OREGOX1AX NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington. April . Friends of the 320 acre dry-farm homestead bill are quite hopeful of having: their pet measure enacted Into law before the adjourn ment of the present session of Con gress. For a time the bill was In a rather precarious position, but recent events have altered the situation, and the present outlook is quite iavorable. The chief danger which confronted tills bill was the possible failure of Western men to agree upon Its terms. It is a measure in which the East has no direct concern, and naturally East ern Senators and Representatives defer to the judgment of the colleagues from the arid land states on a question of this kind. Now that the Western men are pretty generally agreed as to what they want, they are apt to get it, un less there shall be later difference of opinion, and of that there Is no indica tion just now. The attitude of Senator Heyburn, of the 'advocates of the dry-farm bill, and no one was able to make out the real reasons why the senior Idaho Senator should enter oblection to the Pmoot bill. It Is true, there 'was some ground for misunderstanding, but the Senator is a member of the committee tiiat considered and reported the dry-farm bill, and was In a position to know ex actly what was done and why. A month or so ago the Senate passed a dry-farm bill prepared by Senator Smoot. Immediately after the pas sage of this bill a general conference of AVestern Senators and Representa tives was held, and the Smoot bill was amended in several particulars, so as to meet with the approval of the en tire Western contingent in Congress. Senator Heyburn was one of a very few Western men who did not attend this conference, though he was invited to be present. Following that conference, the bill agreed upon was introduced in the House by Representatlev Mondell, chairman of the public lands commit tee, and in the Senate by Senator Smoot, deference being paid him as he was the author of the first dry-farm bill which had already received the approval of the Senate. In introducing the bill as shaped up by the conference, Senator Smoot explained his intention of abandoning- his first bill, for he had no desire to insist upon his personal views, as against the judgment of other men from the West. When the second Smoot bill was called up in the public lands committee. Senator Heyburn. who had voted for the first one, voted against the second, and had it amended so as to eliminate Idaho from its provisions. He said, in spite of Smoot's declaration, that the second bill was not a dry-farm bill, but merelv an enlarged homestead bill, and that the first Smoot bill was not an enlarged homestead, but a dry-farm bill. Whether he purposely misun derstood, or whether he had some ul terior motive in setting; up his Judg ment against the rest of the commit tee, no man can say. Rut that Vas his position, and he further declared that the second bill, notwithstanding it specifically applied to "non-irrigable, non-timbered lands." would enable settlers to take up 320 acres of any kind of vacant public land. His colleagues labored with him for weeks before he would confess his error, but then he raised the further objection that the bill would interfere with and retard the development of Ir rigation enterprises under the Carey act and National reclamation law. He went to the extent of Inducing a rrominent Eastern Senator to oppose the hill on this same ground. But he was finally convinced that his objection was not well taken, end agreed not only to support the second bill, but to consent to the restoration of Idaho, which had been stricken out in committee. When Mr. Heyburn surrendered, there was little opposition left in the Senate. He was the only Western man who spoke against the bill, and he was llkew-lse responsible for the objection raised by an Eastern Sen ator. Therefore, the surrender of Mr. Heyburn removed the only serious ob stacle in the path of the bill, so far as the Senate was concerned. The Mondell bill has been on the House calendar for more than two weeks, hut no time has yet been af forded for its consideration because the House has been engrossed with appropriation bills, which are privi leged measures. In a few weeks the House will have passed the remain ing appropriation bills, and when they are out of the way and the House is waiting on the Senate, there will be opportunity for the consideration of important measures which have re ceived the approval of the Senate. Mr. Mondell fully believes that the House will agree to the 320-acre dry farm bill, in view of the unanimous report of his committee, and the rec ommendations made by the President in favor of such legislation. - As heretofore stated, there la no known obstacle of consequence in the path of this bill, and unless unex pected opposition should develop, the Smoot-Mondcll bill, with perhaps slisht amendments, will become a law before adjournment.

IN THE LEGISLATIVE RACE I'nlon. Soil-wood and Forty-fifth Precinct Organizations Go on Record for Tickets That Are Practically Identical. Three Republican clubs yesterday in dorsed legislative tickets for the nomi nating primaries the Union Republican Oub the Sellwood Republican Club and the Forty-fifth Precinct Republican Club. The Portland Republican Club will do the same this afternoon. The candidates favored for nomination are all opposed to Statement Xo. 1, and are pledged to the Republican party's choice for United States Senator. The tickets supported by the three clubs are identical except that the Sellwood and the Forty-fifth Precinct clubs made several additions. The candidates approved by the three organizations are as follows: For State Senate Elmer B. Colwell. Dr. Emmet Dr-ke. For House of Representatives John Brown. J. w. Campbell. W. H. Chapin, D. F. Hardman and L. J. Hicks. This ticket was announced by the Union Club and the Forty-fifth Precinct Club in the afternoon and was adopted by the Sellwood Club last night in Strahlman's hall, at a well-attended meeting. The Sellwood Club resolved to support also for the Legislature. J. B. Kelly for State Senator and Harry Xorthup and Dr. J. H. Hickman for Representatives. These men were chosen by the Precinct Club in the afternoon. The Union Club declared for Gus C. Moser for District Attorney. The officers of the club say that their organization will . make no more indorsements. The selections were made by a special com mittee of the executive board of the club, appointed last Wednesday night by the board. The committee was composed of John Gill, president of the club; R. W. Hoyt. James Kertchcm,. Max G. Cohen and W. M. Davis. The executive board is composed of: President. Mr. Gill; first vice-president, C. M. Idleman; second vice-president, F. E. Beach; treasurer, Ralph W. Hoyt; secretary. Max G. Cohen; First Ward. Louis Kuehn; Second Ward. W. M. Davis; Third Ward, W. W. Banks: Fourth Ward, W. H. Galvani; Fifth Ward. Charles C. Wood worth; Sixth Ward, William Brown: Seventh Ward. James Kertchem: p:ighth Ward. R. W, Parker: Ninth Ward. T. B. McDevitt; Tenth Ward. W. C. North, and the fol lowing members-at-large: Charles Cleve land. Gresham: T. J. Monahan, of St. John; W. J Miller, of Linnton; R. C. Smith, of Woodstock. The selecting committee met yesterday with the several candidates whom the club will support. At last night's meetini of the Sell wood Club. D. F. Hardman. candidate for Representative on the Republican voters choice ticket, spoke against Statement No. 1. H. M. Cake, candidate for Unit ed States Senator, spoke in favor of the statement. Other candidates who ad dressed the meeting were: George J. Cameron. Gus C. Moser and R. B. Sin nott , candidates for District Attorney; W. L. Lightner. for County Commissioner; William Reid, for Justice of the Peace, and Dr. Emmet Drake, for State Senator. At a session of the executive com mute of the Forty-fifth Precinct Repub lican Club, in the office of the president. Ben Riesland. it was decided that the favored candidates should be known as "The Republican Business Men's Candi dates." All these candidates were present at the meeting, which lasted three hours. The candidates decided to make the cam paign together before the primaries, en tirely independent of any other combina tion. After the names of each of these candidates on the official ballot are the words: "I will vote for the Republican voters choice for United States Senator." Mr. Riesland said that these candidates had been selected for support because they were, first, straightont Republicans and not tied up with any clique or under obligations to any corporation, and that if nominated and elected, they will make clean, fearless and aggressive Legisla tors. A vigorous campaign will be made for their nomination during the remaining week before the primaries. CENTRAL COMMITTKE TO MEET Republicans This Afternoon AViil .Call State Convention. To call a Republican state convention and apportion the delegates, the State Central Committee will meet this after noon in the Hamilton building. In the of fice of the chairman, G. A. Westgate. The convention mu?t meet before May 17, according to the instructions of the Na tional committee, requiring selection of delegates to the National convention at least 30 days prior to the National con vention in'Chicago June 16. Chairman Westgate says that the com mittee will do nothing to sway nomina tions in the primaries next week. It was reported yesterday that an effort will be made to indorse Taft for President. Should this matter be brought up, there wiU be a fight in the committee. Several of the members will contend that such an indorsement should be made by the state convention. The convention, besides choosing Na tional delegates, will nominate four candi dates for Presidential Electors and Is ex pected to adopt a plaftorm. ULTIMATE J)F SOCIALISM None btit Wage-Workers to Share In the Government. PORTLAND. April 9. Tt the Editor.) I would ask space in The Oregonian to correct several errors as regards the Socialists supporting the new legislation. The Socialists of Oregon are not support ing the new legislation and do not care a continental about it. At the state con vention of the Socialist party a resolution was sent in indorsing Statement No. 1 and it was rejected without a dissenting vote. A member of the Socialist party elected to office and voting for anyone ex cept a Socialist would be violating the constitution of the party and would be branded as a traitor to the movement. What 'we seek is to obtain that power which lies "behind all kings and parlia ments, all governments and raws." Our present state platform declares that all "present laws are rules of order for the regulation of capitalist private property. Does Chat look like any "recent legisla tion?" You would leave at least to be Inferred that the Socialists do not un derstand what is behind the "new legis lation." It is a squabble in the ranks of the capitalists over a division of the loot and honors (?. A Socialist who knows what he is talk ing about will tell you point blank that he does not care a rap for your State ment No. 1 or your initiative and refer endum, your single tax or your double tax or any of your thousand and one Hearst reforms or Populist hoxw ashes. He stands on the same principle as The OreaToniaxi, only on the other side of iL f ? ! l 0 The Answer I M Is plain. ASK YOUR V I ill DEALER for the hat V II which Is I ! ?Jv "ALWAYS KIGWT" . The Lanpher Hat He stands flat-footed on a class struggle. He is a rank partisan. He seeks to gain control by his class wasje workers of all branches of government, legislative. Ju dicial and executive and to make, in terpret and execute ftis own laws In his own interests and to make you swallow them, like we have to, whether you like them or not. Do you suppose we are crazy enough not to know that we could not initiate, any laws that were against the In terests of that mob, who today are wallowing1 in their own filth In New York, so long as a Supreme Court com posed of ex-corporation lawyers," one of whom the President recntly said had sweetbreads in place of brains, could set aside by a decision of 5 to 4 that law? Do you suppose that a So cialist would take an oath or pledge before his union "to support his class with all his power and ability" and would then ?o to a Legislatire and vote to send a member of the Citizens Alliance to the Vnited States Senate? No: A Socialist will not take one oatli or pledg-c to violate another oath or pledge. The Socialist movement is not that bunch of Hearst reformers, bug-house faddists and unfrocked ecclesiastics who would palm themselves off on an unsuspecting public as representative Socialists, but is the crystallization of working--cIass Interests being brought about by present needs. And in the near future when the -working- class line up, as they must against a com mon enemy, as Mark Hanna predicted, they will have about as much use for initiatives and referendums and state ments No. 1 or 2 or 6 as the devil has for holy water. The present-day statesmen, with their "recent legisla tion" will look like a basket of oysters holding a council of war on a moonlit beach. Whether we have direct legislation, as in Switzerland, or a representative form, as in the United States, i. of no moment. If we, as a wage-working claas, have not got brains enough to gain control of this Government by putting our own representatives in of fice, we have not got brains enough to get control any other way and do not deserve control. The whole Socialist position can be set down in a very few words. It is for the wage-working class to gain posses sion, through the ballot which they pos sess, with a solid political and trades union movement -behind them, of the Government, and to make, interpret and execute the laws in their own interests. Whether beefsteaks will be broiled on a hot brick cr on a charcoal Are. whether loan people will be fed as much aa fat ones, whether a dog-catcher will be paid more than a President, whether the law yers, editors or preachers will do the dirty work under Socialism, and the many other great questions which agitate the minds of present day statesmen, orators and oracles, can well be left to be de cided by the good sense and judgment of those on whom in future days will have been placed the duty to decide. Whether The Oregonian will be "benevolently as similated" in the near future or not. I do not care to predict', but the working class has less to fear from an open enemy than from one who would "bring them into the city under promiscF 'of freedom and turn them over as spoils of war." Every Sociali knows, or should know, that of all the rabble whose ill-visaged mugs adorn nearly every telegraph post, barn and newspaper page in the coun try, not one would vote for the people's choice for United States Senator if that choice was -a Socialist, except it were from pure cowardice or a personal desire to retain his position in that gallery of rogues which will assemble at Salem in the near future. When the Socialists are strong enough to send their representatives in Oregon to the "Executive Committee-room of the Consolidated Trusts. Ltd.," they will be strong enough to have representa tives in the Legislature of Oregon to send them there. And when they do go there it will be house-cleaning time in Washington, and about the best thing they could do would be to close that in tellectual house of assignation for all time. THOMAS SLADDEN. HER KISS FOR ALMS Parable of a Flower Vendor and a Pretty Girl. Translated From the French. Upon a Spanish highway, where all the pretty girls and handsome youths were returning arm in arm from the bull fight, a youthful mendicant with a ragged cloak thrown round him, was praying for alms, vowing that no food had passed his lips for two whole days. Notwithstanding the firmness of his tanned skin, which could be seen peeping out through the rents and tears of his ragged clothes, one felt at a glance that he was no imposter. The half-starved look in his eyes and his sunken cheeks betokened the want of nourishment. The crowd, however, paid but little at tention to him and passed him by, sing ing Spanish love songs amidst harty FINE RECITAL TONIGHT Weil-Known Soloist Will Appear at Eilers Concert This Evening.

They were fresh to look upon, plump, rosy-cheeked and not more than 50 yeara of age. They paused, and gradually their laughter gave place to looks of pity. The eldest girl gave him one real. "Thank you," he said. The next girl gave him a plecette; "God wilt reward you," said he. The third, the youngest, who was also the prettiest of the three, had neither real nor piecette. For a moment she stood undecided, then, standing on tiptoe, she gave him a soft little kiss on his lips. The poor famished lad said nothing, but, seeing a flower-vendor passing, he gave to him all the money he had just begged for a large bunch of tearoses, and. with tears In his eyes, silently handed them to the youngest girl.
