Mr. IVendllng’a Statement
The subject ¡3 of necessity a large one,
in the opinion of many of the people
comprising the present |«>pulation ot
Klamath Falls, though time and spaca
Iwth forbid dealing with the question
except in the briefest manner possible«
There are several things entering into
the present situation from our point ot
view not fully understood nor thorough
ly appreciated by the community, a few
words may therefore not come atuiao at
this time.
In locating the main line of the Cali
fornia Northeastern railroad, it was
necessary to find a large piece of land
having a flat surface in area ample to
accomodatu an extensive freight yard
and |>assenger scivice, ami where empty
cars may be stored w hen not in use, and
incoming trains laden with merchandise
requiring ample tracks and sidings to
afford convenient spaca for unloading.
This requires a large nuinlier of tracks,
ami tracks for such service must be on a
water level, and cannot lie economically
handled on land where cats and tills are
necessary. Cuts and tills at stations
a-e never tolerated, except where they
cannot be avoided, and when thus dis-
ad vantageously tolerated, are a con
stant menace to the public safety, cans
ing unavoidable wrecks, hence the lev«l
ground for station pur|«>ses is always
sought. Wo therefore, followed the
teaching of experience In the railroad
world in selecting our station grounds.
land such as this in any considerable
body available for such pur|ioses, and
other nocessary irquin-mants, such as
stock yards, etc., could be lound only va
the M right tract.
Tho burden of providing a convenient
and comfortable entrance to land pas
sengers into the town
Klamath Falls,
therefore, confronted our |>eople as •
problem for solution, that could only bw
solved l>v s line of street railway.
That a systuin of street railways ooald
not |xissih|y be operated except at a Issa
for several years to < gm - is an absolute
certainty, nevertheless, to ¡-eriorm such
service seemed to unr people a part oi
our undertaking.
We therefore applied early for street
railway fianchi-«s aecesamy lor our op
erations and the proper accomolation of
the traveling public. The story of our
operations in construction under tho
able management of our Mr. C‘ampl»ell
ami his assitants has bosn impartially
told in the columns of tb« Bopoblicaa,
lienee requiring no repetition liSie at
this time.
