BIG INDUSTRY. WITNESS MAKES PLEA TOR TARIFF Man Who Organized Trust Says Ger many Can Sell on Pacific Coast For Let Than Home Factories. NEW YORK, Aug. 4 Charles M. Schwab, now a competitor of the United States Steel Corporation, to day revealed that corporation before the House committee of inquiry as the child of his own brain, reared by J. P. Morgan, with the acquiescences, since regretted, of Andrew Carnegie. Mr. Schwab pictured the Steel Cor poration as a legal organization, not formed to curtail output restrict com petition or maintain prices, but to de velop the steel industry of America. Aside from reciting the inside his tory of the origin of the Steel Corpo ration, he gave the committee much information relating to traffic mat ters, ore properties and steel manu facturers. The witness denied that the recent Brussels conference of steel manu facturers of the world had anything to do with fixing prices. Representative Sterling, of Illinois, led Mr. Schwab into a general discus sion of the tariff on steel, particularly as to the relations of the business in this country and Germany. "The real purpose of the tariff on steel," Mr. Sterling suggested, "is to protect you from the home market You say you can manufacture rails as cheaply as Germany, and you still have the advantage in that they must transport to our market." "Yes, but Germany can now trans port to our Pacific Coast for less than than we can ship from Pittsburg to the Coast," said Mr. Schwab. D. C.

When Jane essayed to raise some chickens Her husband thought to "raise the Dickens." He said "They'll eat off thir blamed heads," , And scratch out" all the garden beds. 1 For tho John raised both hay and grain. He sometimes took to "raising Cane." With his wife's plans like many a man; Women must do as best they can, Jane wished a good house for her chicks; John thook his head and answered, "Nix." So she fixed up the' old pig-shed, (The hogs were butchered, sold or dead), With roosts, a place for scratching, too; "A makeshift," sighed she, "but 'twill do." When winter rains came wandering by Her chicks were sheltered "in the dry." Jane fed -them grain and kale in there; The pullets thanked her, filled the air With song and cackle merry din And oh, the eggs she gathered In! The price soared upward day by day How high it went I couldn't say. Then John forgot he'd "raised the Dickens," And took an interest in those chickens. "More profitable," said he, "than grain." His wife replied, "or 'raising' Cane.' " Then added to herself, "I wonder, When prices fall if he'll "raise thunder!"

EVILS FAR FROM BEING CORRECTED Statement Strikes at Root of Trouble in Department Which West Said v Had Been Taken Out of Politics. J. N. Wlsner, of Oregon City, recent ly dismissed from the position of Stale Superintendent of Hatcheries by the State Fish and Game Commi sion on Friday Issued a remarkable statement In which he details the In side history that led to abolishing the office l.leh was created for him. He served less than two months. Mr, Wlsner has had wide experlenco In fish culture and bis dismissal has caused much unfavorable comment directed at the state Administration His stuenient strikes 'it the root o the evils that are said to still exist In the State Fish and Gamr Commission notwithstanding the promise of Gov ernor West that the conmissicn had 'een takui out of politics. The statement In pa-t foliowt; Having been dismissed from the service of the State Board of Fish and Game Commissioners without any exoneration or any statement to the public, I feel called upon to sketch for my friends some of the condition incident to my appointment, service and expulsion. The present governor's proposal of the commission plan, which 1 be lieved to be giving fine results else where, gave me confidence in his de sire to try to get results. I forwarded my application to him and later went to see him. About all I got out of him was that he knew"all about this fish business and game business, too. My ten years' of studying "this fish business" made me think him a re markable man and I accepted the in vitaion to be present that night when the proposed Commission law was gone over. I left the meeting with the impression that he did not know "all" about fish-culture but with the belief that he was sincerely interest ed. Waiting until the legislature had adjourned I went to see him again with the view of telling hlra of some policies which I believed the work needed and hoping he would sugest them to the Commission. The in pression I gained was that he felt tie had no further responsibility in the work. Clanton Is Elected. r After the Commission had organlz ed it elected R. E. Clanton to the posl- tion in question. Immediately upon hearing of his election I wrote him a letter of congratulation. On the evening of May 24 I was notified to meet a committee of one appointed by the Commission and up on doing so was informed they had provided the position of "State Su perintendent of Hatcheries" and of fered it to me. After talking over the matter I stated that I could not ac cept ae position unless I could meet the Commission and have the oppor tunities for misunderstandings clear ed up. This was agreed to and I went to Portland the next morning, finding the Commission in deep trouble. It appeared they had made the posl tion ani offered it to me without the knowledge or consent of Clanton. up on learning conditions he hastened to them and entered a very spirited pro test, threatening his resignation. Al though I had reported to the hotel at 9 a. m.. he kept them until 11:30, and they wore a sorry looking outfit when I met them. Ignoring the fact that I had made it nlain I would not accept without explanations, they said they thought it best we should talk tulngs over. It was brought out that they had made two departments, placing Fin- ley at the head of one and Clanton at the head of the other. They wanted a superintendent of hatcheries to act in conjunction with these two man. My questions elicited that the heads of the departments were, respective ly, to be held responsible In all mat tersadoption of methods, employ ment of labor, purchase of supplies, etc. I asked if I was wanted purely in an advisory capacity to which they assented. I then stated that I would not handicap the work and could not accept without first talking with Clan ton to ascertain his attitude towards me. This was finally agreed to. Goes to Astoria. The Sunday evening following my appointment I went with Clanton to Astoria. In the meantime I talked with him several times. He told me he could see that I could be of great service to both Finley and himself. On the trip to Astoria he explalrted a good many things of interest to me. In telling me of his appointment he dwelt on the stTong support given him by West even to the extent of building up assurances for him in the papers. I told him I was surprised he had secured Cranston's support. He explained that he had done some liini: for Cranston's section of the state and that he was absolutely sure : of hirn. I had heard rumors that the i Pendleton branch of the Insane Asy , In m had influenced Cranston , also i that the requirement that two East ; ern Oregon men should be appointed on the Commission might have pleas el him. I had not, however, thought 1 much about anything of the kind until then when I remembered how West and Clanton had both, presumably, I fought this, and Clanton's vivid por trayal of how Eastern and Southern Oregon men always stand as a unit aL'iinst the rest of the state made me : a bit suspicious. Ignored By Clanton. After the Astoria trip Clanton told me Finley wanted me to help him with his "getting started at reorgani zation. That was the end of all work Clanton ever gave me to do or al lowed me to do. I asked for work on all occasions to which there are many witnesses. I'asked for a chance to handle the fish-cultural records, to be allowed to take up Investigations and to be allowed to visit the sta tions. He let me visit Bonneville after he had done so without taking me but that was all. When I asked to visit other stations he said the men would quit if I did so. I said q 51 op Xaqi jt pus aui puss uqi up to the commission to straighten things out, but i.e wouldn't dare. On July 5 the Commission, with i Finley, Clanton nd myself, started out on the Southern Oregon trip, I DIVORCE. Well, Hint this county pnper, John As full ns It can bo ' Of divorce cases, sure, thinks I, Suppose 'twin you and me A bavin' trouble In the courts, I'd hung my heud in shame To think we wmx such quarrelsome folk, An" you would do the same. For If we sometimes disagree As I guess most folk no, I don't want all the world should know, Now honest, John, do you? It's wtuiien almost every time Who're wantln' to be free. They've ceased lo love John, Hick or Hill. Just as the case may be. It seems to me I'd feel so small, A wantln' to be heard In court, a telling of your sins, While you said not a word About my fallln's, how perhaps ( I d drlv' you to the wall, A buy In" high-priced hats an tolngj. You couldn't 'ford at all. An' had I d wasted as they say, A throwln' even more Out of the window with a spoon Than you packed thro" the door; Because I never had been taught To cook an' save an' mend, But that it wux a woman's right To gad about an,' spend. Yes. John, I know there are nian men For all are not like ou Who'd make a woman's life a curse No matter what she'd do. I'd up an' leave a man like that As quickly as could be. But not to marry some one else ou bet you I'd stay free! I like to think we're partners, John, An' neither la the boss. If we but pull together, dear? An there s no shlrkin' hoBs; How sweet the fellowship may be. How light the yoke an' load, As we together face life's hill A climbln up to God! SAMANTHA OF CLACKAMAS CO. was ordered to go and thought I would be called on for Information relative to proposed hatchery sites, etc. Qu the trip I was asked for no advice concerning any of the places visited. I attempted to talk to sev eral members of the Commission, but wag not allowed to do so. I have never talked concerning fish-culture with a single member of the Commis sion. I have talked some little with some of them concerning kinds of fish and habits of some kinds. When it comes to classifications of species. that is not fish-culture and I am but a layman. While on that "trip I sub mitted to Indignities that no gentle man would usk of any one. I did this simply through determination to prove that my stand had -been right and honest and to show beyond dis pute that I had not been and was not the trouble breeder. When the Commission visited the falls at Oregon City I took the liberty or asking the Government's represen tatlve to -be present, believing that his knowledge of local conditions would be valuable and feeling In visit ing his home town the courtesy was due him. He did not feel he could come unless asked by the Commis sion, so that he would know they wanted him. I approached one mem ber of the Commission who was not Interested and said he was not the president of the Commission. I saw the president, who regretted he had been thoughtless enough to overtook the matter and suggested that I try to get him. After seeing the consid eration given him I regretted having taken any part in the matter. Dismissal Is Kept Quiet. With my dismissal the matter was kept entirely out of the papers. One of the Commissioners happened to pass through Medford shortly there after. A Medford paper and I think the one edited by a defeated aspirant for a position on the Commission was the first to have the news. Economy was the reason given. : Why did they not tell me It was economy? Now as to economy do the sport men those, who pay for the anglers' and hunters' licenses know that their money supports a puuilclty depart ment. I have asked a representative of on? of the great dallies In -Port land if they would not gladly print news covering the accomplisnments of the fish and game departments statements of what has been done nd what Is being done, and if they would not be-willing to send a re porter to get such news. I was In- rmed they would and take it for granted that any of the-papers will do so. In face of this known atti tude on the pari of the press It has seemed necessary to employ a pub licity man to tell the hunters and fishermen-and fanners not so much what has been accomplished as what may be accomplished. It is not a newspaper man who is employed, but a publicity man Lewis M.- Head the man who writes the "Bay Qcean" advertisements, etc. As to the real purpose of such work those interested will have to draw theirown conclu sions as I have done. Take he Eve ning Telegram of July 22 and' The Oregonian of July 2.1. Remember that Head wrote The Telegram article and part of what was int The Oregonian and decide if it Is a case of build ing up the fish and game interests or of building up an impregnable per sonal nrichlne. In reading, over ihe great amount of such matter in The Oregonian of the date mentioned, re member that "State Superintendent of Hatcheries Wlsner" did not select any site on Spring Creek and did not discuss the matter with the Commis sion. That at a banquet In Klamath Falls lie simply stated without any authority from the Commission that the site "could be developed In a dozen ways." Remember also that "State Superintendent of Hatcheries Wisner" and "United States District Warden O'.Malley" were not consult ed relative to the fish way at the falls in Oregon City by R. E. Clanton, master fish warden, and see how much real newB you have. A Reliable Remedy Ely's Cream Balm it euicklrabtorbciJ. Suet Rtlirl at Ones.

It Is an Independent proposition and the factory will be . located here if the advantages are what the promoters believe they are. i The company contemplating starting the factory owns holdings of silica sand In Washington, but fuel being so high there the sand must be moved to a place where fuel is cheap. It re quires three times the amount of fuel as silica sand in the manufacture of glass and, as the company has lieen Informed that wood may be obtained as cheap or cheaper In Oregon City than any other city, with the advant age here of shlqplng facilities, Oregon City evidently would be a good loca tion for the plant.
