OSTERHAUS RETIRES TODAY
Question of Promotion of Potts and

WASHINGTON. June 13. Rear Ad-
Senator Cummins went on to ask If
tho railroad and banking mtereata in
New York did. not employ men to "do
the very thing" that he had been doing
"to create a public opinion that shall
be of a certain kind.
"I have heard it so stated, " said Mr.
Palmer.
Wilson Managers Accused.
"'Can you give the committee the
names of these people, so that we can
get them here and have a round-up of
the whole business of trying to color
public opinion in this way?"
"From my general Information I
don't think you would have enough
space in this room for all of them, if
we could get them all together, but I
have no personal Information as to
who the men are."
"Is It general knowledge that any
quantity of large interests are doing
that thing?" Senator Cummins asked.
"We never would have thought of it
had it not been tbat others were doing
took him over the ground about the
printing of "Sugar at a Glance" as a
publio document. He showed him the
original charts that hung in the Sen
ate chamber when Mr. Lodge made his
sugar speech that subsequently ap
peared in that pamphlet, and Mr. Pal
mer again agreed that he had made
changes in some of the charts, left out
some that had appeared in the Senate
and modified, the form of others. When
Senator Reed, continued to press him
he grew indignant.
"You seem to think that because I
represent the beet sugar industry I am
a liar." he said. "You seem to be
seeking to disclose some 'skulduggery.'
I say there isn't a line on those charts
that wasn't there when they came from
the public printer."
Senator Reed and Senator Nelson
came near another clash during the ex
amination, when tho Minnesota Senator
thought Mr. Palmer had talked long
enough about "Sugar at a Glance."
"You are not trying a criminal case
nere. said, senator Nelson, turning to
Senator Reed. "We don't need such
minutiae."
Gmlllncera Intimation Broad.
Senator Gallinger's intimation in
volving President Wilson came pear
the close of his examination and caused
a deep sensation. He was about to
leave the stand. When Senator Reed
asked him a question that detained
him.
When a man says that he would
'hang some one as high as Haman If
that person did not do certain things
said Senator Galllnger. "and that an
industry which proposed reduction of
wages and did so would be invest!
gated. I think that Is about the worst
kind of influence I can Imagine."
"What do you think of a public of
ficial that gets up a scare about an in
sidious lobby?" asked Senator Nelson.
"That he intends to Influence public
opinion and the opinion of public men,"
returned Senator Galllnger.
"Would you regard it as a species of
lobby?"
"From my own inability to define
the term to my own satisfaction, per
haps I would not like to say It was
a species of lobby influence."
"It was an intimation that men are
afraid to use their own judgment lest
the people suspect them of lobbying?"
persisted Senator Nelson.
"It so impressed me," replied Sen
ator Galllnger.
Senator Reed tried to draw the line
between the President acting in behalf
of the people who elected him and pri
vate Interests conducting a campaign
for selfish ends.
Innovation Grieves Senator.
"I am an old-fashioned person," re
plied Senator Galllnger. "I still believe
in the three co-ordinate branches of
the Government, and it grieves me to
see the executive encroaching on the
powers of the others and attempting
to Influence legislation."
"The sugar men were represented,
said Senator Reed. "Don't you think
the President had a right to use his influence?"
"The President has a right to make
his statement in messages to Con
gress."
"You do not want to charge that the
President of the United States has
("brought any kind of coercion to bear
upon any members of Congress?"
"I would not undertake to do so. I
have no disposition to criticise him un
fairly."
Galllnger added that he did know
that many Democrats were complain
ing because more offices were not filled
and more nominations not sent to ths
Senate.
Tou don't mean to intimate that
the President Is holding up certain ap
pointments to compel them to vote for
legislation they do not desire?"
"I make no charge."

OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, "Wash,
ington, June 13. After six weeks of
delay President Wilson today noml
nated Milt A. Miller to be Collector of
Internal Revenue for Oregon. The de
lay in making this appointment is said
to have been due to congestion in the
Treasury Department, but by a coin
cldence the nomination comes only i
day or two after the Democrat leaders
of the Senate assured the President that
all Western Democrats, with the pos
sibie exception of v alsh, of Montana,
will vote for the tariff bill as ratified
by the Democratic caucus.
Miller was Senator Chamberlain's
principal appointee on the Oregon slate
and. by coincidence or otherwise. Miller
was not nominated as long as there
was doubt In the minds of the party
leaders as to how Chamberlain would
vote on the tariff bill.
Other nominations made today were:
Minister to Cuba. William E. Gon
zales, of South Carolina; Minister to
Nicaragua, Benjamin Ij. Jefferson, of
Colorado; Minister to Costa Rica Ed
ward J. Hale, of North Carolina; As
sistant Treasurer of the United States

for a definite term, but at the pleasure
of the President. All of the deputies

PENDLETON SHOW SUCCESS
Exhibition of Roses Will Become an
Annual Attraction.
Bankers Accused or Seeking to Ob
tain Issue of Currency on Pa
per. "Much of It Based on
Rotten Securities.
WASHINGTON. June 13. An under
current of opposition among a consider
able number of House Democrats to the
plan for currency legislation at this
session of Congress took definite shape
today, when Representative Kenry, of
Texas, chafrman of the rules committee.
openly charged that V ail street was
back of the propaganda for currency
legislation. While favoring revision of
both the banking and currency laws at
the next session of Congress. Mr. Henry
insisted that further investigation of
the so-called "money trust" should be
pressed immediately.
The PuJo committee, he declared,
barely scratched the surface of the facts
underlying the concentration of con
trol of money and credit, because the
Controller of the Currency refused ac
cess to his records, making it impossible
for the investigators to expose com
pletely the existing relations between
the "Wall street bankers and their allies
"with the trust and monopolies, stock
gamblers and financial conspirators.
Wall-Street Motive Questioned.
"Wall street bankers, he added, "now
are demanding legislation on tho cur
rency question iyi order that they may
make a market" for their commercial
paper, much of it based on rotten 5
curlties, and have currency issued on
their assets.
Mr. Henry introduced a bill to amend
the banking laws so as to make bank
Ing associations subject to the lnqulst
torlal powers "exercised or directed
by Congress or by either house of Con
gress.
While this was going on it became
known that the Administrative measure
would be introduced in the House next
Tuesday and that the full committee ot
the House probably would meet to take
up the bill within the next day or two
President Wilson Is expected to send a
message on the subject probably Tues
day.
"It Is an imperative duty to pass cur
rency legislation at this session of Con
gress, said Representative Crlaes to
night. "It seems singular to me that
any well-informed member of Congress
should Imagine that the need is not
urgent."
Issue Declared Confused.
Mr. Henry in his statement accom
panying his bill declared the "Wall-
street bankers, thinking the people con
fused this upset with tariff revision,
have begun their old scheme of en
deavoring to hurry through a plan giv
ing the right to Issue or have issued
by the Government asset currency.
The bankers and their allies want
to make a market for their papers and
securities and. control the country's cur
rency and cause the Government to ab
dicate the functions of issuing and con
trolling the currency," he added. "There
Is positively at present no need ot an
emergency currency bill. The Aldrich-
Vreelend bill is on the statutes and bas
a year to live. It certainly suffices for
that length of time.'
Charging that the only aim of the
Wall-street bankers was to pass the
Aldrich bill, "veneered over so as to
fool the people," Mr. Henry said the
voters would be "wise to wake up and
prepare for the greatest struggle they
ever fought with the New iork bank.
