if THE SUNDAY OREGONIAN, PORTLAND, SEPTE3IBER 1, 1912. 55 the Republican State Central Com mittee today upheld the action of the majority of the Republican County Central Committee of San Francisco in removing Fred Sanborn as chairman of the body and in removing its former secretary, Charles Forbes. Eleven members of the committee were present and voted the proxies of 12 others. The state organization will no longer recognize Sanborn and Forbes and their followers. Resolutions were passed declaring that the Republican party of .California is governed by the laws of the state, 'and differs in name only from the new National Progressive party and stands for the same policies in Na tional affairs that the said National Progressive party stands for." The resolutions also declared Theo dore Roosevelt to be the choice of the Republicans of the state and concluded with eulogistic reference to Governor Johnson.

Final Appeal Made for Vote of Vermont, for Effect It Will Have Elsewhere. TOUR IN STATE IS ENDED PENROSE CAN TELL MORE BIG STORY REGAINS ROOSEVELT FEARS J 5 .ff.i .-. CTi fx IF r v Chairman Clapp Blamed for Failure to Go More Deeply Into Issue While Investigation Was in Initial Stage. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington. Aug. 31. Unless William R. Hearst comes to the front and volun tarily makes public facts and docu mentary proof bearing on Standard Oil and other corporation contributions to the Republican and Democratic cam paign funds of 1904 and 1908 the gen eral public will get little new light on this subject until the Senate subcom mittee resumes its hearings under the resolution adopted by the Senate the last day of the session. This committee, of which Senator Clapp, of Minnesota, insurgent Repub lican and supporter of Colonel Roose velt, Is chairman, developed some facts prior to the Penrose-Archbold incident, but the brief speech of the Senator from Pennsylvania and the all-too-brief testimony of Mr. Archbold only served to establish the impression that "the half has never been told," and that some interesting information can yet be developed if the committee is dili gent in its inquiry, which has now been specifically directed by the Senate. That investigation will not be resumed until September 30. Clapp Blamed for Incompleteness. It was clearly apparent that the lid was not pried off the Penrose-Archbold affair prior to the adjournment of Congress, and only a slight insight was gained into the true relations that have existed between the Standard Oil Company and the leaders of the two old political parties. Mr. Penrose did not tell all he knew. In fact, he ad mitted as much, and it is readily seen from the testimony of Mr. Archbold that the big end of his story is yet' to be developed. There was much complaint about the manner in which this committee handled the Penrose, archbold affair at the time and the responsibility for failure to go more leeply into the relations of Mr. Arch bold and the Standard Oil Company with the Republican party rests pri marily on the shoulders of Chairman Clapp, a Roosevelt supporter. Even Colonel Roosevelt himself complained of the scant information disclosed by the committee at the time. The campaign this Fall promises to be unusually sensational, but if this Senate committee discharges its duty with entire sincerity and a determina tion to get at the facts and to secure convincing proof, there is little ques tion but its investigation will prove to be the one big sensation of the Fall. In a general way what was said by Senator Penrose and by Mr. Archbold occasioned no surprise among public men in Congress. It was known that the Standard Oil and other corpora tions did contribute alike to the Re publican and the Democratic campaign funds. It was known that Senator Pen rose was on intimate terms with the Standard Oil and Pennsylvania rail road officials and through their aid got Into the Senate and stayed there. Documentary Proof Demanded. Senator Penrose and Mr. Archbold both fell short when Jhey neglected to produce documentary evidence to sustain their charges and assertions. It will take documentary proof to make their declarations entirely con rincing. Whether or not the Clapp committee, when it meets again, will conduct a thorough inquiry along the lines laid down by the Senate resolution remains to be seen. Such an inquiry ought to be made if all the members of the com mittee attend, for there will be Demo crats and Republicans alike and the membership of the committee is such as to insure an inquiry into not only the Roosevelt but the Taft, Parker and Bryan campaign fund contribu tions as well. If each Senator on the committee does his full duty, much evidence of a convincing nature should be disclosed, unless the corporations and public officials to be investigated take advantage of their month's notice and succeed in 'destroying all evidence a the way of letters, receipts, checks and other evidence that would need no corroboration. The startling incident in connection with the widened scope of investiga tion which the committee is to make was the opposition of Senator Hey burn and of Senator Smoot. who did not want the investigation to extend to the relations that existed between the Standard Oil Company and indi vidual members of the Senate. Sena tor Penrose was willing enough that Ms own case should be investigated, and he thought other Senators should be placed on an equal footing. So did Senator La Follette. When Senators Penrose and La Follette lined up to gether it was time for the rest of the Senate to fall in line. Further Suapleian Aroused. The factithat such men as Heyburn and Smoot objected to broadening the Investigation served to arouse further suspicion that there has been improper relations between the Standard Oil and Senators not openly accused, and the fact that they objected made It mor ally binding on the Senate to direct the committee to make its investiga tion as wide as possible. Enough has be?n told on this sub ject to arouse public suspicion thor oughly; to confirm a general belief that the Standard Oil and other big corporations did contribute to the big campaign funds. The public will not be satisfied now until it knows to what extent these various corporations con tributed, to whom they handed money, and what sort of understanding went with the contributions. The' whole story will never be told, of course. There will be much conflict of testi mony and a great deal that will be testified by various witnesses will not be substantiated by documentary proof. But for all that, there is a big story to be uncovered' and the public will in sist that the Clapp committee maku Its inquiry as thorough as possible, regardless of who is involved and who Is hurt. Not only is the Senate on trial, but big men in public life other than mem bers of the Senate are involved. Cor ruption has long been suspected. The time i -t hand when the public will demand to know all about this corrup tion. The Clapp committee is the body chosen to develop the facts.

Law Provides Fine of $5000 for Cor poration Itself and Punishes Directors Who Consent. WASHINGTON, Aug. 31. Reports that one of the political parties was soliciting contributions from National banks for the pending political cam paign stirred Treasury Department of ficials today. Any National bank mak ing such contributions, declared Thom as P. Kane, Acting Controller of the Currency, will be subject to a fine and its responsible officers and directors are liable to fine and imprisonment for violating the law. The Washington Post today pub lished a report that E. Tt. Hooker, Na tional treasurer of the Roosevelt Pro gressive party, in a. personal letter to the president of the National bank in Washington with a capital and surplus of nearly $1,000,000, had soliciated a contribution of $250. The penalty for violation of the law is a fine not exceeding $5000 against the corporation, as well an a fine rang ing from $250 to $1000 against every officer .or director consenting to the contribution, or their Imprisonment for not more than one year or both. NEW YORK, Aug. 31. E. H. Hooker, National Treasurer - of the Roosevelt Progressive party said today that he had terhats sent letters to 1000 bank ers soliciting aid for the Progressive cause. "But I addressed them as individuals. he explained. "In no case has a letter been sent to a corporation or to any one as representing a corporation. If the address heDDened to be in care oi a bank, the letters may have i been sent so marked: but it is ridiculous to say that we have solicited contributions from any bank or corporation as such."

Colonel Hearkens to Report That Employer "is Trjins, to Prevent Men From Voting for Ticket and Takes It for Text. BRATTLE BORO, Vt., Aug. 31. The campaign of ex-President Roosevelt in Vermont came to an end here tonight. After three da;-3 of hard fighting, the Colonel eald he felt well repaid for his trip. "It was quite extraordinary," he said. "It looks pretty good up here in Ver mont." Colonel Roosevelt was well satisfied, he said, with the outlook in the state for the November election, but showed concern over the prospects for the Roosevelt Progressive state ticket in the election next Tuesday. "I want to send a last message to the people of Vermont," he said here to night in the final speech of his tour. "I have heard all through Vermont from men who have said they would vote for me In November and that I would carry the state, but that in the state election next Tuesday they would not leave the Republican or the Dem ocratic party to vote for the Progres sive ticket. Laat Plea for Votea Made. "Those of you who take this view are playing into the hands of the Arch- bolds and Penroses. uutsiae tne state the result of this election is being awaited with eager interest. . Those of you who wish to help me can best do so by voting for the Progressive state ticket." Colonel Roosevelt spoke first today at Barre, then went to Randolph and Bellows Falls, and wound up his tour here tonight. At several towns along the way crowds were out to meet him, and he made brief speeches. The Colonel paid his respects to Max well Evarts, of New York, who has a country home and a machine shop at Windsor, in his speech there. He said he had been told that Evarts was try ing to prevent his employes from vot ing the Roosevelt Progressive ticket. Right to Vote Defended. "I want to touch right here," he said, "upon the iniquity of any man trying to bully the men In his shop to yote the way they don't want to. I'd like to put it straight that we all have the right to vote as we wish." As he started from St. Johnsbury this morning Colonel Roosevelt remarked: "If the crowds turn out on my West ern trip as they have done in Vermont, I don't know that I shall live through it. I don't need to keep my hat in the ring now," he added. "There are too many bandannas." Colonel Roosevelt left his automobile at Randolph, after traveling 400 miles by motor car in the last three -days and took a train for Bellows Falls. Just as the Colonel was leaving Barre a man with a megaphone mounted the plat form and shouted to the crowd: "After Mr. Roosevelt has gone, stay and listen to a few questions which he has not answered in Vermont and will not answer in any state in the Union." Roosevelt heard the announcement, turned back and mounted the platform. "You may notice," he called out, "that the valiant preacher who has just spoken did not say a word until I was leaving. He was afraid to say any thing while I was here." Somebody Always Making; Charges. At Barre the Colonel made a special appeal for support for his ticket. - "The state election next Tuesday will be watched eagerly outside of Vermont and Judged from the National stand point," said Colonel Roosevelt. "Every political boss of the type of Mr. Pen rose, every head of a big corporation of the type of Mr. Archbold will be eagerly hoping for the defeat of the Progressive ticket in Vermont- They don't care a rap which of the old par triumph. If only the Progressives are beaten." Speaking of his attitude on Senator Penrose and John D. Archbold. Colonel Roosevelt said: "These men think that there must be something crooked about me. They can't understand that there isn't and they keep hoping to get some thing which will discredit me. Some body is always making charges against me and I always deny them and pro duce a letter to prove that they are false." Winston Churchill May Run. After his speech here the Colonel left for Oyster Bay. He expects to reach his home in the morning to stay over night. He leaves on his Western tour Monday. Winston Churchill, the New Hamp shire novelist, met Colonel Roosevelt at Randolph and completed the day's trip with him. Churchill said that a complete Progressive ticket would be put in the field in New Hampshire. Churchill, who several years ago made an unsuccessful campaign for the Republican nomination for Governor, was asked whether he expected to be the Roosevelt Progressive candidate. He replied that he thought it might turn out that way. QUESTION TOO "MILITARY" Democratic Treasurer Draws on Jesse James' Mother for Simile. SEAGIRT. N. J.. Aug. SI.

United States Senator from New Mexico, today began here an investiga tion of the relation of American cap ital to Mexican uprisings on behalf of the sub-committee of the Senatorial committee on foreign affairs, of which he and William Alden Smith, Senator from Michigan, are executive members.

Also the trouble in Cuba comes under our investigation. "There was a certain clement of truth in the assertion from Mexico City that I had attempted to see Pascual Orozco, the leader of the present revo lution, but it was not true that I did see him or communicate with him or that I had anything to do, intentional or otherwise, with the failure of the recent peace negotiations.
