TIIE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 6, 1914. 13 FELICITATIONS POUR IN OH CHAMBERLAIN R. A. Booth and C. B. Moores Among Those to Extend Congratulations. GRATITUDE IS EXPRESSED Tout of State "With Colleague JPro posed to Get Idea of local Re quirements, Particularly for River and Harbor Aid. CONGRATCLATORY MESSAGES RECEIVED YESTERDAY BY SENATOR CHAMBERLAIN. Tho vote Just given you by the electorate of our state, re-elect lng you to the United States Sen ate, is highly complimentary to you. I wish you a pleasant and successful term. R. A. Booth. Tho latest reports indicate your election. This is a remark able personal tribute. I keenly regret the defeat of Senator Booth, but I doff my hat to you as the great unlicked and unllck able. Accept my cordial congrat ulations. C. B. Moores, Republi can state chairman. "I shall remain in the. future as in the past permanently on the Job and to the best of my humble ability look after the matters that affect the indi vidual citizens as well as the matters that affect tne general interests of the state," declared Senator Chamberlain yesterday after his re-electloa had been assured. Senator Chamberlain was in his of fices in the Chamber of Commerce building all day and had a busy time of It meeting a constant stream of friends who called to offer congratula tions, and in answering telegrams, let ters and telephone calls. He received scores of letters and telegrams from residents of Oresfon ana-numerous messages of congratula tion from hla colleagues in the Senate, including Senator Lee. of Maryland, Senator O'Gorman, of New York, and Others. ' - But none of the many words of fe licitation that poured in upon him caused him greater pleasure and happi ness than the messages from Robert A. Booth, his Republican opponent, and C. B. Moores, chairman of the Republi can state committee, each of whom complimented him upon his remarkable vote and wished him continued, success. Senator Chamberlain long has been on terms of personal friendship with both Mr. Booth and Mr. Moores, and. replied to them in kind. . Trip Through State Proposed. Now that the heat of the campaign Is over nd the excitement attending the election has passed away, Oregon's senior Senator proposes to turn his at tention to official duties. He will rest for a. few days at his home in Port land, and then, in company with Sen ator Lane, his colleague, may visit some of - the. sections of the state that are In need of river and. harbor improve ments. "I certainly feel deeply grateful to tho people of Oregon for the splendid vote of confidence given tne,"- he Baid yesterday. "I would like to thank them Individually, but can only do so through the medium of the press." In referring to the work now before Congress, he called attention to the fact that much has been accomplished by the Wilson Administration in the last 18 months. "Much- has been done," he said, "to take our Government out of private control and place it in the hands of the people through the Instrumentality of boards such as the Interstate Commerce Commission, which are vested with large powers. - "Further instances of this kind are enactment of the currency law and creation of the Federal Trades Com mission. "The first of these now is recognized as the greatest piece of financial legis lation ever enacted by Congress. The second will put an end to unfair compe tition and conspiracies in restraint of trade. Important Matters Pending. "But there remains some legislation of National importance to dispose of at the next session. Those matters in which Oregon is Immediately interested are: Appropriations for rivers and har bors, reclamation of -arid lands and a safe and; sane conservation of natural .resources. "Incident to the last subject are ques tions afCectlng homesteads and the ac quisition of title to public domain. "I propose, during my term in the Senate, to do what I can to procure adequate appropriations for the river - and harbor improvements, and do hope that I may have the support of the press as well as the people. "The rivers and harbors bill may be denounced as a pork-barrel proposition, but our people might as well under stand now as at any time that we can not denounce appropriations for water way -improvements in other states and expect to procure assistance for the waterways of Oregon. "mere nave been items in every rivers and harbors bill which might nave Been eliminated in the public in terest, but instances of that kind are rare. Protest Blamed to Railroads. "The opposition to these approprla tions usually comes from the great transportation companies, which recce nlze the danger of river and harbor Improvements, because improved water ways mean freight rate regulations. "In other words, the same influences that oppose waterways improvements opposed the construction of the Panama Canal. This opposition will be greater In the future than In the past, and It is for this reason that I express the hope that the people and the press will be behind the Oregon delegation in the future In its efforts to procure ade quate appropriations. "I believe in the conservation of neu tral resources, but the time is coming, if it has not yet arrived, when the ag ricultural lands within forest reserves ought to be opened up for settlement and cultivation. . "The Roosevelt Administration went farther toward reservation of public lands for forestry, - water power and reclamation purposes than any other, while it has been the purpose of the present Administration to release as rapidly as possible from such reserva tions lands that are suitable for agri cultural purposes. Land Being Restored tm Entry. "The records of the Interior Depart ment show that v8.000.000 acres of such land have been released within the past year and more of it is to be with drawn in the near future. "But had it not been for these vast reservations every are Included in Jhem now, long ago would have been taken by timber and other syndicates. In the hands of such persons they would have been Just as effectually withdrawn from public use as they are now under the present system. "Yet, It must not be forgotten that the lands in the reserves belong to the people, while immense bodies of land under syndicate control are with drawn from the people. "Under the efficient administration of Secretary Lane I have no doubt that a general legislative programme will be adopted to relieve the . conditions now complained of with respect to for est and other reserves and kindred sub jects. "I am a member of the public lands committee and expect to be in a posi tion where I may render assistance to the Administration in revising the land laws to meet present conditions. Section 9 Opposed. "Reclamation work is progressing in Oregon and elsewhere in the semi-artd-l regions with such haste as is compat ible with healthy development. "Nearly every candidate for Con gressional office in Oregon, and for nearly every other office for that mat ter, has been ' promising if elected, to reinstate section 9 of the original reclamation act, which declares that the Secretary of the Interior is com pelled to expend the major portion of the funds arising from the sale of pub lic lands In each state or territory for the benefit of the arid lands within the limits of such state or territory. "These promises never can be per formed, and they ought not to be, for the simple reason that some of the states which have no feasible reclama tion projects have been large contrib utors to the reclamation fund. There fore, the funds which would have gone to other states for expenditures In ex periments now go to states which, like Oregon, have feasible projects. Reclamation Service Cnrbed. "Further than that. Congress has gone one step, and at the last session It took away from the reclamation serv ive the expenditure of reclamation funds. Hereafter, all appropriations for reclamatioin work will be made by Congress. "As a matter of fact, Oregon has fared better than any other state in the matter of expenditure for reclama tion work. The reclamation record for April last shows that S3 per cent of the money paid into the fund by Ore gon has been spent in Oregon. Compare this with the records of some of the other .states: Oklahoma has got back only 3 per cent; North Dakota 19 per cent; Kansas 42 per cent; South Dakota 50 per cent, and Califor nia 52 per cent. "So it will be seen that Oregon has received a larger percentage of moneys that she contributed to the reclamation fund than any other state in the union. All this talk, therefore, by aspirants for political office of Oregon losing $8,000,000 through Inattention of rep resentatives of Oregon, "Washington and other Western . Btates, is nothing but nonsense." SCHOOLS AID ORCHESTRA BOARD ALSO FAVORS PLATROOH FOR LADD CHILDREN. Educational A' aloe of Manic Recognised and S1000 Will Be Given 'if Law Doe-a Not Spoil Plan. Members of the School Board went on record yesterday at the regular bi monthly meeting in favor of appropri ating $1000 to help support the Port land Symphony Orchestra and in favor of allowing the children of the Ladd School to play on the park blocks, in front of the school premises. The need of funds to defray the ex penses of the Symphony Orchestra was explained by William D. Wheelwright, honorary president of the orchestra; Horace D. Ramsdejl. president of the Commercial Club; Charles F. Berg, president of the Portland Ad Club; J. C. English, president of the Rotary Club; A. H. Averill, president of the Chamber of Commerce, and Jacob Kanz- ler, president of the Progressive Busi ness Men s Club. If it is found legal to. donate $1000 to tho orchestra in return for the mu sical instruction given the students who attend the Friday morning re hearsals of the orchestra, there is little doubt but that the money asked will be subscribed by the board. That the pupils of the Ladd School have the friendship of tne entire per sonnel of the board was evidenced yes terday when the question of play ground privileges came up. "There is no law bigger than the people," commented Director Smith, "The people own those park blocks and the children who attend Ladd School and who need that playground space are representative of Portland lam ilies." The City commission a . year as"0 gave us permission to allow the chil dren to play on. that block," said Di rector Sommer. "Since Commissioner Brewster has seen fit to fence off the property I move that we send a com municatlon to the Mayor and the Com missioners requesting the use of the two park blocks on either side of the forbidden ground until such time as the seeded ground on the original play site has become settled. The board officially admitted about 150 pupils who reside outside of Mult nomah County to the Portland schools. Of these 42 needy pupils were exempt ed from tuition. On motion of Director Sommer $1000 was appropriated to cover the cost of an educational exhibit in the Oregon building at the San Francisco Expos! tlon.

While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youth ful appearance ana attractiveness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, no one can tell, be cause it does so naturally, so evenly. You Just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared, and, alter another appli cation or two, your nalr becomes beau tifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant.
