Farming Interests Go on Record as Bitterly Opposing Shaping Legis lation Here by Outsiders. OREGON CITY, Or., Jan. 12. (Spe cial.) The single-tax movement In Oregon was punctured this week, by Clackamas County Pomona Grange at its quarterly meeting with Harding Grange at Logan, In a resolution that scores the men who are promoting the single-tax propaganda In Oregon under salaries from the Joseph Fels fund. Harvey G. Starkweather, maater of Mll waukle Grange, fathered the resolution and had an easy time securing Its adop. tlon. the main opposition coming from O. D. Robblns, of Logan. The action of the Pomona Grange, which has representatives from every part of Clackamas County, plaoes the farming Interests of this county on rec ord and shows the weakness of the single-tax movement here. The resolution follows: Whertas. It Is a notorious fact that a large amount of money Is being contributed to a fund to Influence lezlslatlon In the fitate of oreeon. and Whereas, such contribution eomes Is a large part from wealthy Interests outside the atate. and Whereas, such foreign Interests csn have no lesltlmate nor proper motive In shaping the legislation in our atate. and Whirua. suoh suggested legislation would provide for the exemption from taxation of a considerable portion of the wealth of our state, and would thereby additionally burden the lands of the state which are now bear ing more than thetr Just share of the ex pense of government, and Whereas, such legislation would be gen erally detrimental to the atate and especially so to the fanning Interests. Therefore, be It resolved, that we, the Ormncen f Clackamsa County. In district Pomona Orange, assembled at Logan. Or., oa thla 10th day of January, 1812. da de novnee this extraneoae campaign fund as a menace to ear system of government. Be It further resolved, that we condemn as un-Ameiicaa and unpetrlotto the distri bution of such a campaign fund. Be It further resolved, that we condemn the single tax as a most vicious form of class legislation. Pomona Orange also adopted a reso lution favoring the equal suffrage amendment to the Oregon constitution, and in another resolution the Grange urged the County Court to take over the Clackamas County Fair Association and manage that enterprise, paying off the mortgage Indebtedness of about $5000 and taking possession of the site near Canby. The next meeting of Pomona Grange will be held April 10 at Eagle Creek. FAMED POACHER SINKS N'OTORIOCS SCHOONER OAKMEX CITA IS WRECKED.

Raymond made a spe cial plea for the populating of the logged-off lands around this city, and he declared that the club's real aim should be the development of its tribu tary territory. He mentioned that In all the advertisements of the Portland club Southwestern Washington waa ad vertised and that many advertisements treated of nothing but that section. He said the commercial organizations or the Northwest wanted a live organiza tion here to whom they could refer lnqulrlers. That Kalama has under considera tion a site for one of the largest fac tories in the world was announced by Mr. Raymond shortly before the ad journment of the meeting. "In the United States there are but two factories manufacturing a partic ular product." he said, "the others are In Europe. In my trip East to promote the establishment of factories on the Paolfto Coast. I learned that the larger of the two American factories plana a branch here." Mr. Raymond's announcement was greeted with applause that lasted sev eral minutes. D. O. Lively remarked that there was no need In the Northwest for greater development of the cities: It was the country that demanded attention. The newcomer ought to be advised, he said. that be could , grow In Oregon and Washington what he was accustomed to grow at home; that diversified farm ing and tha raising of livestock waa Just as Important as the apple Indus try. Exhibits Will Be ikons. John J. Springer promised that if the Kalama Commercial Club would gather exhibits James J. Hill would arrange for them to be exhibited In the Wash ington exhibition car of tha Hill sys tem. City Attorney Stone, of Kalama, men tioned that this city planned to con struct a municipal public dock and urged the delegates to use their In fluence with United States officials for the opening of a channel on the Wash ington bank of the Columbia River. Superintendent of City Schools Davis said agriculture was taught In the schools of Kalama and industrial courses were being added.

BERLIN, Jan. IS. An nnprecedently heavy Socialist vote, which probably reached 4.000,000. and heavy Socialist gains proved, as expected, the feature of the 1912 elections to the Reichstag held throughout the empire yesterday. The election was marked also by the disastrous rout of the radlrala and far smaller Inroads Into the clerical and conservative majority of the last Reichstag than was anticipated. The results at 2 o'clock this morn ing, although far from complete, show that the Socialists have captured 21 seats from the non-Socialist parties and lost only two, a gain of 19. They also have entered Into some re-ballots which would make It seem that they are almost certain to gain the 81 seats they held at the dissolution of the Reichstag in 190 and probably a few more. TEACHER HAS CHAMPION Alfred Moselejr Scores Pompons ' Edncational Boards. STANFORD UNIVERSITT. CaU Jan. 12. Pompous' boards of education which underpay school teachers are striking at the Jlfe of the Nation, ac cording to Alfred Moseley, head of the English educational commission, who spoke his mind on the subject today. That public school teachers generally are cheated out ol wnat neiongs to them by the men who run the schools. there Is no doubt, in the opinion of the distinguished Englishman. "America owes her position among the nations to her system of free edu cation," Mr. Moseley declared. "Ameri can teachers, however, are grossly un derpaid, and unless salaries are raised, your system will fall short. If Amer ica falls, the world will go back to autocracy and the sword." Americana, Mr. Moseley said, can teach progresslveness to the English and can well learn from them honesty in business and a desire for equity among lawyers. "England is criticised for her aris tocracy," ho added, "yet you never hear of American graft and corruption among English noblemen. Their fam ily names cannot countenance graft. "The Idea of too many American law fen Is to find loopholes In the law, through which to defeat Justice. "Law schools must teach higher Ideals. The lawyer should be a peacemaker and not a grafting trouble raiser." Mr. Moseley does not think much of American newspapers. "The typical American newspaper. dealing in sensation and crime and so ciety rot is a disgrace to your country," he said. "The typical EngliBh news- : paper gives valuable Information," L TONG REFUSES TO OPPOSE WISH OP YOUNG CHINESE. Lee Maslnn. SInst Remove Emblem of Old Regime, Say 31 embers of Republic Party. The demands of the Young China As sociation that he remove the sign of the association from the doors of the rooms of the association on Second street, give up the society, which is said to be an imperialistic body, and publicly pro claim hie allegiance to the new repub lic, were presented by Lee Maglnn to his fellow tong members last night. They. It is said, told him that they would do nothing toward helping him. They said that the action of Chong Hwa Thursday night in upholding the Young China Association would also bind them, who were members of the Chong Hwa, and that they would do nothing contrary to the wishes of the Chong Hwa. Young Chinese and little children of the old town gathered about the doors of the Chinese Empire Reform Associa tion, at 66 1-2 Second street, last night and made a noisy demonstration, say ing that the sign would be down In a few days. No violence was attempted. MOCK WAR PROVIDED FOR House Committee Fixes Budget at $1,350,000. OREGON IAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Jan. 12. The House committee on military affairs hss apporeved an appropriation of 11,350,000 for Joint maneuvers for the coming Summer. The Secretary of War has tentatively out lined a plan that will be followed at some point on Puget Sound, not yet designated. The militia of Oregon, Washington and Idaho will engage in Joint maneu vers with regular troops from Van couver Barracks, Boise Barracks, Fort Lawton and Fort Wright. The exact date of the maneuvers has not yet been fixed. The plan of the maneuvers will be similar to those held In Massachusetts two years ago, when forces were divided, one half defending the City of Boston, while the other force undertook to capture that city. It is probable that Tacoma or some smaller town will be the objective point in next Summer's maneuvers. The war Department is now corres ponding with militia officers with a view to ascertaining how many mili tiamen will be available for this year's field work.

OPEN SHOP TO PREVAIL Thomas Kprle, President of Penn sylvania Steel Company, An nounces Policy Ho Denies Low Bid Is Blotr at Unions. That Portland structural Iron work ers will be given preference In the con struction of the Broadway bridge if they are willing to work under open shop rules, is the promise of Thomas Eaxle, president of the Pennsylvania Steel Company, of Steelton. Pa., who arrived in the city yesterday to repre sent his company when the contract for the bridge superstructure is let by the Executive Board. Mr. Earle says his company Is not attempting to break the backbone of organized labor in Oregon, as has been charged, and declares that the state ment of labor union officials that it was for that purpose that the company made unusually low bids for the work is absurd. He declares the low bids were , the result of a lull in work and were prompted by the necessity of the company getting a good-sized contract to fill in an unusually quiet season. New Blda Advised Against, "It happened that when the city ad vertised for bids on the Broadway bridge we were a little shy on work," said Mr. Earle last night, "and we de cided to go after the Broadway con tract. We knew the foundation work had been nearly completed and that work could be started on the super structure this Winter. This would ex actly fit our shop conditions, so we bid as low as we could on the work. "There Is some talk of the city ask ing for new bids. This is not advis able. I will assure the city that it will have to pay more for the work If it readvertlses for bids, because the price of steel has -gone up and the work could not be done at a figure as low as our bid. We made low bids with the hope of getting the oontract at once, and the sooner the contract is let the better It will suit us. We will begin work lmmediaely. "As to labor, I will say that the Pennsylvania Steel Company is In the field to make money. We have no fight with the labor unions and I can assure you that if we receive the con tract for the work Portland laborers will be given the work if they will take it. Open-Shop Policy Roles. "Of course we reserve the right to determine whom we will employ and our policy Is therefore for the dpen shop. We do not want to have to Import la bor and do not intend to do It because there are plenty of ironworkers here who can do the work. We favor Port land laboring people not perhaps for any sentimental or ptriotio reasons but from a plain business standpoint. It costs money for us to Import men and we will not do it unless compelled. "Whether the Pennsylvania Steel Company will sublet the contract for the work I cannot say. We will de termine this question when we get the contract. The possibility of our sub letting It may depend upon the date we receive the oontract. IX we have more HOI MEN WANTED .-; TU Cocoa M2I U utiMaiig soioi. pamtatln aittf Itcma "a ? work than we can handle expediently we certainly will sublet. Otherwise I presume we will do the work our selves." Mr. Earle says his call here has noth ing to do with the visit at the same time of Engineer Ralph Modjeski, who is on his way to Portland, the presence of the two men In the city at the same time being a coincidence.
