ANT|-HARR|MAN MEN
ARE ACTIVE
PORTER BROTHERS OF SPOKANE
PLAN HARD CAMPAIGN
AGAINST MAGNATE

The extent to which the independent
interests. in the person of Porter Bros.
Of Spokane. are carrying their battle
with Hartman for the central Oregon
eye. is shown by the following article
from the Spokesman Review:
!" Not for ST. 900 900 would we sell. Is
the reply given by Porter Bros. of
Spokane i'm answer To an attempt said
to have been made by Hartman in
terests to buy off their enterprise or
build a railroad up the Deschutes val
ley in Oregon. according TO report
from Portland.
They can talk all they like. but we
are going TO build railroad up the
Daschutes.' Johnson Porter is quoted
as saying. They can call 1t holdup
or anything they like, 1t makes no
difference to us. for we are going To
do things. and they will all find II out
SOON
Porter Bros. are carrying on II
strenuous campaign Of construction. ~
contractors being already on the
ground. and In couple Of days 1000
men will be at work.
THE enterprise of the Spokane men
IL described az a most spectacular
dash up the Deschutes. Tuesday morn
ing the Hartman forces found thems
selves cut off from their own wagon
road and the Porter men were at work
on their proposed line of construction.
THE Twohvs have but two camps
established, while porters have five.
and will have two more by the close
Of the week. 1t Is a merry war be-
tween the Hartman and Porter forces.
johnson Porter says: We are not
watching the Hartman forces. but are
saving wood. II Hartman Is in good
faith he will proceed mt once. They
watch us like hawks. When we want
to know where to locate one al our
teams all we have to do Is to ask
some Hartman man and he can tell
us in "A minute without any expense
to US. While they watch us work we
go ahead and do things.
a report from Portland says that
all doubt that James J. Hill Is the
power behind the anti Hartman inva-
sion of central Oregon may he
brushed aside. II IL also stated that
IL liz the purpose of Porter Bros. to
decide upon course of action that
shall further harass the Hartman
forces.
j. c. Twohy is quoted as saying
that the Hartman construction will go
right ahead rs aggressively as 1t can
be pushed. and that his firm would put
/. af in
the field that can be raked together.
Twohy Bros. are figuring on opening
up offices In Portland so as to be able
to direct their operations up the Des-
chutes Mt closer range
