OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash. lngton, Oct. 18. Weekly conferences of the members of the Oregon delegation in Congress are advocated by Senator Chamberlain, who maintains that the Interests of the state, both in leglsbv tlon and on matters pending before the departments, would best be served if the two Senators and three House mem bers would act in concert instead of in dependently, as has been the rule for some time. When the regular session opens. If not before, Senator Chamber lain will bring forward his proposal of regular delegation meetings, hopeful that his suggestion will be adopted. It may not be known In Oregon, but It is well known In Washington City that the Oregon delegation is not acting as ?. unit and has not so acted for several years past. Instead, each member of the delegation has gone ahead on his own responsibility. Duplication of work has resulted and much labor has been wasted. It is well known around the Capitol that there has been little harmony in the Oregon delegation In late years. For a time. Senator Bourne and Senator Chamberlain worked well together, but they seldom, if ever, saw the Houes members, and the House members rare. ly, if ever, called on them, though Mr. Hawley and Mr. Ellis, In the lower House, always worked together. Delegation Lacking la Harmony, The present delegation Is no more harmonious in its action than was the delegation in the preceding two or three Congresses. The Oregon members of the House rarely go to the Senate for conference with Senators, and the Senators do not go to the House end or the Capitol to confer with Messrs. Hawley, Lafferty and Slnnott. Senator Chamberlain and Senator Lane, while working together in a way, often dupll cate each other's work, and the same is true of the three Representatives. On state-wide matters Mr. Hawley and Mr. Sinnott work together, but Mr. Lafferty la almost a stranger to his colleagues and confers with nobody. Senator Chamberlain believes that if the delegation would get together once a week or even twice a month, and dis cuss pending-Oregon matters that are before Congress or before the Depart ments, better results could be obtained. The Senator is right. Those Congres slonal delegations that are most effec tive are tlwse that work In harmony. Even such big delegations as that from Pennsylvania have their conferences at stated intervals and by reason of this concert of action better, results are ob talDed. Effort la Duplicated. AS an Illustration of how the present system In the Oregon delegation works, it may be cited that the Pvtland Cham ber of Commerce, wanting Portland to receive a larger share of War Depart ment business, will write to each mem ber of the delegation, not mentionling the fact to any member that It has written all the others. Senator Cham berlain will see the Secretary of War and find that Senator Lane was in an hour before him on the same mission, or that one of the House members was there earlier In the day; or a House member may find that he is trailing Senator Chamberlain unawares. Thus the Secretary of War receives five calls on a single mission. His time is wasted, and one member of the delegation, au thorized Dy all to act for him and with a written recommendation could have accomplished as much In less time. If Senator Chamberlain's suggestion is carried out. Oregon will get more recognition from the Departments and will get more legislation through Con gress. JEWS NOT NEAR CRIME Movements on Day Russian Boy Was Slain Are Accounted For. KIEV, Oct. 18. The myth concerning the presence of two Jews in the neigh borhood about the time the boy, An drew Yushlnsky, was murdered, was dispelled today at the trial of Mendel Beiliss, charged with the murder, by the testimony of the Jews In question, Landan and Ettlnger, who accounted of congratulation on his election as the first President of the Chinese Re public has been received from Tuaa Shi Kai at the state jeparimeuw reply reads: "Intensely appreciative of your ex cellency's congratulation and compli ment extended to me on the occasion of my inauguration as President or me Chinese Republic, I offer to your ex cellency my most sincere thanks for them. The hish trust and confidence which the people of Chins, through the National Assembly, have seen nt to nlace in me makes me fully conscious of the great responsibilities that go with them. "Happy In the performance of my duties. I always have the luminous ex ample of the United States to guide and help me. It also affords me mucn delight to observe that your excel lency's hope and expectation for the advancement of China ana tne promo tion of the peace, happiness and pros perity of her people under the repub lican system of government coincide precisely with my resolute aim and firm object in carrying on the new ad ministration. With this renewed in dication of sympathy and Interest from your excellency, my hope to draw tne bonds of friendship and good under standing that unite the two sister re publics has grown stronger than ever and it will be an unfailing pleasure to me to co-operate with your excellency to attain this end." The letter was forwarded imme diately to President Wilson. PAY FOR PAVING TIED UP COURT RESTRAINS THE DALLES FROM SETTLING BILL. Linden.-K.ibbe Construction Company I Involved in LttlgatloB That May Last for Months. THE DALLES, Or., Oct 18. (Spe cial.) Circuit Judge Bradshaw grant ed a temporary injunction to Victor Marden restraining the city from pay lng a bill presented by the Linden Klbbe Construction Company, of Port land, and enjoining the city from sell ing or issuing bonds for the purpose of paying the paving concern until further order of the court. In his complaint Mr. Marden alleges that the contract for the bltucrete pavement, which was laid by the Lin den-Klbbe people here this Summer, was not awarded to the "lowest re sponsible bidder," as demanded by the city charter. Arguments to decide whether the restraining order shall assume the form of a permanent in junction or be dissolved probably will be heard within the next two weeks. Judge Bradshaw has announced that he will call in an outside Judge to hear the proceedings, contending he Is not qualified to sit In the case, as he owns property abutting on the pavement which resulted in the controversy. If the Injunction should not be made permanent other suits will be instituted against the city ana tne i-oruana pav ing concern on various grounds, one being that the Llnden-Kibbe Company failed to lay the pavement according to specifications and that it is detect' lve. Indications are that the city and the company will be tied up with litigation for several months. There are several dissatisfied property owners. An ap plication will be made Monaay to tne Circuit Court to make several of the property holders plalntitrs to the com plaint with Marden. The contract which was awarded to Linden-Klbbe totaled 158.062.18. The balance due under the contract Is S38.883.38, accord. lng to the company, which also asks Interest.
