APPROVED Bf TUFT
Ellis Tells History of Republi
can Platform.
INJUNCTION PLANK IS HIS
Builder, of Declaration Makes Fur
ther Answer to Charge of Retreat.
Roosevelt Approved All but
Eulogy of Himself.
COLUMBUS, Ohio. June 23. The reply
of Attorney-General Ellis to the criticism
of Mr. Bryan on the Republican National
rlatform has suggested a further ques
tion as to how the anti-injunction plank
hs finally adopted came to be written.
Upon this point Mr. Kills made this state
ment tonight:
"The anti-injunction plank as finally
adopted was written by the frionds of
Secretary Taft on the sub-committee on
resolutions and was approved by the Sec
retary and President before it was pro
posed as a substitute for the' original
plank on this subject. In fact every
plank and practically every sentence in
the Republican platform as finally adopt
ed was approved by the Secretary, al
though those portions referring particu
larly to the work of the administration,
were not submitted to the President.
Even the unimportant verbal changes
between the draft as published before
the convention and as finally adopted by
the convention were made with the Sec
retary's knowledge before the tentative
draft was submitted to the committee.
"This statement is made in order to
make clear the fact that the Republican
platform contains no sugsasUoa. r- v re
treat from the Roosevelt policies, stands
squarely by the progressive principles of
the party and was adopted because It
had the emphatic approval of the party's
candidate."
FIGHT IS OVER PLATFORM
lows Republicans Will Hold State
Convention Today.
"WATERLOO, la., June 23. Chief In
terest in the Republican State Convention
here tomorrow does not lie in the nomi
nation of a state ticket but in the adop
tion of a state platform. The nominations
were all determined by the primaries,
save in the case of the Supreme Judges,
and for these nominations there is no
contests. The fight is between the pro
gressives and the "stand-patters" upon the
issue of the indorsement of the adminis
tration of Governor Cummins and the
anti-pass, direct-primaries and other laws
adopted by the last Legislature, also the
incorporation of the radical planks that
were not included in the National plat
form. The "standr-patters" seem willing; to
permit a very mild indorsement of the,
Cummins administration, but say they
will fight anything that reads as if it
were enthusiastic. Many of them also op
pose specific approval of progressive
legislation.
GEORGIA IS AGAINST BRYAN
Democratic Delegation Almost Unit
and Will Oppose Him.
ATLANTA, Ga., June 23. At a meeting
of the Georgia delegates to the Demo
cratic National Convention at Denver, it
was decided to apply the unit rule to
the delegation. Jt became apparent at
the meeting theft practically the entire
delegation was ojposed to the candidacy
of William J. Bryan and that Georgia's
vote would be cfcst for some other candidate.
Man of Long Sleep Dies.
SPOKANE, Wash.. June 23. (Special.)
Dr. W. A. Egbert, who three months ago

cal profession because he slept 13 days

He was aged 65. He came to Spokane

SEND JAPANESE EASTWARD
Colonies in Coast Cities Are Not De
sirable. ST. PAUL, Minn., June 23. The Pioneer
Press tomorrow morning will print an
interview with Baron Kaguj-a Takahashi,
who has been investigating the Japanese
situation in the United States and Can
ada for the Mikado's government. The
interview was obtained last night at
Crookston. Minn.. In the interview the
Baron says:
"It is the desire of the Japanese gov
ernment thoroughly to understand the
position of Americans on the Japanese
question. The government well realizes
that certain of its citizens have been the
causes of disturbances on this side of
the Pacific which at once have shaken
the evenness of localities and disturbed
our government, too.
"It is not my intention to reveal the
Information I have received or the con
clusions I have drawn, but my report
will state to the Japanese government
that the collection of Japanese immi
grants In the cities of the Pacific Coast
is detrimental to friendly relations be
tween these two countries and la actual
ly, in some cases, an intrusion as far as
concerns the Americans who labor on
the liberties and rights of the people who
already Inhabit this country.
"Therefore, my report will advise that
Immigrants reaching the coasts of Amer
ica be compelled to have in reserve suf
ficient money to take them across the
Rocky Mountains and Into the agricul
tural regions of the Middle West."

WILL RECOVER MUCH LAND
GOVERNMENT HOPES TO MAKE
HYDE-BENSON TRIAIi PAY.
While Trial of Cases Has Cost $48f
360, the Nation Will Get Back
Land Worth $1,000,000.
WASHINGTON, Juno 23. In a state
ment Issued today in regard to the land
conspiracy cases which resulted yesterday
in the conviction of Frederick A. Hyde
and Joost H. Schneider, and the acquittal
of John A. Benson and Henry P. Dimond,
Assistant Attorney-General A. B. Pugh,
declares that while the trial of these four
men has cost the Government $48,360, the
beneficial results to the Land Department
in the future ' administration of public
land laws are beyond calculation. The
net results, he says, will be the restora
tion to the Government of more than 100,
000 acres of public lands, valued at $1,000,
000. Mr. Pugh says:
The verdict In the c&ae la not at all (rtranpe.
under all the circumstances, to one who fully
understands the situation, and so far as prac
tical results to the land Department are
concerned, all has been accomplished that
would have been accomplished by a verdict
against all four defendants.
While the investigation leading up to the
Indictment and trial and the trial Itself
have cost the Government a great deal of
money, the benefit resulting1 to the Ld.nd De
partment In the future administration of the
land laws Is simply incalculable. The last
vestlg'e of the conolpracy which originated
on the Pacific Coast about ten years ago now
has been utterly destroyed and It is not
likely that other similar schemes will again
be attempted.
As a net result there will be restored to
the Government something over 100,000 acres
of public land- which were selected under the
fraudulent practice charged in tne Indict
ment In this case. The selections have been
under suspension since November, 1002, await
ing the trial of the case. The selection will
now be taken up . and adjudicated by the
Land Department.
The value of the J and has very greatly In
creased since Its selection eight, nine and
ten years ago, so that the 100,000 acres or
more immediately involved In the trial are
probably now worth from $8 to $10 art acre.
Patents were secured for something like
40,000 acres of public land before the fraud
was discovered, which was in November,
1902. Suits have been instituted by the De
partment of Justice for the recovery of this
land and will now be prosecuted to final
conclusion. Insofar as the land has not
passed into the hands of Innocent purchasers
n win De recovered, it is not likely, how
ever, that as to a great many of the pat
ented lands the titles may now be In the
hands of Innocent holders and therefore be
yond recovery.
Altogether there were 108 witnesses in
the case. Mr. Pugh today received con
gratulatory telegrams on the successful
outcome of the trial from Francis J.
Heney, former Interior Department offi
cials and others prominently identified
with the case. The prosecution was con
ducted by District Attorney Baker and
Mr. Pugh.
HELIE AND ANNA MUST WAII
Can't Be Married In England I'ntil
. Two AVeeks Pass.
LONDON, June 23. Prince Holla de Sa
gan spent this morning In making a tour
of the regtetery offices In an endeavor to
discover means by which his marriage
with Mme. Anna Gould could be carried
out without the delay, which, under the
law of England, usually' accompanies such
ceremonies. At all the registry offices, he
got the same response, namely, that the
only means recognized by the law to
avoid a fortnight's residence here before
marriage, is the special license that can
be issued only by the Archbishop of Can
terbury. As Mme. Gould is divorced, it is
not believed that this license can be ob
tained. The couple were hopeful that the wed
ding could take place at the end of thi3
week, but the authorities declare that
this la Impossible without a special li
cence. Prince Helle is reported to have
renounced Catholicism in order to marry
Mme. Gould. It is declared that after the
wedding the couple will retire to the Ger
man estate of the prince.

EXPLOIT FHflG LANDS
ItEAIiTY BOARD CONSIDERS
FORMING STOCK COMPANY.
Plan Outlined by Whitney L. Boise
and Meets With General Ap
proval of Members.
"What the meeting of the Realty Board
last night lacked in point of attendance
was made up in interest, for several im
portant subjects were presented at the
session. Whitney L. Boise told the board
what he had evolved In the way of a
scheme to have the members of the or
ganization form a company with the ob
ject in view of placing tracts of land on
the market. He advised the formation ot
a stock company which would assume
ownership in tracts of land In Oregon
suitable for all sorts of market-gardening,
fruit-raising, small farming, dairy
ing and various other uses to which fer
tile lands may be put, and that efforts be
made In conjunction with promotion or
ganizations to Induce Immigration and
settlement of these lands.
In the plan outlined he suggested
that the company have an agent whose
duties should embrace showing intend
ing buyers over the lands controlled
by the company, and that every In
ducement in reason be offered the new
comer to locate. The tracts selected
would be cut up Into lots of five, ten
and twenty acres and terms of payment
made as reasonable as good business
judgment could dictate, and as mem
bers of the Realty Board would be the
stockholders in the enterprise, all the
leading realty men of the city would
be Interested in disposing of the lots.
The board was so well pleased with
the scheme outlined that it appointed
a committee of five to confer with Mr.
Boise and formulate a plan of organization.
E. L. Thompson reported from the clvio
improvement committee that several con
ferences had been held with the Mayor
and members of the Council regarding the
employment of R. H. Thomson, of Seattle,
and also on the construction of Vista ave
nue, on Portland Heights. Several obsta
cles had been encountered, but the com- ;
mittee was hopeful of accomplishing tho
work which they had set out to do.
The board voted to take up again the
holding of excursions to near-by places,
the next one to be selected during the
week, members to bo notified In due sea-'
son. f
Progress wa3 reported by the committee
on the proposed realty exchange, and W. ;
A. Spanton was appointed on the com-1
mittee to fill a vacancy.
Ralph Ackley was elected a member of
the board.
