Democrats Join Republicans in
Voting for Inquiry
Into Costs.
CLARK BECOMES PROPHET
He TrnM Tart to .Appoint Good
Democrats, bat Says Democratic
PrHdfnt Will Appoint Three
After March 4, It IS.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 10. The Hons
rt Representatives passed the tariff
commission bill at l:JO tonlKht by a.
vote of lac to J. a large number of
Democrats, -nciudlng Champ Clark,
voting for It.
Th flrt test rot waa taken at
7:49 P. M.. when a motion to strlk
oat th enacting claaa was rejected
br IK to . The final vol waa de
layed by Democratic efforts to amend
the bill, but ail amendment wr roted
w n-
- Oenrral debate, on th rule and sub
sequently on th bill Itself soon devel
oped a decided difference of opinion on
the Imocratic side, although the Demo
rratlc members of th ways and means
committee bad voted with the Repub
licans In reporting It.
PsIselL. of Pennsylvania, and Chairman
Payne, of the ways and means com
mittee, explained th provisions of th
treasure. question aros aa to who
should be In chars; of th Democratic
time during ireneral debate, whether It
be a Democrat favoring th bill or on
opposing t.
t This art some of the Republicans to
y laughing.
-1 hope," said Payne, that th gentle
men on th other side, whoever they are.
:a get together on some gentleman
whom they hare confidence In."
Champ Clark Flashes Fire.
Champ Clark, who already had Indi
ra ted that he favored th bill, waa on
bis feet In a flish.
"A little more of that kind of 'gab'
n your side." be retorted hotly, "and
your bill Is d-d."
"Kt!l It! Kill It!" shouted a dozen
Democrats.
Finally It was agreed that Payne of
New York and Harrison of New York
hould us th time, th latter In oppo
sition. After Payne had earnestly urged tne
p.istago of the bill. Clark took th floor.
"For some time' he said, "there has
been a proposition pending In th United
States In a sort of a nebulous way
frr a tariff rommUalon: that la. an In
stitution Intended to undertake to Ox
rates. I waa opposed to that last year,
and I am opposed to that this year, be
cause It Is miotic. It Is Idiotic because
th Constitution of th United States ab
solutely precludes such a perform an ce.
Bo much for that.
Board to lie port to Congress.
"There is pending her now a proposi
tion to establish a tariff board that la to
have specified functions. These func
tion are to gather Information and col
lace It. Last year th proposition con
cerning a almllar board was that It
should report to th President.
"I aald then, and I voiced th senti
ment of a good many persons, that the
Democrats did not object to Information
from any source on the tariff question,
and that. If you were going to have m
tariff board, it ought to report to th
House. I do not know that It would do
very much good. However. I do not
believe It would da very much harm, if
any.
"The proposition for a tariff board has
been so amended In this pending bill that
t.'ie board shall report to the genale. or
report to the President or report to the
!uev. on the motion of the Democrats
in the committee it was fixed so that
fie House shsll be competent to direct
the subjects that this board shall In
vest gate. Thl makes an entirely dif
ferent situation. I voted for that bill
In the committee; I am going to vote
for It here. Of course there. Is no use
to conceal the condition. We have got
the House after March 4 and we pro
pose to carry out In good faith the
tromle to tevle the tar.ff. and we are
going to do It Just a soon mm w can.
Taft Will Appoint 'Good Democrats.'
"Personalty. I would like very well to
see an extra semion of Congress, but
there is only on man on the face of the
eartu who can call aa extra aesstan of
Congress and that Is the President. If
the evening papera are to be believed,
he I going to call an extra session unlem
re get his reciprocity scheme through
this 0ngree.
"He ha adopted one more Democratic
principle. Give him time enough and
be mill adopt them alL While he is
tirglng a reciprocity treaty with Canada
end 1 am In favor of that I wish be
would extend Its operation so as to take
in our ntster republics on the south, every
one of them in the western hemisphere.
"The new board is to be a bi-partisan
one. I ue the word 'bi-partisan' accu
rately. Such a thing as a non-rartlsan
board si an tmpebtllty in nature. I
wub we could Clx It so there would be
t ire Iemocrat and two Republicans on
that board at once, but that w cannot
t ave; but on .March a, 19U. w can get
thre Democrats to your two Republi
cans, which ks th way this board will
then stand.
"If th President will appoint five of
te bent men h can find. I think It will
be able to collect much Information. But
J want thla understood, that. If he ap
points two Democrat. I want them to be
lmocrats In fact as well a In name.
"1 think Taft la a fair-minded man
and he will do It." continued Clark. "H
v. m need ua to pass bill In a very short
tlm and he 1 liable to give us good
Democrat this request."
Fitzgerald Voices Opposition.
Fitzgerald of New York was the first
to vote Democratic opposition to th
bilL
flier Is." he said, "a so-called tariff
board toxiky existing in express viola
tion of the law. The President sold be
construe.! the Payne-Aldrlch tariff act to
. give htm authority to appoint a tariff
board, but Payne. In hie speech upon this
very bill to thla House, says the so-called
tariff board Is exiting bv virtue of a
provision In the last sundry civil appro
priation act."
Under thl act. he asserted, "no more
authority was given to create a tariff
board than waa given In the Payne act
authority to employ person to assist th
president In obtaining Information to en
force th maximum and minimum pro
vision of the law."
Longwortb of Ohio, led the long list of
speakers on the Republican side. He
ewid he did not favor delegating rate
making or rate recommendation powers
to any tariff board or commie Ion and
that no such action was contemplated.
The House must always retain the right,
he said, to Initiate revenue legislation.

"The Archbishop had a bad night, but ia a little better this morning."
The relatlvea of Archblahop Ryan were called to his bedside today.
on the Democratic erde in favor of the
board.
Amendment All Rejected.
The first amendment offered by the
Democrats came from James of Ken
tucky. It provided for the appointment
of two minority members by the mi
nority party ia the Senate and House
of Representatives. James said he did
not think a Republican President was
qualified to select the members of the
bi-partisan board. James' amendment
waa lost by a yea and nay vote. 1XT
to 143.
Rarnhardt of Indiana offered an
amendment allowing the President to
appoint one member, the presiding of
ficer of the Senate two and the
Speaker two. The amendment waa lost,
130 to 14.
The Democrats then sought to limit
the expenditures of the board, first, to
1:50.000 and then to JG00.000 a year.
Both propositions were lost.
Various other amendments offered by
the Iemocrata were voted down.
The bill creates a permanent tariff
board In Ilea of the present board,
which Is a creature of a provision of
the sundry civil appropriation bill and
which will expire by tta own limita
tions on June 30.
The board la to consist of five mem
bers, not more than three of whom
shall be of the same political party.
The board la to have Its principal of
fice In Washington and ia empowered
to sit In any other place In the United
Etatea and In foreign countries.
PKXSIOX BIIJCj IS IX DOUBT
Will Taft Veto It? Ia Question In
the Senate Committee.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 30. Doubt as to
whether President Taft would veto a
general pension bill complicated the
situation In the Senate committee on
penslona when this proposed legisla
tion was considered.
There are two measures before the
committee, the Sulloway bill, which
passed the House and which would add
about I45.000.OOS annually to the pen
sion rolls, and the McCumber bill,
which would add about 315. 000.000.
Half a dosen speakera favored the
Fulloway bill aa th only on that
would b generally acceptable to th
old soldiers.

BELIEVED TO BE ON DEATHBED
: .-:
DEPOSITS ARE LESS
National Bank Reports Show
Decrease on January 7.
NEW YORK CHIEF LOSER
Robin Failure and Dividend Pay
ment Are Partial Explanation.
Banks Healthy With More Cash
and Excess Over Reserve.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 30. Deposits of
Individuals in the 7200 National banks
of the United States decreased 3191.
EM.48I between November 10 and Jan
uary 7 a situation probably unprece
dented In the reports made to the Con
troller of the Currency.
More than 31u8.000.000 was with
drawn from 39 National banks of New
York City. No two officials of the
treasury agree as to where the money
went. Some are of the opinion part of
It might have gone to strengthen the
New York state banks and trust com
panies In the flurry caused by the
Robin failure. Others think the huge
withdrawal represented Interest pay
ments piled up In anticipation of the
Janaury dividend day.
A comparison with the National
banks of Chicago shows that the drop
was confined almost entirely to New
York. The 11 Chicago banks reported
a loss of about 39.000,000 In Individual
deposits. Th reserve banks of the
Western and Pacific Slates and the
New England States show losses, com
paratively small.
The unexpected call on January 7
served to show the condition of the
banks at a new angle. Not since 1879
have they been called upon so early In
the year. Some think that. If the call
bad been mad as usual, late In the
month or early In February, the money
If It were withdrawn for dividend
payments, would have found Its way
Into the banka again.
One peculiar aspect of the drop was
that the New York banks alone lost as
much aa the combined banks of the
country had gained In November.
Another feature that generally pus
sies the Treasury experts is that, in
spite of the 'enormous slump In depos.
Its. the banks are holding a higher
percentage of reserve than in Novem
ber and the total loss In loans and dis
counts has been only 348.000.000. while
there ha been a gain in caah of more
than 320.000.000.
The banks of the South are about th
only ones showing gains of deposits.
Still the banks are now holding
388.000,000 more In reserve than re
quired by law. On the whole., the
showing Is pronounced good.

you have abolished the star-cnamDer

given us the chance to meet you In
the open and talk things over and what
Is said and done to be a matter of
pTTbllo record.
"Now, as to tne special investigating
committee's report in reference to asy
lum matters. Considerable stress Is
laid on the fact that I asked the last
session's ways and means committee
for an automobile. I did this at the
request of the Board. It was refused
la the special appropriation. After
several months the subject was dis
cussed by the Board and me. that It
would be a business proposition to pur
chase an automobile as there was much
construction going on at the farm and
main buildings and that it would be a
verr proper Item of expense compared
with the results to be obtained. The
voucher for the same speak for them
selves.
Vouchers Are Cited.
"They are correct or I would not
have signed them; but I defy any man
In Oregon to say that I ever rode for
personal pleasure a mile on the state's
gasoline. Senator Bowerman knows
that when he had me called from the
hospital to take htm to McMInnvllle
In - the campaign. I drove the car
down to the garage, had it filled and
paid for it out of my own pocket; Mr.
Beals, on the floor of this House, will
tell you that he saw me pay a mer
chant at Tillamook out of my own cash
for a trip. I Instructed Mr. Strang,
our chief engineer, and Arralne, who
have charge of the gasoline at the
hospital, to be certain that I never
consumed any of the state's gasoline.
I admit that a part of the wear and
tear mar be due to some of these trips
which I have mentioned, which Is a
trivial matter. But who In the Legis
lature will stand up and say that this
car has been used for the conveyance
of patletfts from adjacent counties; to
take patients hurriedly to trains and
traveling agents who .must rush, and J
properly so, to bring In committed pa- '
tlents; to take steward and bookkeeper
out to make necessary purchases for
wood, supplies and so forth?"

minded man. This la not an ox-team
age and people demand service which
only telephones, automobiles, electric
utilities and the like supply. But before
purchasing this I consulted with the
Senators on this hold-over committee.
Dr. Wood told me that he thought It was
all right and proper. He also told R. B.
Goodln (who Is present at this time) the
same thing. -Senator Nottingham told
me that it was all right. Governor
Bowerman has told me that, in his opin
ion. It was proper that the hospital
should have this automobile. Who ques
tions It on the basis of business?
"Now as to the furnishing of the cot
tages. Early in the year I Instructed
my wife, aa well as the wife of Dr. Grlf
fifth (a man who has grown old in the
20 years' service of the state, to the
value of which thousands of people in
Oregon will attest) that they would be
limited to $1200 for furnishing their cot
tages, an amount Vch no one can crit
icise' who has furnished a house In the
last year or two. They selected the
thing which they chose fit to satisfy
our demands."
Rug Purchase Economic.
"The "Wilton rug of JIBS, which waa
so dwelt upon, is a big carpet running
through two rooms and "s not an ex
travagant article, but In the long run
economical. The property Is there and
the people, I assure you, have had a
good run for their money. In the list
was some champagne glasses for Dr.
Griffith's cottage, which was referred to
in a speech, leaving the innuendo that
we were living riotously on the fat of
the land. In all of Oregon, where Is
there a person who will say that a bottle
of champagne was ever opened in my
bouse 7 If the doctor chose to on some
occasion. It waa his own ncern, at his
own expense. In fact, these glasses
were used solely as sherbet glasses.
"Dr. Tamlesle, another estimable mem
ber of the sAaff, was living In rather a
niggardly house and was permitted to
expend 232.70, which is also charged up
to Steiner. I have no excuse to offer
for this; it Is very proper that men of
worth serving the state should be paid
commensurate with their services; If not,
such men as Dr. W. T. Williamson and
J. P. Calbreath and men of their stripe
will not long stay to take care of these
poor God-ab&ndoned creatures.
Snap Judgment Alleged.
"I refer you to page B2S of the gen
eral laws of Oregon, 1909. where you
have included Item after item in lump
amounts without designating any spe
cial amount for any one specific Item.
It might be that this could have been
procured, but the law Itself is what
we followed. We went as far as we
could with that money; spent it hon
estly and judiciously, combined with
the judgment of some of the best minds
of Oregon In the Interests of the tax
payers and above all, the patients.
"Much stress has been laid on de
ficiency. On page 21 of my last bien
nial report we asked for 1502,500 and
were cut down to $490,000 "by the same
kind of snap Judgment and were told
that If there was a deficiency to bring
in the bill. We are asking for 1736
patients a per capita of $14, which
makes a total of $683,296. If you want
us to give these patients less to eat,
less warmth, less clothing and less
careful and tender nursing, less medical
service and so on, cut It down."
$1500 Bet on Truth.
"But I will not stand for it. I have
been until the last few days alone in
fighting for the patients. Get a new
man if you want him. but I stand for
the principles of doing the most good for
the least amount of money for these
patients.
"These are a part of the things I have
wanted to tell the Legislature about.
"I am willing to do everything practical
for the patients and ask your co-operation
to bring about the best results. Send out
if you wish an Investigating committee;
that Is what we court but send out one

Have you seen'the magnificent array
of Pianola Pianos in the large west
show window of Eilers Music House?
Have you noted the reduced prices at
which these Instruments are now being
offered?
We decided some time ago to discon
tinue selling the Pianola Piano.
During the past two years several
other makes of player pianos, notably
the autoplano. were gradually de
veloped, which embodied some very
Important and much-needed im
provements. Naturally Eilers Music
House decided upon the representation
of the Improved article. Since that time
a number of our dealers throughout
the "West, upon seeing these latest im
proved player pianos. Immediately ar
ranged for the agency.
Finding that these dealers did not
have sufficient show room to display
many different makes at one time, we
agreed to take off their hands what
ever Pianola Pianos they carried.
The same situation prevailed at some
of our own smaller stores.
Thus we were compelled to have
these Pianola Pianos shipped to Port
land. Most of them are the very lat
est design, absolutely new Instruments.
There are also some that have been
used shorter or longer period of time,
these latter having been taken In part
payment for new Improved Decker and
Lester and our own, the Eilers De Luxe
Player Pianos, as well as for the
higher-priced styles of the new Auto-
f ilano. These instruments are now be
