NEW METHOD ATTACKED
Greater Secrecy In Making Tariff
Never Observed Than Marked
Cndenvood Bill, Ohio Re
publicans Are Told.
COLUMBUS. O.. July 12. Business
Interests have a right to be represented
at Washington, but would' not need to
maintain ' a lobby there if the Tariff
Board were kept up, argued ex-Representative
Watson, of Indiana, the prin
cipal speaker at today's annual outing
of the Buckeye Republican Club. He
referred to- the lobby investigation by
the Senate committee, before which he
will be a witness next week by his own
request. He did not mention Colonel
Mulhall, whose published correspond
ence referred to him.
"I plead for business to go on and
do business In this country," he said.
"There had to be a shaking? up. Roose
velt came along; at the right time. He
was a castor oil statesman. But he
wanted the Nation to take castor oil
all the time. But now Rive honest busi
ness a chalice.
"Soak Him" Written on Temple.
"Don't keep hammering it continu
ously. The present tendency Is icono
clastic to smash something;. Over the
American, temple is written today, 'Soak
him.' I am being; investigated myself.
That Is a personal matter. I didn't
do anything; wrong;.
"American business has a rigrht to be
represented at Washington honestly
represented," he said. "Men wouldn't
need to go to Washington to give some
data for making schedules If a tariff
board were kept at work. I never
knew a corrupt man In Congress or one
who sold or would sell his vote for
money."
He attacked the Democratic method
of making a tariff bill by caucus decree.
Tariff Made Secretly.
"President Wilson at Indianapolis in
'the first speech of his tour, said there
was no necessity for secrecy in Con
gressional discussion," said Watson.
"Yet there was never such secrecy in
making a tariff bill as tn the case of
the Underwood bill, low the Simmons
bill. In President Wilson's book, 'Our
New Freedom, page 112, he says, "There
is no excuse for the caucus in Con
gress.' Yet for the first time in the
history of tariff making a party caucus
has been called forcibly to bind every
Senator to vote for the tariff bill, Just
as it comes from the committee, with
out change or amendment. Theory at
Princeton is one thing and practice at
Washington Is another thing."
SPENDTHRIFjrCHIDES SIRE
X-Vencli Millionaire Reproached by
Bon for Restraint.
PARIS, July 12. (Special.) An
amusing, though unfijlal series of re
proaches have been directed against M.
Jules Alexandre Duval, the millionaire
proprietor of the Duval restaurants In
Pans, by his son, M. Pierre Duval.
M. Duval Is trying to limit this young
man's opportunity for running up debts
by obtaining a restraining order of the
court against him. By the time he was
18, young Pierre Duval had accumu
lated 4000 worth of 'labilities. He then
entered a cavalry regiment for his
term of military service, and, despite
an allowance of 20 a week from home,
he soon added another $4000 to the
total. His father then, obtained the
transfer of his on to an Algerian bat
talion, but a couple of thousand dol
lars were roon owing there, and In ad.
dltion Pierre borrowed $60 from a
shoemaker of the regiment.
When his son returned to France the
restaurant proprietor advertised in the
newspapers that he would not be re
sponsible for further debts. The young
man replied by sending to his father a
postcard bearing a lifelike sketch of
jumseir. addressed "Au gentllhomme
consomme" a French pun which may
be roughly rendered, "To a broth of a
gentleman. "
The message read, "Many thanks for
the little advertisement. From a scion
of Godfrey de.. Bouillon the brilliant
.rrencn mediaeval knlsrht. whose sur.
name happens to be the title of the"
nrst course on the bills of fare of the
restaurants Duval."
WOMEN ' ARE VIGILANTES
Watch Kept on Liquor Traffic In
County of Koscommon.
BERLIN, July 12. (Special.)
i-romp:ed by a spirit of emulation, a
number of women In the County of Ros
common have started a crusade against
the activities or the liquor traffic in
that territory.
They have not yet adopted the Ama
zonian methods of the women ot Kan
sas, but there Is no doubt they have
gone a long way towards modeling
their campaign on the best American
lines.
The town of Roscommon has a liquor
saloon for every 20 of its adult popu
lation, and the women feel that this
generous provision of drinking facil
ities must ba reduced before the place
can be restored to a normal-stale of
sobriety.
'They have therefore constituted
themselves a sort of vigilance society,
and for the last two or three market
days they have paraded the town look
ing for persons under the influence of
drink, whom they promptly hand over
on discovery to the nearest policeman.
They also mix amongst customers in
the saloons, disguised in various ways,
and report the smallest breach of the
' licensing laws to the local judges.
What is most surprising is that many
of the wives and daughters of the har
assed saloon-keepers have Joined these
new temperance campaigners. They
feared the social 'Ostracism that would
follow a refusal to act with the other
women more than the remonstrances
of their husbands and fathers.

OFFICES GO BEGGING
Postoffice Department Lacks
Applicants to Go 'Round.
EXAMINATION NOT POPULAR
Store Than S60O Offices of Various
Grades Still Vacant, and No
One Appears at Dates Set
for Formal Tests.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
tngton, July 6. Postoffices are going
begging, notwithstanding the general
clamor of Democrats for places on the
Federal payroll. In Oregon, for ex
ample, there are four Presidential post
offices vacant. In face of the fact that
the Postmaster-General called on Sena
tors Chamberlain and Lane to submit
recommendations. The names of the
offices are not made public at this time,
but unless the Senators make recom
mendations soon, the department will
take other means of filling them.
In addition to the four Presidential
offices, there are 20 fourth-class offices
In Oregon unfilled, but these will be
filled by competitive examination un
der the new civil service order, the sal
aries being between $500 and $1000.
Forty-five additional fourth-class offi
ces; where the salaries run less than
1500 per annum, are vacant and will
be filled by postoffice inspectors.
Other States In Like Condition.
In Washington the situation is equally
bad, there being seven Presidential
offices and 29 fourth-class offices worth
more than $500 a year vacant, while 39
of the smaller offices are to be filled
by inspectors. In Idaho one Presiden
tial office is vacant; 30 fourth-class
offices of the higher grade, and 35 of
the smaller offices are all awaiting ap
pointments. In the United States at large there-
are 471 vacant Presidential postmaster
ships, and there are 1353 fourth-class
offices paying from $500 to $1000 where
candidates have not appeared, while
the total of small offices vacant is 1796.
This situation, except as to Presiden
tial postoffices, indicates that candi
dates who otherwise might apply for
these appointments do- not care to
bother with a civil service examina
tion. ' Applicants Do Not Appear.
Of the better grade of fourth-class
offices, all are vacant because when
examinations were set no one appeared
to take the test, and in the smaller
offices the vacancies occur largely be
cause those appointed by postoffice in
spectors must pass a pro forma exami
nation before they can be commissioned.
It looks, at a glance, as though the
Postoffice Department Is in for a loirg
siege of embarrassment because of the
civil service rule applied to fourth-class
postoffices, and the prediction,, made
when the order became operative, is
being fulfilled.- People do not want to
bother with a civil service examina
tion to get a small-salaried office.
SUIT FILED TO QUIET TITLE
State Is Asked to Clear Ownership
to "Wagon Road Grants.
Charles Aitschul brought suit yester
day in the Multnomah County Circuit
Court against the State of Oregon to
quiet title to 107.893 acres of land, part
of old wagon road land grants. Through
a clerical error this land was conveyed
years ago by the Federal Government
to the State of Oregon instead of to
the Willamette Valley & Cascade
Mountain Wagon Road Company, which
was to receive it in consideration for
building a wagon road across the
southern counties of the state.
The tract consisted originally of
876.480 acres, covered by 23 patents. Ot
these. No. 1. was issued erroneously,
the others being Issued directly to the
company. The relief sought by Mr.
Aitschul Is that the 6tate be decreed
to have held the land in trust for the
company. '
