WILL NOT DISCUSS HENEY Jiclicves Congress Will Adopt His Resolution. Concerning Oregon & California Land Grants Pre dicts Nomination of Taft. WHAT SENATOR FII.TON SAYS. snator Fulton reiterates hid dec laration of neutrality towards State ment No. 1 a expressed in his Hprerh at Corvatlis last -Summer. Denies that he has changed his at titude towards the statement. Peelines to discuss Ileney, but UI make whirlwind campaign of state In Interest of his candidacy for renonilnat ion and re-election. Predicts adoption by present Con gress of his resolution directing; Attorney-General to prosecute suits against Oregon & California Railroad Company (Southern Pacific) to com pel sale of lands In accordance with terms of jrranl from the government. Saya Secretary Taft will be nomi nated for President on the first ballot. KpnjinR emphatically that lie has r hanged his position on Statement No. 1 or any other iksuc before the people, t'nited States Senator Fulton reached Portland last nisht from Washington, personally to conduct his campaign for renomination and re-election. While he has not formulated a definite campaign programme, it will be the purpose of rVnator Fulton to cover the entire state as thoroughly as It will be possible in the three short weeks preceding the pri mary nominating election, which will be held April 17. "rhe Setiator will con fer with his friends in 'Portland today and arrange an itinerary that will best suit the limited time he has at his dis posal, but it is his intention to address as many people throughout the state as he can. Piscussing the reports that lie has modified his position as to Statement No. 1. Senator Fulton reiterated that his at titude on that subject was the same as he had declared in a public address at ('orvallis last Summer: that while he believed and always had believed that the people should elect their United States Senators, the question of sub scribing to Statement No. 1 was purely a matter of individual conscience. He aid: Attitude Is Unchanged. "I have made no statement for pub lication since arriving In the state and any statement to the effect that J have changed my attitude in regard to State ment No. 1 is incorrect. I have stated to friends since arriving in the state, when informed that I was credited with being opposed to Statement No. 1, that i the report is a mistake, for I am not anil never have opposed it. The only public utterance I have ever given on I he subject was in a speech I delivered at Corvallls last Summer, in which I said that, being a candidate for re election. .1 did not deem it my duty to attempt to Instruct candidates for the Legislature as to their duty in that re gard: that in my Judgment whether a candidate should or should not sub scribe to Statement No. 1 is a matter that must be left to the individual con science of each candidate. If he feels that he can subscribe to it conscientious ly, well ami good. 1 do not advise him against it. On the other hand, if he feels that he cannot, it is for him to determine, and I do not think it would he proper for me to Insist that he should adopt one course or the other. "It Is surnVioni. 1 think, for me to say that I am and have been all my life an earnest advocate of the election of Sena tors by the. people, and 1 shall support that proposition whenever and wherever the occasion shall arise. "This I have said several times today, unit from it. no doubt, emanated the re port that 1 had altered my attitude re specting Statement No. 1." "Po you expect any further attacks from Honey?" was asked. Indifferent Toward Honey. "1 am sure I do not know. I am not handling his end of it." was the reply. "I am entirely Indifferent a to wheth er or not he has anything further to say." "it is reported that President Roose velt has called llency off and advised that lie desist tn his attacks on you and your candidacy." was suggested. "f know nothing about it. 1 am not in communication with the gentle man. " Referring to the subject of the pro posed euit by the tJovernincnt to com pel the Oregon & California Railroad Company (Southern Pacltto) to dispose of the land Included in its extensive grant from the Culled States to set tlers at $2.50 an acre. Senator Fulton said he was confident the resolution, in troduced by himself and authorizing the Attorney-Genera! to prosecute all necessary suits to establish the rights of the Government in the controversy, would be adopted by both houses at this session of Congress. "Since leaving Washington. 1 am ad vised that my resolution has been adopted in the House." said- Senator Fulton. "The Attorney-General will prepare a separate resolution which villi guarantee protection to the inno cent settler the man who actually in good faith and for actual value has ac quired some of these lands. This reso lution will be presented soon, and will no doubt be clothed witli all necessary authority immediately to proceed to es tablish the rights of the Government. Innocent Settler to Be Protected. "All mention of the innocent settler was eliminated from my resolution, for the reason that the Attorney-General onsldered it advisable that the inter ests of the settlers be covered in an other resolution, fearing that to Incor porate the two subjects In one resolu tion might possibly jeopardize the in terests of the Government. 1 have al ways favored protecting the innocent settlers, and I am satisfied that the Attorney-General has no intention of dis turbing those who have acted in good faith." Senator Fulton confidently predicts the nomination of Secretary Taft for President at the Chicago convention on the tlrst ballot. He says Hughe is not considered a possibility in the Kast. Fairbanks. Cannon and Knox each hav ing a stronger following. "I hope to see Oregon do the right thing and send a Taft delegation," concluded the Sen- Come to the right shop, the Boys' Store, for boys from 3 years up, and you'll find no lack of variety and style in clothing, for your own little one.

WASHINGTON HOME TELEPHONE ANNOUNCEMENT The Washington Home Telephone & Telegraph Company has made all arrangements for immediate operation, and construc tion of lines and building. Along with those arrangements we are endeavoring to bring our offer to people at . home. We further announce that 2 per cent of the capital of this corporation has been subscribed to and we announce that this corporation is offering a portion of their securities to people at home, for the reason that every telephone user will participate in the profits of the company. The securities that we offer to the people are FIRST MORTGAGE S PER CENT GOIJD BONDS, together with 50 per cent in stock as a bonus. Our bonds run In denominations of 100, $oo and 1)00 each. There Is no better Investment in the market today and most conservative financiers in the East -are buying telephone securi ties, the same as they are buying street railway securities, railroad securities, gas securities and -municipal securities. They are all of the same class and nature. Telephone securities have been proven to pay the largest. We expect that the investor will secure at least, including the interest on bonds and dividends on stock, from 10 to 20 per cent. Remember that every share ' and every bond purchased from this company will participate in U our operations. Trie Sale of Bonds Is Made on Terms to Suit the Buyer The following: Is is item Just reported from a Loi Angeles paper, upon a Home Telephone Co. In Los Angeles, of a profit made In one year. Home Telephone Franchise Pays LOS ANGELES. Feb. 14. The Home Telephone Company, which five years ago obtained a franchise under a newly passed Legislative act, today paid into the city treasury S14,dS8, representing- 2 per cent of its gross earnings during the past year. The sum is the largest ever received by the city under the terms of the act. That makes a net payment to the city of $14,."00, representing 2 per cent on $729,400. One year's profit (to stockholders of the company. Just Think of a Profit in One Year to the stockholders and bondholders of $729. 400. Pretty nearly one-fifth of the money paid back to the? investors of the entire amount paid into the company. That is accom plished in one year. What will the following years do? Surely not less than the first year. In five years th stock holders get their money back, and have a security that any bank will bo glad to receive as collateral security. Remember, banks are the largest purchasers of tele phone securities and ail other securities under that head ing, and if it was not for. the financial situation at the present time, our bonds never would have come before the public. Eastern bankers are making the greatest profits from just such securities. The opportunity, is extended to you at the present time to secure an investment such as barks buy, and always will, at the same price bankers pay for it, with 50 per cent in stock as bonus. You can pay lor same on terms to suit, and participate in the profits "of the company while you are using their phone. Our aim Is to have every phone user a stockholder. We want the telephone user's support, assistance and good will, and for that reason this company has set aside $100,000 worth of bonds which we are today offering to. the people of Oregon and "Washington. That offer will hold good for a few days. The purchasers of these bonds will receive 50 per cent in stock, if purchased within a few davs. Thereafter we don't expect to offer any stock bonus with the sale of our bonds.

Hill Soon to Visit Portland. OTHER OFFICIALS COMING Trouble With Drifting and on the North Bank Road and Fences Will Be Built to Pro tect the Tracks. Prominent Hill officials are to visit Portland during the next few weeks to look over the new Spokane, Portland & Seattle Railway. Chief of them is Louig J. Hill, president of the Great Northern Railway. He is expected in Portland during the first week in April and will remain here several days. Mr. Hill Is on his way back to St. Paul with his family after spend ing: some time in California. James J. Hill had intended to visit Portland at the same time, but he was called back to New York. He will come out here and go over the new North Bank line as soon as he can take the time. Chief Engineer W. L. Darling and O C Greene, superintendent of telegraph of the Northern Pacific Railway, will arrive here Monday and will make a tour of inspection over the new rail road. Chief Engineer Darling took considerable professional interest in the line while it was under construc tion and made a number of trips over the route the road follows while the grade was being built. He traveled over the line on horseback and has not seen it since the laying of rails was commenced. General Superintendent Forest has lined up his operating forces and has the following staff at Vancouver for running the road: M. F. Kincaid, train master; H. S. Mclntire, chief dispatcher; C WThitfleld. roadmaster, and W. S. Taylor, assistant engineer. The 98 nd problem, that has proved a never-ending source of trouble to the O. R. & X. ever since the line was first laid yeast, of the Cascade Moun tains, is bothering tne North Bank line, and Superintendent Forest is working out plans to overcome the difficulty. A sard torm swept over the eastern end of the new road this week, the sand almost burying the -frack In places. Crews of workmen have been busy shoveling the sand off the track. Fences will be built, similar to the sand fences on the O. R- & X.. which consist -merely of boards fixed on edge, which are intended to keep the sand from blowing on the track. The sand dunes are constantly shifting so that new fences have to be built every little while. Superintendent Forest is giv ing the matter serious study in hope of discovering an improved method of fighting the ever-shifting sands. FREIGHT TRAFFIC IS GAINING Conditions Improving and Outlook Bright, Reports F. H. Fogarty. That railroad traffic between Portland and the East is improving rather than falling off and that the outlook Is good. Is the statement of F. H. Fogarty, as sistant general frenght agent for the Northern Pacific, wiui offices in the Wor BOND DEPARTMENT OF J. A. BLOCH, Manager cester building. Mr. Fogarty does not find cause for the alarm that prevails among many railroad people over tiie prospects. 'l find that west-bound business is a good barometer of industrial conditions throughout this territory," said he, 'and our reports for this month show a grat ifying Improvement over February. Jan uary and December. Besides, reports from .Minnesota, transfer and Eastern terminals show there are large quantities of freight- awaiting shipment, which means a continuance of the increased ton nage. "East-bound business as well is pick ing up. Lumber is moving in constantly increasing volume from this territory to the Eastern markets. Of course, this constitutes the great bulk of freight" traffic In that direction and the indica tions are that more and more lumber will move throughout the Summer. "Comparison of 'business this month with last March is hardly 'fair for we handled an abnormal March business last year on account of the fact that storms and floods had blocked our lines during January and February and the blockade was not raised until March, when the ac cumulated traffic went forward to its destination. This caused a very high record to be set for last -March." DIES OF UNKNOWN INJURIES James Mcintosh Thought He Had Recovered From Fall. James Mcintosh, an elderly man who was injured a few days ago on the railroad track near La Center, Wash., died early yesterday afternoon at the Good Samaritan Hospital. Mcintosh's death resulted from internal injuries, the seriousness of which he was un aware. He had been at work in a log ging camp near La Center and, decid ing to come to, Portland, had given up his work and started for the railroad station, several miles away. In cross ing a trestle he slipped and fell to the ground, a distance of 0 feet. That Mcintosh escaped with his life seems to be a miracle. Although badly shaken up and in some pain, he arose and finished his walk to the station, where he took the train for this city. He had been in Portland two days and because he was In no great pain did not consult a physician. On Tuesday night he took a car ride and for the first time since his accident was seized with violent pain. He was found by Police man Ed Burke at the end of the line, unable to walk. Mcintosh was examined by the City Physician, but he told that official that he was well able to pay for a private physician, and requested to be sent to a hospital. He was accordingly sent to the Good Samaritan Hospital, where he died after 12 hours. So far as Is known, he has no relatives to claim $2440 which he had on deposit in one of the local banks.

We will make no predictions nor jrreat promises at this time, but all you have to do is to look up the profits paid by telephone companies throughout the country upon bonds and stocks. You will find " that the Bell Telephone Company, who were a few years ago just as strong as the Standard Oil Company, have paid dividends and Interests upon securities sold by them amounting to hundreds of thousands yearly. Today the Home companies all through the East are becoming as strong as the Bell Company was a few years ago. and It Is only a matter of time when the entire fortunes derived from telephone operations will be paid over to the inventors of the different independent tele phone companies and divided amongst investors, which . heretofore was in control of the Bell Telephone Company, who used to be the greatest syndicate known to the. Ameri can people. Any Information that you may desire regarding the independent telephone movement all through the country we shall be pleased to supply.
