WILSON BEHIND IT
Preston Railway Bill Unde
niably His Scheme.
REFORM IS NOT TRUE INTENT
The Source of Its Support Indicates
That Glorification and Profit of a
Political Machine Prompted
Its Conception.
OLYMPIA, "Wash., Feb. 3. The recent
and somewhat qualified denial by the or
gan of ex-Senator John I.. Wilson that
the latter Is behind the proposal to cre
ate a state railway commission on the
lines laid down In the pending Preston
bill, has created much surprised comment
among politicians throughout the state,
and particularly among those who have
been In Olympla since the opening of the
Legislature, and who are conversant with
many facts concerning which the general
public is Ignorant.
It Is not the purpose of The Oregonlan
correspondent to enter Into a discussion
of the merits of the Preston bill from a
technical standpoint. To ascertain and
point out political manipulation and
machination, however. Is peculiarly within
the province of the newsgatherer, and
such is the purpose of this article.
For many years there has been a de
mand on the part ot many farmers for
the creation of a railway commission, and
this demand was recognized In the last
campaign by both candidates for Gov
ernor, who, in public speeches, pledged
their efforts to secure the end desired.
Mr. Frlnk, the Republican nominee, aside
from his other delinquencies, one of which
was the ardent support given him by Mr.
"Wilson, was peculiarly unfortunate In his
railroad attitude, and this fact contrib
uted materially to his humiliating defeat.
In the first place, he had voted against
the creation of a railroad commission
when In the State Senate, and the farm
ers were reluctant to believe that he had
experienced a change of heart as his cam
paign promises would seem to Indicate.
In the second place, the railroad In
terests, for some reason that has never
been satisfactorily explained, were not
satisfied with him, and men high In rail
road councils, Republicar.3 in good party
standing voted against hl-n. In short, he
was crushed between the upper and nether
, millstones of railroad and anti-railroad
interests.
When Frlnk was defeated, Mr. "Wilson,
who was responsible for his nomination
more than any other man, waxed ex
ceedingly wroth, and, as has happened
before in his career, threw dignity to the
winds and said things. In the presence
of a number of gentleman, the ex-Senator
declared that he would wreak vengeance
on the railroads for their opposition to his
candidate. He coupled with this a threat
against the liquor interests, which also
opposed Mr, Frlnk. These remarks Mr.
"Wilson made In Republican state head
quarters the night following the election,
when It had become apparent that Mr.
Frlnk was hopelessly beaten.
Matters drifted along until the assemb
ling of the Legislature, when, on the
opening day. Senator Harold Preston, of
King County. Introduced a bill providing
for the creation of a railway commission
and vesting the appointment thereof In
the Governor, the Lieutenant-Governor
and the State Auditor, or a majority of
them. The Lieutenant-Governor Is Hon.
Henry McBrlde. a politician, who for some
time back has affiliated with the Wilson
faction, and who was nominated as a re
sult of the Wilson combination In the
last state convention. Mr. McBrlde Is the
presiding officer of the State Senate, and
he appointed a committee that straight
way reported the bill favorably. The
committee was made up of men who are
either supporters of Mr. Wilson himself,
or whom the conditions of politics have
forced Into an affiliation with the so-called
Wilson faction, which Includes many
others besides supporters in the abstract
of Mr. Wilson himself. The fight on the
measure had not progressed very far un
til It became apparent that every simon
pure Wilson man in the State Senate was
enlisted among the supporters of the bill.
The adverse political fortune which Mr.
Wilson has encountered during the past
few years has swept the greater number
of his former allies out of the State Sen
ate, but what few of them are left, all
ranged themselves behind the commis
sion bill, and have been fighting ever
since for its passage.
To enumerate: Nobody will question the
loyalty of Senator Herman D. Crow or
Senator Oliver Hall, respectively of Spo
kane and Whitman Counties, to Mr. Wil
eon. Early and late they have supported
him. Mr. HalMo such an extent that he
has probably ruined himself political
ly. These gentlemen are the" stanchest
advocates of the Preston bill In the Sen
ate. alde from Mr. Preston himself. Sen
ator Megler, of Wahkiakum County, has
followed the shattered fortunes of Mr.
Wilson into the last ditch of despair and
desperation, and he, too, has aligned him
self with the advocates of the Preston
bill, and thus far. at least, has resisted
every effort to dislodge him. Likewise
Senator Moultray. of Whatcom, who,
while not so prominent as the other three.
Is rated as a straight-out Wilson man. He
also is an ardent supporter of the Pres
ton Mil. as Is Senator Sumner, of Sno
homish, who was nominated as the result
of a Wilson primary victory In his coun
ty last Fall.
To look over Into the Democratic camp,
the attitude of Senator Warren W. Tol
man. of Spokane, Is significant. Mr. Tol
man is a relative of Senator Wilson by
marriage, and one of his ardent friends.
After making an apparently feeble ef
fort to have the Preston bill so amended
as to confer the appointive power on the
Democratic Governor, he surrendered, and
tacitly stated that he would support the
bill as It now stands.
The Mil has other advocates, true. Some
of them are sincere, but a majority of
them have been brought Into line by
trades and combines. Certain goods. In
the shape of committee chairmanships,
promise of office and the like, were de
llvered to them, and In return thev are
expected to aid In the passage of the
Preston MIL It is difficult to believe that
were not some political object sought by
the Mil, Its appointive clause would be
framed as It is. To the ordinary observer
It would seem that were Mr. Preston and
his associates actuated by pure philan
thropy and honest desire to genuinely
benefit the oppressed and down-trodden
wheat shipper of the bunch-grass district
they would have been wiling to have Gov
ernor Rogers appoint the commission.
Xobody In this state, outside the Wilson
sanctum sanctorum, seriously questions
the sincerity of the Governor with respect
to railroad legislation. At all times he has
advocated the creation of a railroad com
mission and the reduction of freight rates.
The farmers east of the mountains have
faith in him. and they demonstrated It
at the polls by giving him a heavy ma
jority. Eery man who is acquainted with
the Governor believes that were the
power to appoint a commission vested "in
him, he would make an earnest en
deavor to select one that would work for
the Interest of the farmer, however suc
cessful they might be In the endeavor.
But Mr. Proston is unwilling to have the
commission appointed by the Governor.
On the contrary he drafts and presents a
bill that confers the power on two men
who owe the fact that they are in public
life to John L. Wilson' That is a fact,
and no man, be he even the veriest novice
In state politics, will attempt to contro
vert It among other Intelligent men.
The usual scarecrows are being exhib
ited to a gaping populace in connection
with the Preston bill. Men who have an
nounced their opposition to It are being
branded as tools of railroads and as cor
poration lackeys. Insinuations are being
thrown out, and an effort Is being made
to bulldoze and cajole unwilling Senators
into line. The fact is that no man. what
ever may be the sentiment In his district
relative to the commission idea, need be
ashamed to face his constituents after
voting against the Preston measure.
There are scores of honest men In this
Legislature who are opposed to the meas
ure, and who, speaking from the view
point of Intelligence and common sens
take the position that It Is conceived In
humbug, and fraught with a design for
somebody's future poltlcal benefit. It Is
not fair to these men to charge them with
being In the employ of the railroads. They
believe, and with reason, that the bill Is
not presented for the benefit of the farm
ers, but rather for the glorification and
profit of a political machine that was re
pudiated by the people of the state, irre
spective of party, at the last election.
It may be admitted that Mr. Preston
and Lieutenant-Governor McBrlde have
plans of their own relative to the future
operation of the bill, should It pass, and
that they are not actuated Entirely by a
desire to benefit Mr. WUson and his ma
chine; but behind the whole plan lurks the
ghostly form of Wilsonlsm as the people
of this state have learned to recognize
and understand It, and It is not surpris
ing that men sincerely desiring reform in
railroad legislation shrink from the Pres
ton measure, and regard it not as reform,
but as a long step backward, or at best
a leap into Inky darkness.
FORMER OFFICIAL UNDER FIRE.
Ex-Land Commissioner Bridges Ac
cused of Wrong: Conduct in Office.
OLYMPIA. Feb. 3. Several days ago it
was stated in these dispatches that there
were rumors of something wrong In the
administration of the outgoing State Land
Commissioner, Robert Bridges. Some of
the matters therein suggested have al
ready gotten Into court. A suit was filed
against Mr. Bridges at Ellensburg the
other day. All that Is known about the
matter here Is contained In a special dis
patch to a Seattle paper, which reads as
follows:
"Ellensburg, Feb. 1. A suit has Just
been filed in the Superior Court here by
W. B. Strattqn, Attorney-General, repre
senting the state. and assisted by
Pruyn & Slemmons. local attorneys,
against E. E. Wager and wife. H. R.
Weatherall and wife, S. T. Packwood and
wife, and Robert Bridges and wife.
"The complaint sets forth that between
October 19 and December 16, 1899. Wager
made application for the purchase of sev-i
eral parcels of' school land lying within
two miles of the town of Cle-Elum, com
prising in all 951 acres. The compla'int al
leges Jhat Robert Bridges, the then Com
missioner of Public Lsids, Issued a con
tract to Wager fyr these lands at-$10 per
acre, and that Wager assigned certain of
these parcels to H. R. Weatherall,' of
Thurston County, the consideration
named being $1, and the same was re
corded in the office of the Auditor of Kit
titas County. One contract was assigned
by .him to S. T. Packwood.
"The allegation was made in the com
plaint that these lands were of no value
.for agricultural or grazing purposes; that
little or no timber remains upon themr
and that they are valuable for coal only,
Immense veins of which. It Is alleged, un
derlie the lands, which are In the Roslyn
coal belt, one of the tracts adjoining a
working mine at Cle-Elum; that these
lands were then and are now worth from
$75 to $150 per acre, and have a prospective
value of $300 an acre.
"The complaint avers that Bridges knew
thls and that he and Wager conspired to
defraud the tsate, so that he and Bridges
might corruptly obtain large sums of
money; that Bridges withheld from the
otner members of the land commission
the true value of these lands; that Wager
agreed to pay to Bridges a large sum of
money $3400, and also 160 acres of this
land; that -on April 28, 199. Wager as
signed to Weatherall one contract, and
about the same time paid Bridges $3400
as part of the profits, and that thereafter
Wager paid or caused to be paid to the
state $1600; that the assignment to Weath
erall was without consideration.
"It Is further alleged that Frank Ter
rlce was named by Bridges to appraise
these lands, and that In connivance with
Bridges and Wager he fraudulently ap
praised them as agricultural and grazing
lands, and gave them no value as coal
lands, and withheld their true character
from all members of the commission ex
cept Bridges; that there were no Improve
ments on these lands, but that he placed
the value of Improvements at $350.
"Plaintiff prays that the contracts be
declared fraudulent and void; that they
be rescinded and i,ot aside, and that the
deed between plaintiff and Weatherall be
declared fraudulent," null and. void, and
that It be cancelled.
"The plaintiff offers to Testore to defend
ants, or whoever is entitled to tho same,
all moneys that have been paid to the
state, less the appraised value of the
timber."
The filing of this suit is likely to precip
itate an airing or Bridges' administra
tion during his entire term, and his ene
mies assert that an investigation will re
sult In startling disclosures being made.
Attorney Slemmons, whose name Is men
tioned in the foregoing dispatch, was In
Olympla for several days subsequent to
the meeting of the Legislature, and laid
the entire matter before Attorney-General
Stratton, who evidently believed that
something was wrong, for he has joined
In the suit on behalf of the state.
The joint committee to Investigate the
conduct of the state executive offices for
the past four years consists of Senator
Smith and Representatives Faulknor and
Dawos, Republicans, and Senator Garber
and Representative Moore, Democrats.
They have not yet commenced work. It
seems probable that the committee will
ask to be .allowed to conduct Its Investi
gations and mako report to the Governor
after the Legislature adjourns. The task
of going through the books is an enor
mous one, and will require the assistance
of several clerks and an expert book
keeper. The committee has not even or
ganized as yet.
Bnrslnrs Raided Tacomn Honses.
TACOMA, Feb. 3. Burglars today
raided the houses of four ministers, se
curing about $100 in cash and several gold
watches. Three other residences were
also entered, but it le not known what
amount of booty was secured. Last Sun
day presumably the same gang made a
similar raid on houses of British resi
dents, who were attending memorial
services. The gang is said to be com
posed of high-class cracksmen from
Minneapolis and Chicago. No arrests
have been made or any plunder recov
ered. PROMINENT MINISTER SHOT
Assailant Husband, "Who Charges
Him With Criminal Assault.
NEW YORK. Feb. 3.-Rev. John Keller,
secretary to Right Rev. Bishop Starkey,
pastor of Trinity Episcopal Church Mis
sion In Arlington, N. J., and chaplain of
the First New Jersey Regiment, was
shot and seriously wounded by Thomas
B. Barker In Arlington this morning.
The shooting, it is said, was the result
of a disclosure made by Barker's wife,
although Keller denies the accusation
made against him. Barker, after the
shooting, surrendered to the police and
was locked up.
According to a story told by Barker, his
wife last night told him that the Illness
from which she had suffered for nearly
a year was due to an assault committed
on her at her home by Rev. Mr. Keller.
The assault, it Is alleged, was cqm
xnltted after a. hard struggle, during
which Mrs. Barker became unconscious.
INDIANS OF PITT RIVER
THD WASHINGTON OFFICE ADVISES
AGAINST REMOVAL.
They Should Stay Where Their An
cestors Lived More Boarding
Schools Not Expedient.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 26. In view of the
recent agitation as to what shall be done
with the Pitt River Indians, of Northern
j forts of Agent Applegate and- others of
tne luamatn agency to nave mat Dana
moved to the Klamath reservation, Repre
sentative Moody addressed a communica
tion to the Commissioner of Indian Af
fairs, asking for his opinion as to the ne
cessity for action in the matter, and to
be advised what legislation, if any, would
be required in the premises. In reply to
his inquiry, he received the following com
munication from the Indian Officer
'The petition 'you filed In this office con
sists of two" parts, one of which is ad
dressed to this office and the other to the
Senate and House of Representatives. In
the first-named petition it Is recited that
the Pitt River Indians, although wards
of the Government, have never been as
sisted In sxnv arnv n-nA hnva npvflr VwAn
an expense to the Government; that In
eariy times tne mamatn ana .aioaoc ana
Piutfi Indians enrrtpd nwav mnr n thplr
people as captives, the Unlid States sol
diers cnasea tnem irom place to place ana
killed many of their people, and their
land was taken away from them without
compensation being made therefor, al
though other tribes were well paid for
their land; that finally a school has been
established at Fort Bldwell, which Is too
remote to" be of practical use to their
people; that different parties have been
appealed to for assistance In securing
the establishment of a school in their vi
cinity, but that this has' never been done.
"They accordingly ask the Government
to give them back a part of their lands
as a reservation, and that a boarding
school be established among them.
"The second petition, which precedes
the signatures of the Indians, was evi
dently prepared by white citizens or neigh
bors of -these Indians,, and recites the fact
that the latter have, become an Integral
part of the community, conforming to the
local laws, customs and civilization; that
they are steady. Industrious, and a .moral
people, but that they are without educ
tlonal facilities, wherefore the establish
ment of a boarding-school among them Is
urged and requested.
"Respecting these Indians, you are ad
vised that allotments In severalty under
the provisions Of thp fourth spntlnn rf
the general allotment act, of February 8,
aooi, as amenaea .February 28. 1891, have
been made on the public domain. In the
Susanvllle, CaL, land district, to C90 Pitt
River Indians, and similar allotments to
70 members- of this tribe In the Redding.
Cal.. land district.
"Since said allotments were made, from
five to eight ytears ago. the department
has at different times been urged to as
sist these allottees In establishing them
selves on their allotments, by giving them
stock, wagons and farm Implements. In
October last the office sent Special Al
lotting Agent W. E. Casson into that
locality for the purpose of inquiring into
the condition and needs of these non
reservation allottees In order that as
sistance alonir the nrnnpr Ilno miu. i.
afforded them. If practicable. On Novem
ber M. uw, mt. uasson reported respect
ing the Pitt River Indians. He stated
that the lands allotted to these Indians
were so unsuitable, as a rule, for farming
or grazing purposes, that the Indians
could not make a living for themselves
and families thereon. In view of this
fact he expressed the opinion that it
would be uspImo to fiiT-nioh .v. ii
stock or implements, and he recommended
w.-v .. aoo.ol.rtm.c mong tnese lines be af
forded. The Indians Tin ooM ,i.
the white people, and gain a living in
that way. He strongly recommended,
however, that additional enVmni ,.mi
be afforded these people, and that a board-
uig-scnooi De established In their midst.
"It may be remarked in this connec
tion that there nro nhnnt 19m .- t
- .. w IUU1C All-
dlan allottees in Northern California in
me two iana aistrlcts named, of tribes
and bands other than the Pitt River,
whose condition and surroundings are
caaenuauy simnar to those under con
sideration. "In View Of all th f.infe ond ..n..i.n..
In view of the fact that lands in severalty
ua.vc ucen given inese people in their own
vicinity where they can make their
homes, the office does not think It would
be practicable or advisable to attempt
their removal to the Klamath Reserva
tion. The office does not favor the policy
of adding to or colonizing Indians on
reservations. It Is believed to be best for
these Indians to remain 'where they are
and where they and their ancestors have
always resided."
The Indian Office has apparently been
receiving other petitions than the one
filed by Representative Moody; for, in ad
dition to the letter he recently received
from the Indian Office, he has a communi
cation from th PnnimfaQfnnA. r9 Tn4inM
Affairs, who says:
'Relative, to the petition of the Pitt
River Indians In California acirinr . o
reservation and a school, you are advised
inm it is not aeemea advisable to place
the Government to additional expense "in
organizing any more boarding-schools In
the territory named. The Pitt River In
dians referred to In the petition have tlie
privilege Of attending the Indian sr.hr.nl
at Fort Bldwell, which can easily accom
modate 150 pupils, there being only about
50 In attendance now; the Greenville
school, with a capacity of 100 to 125.
Is only about half full; the .Carson school
can also accommodate probably 50 or
more. If these Indians are so exceeding
ly anxious for the education of their chil
dren, these several schools are open to
their use and the Government will pay
the cost of transporting the pupils to the
schools. It Is not thought a good Idea to
build a boarding-school right in the midst
of these Indians. It Is better that Its
location should be some distance away
from the parents, the experience of this
office demonstrating that such locations
are far preferable to those In the imme
diate vicinity of the Incians. A num
ber of these children can also attend the
Yalnax and Klamath schools. The office
has exp'erlmented with several 4ay schools
In this section of the country, all of
which have been pradtlcally failures.
Thej- refer, to the fact n their, petition
that they have paid lawyers their money
with promise that they should have a
school In reach of tKelr homes, but the
school has never been built for them.
Concerning this matter, I will state that
every time It has been brought to the
attention of this office the parties have
been Informed that It was not the inten
tion of the office to establish any more
boarding schools In 'that section; that the
ones already in existence were for thete
benefit, and, if necessary, could be en
larged to accommodate any number of
children they might want to send."

CUSTODIAN FOR BUILDINGS
Congress Asked to Appropriate
Money for This Use at Fort Sherman.
WASHINGTON, Feb. L The Secretary
of the Treasury, at the request of the
Secretary of the Interior, nas transmitted
to Congress an estimate for an appro
priation of $480 for salary of a custodian
of. the Fort Sherman abandoned military
reservation, in Idaho. Some time ago
Senator Shoup recommended that Edward
Eaton b"e retained as custodian of this
reservation, but when he took the matter
up with the department he was informed
that there were no funds available for
paying this employe. An effort was made
to find some one to accept the position for
the use of houseroom, and other buildings,
but no one would accept the offer with
out salary. Senator Shoup In person at
tempted to find such a custodian, but
failed.
It seems that there are 57 buildings
upon the reservation, which are now ut
terly without protection. One Is valued
at $4500; one at $2500, several at $2000, and
the remainder at smaller sums, the entire
outfit being appraised at $53,150. The
reservation is adjacent to the town of
Coeur d'Alene, and In a country where
the Winters are usually severe. The
buildings, if left without some one to care
for them, are liable to receive Irreparable
Injury. On these grounds, Commissioner
Hermann, who has direct supervision,
recommends that Congress make an ap
propriation for a custodian to take im
mediate charge of the buildings, at a sal
ary of $480 per annum. This request Is
indorsed by the heads of the two depart
ments. A citizens' committee has been formed
at Aberdeen to take necessary steps for
the formation of a city library.
