Control ot Commodities by Their

Interstate Commission. 4
3To Opposing Votes.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 23. Preceded bya
debate which indicated no hesitancy, but
rather a relish, in taking. acUon against
alleged, railroad combinations, the House
agreed -without opposition today to the
Tillman-Glllesple resolution, directing the
Interstate Commerce Commission to make1
an immediate inquiry and Teport regard
ing alleged restraints of trade on the, part
of certain railroads in the handling of
coal and oil. The resolution was not In
the form in which It passed the Senate,
and will go back to that body for its sec
ond action. The debate occupied an hour,
and consisted of a succession, of speeches
In denunciation of alleged practices of
railroads and an indorsement of the pro
posed investigation.
Fears Guilty May Escape.
The only note of apprehension was from
Mann of Illinois, who called attention to
the law which exempts, from prosecution
persons who may testify in the Inqulrj-.
lu this manner, he said, the guilty offi
cials, if any such were found, might e
able to. escape punishment. It was al
leged that the resolution in no way
changed existing law on this point, and
the belief was expressed that in making
the inquiry the Commission would exer
cise discretion In getting its information
from sources which would not exempt
possibly guilty parties. .
The House devoted the remainder of the
day to minor matlers and passed several
bills, among which .was the famous Mus
selshoals dam bill, which was returned
by the President with suggestions from
the Secretary of War aa to amendments.
The bill permits the creation of an im
mense water power on the Tennessee
River in Alabama, and has been pending
before Congress for several years.
The Tillman-Gillespie resolution was the
first business taken up.
Townserid (Rep., Mich.) presented the
resolution with a unanimous report from
the interstate and foreign commerce com
mittee. In explaining the resolution,
Townsend said:
Reasons for Investigation.
"This resolution was born of a settled
conviction among the people as reflected
in Congress that Injustice and wrong is
being done them, by certain Interstate
carriers of coal and oil. As members of
the National legislature, it seems to me
that it Is tli duty of Congressmen when
great complaints are presented by numer
ous citizens of high character against
conditions which are alleged to injuriously
affect producers and consumers of the ne
cessities of life, to at least investigate the
complaints with a iew to determining,
first, whether the complaints are well
founded, and, second, if wrongs are found
to exist, .to discover if possible jvhether
existing .jaws are being- violated, and,
third, if any new legislation is necessary.
"It bas been confidently alleged that
certain railroad companies have large
holdings of coal and oil lands; that
they buy and sell coal and oil; that in
other cases officers of these roads own
sufficient of the stock of oil and coal
companies, when used In connection
with the stock owned by the roads, to
enable them to control such companies;
that by reason of such ownership,
dealings and collusions, the two great
necessities of modern life coal and
oil are made more expensive to the
consumer, and at the same timelnde
pendent owners and dealers using these
products are injured, if not ruined.
"It is alleged that hundreds of own
ers of coal and oil mines and fields are
prevented from operating for the rea
son, .that the 'roads '. which under the
luw .should serve them- -either, -fail en-
transportation or else furnish them so
inadequately as to make operation Un
profitable. AIL In;Bovcr of Monopoly.
"The result of -this cai .only -be hat
every consumer, ot coai and oil is bud
ject -to the prices of a monopoly which
rc those of extortion and Injustice. -It
is possible that existing law may not
be adequate to reach these evils if
they are found to exist, but there can
be no doubt that the Government is
strong enough to protect its citizens
against any of Its law-made creatures,
and when publicity reveals an evil
Congress will be able .and willing to
apply-a remedy.
"The resolution as originally pre
sented to the House contemplated only
an Investigation in .relation to bltuml
nous coal. The Senate resolution In
cluded all other DtodUcts. The c-cntle
man from Kansas ", (Campbell) most
ably presented resolutions backed by
facts showing; that oir should be In
eluded. The committee believes that
carriers of all kinds of coal and oil
should be the subject of investigation,
and that the Interstate Commerce
Commission should matte it.
"This 'investigation should be prompt.
icaricas ana weu inauc. -r-
Grosvenor briefly Indbrsed -the reso
lution. -
Support -to the resolution was made by
"Williams, the minority leader, in a -brief
speecn.
Gillespie, as a olnt author of the rcao
lutionrsaid that since its introduction he
had irecelved manv letters, from both
Democrats and Republicans, and if 3ialf
that he bad heard was true, there was
a system of commercial brigandage pre
vailing compared to which the desperado
of pioneer days- was child a play.
Bill lor Alaska Miners.
Proceeding under call of committee, bills
were passed to require 573 worth ot work
annually on mining claims and 55 worth
of. work on roads and trails for each min
ing claim in Alaska; allowing forelm
ships to clear from American ports with
out examination certificates when the
countries to which they belong -recognize
American certificates -of Inspection; to
prevent foreign-built dredges from oper
ating in the United States, except
dredges now at -work in the United States
under contract
SOME OF THE REASONS ADVANCED BY MR. JOHNS FRIENDS
AND SUPPORTERS IN HIS BEHALF
Mr. Johns is a native-born citizen of Uie United States. 4$ years old. In
the prime of life and a type of the younger and progressive clement In the
Republican party. He is a pioneer of Oregon. He has resided 29 years in
the Willamette Valley and IS years in Baker City. He graduated from the
Willametto University with an A. B. degree in 1878. and was admitted to the
bar in 3 SSL He has always taken an active interest in public affairs. He
was elected Mayor of Baker City in 1S9L re-elected in 1S92, and again in
November, 1901, by the largest majority any candidate ever received for that
office. In June. ho was elected School Director for the fourth consec
utive term, and received every vote cast. He has always taken an active
personal interest in education affairs.
"Excluding saloons, Mr. Johns has the support and Indorsement, without
regard to party, of practically' every business interest in Baker County. He
Is qualified by nature, learning and experienco to fill'that position. He has
never been a factional man, is not a factional candidate, and would not be
a factional Governor. He has always been a Republican and a loyal sup
porter of its ticket and principles. His nomination would harmonlxe and
unite the party and insure the election of a Republican Governor. He Is
the choice of Eastern Oregon, which, in tho Congressional election of 1901.
cast nearly 7000 more votes than Multnomah County. Baker County is one
of the largest In Eastern Oregon, and In its whole history has never re
ceived any political recognition by the Republican party, cither state or
Federal, by election or appointment.
Charles A. Johns has been a man of affairs in the history of the state
and of Eastern Oregon in particular. His integrity has never been ques
tioned. He has a clean record and the support and confidence of the peo
ple. He 4s recognized as one of the leading lawyers of the state, and as "a.
campaigner has no superiors and but few equals in the State of Oregon.
No man ever had a stronger home indorsement.
parts of the territory, and that railway
development would soon make all points
accessible.
FALSE ALARM. ABOUT SUGAR
Philippine Official Says Product
Will Go to Cliina.
"WASHINGTON. Feb. 13. Tha Senate
committee on the .Philippines t6day con
cluded its hearings on tlai Philippine tariff
bill, which have been in progress for the
past month, and Chairman Lodge said
that he would probably call a meeting for
next Tuesday to decide upon a report.
There were three witnesses before the
committee today. They were C. T. Smith.
of Michigan, who opposed the bill in the
Interest of the beet-sugar makers: George
B. Rea, of Manila, and w. C. Wei born.
Director ot Agriculture or the Philippine
Islands, both of whom advocated the
passage of the bill.
Mr. welborn said that he bad chariged
tho opinion, advanced by him before the
House committee that the passage of the
bill would have the effect of bringing prac
tically all of tho Philippine sugar to the
United States. He now believed, be said.
that even if tho bill became law. much
of the sugar produced in the Islands would
continue to go to China,

Hepburn-Dolllver bill now pending before
Congress. The measure is practically a

procur lookV le 'ihe absolute divorce 'of
public carriers,- as iruch. from the produc
tion of coal as 'miners, which condition
ot monopoly nad created such a strong
feeling ot dissatisfaction and anger in the
bituminous and anthracite coal regions.'
He has already drafted an amendment
covering this point.
He said that something ought to be done
to compel the trunk lines to make con
nectlons with spurs and feeding lines and
glvo them fair treatment in the dlstribu
tion of cars and offer equal facilities with
other shippers.
Tillman stated that in making the re
port on the bill he would not prepare a
lormai analysis for presentation to the
Senate, but the report would simply trans
mit the action to the Senate, together
with a synopsis ot the testimony taken
before the committee. He has not vet
taken into consideration the question of
bringing the bill before the Senate, but
said ho would press It with the view of
having the discussion commenced as soon
as convenient and possible.
Solecism, Says Elkius.
Elklns characterized it as a "solecism'
to have a Democrat renort from Re
publican committee to a Republican Sen
ate a bill which had been reported bv a
Republican committee in the House and
passed oy a Republican House. He be
lieved that the bill should have been in
charge of Dolllver, who had Insisted that
it oe reported as it came from tho House,
and this especially as it was finallr re
ported in that shape. Elkins said that he
would have voted for tho bill if tho com
mittee would allow one amendment which
ue naa proposea ana which vitally affect
ed the interests of his state. West Vir
glnia. This amendment was as follows:
Square Deal for Connections.
That carrier of Interstate commerce ahalL
upon application, put In all necessary switches
to meet wants ot shippers, make prompt con
nections and ojx rating arrangements with
connecting branches or lateral lines, make rea
sonable and lust division of throat h rates and
make reasonsble And Just alloxan ces to con-
nectlnr lateral or branch lines for originating
rreignt. in case of the refusal or failure on
the parr ot such carrier to provide proper
awitcnes lor shlppens and to maXe proper and
suitable connections with connecting, lateral
or brunch lines, through rates and divisions
of tho ame and just and fair allowance for
originating freight, operating and running ar
rangrmente;( the differences between the par
ties shall be determined by the Interstate Com
jnerce Commission, and Mid carrier shall abide
by and carry into effect the decision or de
termination of the CommlKlon, and, failing to
do so, the Commission is authorised to com
pel said carrier to comply with lis orders
in the premises by "proper proceedings in the
Circuit Court of the United Elates In the
Judicial district through which the railroad
of such carrier may run.
Elkins declared that be would offer this
amendment in the Senate and secure
record vote, in the hope that it will be
adopted. He believed that the coal ques
tion bad been settled to a large extent by
the recent decision of the Supreme Court.
He pointed out that, while he was ear
nestly in favor of a prevision .for a court
review and would have supported the bill
if that amendment had been added to it,
at the same time be believed good results
would have been achieved by the adop
tion of bis amendment relating to lateral
lines.
