" KecorcV as Member of lawmaking Body Vnavorj -Protef t Raised When Coon Appointed Him on Judicial Committee. . . By Staff Correepondent of gpokane Spokesmen-RiTr. SEATTLE, Wuh., Dec i.-p-i Special.) E. B. Palmer, former law partner of Jgdge Milo A. Root, who has become deeply Involved in the Root scandal by testimony (riven in Spokane to the Investigating committee, now faces a prospective investigation by the State Legislature, which may result In his expulsion from that body when It con venes In January. . In the recent election. Palmer was elected to the Legislature from the Forty-seventh District. King County. For a while he figured as a candidate for Speaker, but when the King County delegation Indorsed Meigs, of Yakima, lie was eliminated from the contest. Since then he has been a candidate for t!ie chairmanship of the Judiciary com mittee, but his candidacy is not looked upon as at all formidable. Not Liked In Legislature. Palmer was a member of the Housa tf Representatives In 1901. and of the Senate in 1903 and 1905. He was de feated for re-election to the Senate In 1906 hr R. F. Borah, but this year made a successful race for election to the l'wer house. In the 1905 session of the Senate LieutenHnt-Uovrrnor Coon, at the request of Governor Mead, appoint ed him chairman of the Judiciary com mittee, but the appointment proved so objectionable to many other members that he was compelled to decline it. Palmer was law partner of Root up to rh time of the latier's appointment to the bn?h by Governor Mead in 1906. He was also chairman, at the time, of the Republican state central committee. Stories told the Bar Association commit tee indicate that he has attempted to profit in his law practice rhrouirh his psrsonal and political relations with Hoot, notably in tlie Richardson case in whioh he Is changed with having offered tn exert an influence in Richardson's favor for a consideration of fc!u00. Involved in Many Scandals. In addition to his actions with reference the Supreme Court Palmer practiced before the State Land Office while a State Sr.'.or and chairman of the Republican stfcte committee. He acted as tax agent fnr the Seattle Electric Company and the JFue, Sound Mill Company while enjoy ing '.he same official and political rela tions tc the State Tax Commission, and v.-?.s twice involved In scandals growing cut of oyster land legislation proposed by Mm. as a member of the Legislature, w'.iile at the same time he was financially Interested In a scheme to exploit oyster lands. When the stories Involving the nitrnc of Root and Palmer first became public. Palmer's law partners, Carroll B. Graves an.1 James B. Murphy, practicaly dis missed Palmer from the firm, the formal dissolution occurring November l. PRESIDENT JNAILS LIBEL ('Continued From First Pane. giess and through the dally press and the whole matter has been threshed over in Irs details, again and again. "The News gives currency to the charge that 'The Crlted Ptates bought from American citizens for H0.nno.oon property that cost these citizens only J12,O0O.O0rt The statement is false. The l"nitcd estates did not pay a cent of the t40.000.0n0 to any American citizen. The News says that there is no doubt that the Govern ment paid Mrt.00O.0OO for the property, and xntinues. 'But who got the money? We are not to know. The Administra tion and Mr. Taft do not think It right that the people should knom-.' Really this is so ludicrous an to make one feel a little impatient at having to answer it. The fact has been officially published again and again that the Government paid 4O.0".0OO and it paid this 140.000.000 direct to the French government, getting the receipts of the liquidator appointed by the French government to receive the same. The United States Government has not the slightest knowledge as to ''the particular individuals among the French government to whom was dis tributed the sum. This was the business of tha French government. . Xo Rake-Oft Received. "The mere supposition that any Ameri can received from the French govern ment a 'rake-off' Is too absurd to be dis russed. It is an abominable falsehood, and it is a slander not against the Ameri can Government, but against the French government. "The News continues, saving that the President's brother-in-law Is Involved In the scandal but has nothing to say. The President's brother-in-law was involved In no scandal. Delavan Smith and the other people who repeated this falsehood lied about the President's brother-in-law, but why the fact that Mr. Smith lied should be held to Involve Mr. Robinson In a 'scandal' is difficult to understand. The scandal affects no one but Mr. Smith, and his conduct has been not ' merely scandalous, but Infamous. Mr. Robinron had not the slightest connec tion of any kind. sort, or description at any time or under any circumstances, with the Panama matter. Neither did Ctarles Taft "The News says that Mr. Taft was a member of the "syndicate." So far as I know there was no syndicate, there cer tainly was no syndicate in the United States that, to my knowledge, had any dealings with the Government directly or indirectly and Inasmuch as there was no syndicate, Mr. Taft naturally did not belong to it. Documents May Re Pnbllshed. "The Newa demands that 'Mr. Taft ap peal to evidence,' by which it means what it calla 'the records' that Is. tha mass of papers which are stored In the War Department, save such as. because oT their technical character and their usefulness in the current work of the canal. It has been found advisable to end to the Isthmus. All of these) docu ments that possessed any importance as illustrating any feature of the transac tion have already been made public. Thare remains a great mass of docu ments of little or no importance which tha Administration is entirely willing to have published, but which, because of their mass and pointlessnees nobody has ever cared to publish. "Any reputable ian ran have full access to these documents." If you or Mr. Swift Booth Tarkington or George Ade in "short. If any reputable man will come 1 , I on here he shall have free access to the documents and can look over every thing for himself. Congress can have them all printed if It wishes, but no Congressman has ever so far intimated any desire that this should be done: I suppose because to print such a mass of documents would be R great expense, and moreover an entirely useless expense, unless, which is not the case, there were some object In printing them. Attacks Other Editors. "Now, by dear Mr. Foulke. I liavft answered In detail your questions and the statements of the News. You are quite welcome to print my answer, but I must frankly add that I don't think any good will come from doing so. Delavan Smith is a conspicuous offender against the laws of honesty and truthfulness, but h5 does not stand alone. He occupies. , . - -qmn evil eminence ior instance, uic ------ which such men as Mr. Laffan, of the New York Bun, me eauoriam m . n,hara Have fmm time tO time called to my attention, just as you have called to my surau i..- . t t.A TnHiannnnlta News. I never see an editorial in any one of these or similar papers unless ior somt. . . i . ,,. hr Bnnienne. else. IS sent to nic w. and of the editorials thus sent me there 1s hardlv one which does not contain some willful and deliberate perversion of the truth. For example, i made public the following statement con cerning a tissue of utterly false state menu, which appeared In Mr. Laffan s paper, the Sun. Prairie Oil Story. "Vi the New York Sun story, entitled Roosevelt and Prairie OH' has seemed to deceive a number of people, the fol lowing statement was made public about It: . , "s soon as the story was brought to President Roosevelt's attention he not only called for the reports con cerning the statements from the Do partment of Justice and the Depart ment of the Interior, but also commu nicated with Secretary Hitchcock so as to be sure the President's recollec tion was not at fault. The story is false In every particular from begin ning to end. Not only is there no such report In the Department of Justice and never has been, but no such re port was ever made. In granting the franchise of the Prairie Oil & Gas Company, the President simply ap proved the recommendation of Secre tarv Hitchcock, submitted him pre cisely as all other recommendations were submitted. Moreover, in every case referring to the granting of fran chises, or the adoption of regulations as regards oil and gas franchises In Oklahoma and the Indian Territory, the President approved the recommen dation of Secretary Hitchcock, wtth the exception of one small and unimpor tant grant to a Delaware Indian, to whom the Delaware Indians. In recog nition of eight years of service to the tribe, had voted in council a fee of 50.000 which he had declined to ac cept and who was given twice the usual amount of land. The statement about the alleged promise to a West ern Senator is a ridiculous falsehood, as Is the vtory.' Falsehood as Business. "The fact is that these particular newspapers habitually and continually and as a matter of business practice every form of mendacity known to man. from the suppression of the truth and the suggestion of the false, to the lie direct. Those who write or pro cure others to write the articles arc engaged In the" practice of mendacity for hire, and surely there can be no lower form of gaining a livelihood. Whether they are paid by outsiders to say what is false, or whether their profit comes from the circulation of the falsehoods is a matter of small consequence. "It is utterly impossible to answer all of their falsehoods. When any given falsehood is exposed they simply re peat it and circulate another. If they were mistaken in the facts, if they pos sessed In their makeup any shred of honesty, it would be worth while to set' them right. But there Is no ques tion at all as to any 'mistake' or 'mis understanding' on their part. They tate what they either know to bo untrue or could by the slightest In quiry find out to be the untruth. "I doubt if they themselves remember their own falsehoods for mote than a very brief period and I doubt still more whether anybody else does. Under these circumstances it seems " hardly worth while to single out for special mention one or two glen falsehoods or one par i r i ii ticular paper, the moral standard of which Is as low as. but no lower than that' of certain other papers. Not Worth Denouncing. "Of course, now and then I am willing to denounce a given falsehood, as, for Instance, as regards this case of the In dianapolis News or the case I have quot ed of the New York Sun. simply because it appears that some worthy people are misled or puzzled by these direct shame less falsehoods, But ordinarily I do not and cannot pay heed to these falsehoods. If I did I would not be able to do my work. My plan has been to go ahead to do the work and to let these people and those like them yell and then trust with abiding confidence to the good sense rt the American people In the assured con viction that the yells will die out, the falsehoods be forgotten and the work re main. "Therefore, as far as I am concerned, I would rather make no answer whatever in this case. But I have much con fidence in your judgment and If you fenl that these men ought to be exposed, why you are welcome to publish this letter. Good Newspaper Benefit.. "There Is no higher and more honest calling than that of the men connected with an upright, fearless and truthful newspaper; no calling In which a man can render greater ser"ice to his fellow countrymen. The best and ablest editors and writers In the daily press render a service to the community which can hardly be parulleled by the service ren dered by the best and ablest men in puo l'c life, or the men in business. But the converse of this proposition is also true. Most corrupt financiers, the most corrupt politicians are no greater menace to this country than the newspapermen of the type that I above discussed. Whether they belong to the yellow press or to the purchased press, whatever may be the stimulating cause of their slander ous mendacity and whatever the cloa-t it may wear, matters but little. In any event, they represent one of the potent forces for evil rn the community. Your3 very truly. "THEODORE ROOSEVELT. "William Dudley Foulke, Richmond, lnd." SMITH KXPLAIXS EDITORIAL Says Credit Was Given Source and He Was Absent at Time. CLEVELAND. O.. Dec. 6. Delavan Smith, here today on his way to New York, was shown a copy of President Roosevelt's letter and made the fol lowing Teply: The President's comments cn the Panama editorials are based on statements made -by a prominent New York man to the New York Sun. which the Inuianaiwlis News printed at the same time, with many other papers, (tlving full credit to the source from which it obtained it. In making the editorial comment to which the President takrs exception, the editor of the News credits its Information to the New York paper making the charge and distinctly dlxclalms any responsibility for Its accur acy. This editorial was published In the ordi nary course of the dally rojtlne of the edi torial department at a time when I was absent from Indianapolis and therefore could not have been inspired by any per sonal motive. During the campaign Information reached me tl.at Mr. Foulke had In his possession a letter of the nsture of the one now made public and I was further informed that It was left, by the President to Mr. Foulke's Jtldxment whether the letter should be used in the campaign. When this information reached me I at once telephoned Mr. Foulke. extending to htm the use of the columns of the News for this purpose, but Mr. Foulke did not sec fit to avail himself of the opportunity during the campaign. So much for the personal criticism of me t.v the President, The News will deal edi torially with the President's explanation In due time. GIRL SAVES HER MOTHER Hesrues Parent When Attacked by Ilnsband With Butcher Knife. NEW YORK. Dec. 6.

Prospects for Getting Good Jobs for Eager Aspirants of Empire State Regarded as Lessened by Woodruff's Rashness. BY I.LOTD F. LONERGAN NEW YORK, Dec. 6. (Special.) "And Taft wired to Woodruff to come to Hot Springs, and when Bill saw him he said, 'Here, kid! You give that Senatorship to EHhu,' and Tim did." This Is one explanation of the state chairman'a renunciation of high office, whatever the facts may be. Woodruffs followers are highly indignant, and they are already planning to strip him of hia remaining political raiment. For the various party bossiets had ex pected that through the Senatorship they would be able to wring various conces sions from the President-elect. 3o they declined ta pledge, themselves to Root, and talked gravely of the nwrlts of various candidates, of whom Woodruff was the chief. They Imagined that a period of great activity would result, and finally Taft would be compelled to make terms- which would redound greatly to their advan tage. So Barnes started a Mttle boom of his own, and J. Sloat Fasse.tt was mentioned, while Francis Hendricks, Senator Raines. George W. Aldridge, Benjamin B. Odell, Jr.. Frank Black, and all the other minor leaders announced, in statesmenlixe tones, that the "Legislature would decide." Parsons Slid Down Pole as Usual. The only boaslet who landed on the bandwagon at the mart was Herbert Parsons, of New York. "He always slides down the pole, one second after Roose velt turns in an alarm. n-nAwntr wa tha chitttlAHt HttlA man in New York for several weeks. He rounded up tha Kings County delegation, ana rney unanimously voted to support him to the bitter end. He also picked up pledges In other parts of the state. And then, while the Woodruff army was drawn up In battle array, the Gen eral hastily appeared and announced that he had surrendered everybody, without the honors of war. He advised them to line up for Root, and In ten minutes the Secretary of State was the only candi date in the field. "Betrayed," Cry Bosslels. But the bosslets are angry and declare they have been betrayed. And unless Taft feels inclined to Interfere, or Roose velt postpones his lion hunt, Timothy X Woodruff will lose his political scalp. "Woodruff has made our 'organisation the laughing stock of the Nation." says one man, regarded upstate as large potatoes. "We had an excellent chance lo show Taft that we controlled things, but now he will not bother about con sulting us, and nobody can blame him. "On previous occasions Woodruff has been a quitter, but this time we really believed he would stick. He said bo for one thing, and in addition had every thing to gain and nothing to lose by making a fight. But at the very first harsh word, Tim throws down his arms, and leaves the organization up in the air. "We ned a new state chairman, and the matter Is under discussion now. As yet we have not picked out a candi date, but it wouldn't surprise me a bit if Congressman Herbert Parsons was fhe man. Everytlme we have been forced to do something we do not want to do. Parsons has' landed In the wagon about three jumps ahead of the dognet. The rest of us are roped and thrown In, so Parsons Is justified in claiming that he Is never coerced, and always acts on hia own judgment. "Any man who can read storm signals and act on them as promptly as Par sons can. would make a good director general of our organization. Of course he would take his orders from Washing ton, but that is what all the rest of us would do in the end, so what difference does it make?" This politician, like all his associates, realizes .that Woodruff cannot be ousted, unless Taft and Roosevelt agree to keep their hands off. So they are now strain ing every nerve to convince the Incoming and the outgoing President of the abso lute unfitness of "Little Tim." Where Woodruff Does Xot Shine. One point against the state chairman is that he Is decidedly persona non grata with Governor Hughes. In fact he has never been a welcome guest at the Ex ecutive Mansion, and added to his un popularity last Fall when he led the battle lo prevent the Governor's re- nomination. On the other hand Parsons and Hughes are on fairly friendly terms. They have been lined up on legislative matters a number of tlmee, and the Governor has frequently called the Manhattan Congress man into consultation. In fact Parsons is one of the few men In the state who can be said to have an intimate acquaint ance with Hughes. While plans are under "way to steal Woodruff's state chairmanship coat, certain individuals In Brooklyn are preparing to take 'away his county leadership vest. Of the 23 Assembly district leaders, ten have already formed a combination, and they expect to win over half a dozen more within a month or so. Congressman William M. Calder. who, strangely enough, represents Wood ruff's home district, is the man slated for leader, and seems to be the choice of practically all tne Insurgents. These leaders claim that Woodruff Is neither recognized nor consulted at Washington, and Is snubbed at Albany. He hns no patronage to dispose of and does rot stand, well with the rank and file of voters. Therefore they believe he should step down and make room for a man who can do things, brace up the organization and annex patron age that, by right, should go to Brooklyn. Woodruff Called "Easy." "Woodruff is the only big leader who didn't secure a place on the state ticket which was elected In November." said one disgusted follower. "We had candidates, but Tim refused to allow their names to be presented. The other leaders told him he ought to make way for other counties, because Brooklyn would be represented when he was elected United States Senator. "And Woodruff took it all In, and left us unprovided for, because he be lieved it would help his own fight. Now none of us have got anything, and Woodruff is as badly off as the rest." The report that the state chairman will be consoled with a Ambassador ship has been received with laughter and expressions of disbelief. However, things may shape themselves so that PORTLAND RAILWAY, LIGHT 8 POWER CO. 147 SEVENTH STREET BETWEEN MORRISON AND AIDER STREETS Woodruff will be "rewarded." He de clares himself that he Is not a candi date, which, in some quarters, is taken as an indication that he will be one of the 109 brand of diplomats. It Is pointed out that if Woodruff Is In Bucharest, or Sofia, or Constanti nople, he will naturally resign his political offices, and the way would be cleared without excitement or yells of anguish, for a new state chairman and a new leader of Kings County. Sun Waxes Sarcastic. "Yes, it would be cheap at the price," remarked an up-state Congressman who is a bitter foe of W'oodruff, "and perhaps he would make a good Am bassador." As an illustration of the general feeling toward Woodruff the following editorial from the New York Sun is of interest: "We must protest against tho mali cious attempt or desire to export the Hon. Tim Woodruff. No doubt he would shine as an Ambassador. If he has not the tongues he has gifts more potent. Compact of person, beautiful of habiliment, of long experience In the negotiations and diplomacies and deals of politics, accustomed to yield, yet ris ing from temporary disappointment with unconquerable ambition still seething in his patient bosom, he would surprise foreigners and glorify himself anew in parts of the infidels. But New York, the country cannot spare him. In vain the Patagonians stretch out imploring arms and the rude anthro pophagi of the Solomon Islands await him with ecstasy. The American mar ket for an American statesman." It must be admitted that this notice is hardly as "classy" as Woodruff's famous waistcoats. Slaeterllnck Writing Play. PARIS, Dec. 6. (Special.) M.
