New Mexico Senator Can
Have Place if He Wants It.
EAST AND WEST TO CLASH
Propaganda Being Scattered by
Wealthy Tourists Who Object

TH OltEGONJAN NEWS BUREAU,
Washington. jan. 3. Several western
senators appeared certain today of
the appointment of Albert Bacon Fall,
enator from New Mexico, as secre
tary of the Interior, senator iinox
departments cited for particular at
tention in this regrard are the follow
ing;: Workmen's compensation commis
sion, now composed of three members.
I Members-elect are discussing the ellm
1 Ination of two commissioners, placing
' the department under one commission
I head, uniting- with it the insurance
manager.
Coasolldatlon Also Vrsed.
Public utilities commission, com
posed of three members. It Is pro-
posed to eliminate two. leaving but

department.

minating the department in its en
tirety. Highway Pruning down the de
partment. Educational Investigating the al
leged duplication of work.
Because of the high cost of all ma
terials it is said in legislative circles
that budgets calling for state funds
with which to erect new buildings or
to make extensive improvements will
not meet with general encouragement;
that appropriations made will merely
i care fdr the biennial needs of the in
stitutions and only such improve
ments as are absolutely necessary.
Primary Klgat Expected.
There will be an effort to reinstate

of Pennsylvania being eliminated the direct primary law which was re-
from consideration as secretary or
state, they said, had cleared the way
for President-elect Harding to put the
New Mexico, senator in the cabinet,
a desire known to be uppermost in
the new president's mind.
Before leaving here two weeks ago
for the southwest, at which time he
stopped over for a day at Marion.
O.. Senator Fall said he was seeking
no cabinet position, aa his intention
was to retire from public life at the
close of his present term in the
senate.
From some source, however, west
ern senators have received intima
tions that the interior portfol'o was
urged upon the New Mexico senator
during the visit and, aa one senator
cut it. Senator Fall "has the refusil
of the place." The selection. It was
learned today, would not be received
unkindly by most of Senator Fall's
western colleagues, because, they as
sert, he would be a good man for the
west and could be depended upon to
have a strong policy.
Fall Is Close Friend.
Throughout Harding's term in the
senate Senator Fall probably has
been his closest friend and compan
ion, and if the latter will accept the
interior post it is hardly believed
that any other competitor would
have a chance. The filling of this
post is likely to develop a contest
between the west and the east before
the president-elect finally acts. One
of the most effective propaganda or
ganisations ever brought together
has been framed up with headquar
ters in Washington, . with limitless
finances and an able staff of the best
writers in the country, to carry on
fight against the efforts to take wa
ter out of Yellowstone national park
to irrigate several hundred thousand
acres of arid lands in Idaho and Mon
tana. So skillfully has this proDa
ganda been handled that the pro
moters have been able to sell much
of It to newspspers and magaxinds
Instead of giving it to them wUhout
cost.
Much of the fight centers around a
bill introduced in the senate by Sen
ator Nugent of Idaho and in the house
by Representative Smith of the same
state. The measure would authorize
the construction of a reservoir on
Fall river, 20 miles off the road
which leads into the park from the
Idaho aide. By the construction of
this reservoir an adequate water sup
ply would be provided for all of the
large areas of reclaimed lands in the
upper Snake River valley, where
there has been some shortage the last
two years, and enough besides for one
or two other large projects.
Protests Flood House.
When the bill was about to come
up in the house last session, where its
passage seemed assured, large dele
gations from New York and numerous
mall and telegraph protests came
pouring In upon congress picturing
the bill as a dark conspiracy to rob
the wealthy tourist of some of the
finest sightseeing summer play
grounds in the whole country solely
in the Interest of those sordid per
sons, the farmers, who wished to use
the water for growing such non-essentials
as sugar beets, alfalfa and
potatoes and their by-products, but
ter and beef, it is hinted that soon
this propaganda machinery all will be
thrown into the contest of the east
against the west for the selection of
a secretary of the interior who gives
the assurance of subordinating irri
gation to scenery.
Attorney-General Palmer has de
clined to give the committee on ways
and means an opinion as to the con
titutionality of the McFadden bill for
the passage of which ths we6t has
been clamoring for soms time. This
bill provides that a bonus uf S10 an
ounce to be paid for all gold used for
manufacturing purposes, the money
so derived to go to the miners to
stimulate gold production, which has
been falling off sines the war began.
It is understood that the bill will
not pass because many members of
house and senate doubt its constitu
tionality. Furthermore, the treasury
department has disapproved It. It is
said that effect would be to de
prive the government of the gold
needed to provide the basis of its
currency.
pealed almost in toto two years ago.
A nard right is expected over this
measure. The anti-alien question also
will get some attention. Western
Idaho is already agitated over the
purchase of lands by Japanese.
Drastic changes in the present tax
laws of the state also will be consid
ered and there will be many educa
tional bills, measures of interest to
farmers, shippers, real estate men and
others. '
ARBITRARY ACTS CHARGED
situation in Textile Industry From
Labor Point of View Is Made
Clear to Lawmakers.
FIGHT FOR J3INGER BEGUN
: Ordinance Barring Sale in Seattle
Held Unconstitutional.
SEATTLE, Wash.. Jan. 3. Constitu
tlonality of the ordinance recently
passed by ths city council, proniblting
sale of Jamaica ginger as a beverage
was attacked in a complaint filed in
the federal court today by John F.
Dore, attorney-at-law. representing
J. H. Woods, doing business under the
name of the Northern Drug company.
The complaint asks for an injunction
against enforcement of the ordinance
pending a hearing of the case on its
merits.
Defendants named in the complaint
are the city of Seattle; W. H. Searing,
chief of police; J. J. Haag, head ot
the police dry squad, and George F.
Meagher, city attorney. The comp.alnt
alleges that sale of Jamaica ginger
in 14 and .-ounce vials is authorised
by provisions of the national pro
hibition act and that such sale Is ap
proved by the commissioner of inter
nal revenue, the secretary of the
treasury and the national prohibition
commissioner.
WASHINGTON', Jan. 3 The situa
tion in the textile industry from the
labor point of view was brought to
the attention of members of con
gress today by representatives of the
American Federation of Labor and
the United Textile Workers. Both
announced their intention "to pursue
a campaign for congressional investi
gation" of the reduction of wages
and closing of plants, due, they de
clared, "to the arbitrary and con
certed design of employers."
The conferences followed discussion
of the situation by Samuel Gompers
and Frank Morrison, president and
secretary of the American Federation
of Labor, and President Goiden
and representatives of the textile
workers.
BANKCHANGES ANNOUNCED
New Concern to Open at Harrls-
burg, Old One Retiring.
ALBANY, Or., Jan. 3. (Special.)
Extensive changes in the banking
business at Harrisburg will take place
within a few days. A new bank will
be instituted and one of the two old
banks will close. The new institution
is the Harrisburg National, and the
one to retire Is the Farmers' & Mer
chants' bank. The First National bank
will occupy the quarters heretofore
used by the Farmers' & Merchants'
bank.
For many years Harrisburg had
only one bank, the First National. A
few years ago the Farmers' & Mer
chants' bank was established and a
new building erected to house it.
Later, through the sale of stock, the
control of this new bank passed into
the hands of owners of the First Na
tion and for some time the two banks
have been under the same manage
ment. Last fall a number 6f Harris
burg men organized the Harrisburg
National bank and the charter was
obtained recently.
TIMBER WORKERS TO FIGHT
Wage Reduction Announced Is De
clared Arbitrary.
SPOKANE, Wash., Jan. 3. (Spe
cial.) That the mill workers of the
Inland Empire had absolutely no
voice in the 20 per cent wage reduc
tion in mills as announced by the
Loyal Legion of Loggers and Lumber
men, scheduled to become effective
today, and that this reduction sounds
the death knell of that organization
were declarations of J. E. Dyke, rep
resentative of the International Union
of Timber Workers, who announced
here today that the mill workers will
not stand for such a wage cut.
The international union will begin
a strenuous campaign to form a solid
unit of mill workers in the Inland
Empire at an early date and demand
at least a minimum of $4.40 a day,
last year's scale, Mr. Dyke said.
"There was absolutely no good rea
collector of customs to -postmaster of
Lebanon.
Legal Talent Enters Field.
J. A. Mears, Portland. Is a candi
date for solicitor of the department
of labor, and Ralph L. Duncan, Port
land, would like to be deputy United
States marshal. Judge John P. Kav
anaugh, Portland, is mentioned for a
place on the district court of appeals
at San Francisco, where two vacan
cies are expected to occur in the nex
year or two. Harold V. Newlin.
Portland, would be satisfied with a
legal position in the United States
reclamation service.
Most of the republican indorse
ments coming to Washington from
Portland relative to shipping board
appointments are asking that Joseph
N. Teal be confirmed as a member
of the board, the place he now holds.
Federal positions in the local land
offices of Oregon are attracting
many applicants. William A. Wilkin
son and Frank G. Dick, both of The
Dalles; B. F. Johnson, Prinevilie, 'and
Thomas C. Queen, editor of the Dufur
Dispatch, are candidates for regis
trar of The Dalles land office. E. J.
Wilson, Prinevilie, is a candidate for
receiver of The Dalles land office.

John J. Donegan, Burns, is making
a good race for receiver of the Burns
land office, with A. W. Gowan of the
same city in hot pursuit. Dr. F. W.
Haynes, a dentist of Roseburg. is a
candidate for receiver of the, Rose-
burg land office, and F. P. Light of I
Lakeview for receiver of the Lake-1
view office. Elbert B. Casteei of
Pilot Rock is out for receiver of the

ments are William H. Squiers. A. A.
Bailey, George M. Robinson and
Walter G. Lynn, all of Portland.
Candidates Seek Postofflces.
Everett L. Gordon has let it be
known that he is a candidate for
postmaster of Portland. J. B. Cronin,
though appointed postmaster of
Pendleton by President Wilson and
still unconfirmed, seems to stand a
chance of receiving reappointment
from a republican president. It ap
pears that Mr. Cronin won his ap
pointment on merit alone after serv
ing many rears in the Pendleton of
fice. Furthermore, he Is a republican,
it is said.
Hugh D. Mars, editor of the Jeffer
son Review, who was considering be

ASSAILS
Acquisition of Canal Zone At
tacked and Defended.
COLOMBIA HELD ROBBED
Payment by United States of Huge
Indemnity Urged as Only Just
and Honorable 'Atonement.'
WASHINGTON, Jan 3. President
Roosevelt's action in connection with
the acquisition of the Penama canal
zone was attacked and defended to
day in the senate.
Urging ratification of the Colom
bian treaty involving payment of a
$25,000,000 indemnity to Colombia for
the partition of Panama, Senator
Thomas, democrat, Colorado, charged
that President Roosevelt "acquired
the right-of-way for the canal from
a band of filibustered by bartering
for it the honor of the nation."
The former president was defended
by Senator Kellogg, republican, Min
nesota, who declared he could "not sit
i:i silence and listen to reflections on
the character and statesmanship of
Theodore Roosevelt."
Panama Canal an Open Book.
The Panama canal, its history, con
struction and success is an open book
said Senator Kellogg. "It has been
discussed, investigated and now sup
ported, I am convinced, by the
American people and the civilized
world.
"Not only that, but John Hay,
great American and a great secretary
of state, helped write that history. So
did Elihu Root, another, and so did
Philander Knox. Theodore Roosevelt
said once, 'It is true, I took Panama
Did he say he took it unjustly or In
contravention to international law?
"Does the senator think our treaties
with Colombia guaranteed her against
loss of Panama by insurrection? That
belief is not borne out by the judg
ment of authority of the facts. Does
ho think revolutions in Panama were
exceDtional things? There were 50

the wages to $3.60 for the eight-hour Pnreys, treasurer of Union county,
day," declared the international offi- seeks the postmastership of La
cer I Grande.
"We have figures to show that the
owners can well afford to pay the
1920 scale. The mill workers, under
the Loyal Legion plan, were supposed
to have a 50-50 say as to wages and
labor conditions under which they
work, but I know thousands of them
who will not know of the cut until
they get their first check."
Stock Is Offered Employes.
NEW YORK, Jan. 3. The United
States Steel corporation today an
nounced the price at which its em
ployes may purchase stock from It
at $81 a share, as against $106 last
year, when between 50,000 and 60,000
shares were available. The amount
which may be bought this year was
not announced. Steel opened on the
stock exchange this morning at SI 1-8.
CANNERY PAYS $200,000
Growers and Workers as Well as
Concern Have Good .Season.
LEBANON, Or., Jan. 3. (Special.)
The Lebanon cannery shipped the
last of Its 1920 output and has taken
an Inventory of the canned goods on
hand, which shows that the plant
did a flno business during the last
year. The cannery handled nearly
2,000,000 pounds of berries, fruits and
vegetables, for which It paid the
growers around $160,000. and the pay
roll in the plant was about $50,000.
This sum does not Include the amounts
paid for sugar and cans. Loganber
ries were the largest single Item of
fruits handled, of which 500,000
pounds were canned which cost the
canner $SO,000. The plant canned
716,198 cans of fruit and vegetables,
many of which were gallon cans.
The capacity of the plant was dou
bled last year, and it is not yet large
enough to take care of the growing
demand. The buildings will have an
addition 290x120 feet added before
June of this year.

Bond's aunt, will contest the will.
Landing of Marines Justified
"Did our treaties authorize the
landing of American marines to pre
vent Colombian troops from suppres
sing revolution?" asked Senator Pom
erene. democrat. Ohio.
"Yes," Senator Kellogg replied.
"Specifically, we had treaty power to
protect communications across the
isthmus and the Panama railroad. But
I am not here to discuss the treaties
of the canal. I want to register only
my opinion that the acquirement of
the canal rights was one o;' the great
acts of a great president in a great
era of American history.
Senator Thomas charged that the
government of the United States
shared responsibility to a greater or
less degree for the revolution which
set ud a new state on the isthmus
when Colombia refused to ratify i
treaty with the United States govern
ing the canal.
Vaudeville Revolt Occurs.
"Preparations were made under
President Roosevelt's very nose for
a vaudeville isthmian insurrection.'
the senator added, "to which he must
have shut his eyes, for otherwise he
would have seen them, and filled his
ears with cotton, for otherwise ' he
would have heard them.'
Facts as to the participation of the
government in the successful insur
rection. Senator Thomas charged, had
been suppressed by President Roose
velt, and copies of official dispatches
bearing upon it demanded by senate
resolutions had been withheld
mutilated.
"The man who suppresses or
destroys testimony." he said of this,
"stands se'f-convlcted. Mr. Roosevelt
acauired the right of way for the
canal from a band of filibusterers by
bartering for it the honor of the
nation. .
"National Atonement" Demanded.
"Between justice and our offense
against Colombia, there can be re
conciliation only through national
atonement. until these things are
done, our championship of small na
tions and weak peoples is as the
sound of tinkling cymbals. When

RESULTS EXPECTED IN IDAHO
Xew Legislative Body Is Over
whelmingly Republican.
BOISE. Idaho. Jan. S. (Special.)
The 16th Idaho legislature, composed
f 90 republicans and 8 democrats. In
augurated today, promises Interesting
developments. While overwhelmingly
rspubllcan and there is danger from
this fact of it becoming turbulent
because of factionalism, members
appear determined to enact as few
new laws as possible and to give spe
cial attention to existing laws with a
view to strengthening them through
amendment. Wherever it is possible
to eliminate duplication of work, the
knife will be used. It seems to be gen
raily understood.
Discussion with members-elect of
the two houses indicates that there is
a strong undercurrent for retrench
ment In appropriations and a determi
nation closely to scrutinize all esti
mates submitted. In addition there
appears to be much duplication of
work in a number of the departments
and this, it Is expected, will be cut
down either through consolidation or
direct elimination. A number of the
