his surveyors have completed a map
of the country southwark to the Ala
media tidewater Two years have been
consumed in making the survey and
perfecting plans for terminals here, but
long before this Hill had entered upon
his project to build to San Francisco.
To achieve his purposes without be-
traying them to Hartman, he sent T.
B. Walker, the Minneapolis lumber
magnate, westward, as representative
of a syndicate organized ostensibly for
the purpose of buying up and holding
timber land in California. Walker. in
about five years time, has purchased in
his own name about 500, 900 acres of
land, through which the Hill road will
extend. Strangely the bulk of this land
was purchased from the Central Pacific
land department. In other words. Hill
purchased guaranteed tonnage for his
new road from his hated rival and
without the latter ever suspecting the
motive behind the deal.
CLEVER RUSE is ADOPTED.
Frequently, with a view of throwing
Hartman off scent, I. B. Walker en-
gagged surveyors to work in various
sections of Northern California, while
the Hill men stole march in some
other direction. This was done only
recently, when Hill wanted to get his
men into the Pitt River District
Walker. to distract attention, sent out
a party of surveyors on trip through
the country north of Oroville, allowing
the story to be circulated that he was
figuring on building road into the
Shingletown district. Before Walkers
men were called in, the Hill party had
done its surveying and moved up
toward the Oregon line
Meanwhile Harvey. Lindley, acting
for Hill. had secured an option on the
Klamathton tract of timber land that
stretches across the northern boundary
of California into Southern Oregon, and,
later. when Hill decided that the time
had come TO take over the property,
through which extends the lamath Riv-
er Railroad. he sent his son lin law.
Samuel Hill, to this city to confer with
Lindley at the Palace Hotel. They were
together several days. Hill returned
to the north and Lindley went back to

walker. meanwhile, had perfected his
title to timber land southwark to
point within about seventy miles of

timber land on the eastern slope of the
Coast Range, thus anticipating for Hill
