CLARK URGES ALL
TO TRUST WILSON
Speaker Says President Bears
Heavier Burden Than Any
Since Lincoln.
PROSPERITY IS PREDICTED
Pressing of Federal, State, County
and Municipal Works Advised.
Wilson Rated Among Great ,
Men in American History.
PHILADELPHIA. March 17. Speaker
Clark, addressing the Friendly Sons of
St. Patrick here tonight, eulogized Pres.
ldent Wilson "as among the great Pres
idents whose names can be counted on
the fingers of one hand."
"It Is no exaggeration to say that he
bears a heavier load than any President
Elncie Lincoln has borne." the Speaker
said.
Speaker Clark reviewed at length the
work of the ljemocratic Congress,
which, he said, had been accompliuhed
with the aid and approval of Repub
lican and Progressive votes, and pre
dicted that no political party could
carry 10 states on the repeal of the in
come tax. He declared the country was
apidly recovering from the depression
of the European war and to speed pros
perity urged that all Federal, state,
county and municipal works be pressed.
Trcaldent Bears Heavy Load.
"The Congress has done its work,"
he said. "Senators and Representatives
have returned to their homes. The
President remains in Washington be
cause of the ticklish situation in which
we find ourselves by reason of the
trans-Atlantic war and the Mexican
civil war. It is no exaggeration to say
that he bears a heavier load than any
President since Lincoln has borne. No
man. no men. can relieve him of his
burden. His troubles, being purely ex
ecutive in character, are his and his-
alone. In the very nature of things he
knows more what is going on abroad
than docs any other man in America,
because he has better means of informa
tion. "Every good citizen, without ref
erence to politics or religion, should
trust him and uphold him in this
crisis of our country's fate. May God
Sive him the wisdom, courage and
strength to keep us out of entangle
ments with foreign nations and lead
us in the paths of peace.
Redemption of t'ledgeft Promised.
The Baltimore platform contained a
multitude of promises. N e nave re
deemed many of them. While neither a
nronhct nor the son cf a propnet.
make bold to predict that in the next
two years we will redeem the re
mainder. Rome was not built rh a day.
but nevertheless Rome was built. There
is a limit to the power of men to
labor montally or physically. Two
years were not enough time in which
to place our extensive and patriotic
programme upon the statute books,
though the 63d Congress sat more days
and enacted more constructive legis
lation than any other that ever met. I
have not even the shadow of a doubt
that the historian of our times will
pronounce it a great congress. We
have fought a good tight. We have
kept the faith. The people will in
dorse and reward us.
"The brilliant Benjamin Disraeli,
Earl of Beaconsfield. declared that
contemporaneous foreign opinion as to
a public man is identical with the final
verdict of history. Most assuredly,
then. Woodrow Wilson will be rated
among the 'great Presidents whose
names can be counted on the fingers
of one hand.
Shoe w on Other FiKtt.
"For more than a half century Re
publicans have "pointed with pride' and
Democrats have 'viewed with alarm.'
Now the boot is on the other foot. At
the present juncture Democrats "point
with prii and. alack. Republicans
view with alarm. They were fore
ordained and predestined to dwell in
the cave of Adullum.
"These complainants divide them
selves into two classes first, those
who. with coimtenanrcs sorrowful as
that of the Knight De la Mancha. but
with glee in their souls and hope in
their hearts, vociferate, purely for po
litical effect, that the country is going
to "the demnition bow-wows." In their
case the wish is father to the thought.
The second class, suffering from the
mulagrubs. is much larger, consisting
of honest, hut timid, persons, forever
seeing ghosts, who in fat years look
forward fearfully to possible lean years
and who are greatly worried by the
lamentations of the Cassandras and
marplots aforementioned. These two
classes keep up a howl tliat the coun
try is going to the dogs and scare
people out of their nits, thereby re
tarding progress.''

Kail Coiiinilr-sion Demands Clause in
Contracts for Crossings.
SALEM. Or.. March 1 7. (Special.)
Notice has been served by the State
Railroad Commission on all railroads
in Oregon that henceforth when con
tracts between two roads relative to
one line crossing the . other's right of
way are' made they must contain a
clause providing for physical connec
tion between the lines, if the Com
mission believes that such should be
done.
The Commission notified the North
Bank road that it would not approve
A contract between the Oregon Elec
tric. United Railways and Portland,
Eugene Eastern relative to the cross
ing at the intersection- of Front and
Jefferson streets. Portland, because it
fails to provide that if the companies
were required by the commission
connect their tracks, the order would
be obeyed.
In its communication the commissio '
says:
"Whenever contracts between differ
ent lines are submitted for approval of
the Commission It will be necessary
that they shall provide for physical
connection for the interchange of traf
fic, if .required so to do by the Com
mission or other duly authorized
authority: 'no contract not carrying
this provision will be approved here
after." '

better man for the task you have in

Bishop William F. Anderson wrote

"I have known Dr. Doney for a num

whom I am acquainted. His work at
West Virginia Wesleyan College has

every particular. He is sane, aggres
sive, enterprising, and devoted to the
last ounce of energy, both of body and
mind. I would count his appointment
to Willamette as most fortunate for
the institution." i

rants Slay Be Met, Too.
OLTMPIA, Wash., March 17. (Spe
cial.) Whether State Auditor Clausen
and Deputy Pedersen, of the State Bu
reau of Inspection, who left yesterday
on a trip to the San Francisco and San
Diego expositions, as authorized by the
Legislature, will be compelled to foot
the bills themselves or not will be de
cided by Governor Lister during their
absence.
The $600 for the California trip is to
come out of a $12,000 apropriatlon
mado by the Legislature for its own
expenses, which Governor Lister has
not yet approved and which he may' de
cide to veto, on the ground that the
$105,000 originally appropriated should
have been sufficient.
Before Mr. Clausen left for Califor
nia Governor Lister called upon him
to give full information concerning the
uses to which the $12,000 was to be put.
This information was not furnished by
Mr. Clausen to the extent desired by
the Governor, who, however, is pursu
ing his investigation as to the need
for the adidtional $12,000, securing in
formation from Secretary Daljam, of
the Senate, and Chief Clerk Maybury,
of the House.
Already some $438 has been paid
from the special appropriation not yet
signed and many other claims are be
ing held up.
Should Governor Lister veto this
bill, Auditor Clausen will be responsi
ble not only for his own expenses on
the California trip, but also for war
rants issued by him already against
the appropriation.
