CHARGES ON WEST
Attorney-Genera! Says Gover
nor's Action May Cost
Oregon $50,000.
EXECUTIVE MAKES REPLY
Correspondence and Congressional
Bill Copies Held Asking for Very
Thing Which Official Says
GoTernor Flailed to Do.
I
SALEM. Or.. Sot. . (Special.)
The situation at the State Capitol be
came acute today when Attorney-General
Crawford hurled the charge in a
statement to the State Land Board that
Governor West had been responsible
for costing the state 150.000 in not
following the Attorney-General's advice
and the Governor came back repudiat
ing the statement of Crawford.
In hla statement to the Board the At-torned-General
said that the Governor
had instructed his land agent to make
indemnity selections of school land
around lakes In Lake County In con
nection with a lease to a firm to de
velop mineral salts In the lakes and
that, as a result there was used 150.000
worth of school lands to secure the se
lections. He stated he had advised the Gover
nor and the Board to ask Congress
through the Oregon delegation to make
a donation of these lands and if such
were done it would cost the state
nothing.
'West Show CorreapoBdeaec.
Governor West showed correspond
ence and also copies of a bill which
was introduced in Congress April 24,
1912. asking for the very thing which
the Attorney-General said the Gov
ernor had failed to do. The bill was
introduced by Senator Chamberlain on
the request of the Governor. Its pass
age was delayed because of an amend
ment which the Interior Department
desired to place in the bill protecting
those who had made application for
lands In the sections covered by the
bill.
The Governor says the bill will come
before the next Congress and probably
be passed.
"The Attorney-General should make
Investigation before he promiscuously
' hands out statements such as he has.
said the Governor. "It may be easy
enough to get a bill through Congress,
but this one has been delayed In pass
sage. The bill was Introduced many
, months ago without the advice or help
of the Attorney-General, as I drafted
it myself, and now he comes in with
a suggestion that was taken up so long
ago it's history."
Cran ford Makes Ckargra.
The Attorney-General, in making his
charges to tho State Land Board rela
tive to the Governor, after stating that
he Is ready to take up the cancellation
suits in the Benson-Hyde cases and
that he has been delayed by records be
ing retained at Washington says in
part, as follows:
-We notice by your communication
and inclosures above mentioned that
the matter is now wholly in the hands
of the Attorney-General and beg to as
sure your Board that the case will be
rromptly prosecuted and the land re
covered for the state If possible.
"We notice in the record transmitted
in your communication that a member
of your board, the Governor, expresses
lack of confidence in the Attorney-General.
While this is a matter of per
sonal conscience on the part of his ex
cellency, we regret very much that the
faith is not stronger. Had it been, and
the suggestions of the Attorney-General
been heeded and acted upon. It
would have saved the state school fund
at least J50.000 in one transaction.
In the latter part of Governor Ben
son's administration, the Attorney
General's attention was called to some
lakes in Lake County which were
claimed to contain mineral salts of dif
ferent kinds, and also that some of the
lands surrounding the same were per
meated with such salts. The Attorney
General investigated the same as far
i. 3 he was able, and when the present
administration came into power handed
nil the correspondence over to the new
officers with the suggestion that our
delegation in Congress cause the lands
and any interest the Federal Govern
ment might have in the beds of the
lakes, to-wlt:
"Albert and Summer lakes in Lake
Vounty. to be donated to the state in
lieu of the six salt springs the state
was entitled to under the enabling act
of lsa9, but which it did not secure for
the reason that their existence was nat
at that time known and the time with
in whi-h the state must select the same
expired.
West's Artloa Related.
"Instead of following this sugges
tion, the Governor caused the state land
agent to select tracts of land around
these lakes as indemnity school lands,
and made the usual application to the
Federal Land Department for patent to
the same, and then a lease was exe
cuted with parties who proposed ex
ploiting these mineral salts.
"The school land base used in these
selections was worth at the time over
J5O.000 at the price the state was then
selling that class of lands. If the
lands prove to be valuable on account
of the salts contained therein then,
the using of the $50,000 worth of school
lands to secure the same will not be
a loss' to the state, but will be repaid
in royalties. If the venture falls, then
it is a total loss to the state, and. in
any event. Congress without doubt
. would have donated these lands to the
state in lieu of the said salt springs,
' as the land is worthless unless it does
1 contain these salts.
"We hope to be pardoned for sug
gesting that it is not a wise public
' policy which permits speculation with
' school funds of the state, whether in
.money or lands. Concerted action on
th. nart of the Governor and our dele
gation in Congress, when Congress
tigatn meets, might yet save this money.

withdraw its application.

SPOKANE IS READY
City's Fifth Great Apple Show
to Open Monday.
12 STATES REPRESENTED
Robert E. Strahorn, of Portland, to
Preside Over Greatest KxhlWt of
Its Kind Ever Held In This
or Any Countrj.
spokane. Wash.. Nov. 9. (Special.)
Spokane is ready for the fifth annual
Apple Show, wnicn will De openea muu
day mornltur. Tho streets are deco
rated, the Mystic Order of Enakops
are in their dens ready for their car
nival of amusement, sou cxniDitors nave
placed their fruits to the best advan
tage to catch a slice oC the 15.000 that
Is to be distributed in cash prizes, and
three Governors of as many states are
here to lend their physical and moral
strength to a lusty welcome . to Rex
Apple V and his subjects, i
Governors Hay, of Washington: Nor
rls. of Montana, and Hawley, of Idaho,
will aid in doing official honors to the
opening of the greatest apple show ever
held in the history of the world, and
which will be presided over by Robert
E. Strahorn, the railroad builder, of
Portland. Mr. Strahorn has been given
the graceful compliment of being made
president of this show because of his
connection with the construction of the
electrical suburban railroad through
the Yakima Valley and his interest in
horticultural subjeots. He will deliver
his address on Thursday and is expect
ed to give much information concern
ing the industry in tie Northwest.
Aside from the tremendous value of
the Apple Show to students of better
fruit, there will be numerous enter
taining features to amuse the people
in attendance. One of the novelties will
be the giant kettle, wnich is to cook
500 bushels of apples at a time, and
the equally astonishing oven, which
will bake 2500 apple pies at one cook
ing. At the suggestion of President Stra
horn, all of the fruits which can be
secured will be turned over to the rail
roads for exhibit in the windows of
buildings in Eastern cities. The O.-W.
R. & N., the Southern Pacific and the
Great Northern have already placed
applications for as many of the ex
hibits as they can be given. The frutt
will go to such cities as New York,
Chicago, Boston. Cincinnati, Cleveland.
St. Louis, Detroit and Buffalo, and each
display will carry cards giving full in
formation as to where the fruit was
grown and by whom.
Twelve different states will be rep
resented In the exhibits, the farthest
away from Spokane being Maryland
and Tennessee. The Canadian prov
inces also have applegrowers who will
send in fruit that they believe is capa
ble of annexing a prize.
The programme for serious discus
sion durlner tho week carries Buch sub
jects as Choice of Site, Varieties, Cul
tivation of Orchard. Pruning, Spraying,
Harvesting." What twGrow Between the
Rows. Financing. By-Products. Stor
age and Preservation and Marketing.

cial.) The first step in the building of
the municipal gravity water system for
Chehalis was taken this week when the
County Commissioners granted the city
commission a right-of-way for a pipe
line along the county road leading east
of Chehalis as far as it could be used
for the purpose intended. It will be
something like a month now when the
bond question will be definitely settled
by Federal Judge Cushman. of Tacoma.
This is whether or not the city may
use bonds voted to apply on the pur
chase price of the present system on
the building of a new system.
