MIT HELL AXDTONCiUE ARE ACTITE Korereded In (.eltlug the IncS aa War Yeleraa IVnilou BUI Threagb. United States. Senator John H. Mitch ell addressed the Senate, Thursday of ! last week, on bit amendment to the I pending bill to place certain articles en . tiering the United Kialet lioin the Pbilip- pines on the tree liat ; to levy a tariff of 60 per cent ol the Dingley rates opon ar- j tides not admitted to the free list, and to eliminate that portion of section three of the bill which provides that the eame tonnage Uz shall be levied on all vessels J coin ieg from our insular possessions as is levied on vessels coming from foreign 'countries. Mitchell stated that it was neither ex pedient nor right to apply to our insular ' nnsiHfuinna tlm aainA rnlu man, 'finer tnn I I n nige as is applied to foreign fessebi. Speaking of the proposition of granting trada concessions to Cub, Mr. Miuhell said : "That we have as a nation given a pledge that stable government shall be established and maintained in Cuba is conceded. This must be done and this is being done. But this pledge does not, I admit, impose upon us a duty to make trade concessions to the planters and producers of Cub which will militate materially against the planters, agricul turists and producers of our own country . Such a concession It not an obligation resting upon us, either expressly or by implication. Of course, if a reciprocity arrangement can be made with Cuba which will be to the advantage of our peui.le, or yhicb will not seriously affect adversely any American interest or Amer ican lalior, and which may be of benefit to Cuban interests, then by all menus let ns have it." ContinuingwMitchell said: "I submit further that if the policy en forced in the last Congress of permitting the products of Porto Kico to come to the Unl ed Stales at 85 percent reduction of the rates of duty imposed by the Dingley act, and later on entirely free, and this all largely in the interests of the trade and commerce of the people of the Atlantic SUtep, as well as the people of Porto Kico. be right, then, upon what princple 'of right or justice or eouity must the people of the Pacific Coast State pay the same rates on Philippine products com ing into ibis country that are imposed by the Dingley act? Why impose one rule on our insular possessions in the the Atlantic Ocean and another on our possessions in the Pacific Ocean ? What occult f jrce, if any, is operating on the Congress of the United States, and this, to), with Congress seemingly being con scious of the act, which seems to compel the Nation's parliament to arrive at such absolutely contradictory conclusions. "We should give the Filipinos." he urged, "concessions in trade which will instill Into ttieir minds encouragement, confidence and hope; which will caue them to realize the wide difference be tween the iron and hurtful rule of the Spaniard and (he beneticent anil helpful rule of the American." .Protect the Sugar Beet. Of the sugar beet question be said: "Let Congress strike out boldly against the manufacturing industries which have ripened the gigantic trusts and which have brought and are bringing to their owners princely individual wealth, but let Congress hesitate to strike down in ItB Infancy an agricultural industry like that of the sugar beet. The sugar trust, and certain other formidable combina tions that might be mentioned are able 10 stand alone. The beet sugir industry is not. The lormer do not need protec tion, the latter does." Senator Mitchell observed that the way for the United . States to hold its share of Oriental trade was to get con trol of the great transportation lines. Representative Tongue introduced a measure in i'i House, Saturday, pro viding for an irrigation fund from the sales of public lands. One half of this fund Is to be st the disposal of the Sec retary of the Interior for nse in examina tions and surveys to ascertain the extent to which arid lands may be reclaimed, location of reservoir sites, available amount of water and the gauge flow of rivers. The other half of the fund is to be placed at the disposal of the Secretary of Agriculture to conduct investigations of irrigation laws and investigate meth ods by which water may be conserved, distributed and used. Senator Mitchell introduced a bill Friday ratifying the agreement with the Kathlamet band of Chinook Indians, whereby they cede a tract of their Ore gon land to the government. Representative Tongue introduced a bill authorizing adult Indian heir to ell inherited lands. He also introduced a bill appropriating $35,000 to pay the Tillamook Indians for lands relinquished to the government. Senatjr Mitchell has presented to the Senate a memorial lo the legislature of Oregon, praying for an appropriation of $44,000 to relieve Carry county from Indebtedness Incurred in building a pxx-t road along the Pacific coast, from the Northern to Soothern boundary of the county. Senator Mitchell has presented to Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, president of the Convention of tbe National American Woman Suffrage Association, and to Miss Susan B. Anthony, his credentials as a duly accredited delegate to that convention from the Oregon Stste Equal Suffrage Association, signed by Abigail Scott Duniway, at president, and Ida H. Blaine, as secretary pro tern, of said Oregon ttate association, and he has been duly admitted as a delegate to a seat in the convention. Hiram E. Mitchell, son of Senator Mitchell, an Oregonian, nat been sp pointed at large, to be First Lieutenant of Artillery. Hiram Mitchell was cap tair and quartermaster daring tbe Spanish war, and was for a considerable time in charge of the transport Buford, which ran between New York and tbe West Indies. At Tuesdays session of the senate Sen ator Mitchell took advantage of a favor able opportunity and succeeded in hav ing tbe Indian War Veteran Pension Bill passed. T. A. Wood, of Portland, grand commander of the Indian War Veteran's is greatly elated over the pas sags of tbe bill by the senate, and is hopeful that tbe house will also pass the measure. He sayt : "Now that Senator Mitchell has se cured the passage of our pension bill in the senate I have full confidence in Con gressman Tongue, who has charge of the bill, being able to get it passed by the house of representatives. "Last session our congressmen worked very bard to secure a favorable report from the house committee on pensions. They succeeded, but when the re part was presented the original bill was so changed that it left out all of the Wash ington and Oregon war veterans. As they had not been mustered into the United States service it reckoned them as simply territorial militia. The report thus obtained paralyzed our congress men for a time; it looked to them as though nothing could be don to pension there old veterans. "Mr. Loudenslager, chairman of the pension committee, said, however, 'If yon can amend my bill so as to let your Oiegon and Washington veterans in and not admit other state and tenitoiial militia, I will favor its passage.' To find some way out of the difficulty Congress man Tongue wrote to the United Stales Treasurer to find whether or not Oregon and Washington volunteers had been recognized by the government and paid. The reply was that the government had paid them, and as these were the only state and territorial volunteers who bad been recognized in this way and made United States volunteers by an act of congresB, and who nad Deen paiu as United States volunteers, it set at rest the apprehensions of the pension com mittee. The letter from the United States Treasurer was filed with the pa pers in the pension committee's office to be used this session in connection with this bill. "Senate bill 640, which has just passed the senate, is a copy of Chairman Loud enslaver's pension committee bill with the amendment in substance that if they were paid by the United States then thev were United States volunteers. "The interview I had with the honor able speaker of tbe house of representa tive when in Washington D. C. last win ter was so encouraging, though he made no promises, I am justified in saying that he will permit the senate bill to come before the hoase of representatives for approval this session. Senator Mitchell lias giien notice of his intention to offer an amendment to to the Sundry Civil Ei.l, appropriating $20,00(1 for additional improvements to the Quarantine station at Astoria. Improve Harbors- Senator Mitchell has also given notice of several amendments he is going to offer to the River and Harbor bill unless the House inserts the amendments be fore, the measure reaches the Senate One of the amendments appropriate j $600,000 for the improvement of tbe mouth of the Columbia, the work to be done on the continuing contract system, the total cost of which shall be $2,000,000. Tbe lower Willamette and Columbia be low Portland gets $250,000, $175,000 of which is to be used in tbe construction of a dredge. Other amounts carried are: Columbia, between Vancouver and the mouth of the Willamette, $20,000; Colombia at Cascades, $30,000, a portion to be used in removing the rocks in tbe rapids near Cascade Locks; Upper Co lumbia and Snake, $28,000; for procur ing the right of way for a ship canal be ( Continued on page 7.) CITIZENS HOLD CALLED MEETING Decide to Pot Count j Ticket In the Field. DEMOCRATIC WAK HOUSES BOLTED Robert A. Miller, Chairman, Aaiborlzed te Name Campaign leminiitee efXIue Members. A meeting of about fifty "citizens," representing all tbe political parties that have fiom time to time come up beiore the people of Clackamas county in re cent years, except perhaps the Pi obi bi llon party, waa held in Oregon City Tuesday, in response to a call issued by the party leaders. After nearly an all day session it was finally decided that a "citizen's" ticket should be put in the field at the coming June election. Robert A. Miller, chairman of the Demo cratic County Central Committee waa Ibe chairman and O. W. Robbina, Demo crat, was secretary of the meeting. Both officers were cboeen as temporary in cumbents at the morning session wlucli waa held at the county court room. This session adjoarned at 12 o'clock, after numerous speeches bad been made by C. D. Laioarette, (dem.,) O. W. Easlham, (rep.) and other democrats and populista complaining about the various county burdens thrust npon the people br the powers that be, and ad journed till 1 o'clock o. m. The afternoon session waa he!d in Willamette ball. The question of a name was one of considerable discussion. There were a goodly number of Populist! present and while they did not object to the name "citizen," tbe Democrats, aouie of thorn, like Mr. Ganong and Dave Cuu field, wanted to slay by their party name. Wnen finally Mr.J. P. Lovetl'a motion that it is tbe sense of this meet ing that a citizen's ticket be pat in the field at the coming June elections, car ried, by about 40 to 10, Messrs. Cautield, Dribble, Vaughn and others of the old liners, bolted the ball. An attempt waa made to detain them oy explaining tbe why and wberefor, but they wouldn't see it that way, and left tbe building. A motion waa then made by Dr. J. W. Powell that the chair be authorized to appoint a campaign committee of seven to formala'e an address to the voters of the county; to call a "Citizen's conven tion and to apportion delegates to the same." Harvey Cross, who during the noon hour had prepared a set of resolu lions looking to the same end, read his document to the assemblage. Hip di tiered from Dr. Powell's motion only in a few minor details, substituting a committe of "nine" instead of "seven" and with tbe consent of the doctor, Mr. Cross's resolution ns, alter being pruned down some, were adopted. Chairman Robert A. M Her did not appoint the campaign committee at that time, but stated that he would take tbe matter up carefully and arrange the per sonnel of the committee to suit all the political faiths represented. During the meeting Democratic War Horse Uauong, whoa'l the nay through was stoutly against giving up the name "Democrat," asked the chairman a stumper. He said : "How is it Mr. Chairman, can you, as Chairman of the Democratic County Central Committee, call a meeting of that organization, and also act In the ca pacity ot Chairman of the Citizeu's pai ty, and make a call for a county conven tion?" Mr. Miller confessed that he was in a rather delicate position, but con gratulated himself that he was not out for any office, and thought be would come out all right in the end. Mr. Ganong was still unable to get through bis bead what was going to come of the Democratic party, and exclaimed in a loud voice: "Why, it is utterly impos sible to do away with the Democratic party; the party that stands and has al ways stood at tbe foundation of the (Continued on page 8 ) Makes the bread more healthful.
