freight
and passenger agent.
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. For the great flood of south
bound freight traffic out of the
Klamath country, the new line will
also affect a saving of some ten
miles into California. The cost of
the new line which will be on a
par with the wonderful construc
tion of the Natron cut-off north
to Eugene will . be approximately
$3,000,000. ' ' ' "
Permission was given the S. P.
by the interstate commerce com
mission for the Grass Lake exten
sion about two months ago, and
Ben C. Dey of Portland, head coun
sel for the southern Pacific, stated
on the occasion of hti visit to Klam
ath Falls in September, that the
Grass Lake construction work
would be taken up at once and car
ried through with all possible dis
patch notwithstanding the decision
of the commission on the matter
of the Invasion of Klamath by the
Northern lines.
High officials of the Southern
Pacific havo stated that with the
main line traffic which will be div
erted via Klamath on completion
of tho Natron cut-off early next
summer, makes It absolutely man
datory that the old Weed Logging
company line into Weed be aband
oned.

(United NewB) Robbed of what

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

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.
