HAREY SENATORIAL TOGA ' IRKS CHAMBERLAIN Ease -Loving Senator Has Enough. PEOPLE ARE TOO EXACTING Vice-Presidential Boom, How ever, Is Idle Talk. STRONGER MAN IS WANTED Oregon Member In Mood Not to itun Again for Present Seat, Which He Finds Involves Much Be sides Mere Honor. BT HARRY J. BROWN. OREUONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington. July 30. In view of the fact that Senator Chamberlain thinks of re tiring voluntarily from the Senate at th close of his present term or so In forms some of his Senatorial col leagues, talk of nominating him for th Vice-Presidency next year would seem to be mere Idle gossip. It Is no more likely that the Democratic con vention would pick an Oregon man for the Vice-Presidential nomination than that the Republican convention would select Senator Bourne for second place on tha Republican ticket, and yet Bourn haa been mentioned, and Is un derstood to have aspirations. Job Grows Tiresome. Th fact about Senator Chamberlain Is that he Is getting tired of his Job In Washington. He does not say so publicly, and has not authorized the publication of any such statement. But he has talked more or less with friends of late, and frequently he has conveyed the unmistakable Impression that on lerm In th Senate will aatlsfy him. Senator Chamberlain Is only one of many men who have attained a seat In th Senate only to becom discour aged with, the Job after a very brief service. Being a Senator Is not all honor. There Is a great deal of work attached to It. and there Is so much work, as to make the position unattractive to a man who has come to love bis ease. There are men In tha Senate whs do not let public duties Interfere with their ease, but they do not represent bustling Western states. Western Constituent Exacting. The West demands hard work from Its Representatives In Congress. It In sists upon recelv ,g constant attention, and the citizens of the West have so many more personal requests to make than do th average citizens of the older states or the East. That Is be cause th West Is growing and devel oping, and needs Congressional aid. Th East Is pretty well developed; land matters have ceased to be; there are no Indian problems; no forestry troubles: no irrigation projects to be looked after; no new river and harbor projects needing adoption, and com pared to the Western Senator, his col league In the East has a comparatively easy time of It- According to bis talks with friends. Senator Chamberlain does not feel equal to the strain Imposed upon him. He does not feel that he can devote all th time and energy necessary to satisfy bis constituency and his state, and he has expressed a willingness to retire and permit some younger and more sturdy, man to don the toga. Opinion May Change. Of course It Is three years until Sen ator Chamberlain comes up for renom Inatlon. He may. In that time, change his opinion, as have others who. In the early part of their careers, have talked as he Is talking now. Being a Senator grows on a man. "There Is a fascina tion about It that one cannot resist after he has been here on term." as on Senator expressed It. and it may be that befor the end of Senator Chamberlain's term, he may succumb to this fascination, and declare him- (Concluded on Psge 3.) MURPHY DRAWS SOME TAFT FAITHFUL TO DYING MAN'S WISH APPOIXTMEXT FULFILLS RE QUEST OF REPRESENTATIVE. Mitchell of Kansas Gave Life to Vote for Reciprocity; Friend Now Named Postmaster. WASHINGTON. July 2J. In sending to the Senate the nomination of Charles a Finch as postmaster at Lawrence. Kn, President Taft today complied with the dying request of the late A. C. Mitchell, Representative of the second Kansas district, and proved that poli tics Is not always so cold-blooded as painted. Mr. Mitchell promised the President to vote for reciprocity early In the present session. Long before the time for a vote came, however, he was taken seriously 111. He returned to Kansas and physicians told blm he was a very sick man. He said that no matter how sick he might be. he would keep his promise to President Taft, go to Wash ington, and vote for reciprocity. In spite of the physicians he made the trip and cast his vote for the bill. Soon after his return to Kansas he died. A day or two before the end Mrs. Mitchell wrote to President Taft for her husband, asking that Mr. Finch be made Postmaster at Lawrence. Mrs. Mitchell added that Senator Bristow was opposed to Finch and Senator Cur tis might prove favorable. The day the letter reached the White House, Mr. Mitchell died. The President called in the two Kansas Senators, told the story and asked them if they would oppose Finch. They assured him they would gladly help to grant the request. UPPER BERTHS NOT TAKEN Pullman Company Considers Plan to Reduce Rates Still More. CHICAGO. July 22. (Special.) There have been so many empty upper berths In Pullman sleeping cars, ever since the law went Into effect reduc ing the rate on them, that the proposal Is now under consideration to reduce them still further on the combination plan. .This plan, which has been sub mitted for the approval of the Pullman Company, will give a traveler both the upper and lower berths for 50 cents added to the price of the lower alone.

MORE TIMELY LESSONS VETO STRUGGLE TAKES NEW FORM Tory Leaders Fear Party Outbreak. SUBMISSION IS COUNSELED Lloyd-George's Veiled Threat to Germany Is Bombshell. BALFOUR IS IN DISFAVOR Extremists May Be Pressing Issue in Hope of Ending Leadership. Insurance Bill Makes Minis terial Life Borden. BY T. P. O'CONNOR. f'opy-rlpht. inn. by the Tribune Company. LONDON', July 22. (Special.) All is over except the shouting in the veto contest. Premier Asqulth's letter gives A. J. Balfour and Lord Lansdowne the excuse they sought for a complete sur render. The backwoodsmen still sputter of revolt, and the Morning Post cries for war, but Lord Lansdowne and every radical peer and every Unionist Jour nal of Importance, even those which sat on the fence up to today, all counsel submission on the remaining questions, whether the submission shall come by Tuesday or a week later. German Situation Perilous. A second bombshell winds up the week. Lloyd-George's speech Is a veiled menace to Germany regarding Moroc co. It Is more remarkable coming from a sworn advocate of peace and a fierce enemy of war and adds oil to the al ready dangerous flame of feeling aroused In all classes of England by the seizure of Agadir and the reported demands of Germany on the Congo, I believe everything will be composed in the end, but the situation Is serious. The veto struggle, which has been going on for months, assumes a new shape. It no longer Is a contest be tween the Liberal and Tory leaders, but between the Tory leaders and their own wilder followers. Lansdowne Forced to Choose. Now one of two things must happen. After the veto bill, with all the amend ments made by the Lords rejected, is sent back to the upper chamber from the Commons, either the Lords will submit without a division or they will challenge a division. Then Lansdowne will have to make a painful choice be tween voting in favor of the bill and against his own followers or of allow ing the bill to be rejected and thus compelling the creation of the peers. My Impression Is not in the least weakened that Lansdowne, If It comes to that point, will support the veto bill rather than allow the creation of the peers. Every sane Tory realizes that the creation of the new peers means Liberal omnipotence during three eventual years and the death of the old House of Lords and the final extirpation of all prestige of titles in England. Balfour has given Indication that he will not countenance resistance to the bitter, end and announces that he is going soon to Gastein for the cure. Tide Rising Against Balfour. On the whole, the crisis of the present stage, affects the prospects of the Tory leaders much more nearly than the Liberals. Discontent against Balfour is rising more highly every day and possibly some of the Tory ex tremists are pushing things in the hope of ending Balfour's long leadership and of replacing him by Austen Chamber lain or some other more convinced pro tectionist. The crisis is over and noth ing special will happen, not even the resignation of Balfour. The other topic of the week was the terrific struggle of Chancellor Lloyd George to get his Insurance bill carried this session. His difficulties show no Concluded" on Page 2- J FROM VARIOUS PASSING CITY BUREAU WILL SUPPLY LABORERS VANCOUVER- POLICE HEAD XEW DEPARTMENT. American Citizens Favored in Work on Municipal Contracts. Laborers Wanted. VANCOUVER. Wash., July 22. (Spe cial.) A municipal free employment bureau, of which the Chief of Police Is the active head, has been established by the City Council and Mayor of Van couver. There is much city work being done by contract, and there is a clause In the contracts requiring the contractors to employ none but American citizens on the work. The contractors have had a hard time to get enough men to do the work, so the Council has come to their rescue. When a man wants a Job, he files his application with the Chief of Police, who has a list of the contractors, to whom he sends the men seeking work. On the front of the City Hall a black board has been placed and on this to day Is the sign, "Wanted, 30 men to work In the city at 25 cents an hour. Inquire within." A strike of 40 men, working for the Washington-Oregon Corporation, has been settled by the men going back to work for J2 a day for eight hours work. Rector & Daly, contractors, discharged 20 Italians and Greeks yesterday and are putting in their places American citizens. ' PIONEERS DEMAND REFORM Though Courthouse Is Costly, Poor house Is Dilapidated. ABERDEEN, Wash.. July 22. (Spe cial.) Though the County Commis sioners of Chehalis County have spent more than a quarter million dollars on' the County Courthouse, $1600 for bronze lamps at the entrances of the building and will spend $10,000 more in mural painting for its walls, no money is left to kalsomlne the walls of the County poorhouse, and for this reason the pioneers of Chehalis County have en tered a demand ,that conditions be changed. Many of the pioneers, who gathered at Montesano yesterday attending the picnic of the Aberdeen-pioneers' Asso ciation, declare they are entitled to some comfort in their misfortune. Investigation yesterday proved that the walls of the building were not even papered, that, the roof leaks and that the plaster is coming off in places. The new County Courthouse is con sidered one of the finest in the state. All the electric clocks on the building have been adjusted and the white mar ble stairs and baseboards are in place and nearly all the rooms frescoed. The entrance to the building is flanked by two large bronze standards. There are two Tennessee granite columns flank ing the main entrance. TROOPS SAVE ALASKA TOWN Infantrymen Fight Forest Fire Near Haines Two Days. JUNEAU, Alaska. July 22. Fire broke out Wednesday morning in the heavy spruce and hemlock forest near Haines, 35 miles northwest of Juneau, and was not subdued until today. Twenty acres of forest were destroyed, also 150,000 feet of logs. 50,000 feet of sawed timber and the Adams sawmill. At one time the fire approached within naif a mile of Haines. The en tire garrison of Fort William H. Sew ard, under command of Colonel Corne lius Gardener, Sixteenth Infantry, fought for two days. In co-operation with the citizens of Haines, against the flames. Rain which fell last night gave material assistance in conquering the fire. Commissioner of the General Land Office Dennett authorized an expendi ture of $500 in stamping out the fire. W. J. Lewis, of the General Land Of fice, Is directing the fight against the fire, which is not in the National For est. TEXAS SEEMS TO BE DRY Incomplete Vote Indicates Victory for Prohibition. DALLAS, Tex., July 22. With what is estimated to be three-fourths of the vote cast In today's liquor election counted, the Prohibitionists are leading by the narrow margin of 3K1, according to the returns of the News. Up to mid night 339,775 votes had been accounted for. Returns from all the larger towns are In, and as the rural districts are against the saloons it seems a safe prediction at this time that the state has gone "dry." EVENTS. J NS1 DOUBTS WILDE DID WRONG Case Again Left to Attorney-General. WEBB'S OPINION SUBMITTED Law Officer Says No Crime Has Been Committed. . FACTS TO BE REVIEWED Cameron Must Overcome Views Al ready Expressed Governor of California Calls Oregon Pros ecutor "Ignoramus." SAN FRANCISCO, July 22. (Special.) Governor Johnson today, after a further hearing of the application for the extra dition of Louis J. Wilde, presented to District Attorney Cameron an opinion written by Attorney-General Webb, of California, holding that no crime had been committed, but said that he would delay his final decision to give Cameron an opportunity to confer with Webb. Should the California Attorney-General change his mind, said Governor Johnson, he would honor the requisi tion, but he said he wanted it to be made plain that he would not sign the papers if Webb continued to hold that there has been no crime, as he has held before. Governor Is Sarcastic. Johnson was sarcastic in his treat ment of Cameron at the hearing today. Because Johnson had refused to sign the requisition and had continued the case from day to day, Cameron declared that it was unusual for the Governor of a state to refuse to honor the requisition of the Governor of a sister state. At the close of the hearing today Johnson made a caustic verbal assault on Cam eron. Turning toward the Oregon Dis trict Attorney, who was seated Just on the other side of the table, Johnson said: "You have said there is something unusual In this proceeding because I refused to grant these extradition papers. There is nothing unusual about it. It Is a proceeding always held when letters of extradition are protested. If you have said it was unusual you dis play a profound ignorance of the law. Do you know that just such proceedings were recently taken by the Governor of Oregon and since the first of the year? Case Left to Webb. "You have appeared here three times and your statements of facts have been the same. Now please understand me, once for all. You confer with the Attorney-General of California. Present him with all your facts and if he de cides that a crime has been committed by Wilde in the State of Oregon on your statements of facts, I will ex tradite this man. If thex Attorney General says there has been no crime committed I will not extradite him. Now, Is that plain?" The hearing ended abruptly. Governor Johnson had previously in dicated that he did not intend to honor the extradition request of Oregon's Governor for one of his appointees. He said that he had presented all the facts to Attorney-General Webb and that the Attorney-General had decided that tne crime of embezzlement for which Wilde was Indicted had never been committed. The ruling was made on a technicality. There is no dispute over the fact that 1700 stockholders of the Oregon Savings & Trust Company, which failed, had suffered by Wilde's alleged em bezzlement of $00,000. The dispute is over the point whether it was em bezzlement, or an offense with another name. First Opinion Rejected. At the first hearing, when District Attorney Cameron presented his facts, (Concluded on Page 5.) .
