At the solicitation of Sen ator Fulton, President Roosevelt has in terested himself in the public land situa tion In Oregon, and promises to see to It that thore shall be an adjustment of the administration of the forestry bureau and of the Interior Department which will be satisfactory to the people of Ore gon. During a prolonged conference at the "White House today. Senator Fulton fully explained the public land situation in his state, emphasizing the fact that the de velopment of many counties has been ma terially and needlessly retarded by the reckless withdrawal of lands for forest reserve purposes. He also explained the embarrassment In which hundreds of entrymen have been placed by the over zealous and unjustifiable methods that have been adopted by the department in requiring proof on timber and even home stead entries made In recent months. The Senator made it quite plain that the public land situation in Oregon is fast approaching a crisis and decisive remedial action is necessary to restore confidence and good feeling among the people. He said that while Oregon, as a whole, Indorses the forest reserve policy, its people do not want all the valuable lands Included within reserves, nor do they like to have settlers and those seeking to be come settlers humiliated by the aspersion that they are attempting to make fraud ulent entries, when In fact they are act ing in good faith. After his conference Senator Fulton said he felt confident the prevalent abuses would be remedied, as the President in tends to take the matter upf with the proper officers and insist upon a return to conservatism, not only in forestry mat ters, but in regard to all forms of public land entries. This probably means that before long a large amount of the area now with drawn, will be restored to entry and there will be a let-up in the ridiculous catechism through which entryroen are now put whenever they attempt to prove up on their claims. CAN'T FAVOR OREGON SCHOOL War Department Has No Authority to Allow It Rifles. OREGONIAN NEWS. BUREAU, Wash ington, Nov. 6. Senator Fulton hag been advised by the War Department, in re sponse to a recent question, that the Gov ernment cannot furnish the Pendleton High School with trifles for use of Its cadets.

The department, however, has on hand a number of Springfield rifles, of discard ed design, which it will sell for $3 apiece. Tho Senator has suggested to the school authorities that they purchase these rifles. TURNER IS FOR GORMAN. Ex-Senator Says He Is Logical Candi date for President.

SHIP WAS UNDEE, FULL STEAM Fact Brought Out in the South Port land Trial. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 6. In today's investigation of the wreck of the South Portland..one of themany disputed points was settled. It was that the ship was un der full steam when the lifeboats were launched. In response to a pointed question by In spector Bulger, Captain Mclntyre testi fied that ho himself had gone into the engine-room and ordered the Chief Engineer to put on full steam with the idea of try ing to beach the ship. The revised statutes of the United States provide that should the loss of life In such a disaster as that which befell the South Portland be directly traceable to negligence on the part of the officers, they might be prosecuted In the Circuit Court of the United States on a charge of manslaughter, and, if convicted, be sen tenced to a term in the penitentiary, not to exceed 10 years.
