FIGHT CENTERS-OK
SMOOT POWER BILL
State Control Advocates Win
Ballinger's Support; Ex
pect That of Taft.
MEASURE IS COMPROMISE
"Klffht of Eminent Domain Author
ised When Xecessary to Acquire
Kfght of Private Owner.
Interests Safeguarded.
KEWB BLRB L Wash
lnftoo, April & Advocates of state regu
lation and control of water power de
velopment have decided to concentrate
their efforts to paas what. Is known as the
Smoot bill, the measure agreed upon by
the subcommittee of the Senate public
lands committee, appointed to frame the
conservation legislative programme. It
la reallaed that Uxe bill mar require some
amendment, for dlaouKslon la aure to
brini out ita defects and short cominga.
.Nevertheless, the underlying principle is
approved by those who believe in ?tate,
rather than National control of water
powers, and the fundamental ideas will
be preserved if the great majority of
"Western Senators are able to dominate
the situation and bring to their support
enough la&atern and Southern voted to
route the advocates of "Pinchotism."
BaUlnger Won Over.
Secretary" Ballinger, who heretofore
drafted a bill Intended to recognize the
right of the Federal Government to regu
late the use and development of water
power on the pub Ho domain, has been
won over to the idea, of state control,
and aSRlifted In the drafting of the Smoot
bill, which is now before the Senate.
He will Indorse the blu formally If it 13
submitted to him tor hla opinion, and the
presumption is that President Taft will
do likewise, if Congress sees fH to sub
stitute such a measare for the National
bill drawn by Plnchot. But the fight is
not yet won. It Is not fully determined
that 'any. bill will be passed this session.
It is one thing to report a bill and quite
another thing to pass it. And the friends
of the Smoot bill are aware that some of
4b long-winded artists of the Senate
prefer the Plnchot bill to the Smoot bill,
and may enter upon a protracted tight in
the hope of defeating the proposition to
give oontrol of water powers to the re
bpectiTo states.
Content May Be Averted.
If such a fight s started, advocates of
state control will be just as Insistent on,
their side and the result may be a futile
filibuster. However, there is strong hope
that such a contest may be avoided, and
that. the Senate, after reasonable discus
sion, may be permitted to , record the
will of its majority, whatever that may
be.
The Smoot bill. In Its prese nt f orm ,
embodies some of the features of the
bill Introduced by Senator Jones, of Wash
ington, and other features taken from
the bill of Senator Carter, of M on ton a.
it is a compromise measure, which will
e subject to amendment In the open
Senate,
Primarily, it provides that the Presi
dent may withdraw from entry such pub
lic lands as may be found to contain
commercially valuable water powrr sites.
The National Government, in turn, is
authorised, upon application, to transfer
title to eruch lands to the state or terri
tory in whlrn the site is located, the
title thereafter to vest permanently in
the state or territory.
Private Sites to Be Acquired.
In order that the control of the state
over power piles may be as broad as pos
sible, the MU provides that when lands in
private ownership may be included with
in any area withdrawn under its pro
islons, and the use of such lands Is
deemed necessary for the full utilization
of the lands withdrawn for power de
velopment, the Secretary of the Interior
may purchase the rights of the private
owner, together with any improvements
he may have made, the state In turn to
reimburse the Federal Government for
ny expense it may incur.
If necessary, the Secretary is author
ized to exercise the right of eminent do
main In extinguishing the title of the
private owner, but if the owner voluntar
ily sells out to the Government he may.
In lieu of cash payment, select some other
equal area of publlo land of like charac
ter, and be credited for all thiners law
fully done by him in acquiring his origi
nal holding. If the private owner chooses
to make such Indemnity selection, he
must make it for his own use and benefit,
and moreover, must make his selection
within two years from the date of re
linquishment. Patent Subject to Conditions.
To the Secretary of the Interior is
given power to make regulations govern
ing the transfer of power sites to the
states. The state in turn, through ita
proper officers, must file with the Secre
tary formal application for power sites
which it desires to acquire, accompanied
by proof that the lands are chiefly valu
able for the development of water power,
and must show that all land applied for
is necessary to accomplish the develop
ment of the largest available power at
he place designated.
If the Secretary of the Interior is satis-
ed that the lands are as represented
by the state and are sought solely for
power purposes, he is directed to issue
patent to the state or territory making
the application. This patent, however.
Is subject to four conditions enumerated
in the Mil.
First, the state shall not alienate the
fee-simple title to the lands, hut may
grant the use of the lands for power de
velopment for specific periods of time
and upon such term as it may by law or
contract establish.
Second. Keen tract held by the state
shall be devoted primarily to the develop
ment of water power, either by the state
Itself or by . municipal corporation, or
by some person, association or private
corporation.
Leases to Be Reappraised.
Third. No lease or permit to the use of
such land shall be conveyed to any of
the parties aforesaid without reserving
to the state or to some governmental
subdivision thereof, or to some authorised
board or commission, the right at stated
intervals of 10 years, to fix reasonable
rates to be charged by the lessee for the
supply and distribution of the power de
veloped on said lands.
Ftaurth. The state shall forbid any
party with whom It contracts to enter
into any combination or consolidation in
restraint of full and unrestricted compe
tition in the business of developing, dis
tributing or selling power, and which
may have for its purpose the monopoli
sation of such business, and shall pro
vide for the cancellation of any con
tract upon violation of any of its pro
visions. If any state shall fall to utilise lands
quired under tills oill in the manner
above &0t forth, the lands shall be for
feited to the General Government.
MISSOURI RATE CASES ON
Courts Cannot Set Aside Commis
sion's Decisions When Just.
WASHINGTON, April 5. Arguments
began before the Supreme Court of the
United States today In the famous Mis
souri River rate cases, which involve
the rate-making power of the Inter
state Commerce Commission.
On behalf of the Commission, Wade
H. Kills, special assistant to the Attorney-General,
defended the order of the
Commission, reducing the rate between
the Mississippi River and the Missouri
River as applied to shipment from
seaboard points to Missouri River
cities. Mr. Bills contended the courts
could not set aside rates made by the
Commission when just and reasonable
in themselves.
In this case, he claimed, the railroads
were not complaining about a rate be
ing unjust, but were merely concerned
beoause the rate was alleged to dis
criminate against shippers in Central

Freight Association territory. He urged
those shippers should have taken their
complaint to the Commission.-
John H. A twood, of Kansas City,- in
behalf of the Missouri River merchants,
argued the railroads could remedy any
discrimination , against central terri
tory shippers by reducing the inter
river rate for all shippers, regardless of
the point of origin.
PINCHOT ANDJHILL TO TALK
Conference on Charities Broadens
Scope of Programme.

conservation seems likely to occupy a
very prominent place in the discussions

Announcement was made today by
Paul U. Kellogg, of New York, editor

the promise from J. J. Hill, of St. Paul,
to open the discussion on "Conserva
tion." he had received a tentative
promise from Gifford Plnchot, late
Chief Forester of the United States,
that If the latter returns from his con
ference with Colonel Roosevelt in Eu
rope before the conference meets he
will probably appear here.

afternoon before the County Commis
sioners and asking that their action in
regard to the proposed electric interurban
railway from Grays Harbor to Puget

sum ever paid by a railroad to one
man for a right of way across a Uma
tilla couny farm has been paid by the
O. R. & N. to J. E. Smith, one of the
leading wool growers of the state.
Smith got $25,000 for a right-of-way
across his farm desired to straighten
curves between this city and Yoakum.
The new route traverses the Smith
farm for a distance of nearly four
miles and consumes nearly 40 acres.
Twenty acres of this Is In alfalfa. The
proposed change also takes the road
directly through his orchard.
The improvements in the 17 miles of
road between Pendleton and Yoakum
Is to be one of the most expensive
pieces of railroad, building in the
Northwest. Several steel bridges are
to be constructed, tunnels are to be
dug and the course of the river is to
be changed In some places. In other
others the road is to be blasted out of
the solid rock.

High Record Snle.
HOOD RIVER. Or., April 5. (Special.)
The prediction that Oregon orchard
land would sell for better than $2000
an acre this year came sooner than
was expected here, when Rede S. De
lano, an Eastern man. today paid $14.
400 for six and one-half acres of 8-year-old
trees.
The price per acre Is a little better
than $2200 an acre and reaches a mark
$300 higher than the best previous price
which was obtained a week or two
ago, when ten acres here were sold
for $19,000. The orchard was purchased
through B. E. Duncan & Co. from Dr.
Stanton Allen, a retired physician, who
came here several years ago and went
into apple growing. The land is sit
uated on the east side of the valley.
In addition to buying the acreage
of bearing orchard, Mr. Delano bought
seven acres of brush land adjoining,
for which he paid $528 an acre. This

land at Hood River. His total invest
ment for the 13 acres is $18,000. Dr.
Allen still has 15 acres of bearing or
chard which he will retain.
MARCH IS WARM AND DRY
Rainfall In Vanootrver Least, With

EUGENE-TO-COAST ROAD ON
Mysterious Movements Made by
Corps of Surveyors- Now.
tL'GEXE, Or., April 5. (Special.)
Talk of railroad building, paper and
otherwise, in this vicinity has been fur
ther augmented by the discovery today
of a corps of engineers in the field, a
couple of miles west of town, followed
by an agent securing right of way.
What company they represent is a
mystery. However, they seem to be
under the direction of J. K. Mounce,
who was for a short time last Summer
Identified with the Lane County Asset
Company, now engaged in a prelimi
nary survey of a railroad from Eugene
to Florence. Mounce is known to have
done construction for various railroads,
but has never t figured in the role of
a promoter.
Mounce's maneuvers in this vicinity,
since leaving the Lane County Asset
Company, have been mysterious, but
not seriously regarded by people here.
Developments of the past day or two
by Mounce have given rise to the sus
picion that he is in the employ of the
Southern Pacific. He refuses to affirm
or deny this rumor, but asserts he is
going to build a road from Eugene to
the coast.
POSTMASTER IS DUBIOUS
Salem Wonders AVliom Representa
tive Hawlcy Will Name.
SALEM, Or., April 5. (Special.) The
question of Postmaster Squire Farrar'g
successor Is a live topic of discussion
wherever men gather in this city. The
term of the present incumbent expires
April 12 and no intimation has been
received from Representative Hawley
as to his probable action in recom
mending an appointee.
In fact, it is said that In a letter re
ceived by a friend in this city less
than a week ago, Mr. Hawley said that
he had not yet been able to decide
among the rival candidates for the
place. This protracted delay has given
all the aspirants cause to hope and has
resulted in great number of letters,
telegrams and petitions in favor of
this candidate or that. A similar con
dition prevails at Silverton. Woodburn
and Forest Grove, in each of which
towns a hot'eontest has developed.
ILLINOIS CITIES ARE WET
(Continued from Paje 1.)
Democrats elected 21 candidates, Re
publicans 12 and Independents 2.
The new Council will stand: Demo
crats, 39; Republicans. 31; Indepen
dents, 2. The latter will vote with the
Republicans, but the Democrats have
a compact machine with enough mar
gin to put through any legislation.
Previously they had only 17 wards In
the Democratic column.
The election was characterised by a
crusade . by the Municipal Voters
League, a non-partisan organization,
against the selection of alleged "gray
wolves' for the new City Council. Al
derman John C. Coughlln (Bath-House
John), of the First Ward, was re
elected by a large majority.
It is probable the new Council will have
to deal with the problem of constructing
a passenger subway and with gas and
telephone rate.
The suffragettes attempted to wedge In
a vote when Dr. Sara Janson appeared
at the polls and demanded a ballot. Her'
name appeared on the list of registered
voters but she was not allowed to vote.
The close of the voting was marked by
much Incipient rioting, one death, many
fights and a multitude of complaints to
the election board of fraudulent voting.
About 40- saloonkeepers were arrested for
keeping open during voting time.

MrXfEAPOLIS, April 6- '"The rail
roads must and will increase their
freight rates. On one side the states

wages. The only recourse the railroads
have is an increase in rates. The more

TALKS ON TEETH
BY THE REX DENTAL CO DENTISTS
Everyday Magic
Aladdin's lamp transported Its owner
rrom Place to place in the twinkling of
an eye. That was thousands of years
ago, and the lamp was only a myth.
But so wonderful that the story has
endured to this day.
The Alveolar dental method of re
storing missing teeth is far more won
derful and it is a realifv. It is the
dream of the ages in dentistry come
true. It has done more than work magic
in the mouth, it has shown what good
classy dentistry reallv is. It has taught
those who came to see what this won
drous method is that the dental work
they had been getting all their lives
from supposedly high-class dentists was
ordinary work that could be done bv
any average dentist and in many cases
It was mere .1unk. If an operator in any
of our offices turned out work no bet
ter than most of the work we see In
patients' mouths done by supposedly
high-class dentists he would not hold
his Job 24 hours.
Alveolar teeth cannot be told from
natural teeth, except perhaps they are
so much more beautiful than nature's
best product that you may be suspected
of having visited the Teeth Art Shop
1311 to 314 Ablngton building).
If any one is wearing a partial plate
or bridge, and has two or more teeth
left in either jaw, we will supply a full
set, without using plates or bridge
work, that will be as firm In the jaws
as nature's teeth and aa permanent,
and more beautiful.
The work is practically painless and
carries our guarantee of satisfaction.
Curing Ij-orrlie (loose teeth), a dis
ease given up by other dentists as in
curable, is another of our specialties.
We cure it absolutely. It's a boastful
statement to make, but we can do any
thing that is possible in dentistry, and
what we do is always of the very high
est class.. Our booklets. Alveolar Den
tistry, are free. Write for one if you
cannot call. We have samples of our
work to show at all times.
