HAYWOOD Held IN
HIGH ESTEEM
COMMUNITY WOULD ASSIST HIN
10 SECURE RIGHT or way ON
ASSURANCE HE WOULD TAKE Upl
THE PROPOSITION PERSONALLY.

Mr.. William Reid has sent q telegram
to Manager Whyte Of the Chamber of
Commerce reading al follows:
President Hawgood after carefully In.
vestigating everything fears that your
executive committees influence could
not ut present secure the nix miles
ownership Of rights of way desired
Mr. Hawgood arrived III The city Tues.
day night and early yesterday morning
went out to the right Of way accom-.
panied by bis engineer, MIR. Campbell.
Late last evening they returned and
President Hawgood will be in the city
tomorrow looking up matters In connec.
tion with the enterprise.
From The indications It would seem
now that II Mr.. Hawgood sees 1T TO-
come to the front as representative
for this railroad enterprise that the
members Of the Chamber Of Commeree
would very likely take up the PROPOSE
tion with him direct. Those who. know
Mr. Hawgood say that bis reputation as
an engineer In Los Angeles Ii of The
very bert while his financial standing
N good 10 far as It goes, md thst he -
IN touch with many prominent fnanciers
Of Southern California who would be
more than pleased to put money In an
Oregon enterprise II he could recon-
mend 1t.
When Mr.. Hawgood's name was first
mentioned In connection with the r. O.
& s. O. Railroad proposition . special
committee was appointed to inyesti.
gate the proposition and especially look
into Mr. Hawgood's record, and the
committee reported fayorably upon
both. showing that Mr.. Hawgood was
held III high esteem In this community
70 far All he, was known. There il
probably no doubt Of the fact that Mr.
Hawgood has made mistake In not
taking up this proposition personally
and visiting Astoria before he has.
While there are those who deprecate
the action OF the executive committee in
tacking on $250,OO0 bond to this rail-
road proposition because Of the fact
that William Reid Is connected with it
and was not held to be In good financial
repute, yet all Of the citizens, including
the members Of the executive commit
tee without the peradventure Of doubt
would be glad to have Mr.. Hawgood
shoulder the responsibility Of this rail-
road proposition and assure the citizens
Of Astoria that the railroad il one con
templated In earnest and win be built
II the right Of way Is secured for him.
There Il probably not the slightest
doubt but that many citizens would see
fit to give him the right Of way a.
though they hesitate to turn it over
to any railroad company, the only
known promoter Of which is William
Reid. This may not be as it ought to-
be but II Is probably q statement Of
facts plainly put.
