8 i'IIE SUNDAY OREGONIAN. PORTLAND, MARCH 6, 1910. 5 1:5 4 TUFT SLOW TO ACT E Ellis and Hawley Consulted About Successors to Reed and Dunne. SENATOR GROWS ANXIOUS Places Wanted for Sinnott and Hofer, but Editor Is Obnoxious to Representatives An Mncement Due Soon. WTEGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, March 5. Senator Bourne - hfts demanded the scalps of United States Marshal C. J. Reed and Collector of Internal Revenue David M. Dunne. Reed's scalp unquestionably he will se cure; as to Dunne's there is seeroingr some uncertainty, but If Bourne has his way J. Frank Sinnott. of Portland, will become Marshal and E. Hofer will ex change his editorial chair in Salem for that long filled by Dunne in the Collec tor's office In Portland. These two offices ' have been regarded as strictly Senatorial patronage, and it has been assumed that men of Bourne's selection would . be nominated whenever he filed his recommendations, his col league betas -barred from participation because a Democrat. But President Taft today s-jnt for and discussed with Representatives Bills and Hawley qualifications of various candi dates for marshalship and collectorship. from which it may be Inferred that the President Is not as yet prepared to act entirely on Bourne's recommendations. President's Course Vnusual. It is unusual for a President to con sult Congressmen about questions of Sen atorial patronage, and the fact that he has done so In this Instance tends to create uncertainty as to his purpose with regard to two Oregon offices, which Bourne is now trying to fill with his own men. Neither Ellis ror Hawley feels free to discus? what happened at the White House, -beyond admitting they were con sulted (about questions of patronage and the qualification of candidates. It 1s believed that they filed no recom mendations for either place, but availed themselves of the opportunity to discu frankly all candidates whose names were mentioned by the President. If Hawley and Ellis frankly expressed their opinion of Hofer (and it is to be prsaumed they did not waste this golden opportunity), and if President Taft attaches Importance to their opinion. Hofer will not toe forced to Rell his print-shop and move to Port land, for It te no secret that Oregon's Cringressmen regard Salem's editor as being pestiferous and obnoxious, and not the kind of man they want to see re warded by the Republican Administra tion. (tegular Appointments I'rgeu'. Always heretofore, when discussing questions of patronage with the Presi dent. Hawley and Ellis have urged that none but straight Republicans be ap pointed to Federal offices in Oregon, and there Is no reason to believe they de parted from this rule today. Sinnott. although not regular in his Re publicanism, and although identified with the opposition faction, is not regarded as 'o objectionable as Hofer. and It la pre sumed that nothing but his political record was criticised. David M. Dunne has not made any ap peal for continuance in office, though it Is understood h would like to remain. His office. Is not filled for any particular term of years, for collectors of Internal revenue, once commissioned, serve indefi nitely, in the pleasure of the President. Dunne's record in entirely satisfactory to the department and regular Repub licans of Oregon are understood to favor his continuance. Such a course will be entirely satisfactory to Ellis and Hawley. E. B. Colwell Considered. Early It the Taft Administration Dr. Henry W. Coe placed on record a strong recommendation of Elmer B. Colwell, of Portland, for appointment as United States Marshal to' succeed Reed. Since then many other letters of recommenda tion in his behalf have been filed, signed by prominent regular Republicans of Oregon. Colwell's qualifications prob ably will receive consideration by the President before nominations are made. Senator Bourne said today that he had not y.et filed formal Indorsement of any one, though be Is known to be intensely anxious that the President fill both these offices Immediately. Neither Hawley nor Ellis can say who will be appointed, and presumably no choice has yet been made, though the matter will likely come to a head next week".

He was smoking a Turkish cigarette as h commenced an inspection of his new, strange air-craft. Now the g-aeoline engine Is cranked, the magneto responds, the whir of the thin, durable air propeller can be heard be tween the chugs of the unmuffled engine. "With one last look around, the little man climbs into his seat in front of the en gine, gran pa the steering wheel and rocks to and fro in his seat to test the bal ancing planes. Now he pulls the wheel fc.ck and forth to test the altitude and lurning rudders. Two strong mechani :lans are holding the machine down. It lulvers like a thing of animation, held igalnst its will, anxious to leap forward and upward. Machine Leaves Ground. The word is given. The men drop back swiftly to evade the" thin planes. "He's off!" some one shouth. Down the rolled speedway at the rate of 25 miles n hour, running handily on its trio of wheels, the machine goes. Now it Is barely skimming the ground; the wheels are stopping the! rrevolutlons. Attenu ated by distance, the strange moving thing presents the appearance of a gigan tic insect, its long, thin babmoo limbs stretched out. Now It Is a foot oft the ground. Suddenly a slight depression is reached in the ground ahead, the avi ator ducks bis machine downward for on$ last spring and shoots upward" as. if climbing an Incline of blue ether.

Many think they are about to witness a tragic scene. Everyone is holding his breath, far up in the air, clearly visible against the sky of blue the aeroplane main tains Its equilibrium.

Most of the time the crowd lias been too busy holding its breath to cheer, but it is all over and gray-haired men, boys with excited flushed faces, and women rush down the field to where Hamilton has stopped his machine, which is immediately taken ih charge by two of hia men.

The sun shone from early morning until evening:, drying: out the ground and making a solid surface for the starts. Only a.n occasional white. fleecy, innocent-looking cloud appeared in the sky to keep company with gleaming old Mount Hood, 80 miles to the East. Under the charm of these at 10,000 conditions a crowd, estimated persons, watched the flights. Army Maneuvers Postponed. Brigadier-General Marion P. Maus. U. S. A., commanding the Department of ths Columbia, was unable to attend yester day, and consequently the military ma neuvers were not given. The only Army officers to witness the flights yesterday were Colonel R. 3. Bberts, chief surgeon of the medical corps at Vancouver Bar racks, and Captain John Newbury Brad ley, of the Fourteenth Regiment of In fantry. Today, General Maus with his entire staff and officers of the signal corps will attend, though not officially. Hamil ton will attempt to drop a bag of sand within a prescribed circle while several hundred feet in the air. Another man euver will be a wireless telephone conver sation between the aviator while flying and General Maus. This is a feat In which the Army officers are particularly interested. Full half as many remained on the high plateau on the north side of the grounds. From thls point a splendid vista of the events was stolen. This is probably accounted for by the fact that one dollar was charged In admis sion and the same amount for grand stand seats. At a meeting of the com mittee last night, it was decided to cut this down and make the general admission to any seat one dollar. This.

On account of the desire of E. Henry Wemme, a Portland man, to own the first aeroplane flying here, Hamilton was asked to make the. first trial In it.

"This is worth coming a good deal farther than I came to see." said the Mayor, enthusiastically. "I have been deeply interested and greatly pleased, at the successful flights made by Mr. Hamilton. He ha accomplished wonders. li had perfect control of his machine a4 all times, and seemed perfectly at easai himself, notwithstanding his perilous trips over the course.
