Hi CONTRADICTED BY DUBOIS relief of oregon settlers est Colleague Denies Opposition to For- Rcserves and Committee , Shows Heyburn's Fig ures Incorrect, OREGONIAX ' NEWS BUREAU, Washington, - Jan. . 17. Senator Hey burn today delivered himself of a hot. Impulsive speech before the Senate Dubllc lands committee, in which he arraigned President Kooscvclt and In severe language denounced and con demned his forest reserve policy and the men who arc putting that policy into practice. Heyburn appeared on behalf of his bill denying the Presi dents right to create forest reserves and transferrins that cower to Con gress. Tn ine surorlse- of the committee Heyburn repeated the charges made in his letters, which the public read last Fall, which charges were officially dis proves He stated that the President had brought one-half the area of Idaho into forest reserves, but records were produced showing that only one sixth of the state is now reserved, and only one-fifth will be in reserves when the Shoshone and Priest River reserves aro "created. Vicious Assault on President. Heyburn, undaunted by the rebuke of the committee, viciously assailed the President for having published his correspondence relating to Idaho re serves, charging him with: bad fafth and undcrhandedness, alleging, .that the publication of this correspondence was absolutely unjustifiable. He arraigned Gifford Finchot and other officials of the Forest Service, for the vigor with which they extend ed reserves in Idaho against his pro test, and renewed his statement that these reserves were retarding develop ment; were shutting oft from entry vast areas of rich agricultural land, and were depriving miners and pros pectors of the use of timber adjoining their claims. All thess charges wero shown to be untrue. He also con demned the policy of exacting a fee for the privilege of grazing stock in reserves. Called Down by Dubois. In view of the difference of opinion between Serifetors Dubois and Hey burn on the forestry issue, the com mittee decided to postpone action on Heyburn's bill, whereupon Heyburn stated that he and Dubois had no ma terial differences on this or other mat ters affecting Idaho. "When the chair man turned to Dubois, the latter was constrained to say he lavored 're serves, that he approved all ?o far created and heartily recommended their extension to Include other valu able timber lands. The committee will report adversely on Heyburn's bill, for there la no sym- pathy with him on account of his per sonal grievance against thi President. He will, submit statements supporting his contention before action is taken on the bill. Heyburn informed the committee that he would soon make a speeon In the Senate along the lines of hit talk today. If he does, his arraignment of the President will oe even mors se vere than Tlllman'a speech this-- afternoon. Fulton's Bill Reported Favorably by Senate Committee. OREGONIAX NEWS BUREAU. Wasl inglon, Jan. 17. The Senate public lands committee today made a favorable report -on Senator r uiton s diu exienanig m provisions of the act of July 1, 189S. pro viding for the adjustment of conflicting claims to land within the limits of the grant to the Northern Pacific Railway to Include every bona fide settlement or cn t& made subsequent to January 1, 1898, and prior to May 31, 1S03, in accordance with the erroneous decision of the Land Office respecting withdrawals on the gen oral route of the Northern Pacific between Portland and Wallula, where the same has not since been abandoned. The bill Is amended to Include land in this area tiiat nas aircaay passea tu imv cnL ISLET II REVOLUTION SPREADS TO DOTS OF LAND IX. BALTIC. HEAR JDAST WORD FROM ROSS 3S'o Doubt His Carey Selection Will Be Canceled. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington. Jan. 17. On Wednesday. January 84, Land Commissioner Ross, of Washing ton, will be given full opportunity to pre sent to the Interior Department any facts he may possess showing why the famous state Carey act selection of 55,000 acres In the Yakima Valley should not be canceled. Mr. Ross admits he has no facts to offer which were not presented last Summer, when he was here before; he privately admits that the Secretary is bound to rule against him; he virtually admits that he has no ground whatever upon which to ask' for approval of this selection, yet he insists upon having another hearing. In order that he may not charge that the state has been unjustly treated, he will be given opportunity to present his case. The Congressional delegation, which will be heard with him. Informed Mr. Ross that. If the state selection would In any way Interfere with the Government Irri gation project, they would be compelled to ask for Its cancellation. This Is equiv alent to saying that the delegation Is against Mr. Ross, for the Reclamation Service has specifically stated that It will not undertake Irrigation In the Yakima Valley so long as these selections arc in the way. There Is no doubt that Ross will be turned down after his hearing; he knows it and admits It. When final action has been taken, one of the largest obstacles in the way of the Sunnyslde project will be removed and the Government be In a fair way to begin work. At the request of Senator Ankeny, the Reclamation Service will have an esti mate of the cost of the Palouse irrigation project in Eastern Washington reviewed by C. E. Grunsky. the $10,000 consulting engineer of the service. There Is no hope, however, of early construction of this project, because there Is no money avail able to pay for its construction, and on the most conservative basis it Is not be lieved it can be completed Xor less than J3.000.000. The original estimate was $G,000, 000. Probably in time this project may be built, but not until others in Washington are completed. f The Secretary of the Interior today withdrew from entry about . 25,000 acres adjoining the land recently withdrawn for irrigation purposes on the N aches River. It will form part of the Yakima project LIFTS EMBARGO ON PATENTS Hitchcock Revokes Order Suspend ing Oregon Land Claims. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Jan. 17. Secretary Hitchcock to day notified" Senator' Crearln that he had ice Prevents Russian Troops- From Landing to Suppress It Empire Prepares for Election. ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 17. In addition to the Caucasus and a few localities In Siberia, the- open revolt is now chlofly confined to small islands off the Baltic coast, where the difficulty of landing troops hampers the subjugation of the revolutionists. The icebreaker Ycrmak carrvlnj? detachments of marines and In fantrv. has been unable to reach the principal Island. Oscl. at the entrance of. the Gulf of Riga, ana is now awaiting llght-araft steamer to land the troops. Following the example of their brothers on the mainland, the peasantry of even the tiniest Islands In the Baltic have in stituted independent republics. One of these, on the Islet of Llnsuitt, probably the smallest state In the world, already boasts of a second revolution and a sec ond President, the citizens having risen and overthrown the first President. The present chief magistrate, janeenson, is addressing them in proclamations as "my faithful subjects." PREPARING FOR ELECTION. Parties Make Platforms, While Ter rorists Make Corpses. ST. PETERSBURG. Jan. 17. The holl- dav truce In Russian politics Is over and the new political parties are mustering their strength for Russia's first all-Important electoral campaign. The opening guns will be fired when the delegates of the Constitutional Democrats assemble to discuEs their elaborate platform, ine nartv reD'resents the advanced liberal opinions of the Zemstvo majority, and the platform will closely follow tnc resolu tions of the last Zemstvo Congress. The allied moderate parties, which arc standing on the basis of the manifesto of October 30. will also be early In the field. There will be a conference of the leaders from various parts of the empire here this week. This coalition, which em braces the party of law and order and six other factions, has chosen the name of Constitutional Monarchists, and will nom inate candidates In common, realizing that sinelv they are oo weak to meet the well-ortranlzed Constitutional Democrats. or even the Social Democrats and Social Revolutionists. During the holidays the pacification of the country has been steadily going lor- ward. By an unsparing use or ine mili tary and wholesale arrests of the leaders of the fighting organizations, tne revolu tionists have been driven underground and have been forced to return to their old methods of assassination. Not a day nasses without reports of the murder of obnoxious officials. So far, St. Petersburg has escaped, owing to tne demoralization of the Terrorists here and the activity of the police.
