CHANGES ARE VERY GOOD
Dry-Farm Homestead Bill Is Quite
Likely to Pass.
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.

ND0R5ED
BY CLUBS
Republican Candidates Are
Backed for Nomination.
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,

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

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

plaudits and peals of laughter. Would
they all leave the poor boy to die of
starvation on the road?
From out alt the throng" only three
young: girls stopped and gazed upon him.
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.
