PETITION STAGE REACHED
WASHINGTON. Feb. S8 An array of
evidence heard by th Senate Judiciary
committee In It inquiry Into the ap
pointment of C P. Kwaln as United
State Marshal, of Delaware, waa laid
before Lb Senate today by Reed of
Missouri. In urging the passage of bt
resolution providing for an Investiga
tion of .the election of Senator Dupont.
of Delaware.
Senator Reed Insisted. If this evidence
wer given credence, the Senat should
not only Investigate the 1910 election,
but should demand of the Delaware
Senator an explanation of his action In
"recommending for appointment to the
high office of L'nlted Slates Marshal a,
man whom b knew to be engaged In
corrupt practices."
"I deem this to be my solemn duty."
said th Senator, "and shal. be glad if
a thorough Investigation results In com
pletely exculpating th Senator from
Delaware.
-The disclosure mad by the wit
nesses are of such character as to de
mand further investigation. That In
vestigation ought to be courted by any
Innocent man."
Senator Reed reviewed the appoint
ment by President Taft, on Dupont's
recommendation, of Cornelius P. Swain
as United States Marshal of Delaware.
Citizens of Delaware had charged that
Swain waa a persistent vote-buyer and
handled a corruption fund of S60.V00
In the election of 1310. Senator Reed
added:
"Swain, according to the testimony,
waa appointed at the request of Sen
ator Dupont, and If It be true that Sen
ator Dupont recommended him for ap
pointment to the Important office of
United States Marshal for the stat of
Delaware, a man whom h knew to b
engaged In corrupt practice relating to
election, then he offended gravely
agalnat this body by being Instrumental
In bringing such an appoints before
th Senate for ita approval.
Secretary of State Gives First "Public
Address, Which Is Really for
All Central American
Republics to Bear.
PANAMA, Feb. tl Secretary of
State Knox made In Panama tonight
the first of his public addresses on his
trip to the capitals of Central America,
Northern South America and the West
Indie.
This speech, while delivered before
the acting president of Panama, Senor
Rodolfo Chiari. was In reality ad
dressed to all the countries he will
visit, and Includes an explanation of
the attitude of the l'nlted States to
wards South and Central America. Mr.
Knox' address, in part, follows:
"The President of the United States
believes that the early completion of
the Panama Canal should mark the be
ginning Tjf closer relations to all Latin
America, as well as the relations of
these countries to each other, and Im
pelled by the thought that this Is an
auspicious moment, through better ac
quaintance, to lay the foundation upon
which there should rest a broader con
fidence, a closer sympathy an d more
practical reciprocal helpfulness, has
sent me hither as a bearer of a message
of good will to our sister American
republics.
Neighborly Amity Urged.
"I take this opportunity of assuring
all the American republics that the
purpose of the United States toward
them Is that we should live In amity
and that we desire only that more
peace and more prosperity should come
Into their Individual and national lives.
"While It Is entirely clear to those
who bar considered Intelligently the
history of the relations of the United
States to the other American Republics
that our policies have been without a
trace of sinister motive, yet It Is true
that our motives towards you have not
always been interpreted fortunately
either at home, or faithfully repre
sented by some of our nationality who
have resided in your midst.
Caaal to Be Great Does.
"Much has been said about the effect
of the opening of the Panama Canal,
but I believe It Is given to few of u
to realise what magic possibilities are
potential In that event. It will create
for our western world a better situa
tion fraught with possibilities so vast
as to dase the fancy. In this new
world w must be found drawn closer
by sympathies and mutual esteem, and
working In harmony towards benefi
cent ends.
We who live on the western hemi
sphere find ourselves by force of geog
raphy In circumstances which make
our situation peculiar. It waa a per
ception of this, which your own think
ers and statesmen have seen as clear
ly as our own. which prompted the an
nouncement by President Monroe, of
the great and beneficent policy that
now bears bis name.
Uearoe Dee-trim Praised.
Wben tha canal la opened and the
ship of all countries of the world
come sailing through tnese i;arribea.n
seas, the peculiarity of our position
will be accentuated, and the wisdom of
that doctrine again will be confirmed.
In Its future amplification. I perceive
it will be a common heritage, binding
together the nations of the hemisphere
with a force no power can break.
In my Judgment the Monroe doc
trine will reach the acme of its benefi
cence when it is regarded by th peo
ple of the United State as a reason
why w should respond constantly to 1
th needs of those of our Latin Ameri
can neighbors who may find necessity
for our assistance.
It Is a paradox that the severance
of the physical ligament that Joins
the two continents of the New World
will more closely unite them. Culebra
a th old clot In the artery of In
tercourse whose removal will give free
circulation throughout the world or
ganism to the vlvfylng currents of
friendship, peace, commerce and prosperity."

to get a lot in Laurelhurst with the 15 per
cent discount and second mortgage privilege
Half the time gone and more
than half the 200-lot limit sold.
More than 100 home-builders have taken advantage of the building dis
count and second mortgage privilege in Laurelhurst since February 15. Thi3
exceeds the combined sales in all the other high-grade, exclusive residence
additions in Portland for the same period.
Why This Phenomenal Record?
Why Are So Many People Buying
Home Sites in Laurelhurst?
Because they want the builders' discount, they want to take advantage of
the second mortgage privilege; but more than all else, they want a home in
Laurelhurst. Go to see Laurelhurst and you will want a home there, too.
Bear in mind that the building discount and second mortgage privileges
will be withdrawn March 15. After that date the list prices on all lots will be
restored.
We will help you finance the building of your home in Laurelhurst. Come
in and talk it over.

today to see to It that no transconti

Canal. They advocated free traffic

their appeal later before, the Senate
Interstate commerce committee.
William II. Wheele-. of th San Fran
cisco Chamber of Commerce, and Jo
seph N. Teal, of the Portland Chamber
of Commerce, appeared before the com
mittee. Mr. Wheeler contended that
barring railroad companlea from oper
ating steamer through the canal would
not affect them Injuriously.
Mr. Teal urged the committee to op
pose the exaction of any toll on coast
wise shipping using the canal. He
aid the Lax should fall on those bis

rive ttv benefit. Senator Oore de
clared that to Impose no toll would be
unfair to the railroads, which had to
