After a period of quiet in the City Council, a row broke out yesterday over the subject of appropriating money to repair damage done to streets by the recent dirt slides, and to pro tect streets from further damage.

Commissioner Bigelow forthwith ob jected to appropriating money which would beneflt private property. "What-are we paying engineers-for if we can't take their word for a thing?" asked Mayor Albee. "We ap propriated $18.0D0 to clear away snow and help' business about town, without batting an eye. Why all this fuss when there are both lives and prop erty at stake?"

Their interpreta tions differed radically. Senator Chamberlain said that under the reserved right to "amend, alter or repeal," Congress could legislate for the disposition of the land grant as it Baw fit, so long as it guaranteed to the railroad company $2.50 an acre. DAnKaainfatiua T7.wlftv contended the power of Congress is limited and Con gress can enact oniy legmmiiuu wnv.,. will define actual settlers and require "nmnann.

He eaid he had attempted, in his bill,, to protect the interests of actual settlers now on the land. When Representative Sinnott said that that part of the bill was not ade quately drawn to protect all bona fide oMa..a Qanntni' Chfimherlain said that provision could be amended readily to accomplish his purpose. The Senator also told the committee that repeated efforts had bee,n made to reach an agreement with the railroad company under which the land grant controversy could be adjusted amicably and satisfactorily without further liti gation, but asserted the company had repeatedly refused to enter into such a compromise or even to submit any definite proposition which it would consider acceptable. He thought there was little .prospect that the railroad company even now would come forward with a compromise proposition or with o nniltiva statement of what it regards as its rights under the Supreme Court decision. . Hawley Reads Salem Resolutions. nsnraTifiitliiA Hnwlev. in ODenlng. read the resolution adopted by the land conference at Salem and said those resolutions, In his opinion, reflected tne prevailing opinion in Oregon, as the conference was a representative body of citizens. He said he was endeavor ing in his bill to carry out tne in structions of the people of the state. u bum ha hoiieved that if nut to a vote in the land grant counties, the resolution of the conierence woum nave general support. Taking up the Government's conten tion, Mr. Hawley said the Department of Justice nact spent eisni. jk" a good deal of money trying to prove a judicial forfeiture and that was de nied theni by the Supreme Court. Now, he said, the Department of Justice is endeavoring to secure "enforceable re possession" of the lands by legislative T-Trt Mil trtrAstpfi tn the (Committee that it was worth their while to con sider whether tne present suggestions of the Department of Justice would Krt anv mnro tlian the former contention of that department. The Department ot Justice, ne saia. was "obsessed with the idea for forfeiture." Decision Not Constructive. He further said that the decision of the Supreme Court was largely a de cision of denials and that little con structive matter could be derived from it. The court, he said, left it to Con gress to proceed without much discre tion. In the course of bis remarks, Mr. T r ..... 1 .. ,J PdnpBQAnlativR T(!Arthlr presented the I. N.

It was for the committee to decide which of these two theories was the one upon which Con gress should proceed. He thought the first the proper theory.
