M1THI1B MAKES REPLY
REPRESENTATIVE ACCEPTS
LABOR COUNCIL CHALLENGE
Keynote of Candidacy Apparently
Sounded in Statement on
Stand on Strike Right.
OREOONIAX NEWS BUREAU,
Washington, Feb.. 8. Representative
McArthur today issued a public state
ment in which he accepted the chal
lenge of the Central Labor council of
Portland on his recent speech in the
house in favor of the anti-strike pro
vision of the Cummins railroad bill.
Altnough the Portland representa
tive's statement is not an official
declaration of his candidacy for re
nomination, it apparently sounds the
key note of his campaign. The full
text follows! .......
My attention . hax . been called to a pet
t resolutions adopted by the Central La
bor council of Portland at its regular meet
ing on January 22. These resolutions de
nounce me for a speech which 1 delivered
hi the bouse on January IT entitled "Anti
Strlke Legislation and the Public Wellara"
and call for my defeat at the coming elec
tion. I accept the challenge of these gen
tlemen and hope the fight at the May pri
maries will hinge oa the question of
whether we are to have government of, hy
and for the people or of, by and for the
labor unions. I am ready and willing to
go before the people of my district in the
May primaries or in the November election
on this issue.
1 have taken-the position that the pub
lic interest is paramount to the interest of
ny group or faction of the people and that
no railroad officer or employe has the
right to force a lockout or strike against
the public peace, health or safety where
the government has provided a fair and
Impartial tribunal for the settlement of
disputes between capital and labor. Th
right of the people to travel on legitimate
business and to ship food, fuel and cloth-
ng, is more important than the alleged
right to tie up the transportation systems
of the country in order to uring aDout
an Increase la wages for a faction of the
people.
The Central Labor council of Portland
charges me with misrepresenting the peo
ple of my district, in this matter. 1 am
quite willing to let the people decide this
question at the ballot box and hope the
Central Labor council will produce or In
dorse an opponent who will take their
side of this question. I believe 1 know
thft temper of the people of Multnomah
county and am confident that they are In
favor of legislation in me interest or an

PLAGIARISMJS CHARGED
Pierre Benoit Denies Stealing Plot
or Rider Haggard's "She."
(Copyright by the New Tork World. Pub
lished by Arrangement.)
PARIS. Feb. 8 (Special Cable.)
A charge of plagiarism has been made
against the well-known author Pierre
Benoit. whose book, "Atlantide," was
crowned by the Academy. Rider Hag
gard's "She" is regarded here as be
ing made the flimsy foundation. M.
Benoit says he never read "Sh." that
ha does not read English, and that the
book has never been translated into
French. He gives a long list of sci
entific and travel authorities on which
he worked to provide the basis for
his romance, and the suggestion seems
reasonable that Haggard used the
came books for the same purpose.
Benoit's book in its own way is
quite as brilliant as Haggard's, espe
cially its descriptions of. savage life
and manners: and he works up the
element of-- the mysterious in con
nection with tbe Touaregs to a dis
tinctly more thrilling effect. The, case
-will in due course be investigated by
the Academy to decide whether
5enolt' book shall be uncrowned.
The process is likely to occupy con
siderable time.

New York's 90 delegates, headed by
Elihu Root, to be elected in a conven
tion on February 19,' will be unin-
structed, but up to this time the lead
ing candidates are said, to be General
Wood, Nicholas Murray Butler and
Senator Poindexter. The Poindexter
strength is obtained through the old
Whitman organization and through
the sympathetic help of Senator Cal-
der, who is likewise friendly to Hiram
Johnson.
Root Is Mysterious.
The mystery in New Tork hangs
on the question where Root stands.
He has been credited to Wood by
several "authorities, but ho has re
mained silent while supporters of
other candidates denied - it. Frank
Hitchcock, former national chairman,
is another man of mystery. He is
claimed by both Wood and Lowden
and it is important to know which
way be leans because he probably can
accomplish more in the south than any
other man. Dispatches to the Wash
ington Star today say that Wood is
leading 'in Indiana, Minnesota and
New Hampshire. A straw vote taken
in the New Hampshire constitutional
convention resulted as follows:
Wood US, Coolidge 22, Johnson 6.
Lowden 6, Hoover 4. Harding 2,
Hughes 1. Watson L
The Arkansas delegation will be un
lnstructed, but Lowden is thought to
be the favorite. The republican state
executive committee of Mississippi
having indorsed General Wood yes
terday it is expected he will have
that state's delegation. - Wood for the
republican nomination and Hoover for
the democratic choice appear to be
leading In West Virginia, according
to Star dispatches.
The outlook for Wood in Connecti
cut is reported as unfavorable, with
Lowden and Harding showing some
strength. The delegation will be un
instructed..
Hope of American Support Held in
No Sense Prompted by Self
ish Considerations.
LONDON, Fab.' 87 (Special Cable.)
The Daily News publishes in an
editorial the statement by the British
charge d'affaires at . Washington,
which, it considers, "says plainly some
plain things that needed saying."
"It cannot be made too clear either
here or In America." continues the
editorial, "that hope of America's con
tinued support, during the transition
to peacs conditions, of the nations
she decided to suppSrt in war in
1917 is prompted in no sense by a
desire of benefit for Great Britain,
but solely by anxiety that the des
perate financial conditions of manv
of the lesser European states shall
not degenerate into actual ruin."
Viscout Grey's pronouncement on
the subject of America and the league
of nations forms one topic of serious
conversation among diplomatists and
politicians and in the clubs.
It is recognized," says the Daily
Mail, "as having a very important
bearing upon present relations be
tween the United States and this
country. It is generally agreed that
Viscount Grey's letter, by explaining
the peculiar difficulties of the Ameri
can constitution, has done much to
dispel any misunderstanding existing
in this country as to the reasons for
the league of nations reservations."

Speaker of House of Representa
tives Urges Thrift to Restore
Normal Conditions.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass., Feb. 8. The
United States Is facing the worst fi
nancial crisis in its history, declared
Speaker Frederick H. Gillette of the
national house of representatives this
afternoon in an address here. The
present high cost of living, he said,
is due largely to the greatly inflated
conditions due to the floating debt of
14,000,000,000 in treasury certificates,
and the principal means of bringing
it down is by thrift on the part of the
public, with "the alternative that this
country will face a panic similar to
that of 1S93. It is up to the public,
he said, to practice due care and
eliminate luxuries so that the present
conditions may be bettered.
Like the problem of years ago, when
the government was. forced to fight
trusts, the speaker said that today
congress faces a new question.
question whether the combination of
the employed is not more threaten
ing to our business life than that ol
the employers."
Continuing, he-declared he believed
that labor unions are essential for
the protection of the men, but "when
they go so far as to threaten for their
own advancement to stop the wheels
of the railroads and close the output
of the mines, without which our whole
Industrial organization would col
lapse, they, in their turn, are exercis
ing a power which no government can
safely permit."
