ALASKAN RAILROAD

The building of the Alaska railroad
by the government seems now to be
settled and as shown by the vote IN
the senate it is not political meas
ure, a big majority of the senators
voting for the measure regardless OF
politics. The few voting against the
bill being both democrats and repub-
licans.
The measure was first recommend
ed by President Taft, and has since
ben recommended by President Will
son. The opposition comes form
those who dread even the faint echo
of government ownership of rail
roads. The Alaska situation is quite
different from that here in the states,
and what the government does In de-
veloping Alaska cannot be taken as
a precedent in the United States
proper
After the government builds this
road and establishes equitable rates
there the development of that coun-
try will be assured and no special in
terest can control its building.

Several papers are running the
"hot wind" electioneering doap for
John Manning, one of the Democrat
ic candidates for governor, he seems
to have adopted a scheme that so
far is working fine, if all those who
like his plan and write him as re-
quested, he will be provided with a
splendid list Of names to whom he
can address further "hot air.. OF
course he has figured that there is
money ready to finance such vast
undertaking as he proposes and that
there will be plenty of applications
from good honest farmers who are
desirous of buying farms on time,
and that the state will not be injured
at all by going security for anyone
who might wish to try the plan out.
All candidates are accused of hav-
ing wheels in their heads, and if this
is true, Mr. Manning has no doubt
his share ,and has them well oiled
and in fast running condition.

Editor Observer:
I read with considerable interrs
in your last issue of January 20th
the article signed "Reader" in re
gard to the Dallas Commercial Club
also the answer to the same in youI
issue of January 23rd. | realize as
suggested by the article of the 23r1
inst, that it is easier to knock thar
| it is to boost, but | do not belieI {
one is to be classed as, necessarily
knocker because they offer sug-
gestions, and anyway what would this
world be if it was not for the knock.
ers. The knocker is just as necessary
as the booster and in fact if there
were no knockers, there would be nc
boosters, hence if l may be allowed
the space | should like to make few
suggestions, bearing in mind all of
the time that the Dallas Commercial
Club has done some good work for
which they deserve great praise, for
instance the work incident to the To-
eating of the Packing plant, their
present efforts to establish cannery
and many other good things, but
should they on account of what has
been accomplished sit still and rest
on past achievements notice by
the Daily papers of January 23rd,
that the P. E. & E. R. R. is going
to run homeseekers excursions up the
valley so that prospective settlers
shall have chance to see all of the
varied industries, different kinds of
soil, etc, of the valley towns, making
short stops at each place visited, but
nowhere do l see that any of the
trains are to visit Dallas, in other
words, for years the S. P. R. R. has
against Dallas and Dal-
las business men Notwithstanding the
fact that the monthly reports of the
S. p. R. R. Co., show that more
freight originates at Dallas than any
other station in the State Of Oregon
with the exception of Portland, in
fact it is almost as much as any two
other towns in Oregon, excepting
Portland.
In view of the foregoing facts, and
they are facts, doesn't it seem as
though something was wrong some
where? About a year ago or such
matter, it was rumored that on
account of lack of room the S. P. R.
R. was going to build a new depot
at the foot of main street and what
was the result? A few selfish inter-
ests got together and went to Port
land and entered a protest against
moving the depot, and as you know
the Company put an extension on the
present building, which is a disgrace
to any community, and let it go at
that, in other words the Commercial
Club has allowed few self interest
ed members too often to run the af-
fairs of the club in the interest of a
little group instead of in the interest

other instances might be cited, bu

ial Club may be an instrument o1

members are honestly striving tt
make it so, but few that are in,

ten times had too much influence
The Hill line that has been surveyed
up through McMinnville, Dallas, Air
lie and on south will no doubt be
built in time, but might it not be pos
sible to get early action in the mat
ter if all of the business men of Dal-
las would sign an agreement to give
their freight haul to the Hill road
if built at once, such contract to run
for one or two years, or again might
not Mr.. Hill be induced to run line
over here from Salem if this freight
was given him and he was made to
know that he would get it7 Past
experience with the S, p. R. r. shows
that it is useless to ask anything
from it on the grounds of fairness
or right, the only way to get anything
from that road is by coercion; if the
Hill line had not been built up the
valley the S. p. would hardly be
equipping their lines with electricity
now or in fact making any other i'm
provements, their policy for years
seems to have been to take everything
out of the country that the traffic
could bear and put nothing back in
return, but at points where the Hill
lines touch wonderful change has
come and might not the Dallas Com
mercial Club by little negotiating
with Hill be able to change the sit
uation in Dallas 1t seems to us
that something might be done along
this line; it has been done in Other
places and I would respectfully call
the attention of the Commercial
Club to the matter. Also it might
be well" to remind the members of
the Commercial Club that at the
time delegation of the Club visited
headquarters of the S. P. R. R. in
Portland during the year 1913.
1t was reported upon their re-
turn from the Metropolis, that the
officers of the Company had prom
sed that by January 18th, 1914, the
Railroad would furnish Dallas with
train service in every way,
so there would be no further kick
coming fom the citizens of Dallas.
Was the Committee of the Com
nercial Club wrongly quoted or has
he S. p. failed to keep faith? We
ire inclined to the latter belief and
t seems to us this matter might be
aiken up by the Club with profit to
he community; matter of this kind
when pushed by an organized body
will often bring favorable results
where the efforts of single individuals
must fail. The Commercial Club is at
PRESENT, we understand, doing every
hing in their power to make a sue
ess of the coming County Fair for
eXt year and that is good, very
'ood, perhaps no other one thing
oes more to call attention of the
'ublic at large to our immense re-
ources, and in their work for the
air the Club is deserving of the
clip of every citizen that has the well
are of the County at heart, but there
) lots of other things to be done and
does seem to us that one of the
reatest of these is the transporta-
on problem, and that the Commerce
ii Club if they will go after it in
arnest can do more than any other
ody of men. Second Reader.
