“generously” except on measures likely to influence votes, such as
pension bills, public building bills, and bills for the improvement of
rivers and harbors. Mr. Harriman and the Southern Pacific Company
had “improved” a national river, at a cost to themselves of about
$3,000,000; but inasmuch as they were then under a cloud of
unpopularity created by official and unofficial misrepresentation, their
influence on Congressional elections was negligible, and Senators
and Representatives might safely—perhaps judiciously—ignore their
claim regardless of its merits. The reimbursement bill, therefore,
dragged along without action for about three years. Hearings were
held, witnesses from California and Arizona were examined, expert
engineers were consulted, and the whole subject was thoroughly
threshed out. Memorials in support of the bill were received from
towns, communities and chambers of commerce in the Imperial
Valley; and the entire Congressional delegation from California, as
well as almost all the newspapers of the State, urged reimbursement
as a matter of simple justice. But Congress could not make up its
mind to do justice, either to Mr. Harriman or to a railroad company. In
1909, when William H. Taft became President, he at once took up
the matter, and in his first message to Congress referred to it in the
following words:
“This leads me to invite the attention of Congress to the
claim made by the Southern Pacific Company for an amount
expended in a similar work of relief called for by a flood and
great emergency. This work, as I am informed, was
undertaken at the request of my predecessor, and under
promise to reimburse the railroad company. It seems to me
the equity of this claim is manifest, and the only question
involved is the reasonable value of the work done. I
recommend the payment of the claim, in a sum found to be
just.” (House Report No. 1956, 61st Congress, 3rd Session.)
Two years later, when nothing had been done, President Taft sent
to the Chairman of the House Committee on Claims the following
letter:
White House
Washington, Jan. 16, 1911.
Hon. George W. Prince,
Chairman of Committee on Claims,
