MEW LEADERS WILL
APPEAR IN HOUSE
Champ Clark Will Be Speaker,
but Underwood's Place
,. Is Yet to Be Filled.
KITCHIN LOOMING LARGE
Henry of Texas Wants Place and Is
Favorite at White House, but Is
Not Taken So Seriously by
Others as by Himself.
OREGON I AN" NEWS BUREAU, Wash-
Inirton. Nov. 7. During: the three
months of the short session of Con
gress, Democratic leaders In the House
will play considerable Inside politics.
and If possible frame a new slate to
put through when the new House of
Representatives orgranlzes. There 'Is no
doubt that Champ Clark will be Speak
er of the next House, If he wants to
be, and there is every Indication that
Ills desire Is to succeed himself in his
present office.
The election of Representative "Un
derwood to the Senate leaves vacant
the chairmanship of the ways and
means committee, and the holder of
that office always is. ex-officio. the
floor leader of the majority party. It
Is over the floor leadership that the
hi fight will come, for it Is likely
that the ways and means committee
will be prominent in the work of the
next Congress, the tariff having al
ready been revised by the Democrats.
Clande Kltchin In Line.
The ranking member of the ways
md means committee, and the man
logically In line for the chairmanship
when Mr. Underwood goes to the Sen
ate, Is Representative Claude Kltchin,
of North Carolina, and the probaoill
ties are that Mr. Kltchin will succeed
Mr. Underwood as chairman of the
ways and means committee and as
Democratic floor leader. He will not
succeed Underwood without a fight.
His principal opponent will be Repre
sentative Henry, or Texas, now cnair
man of the rules committee, and one
of the three "Wilson pets" In the pres
ent House.
Mr. Henry wants, ultimately, to be
Eenator from Texas, and has his eye
on the seat now filled by Senator Cul
berson, whose term expires on March
4. 1917. He realizes that the more
prominence he can attain in the House,
the better will be his prospects for
election to the Senate in another two
years. Mr. Henry takes himself serl
ously; he has done so. In fact, ever
since he was mentioned lor Attor
ney-General Just prior to the advent
f the Wilson Administration. Toward
the close of the last session of Con
gress Mr. Henry attained considerable
notoriety by reason of his boisterous
demand for cotton legislation. He was
going to keep Congress In session un
til December 1, unless an unwilling
majority should pass his famous cotton
relief bills.
Mr. Henry Pleased With Himself.
He did actually prolong the session
several days by demanding a quorum
In the House, only to surrender cheap
ly on the last day when he attempted
to square himself by declaring that
Congress would be called back on No
vember 15 to pass his cotton bills a
declaration since pronounced false by
the White House.
But, aside from all this. Mr. Henry
thinks he is the greatest Democrat on
the Democratic side of the House to
day, and, therefore, the logical man to
succeed Mr. Underwood as floor leader.
Unfortunately for Mr. Henry, there are
not many members who take his own
appraisement of himself, and. while he
will make a great commotion and ad
vertise himself as the logical successor
to Underwood, he will not land the
place, in all likelihood. Henry has few
friends and few followers in the White
House. He is a White House favorite,
It Is true, but that will not help him
much In his effort to win new honors
In the House.
I'llmrr Is Eliminated.
The elimination of A. Mitchell Palm
er, of Pennsylvania, removes him from
the list of aspirants for the Democratic
leadership. Palmer, in a way, sacri
ficed himself in the Pennsylvania Sen
atorial campaign, but had he been con
tent to seek re-election to the House
he might have been put forward as the
Administration s candidate lor floor
leadership. With Palmer eliminated
from the next House, the fight will be
between Kitchin and Henry, with the
odds strongly favoring Kltchin. While
Representative Kitchin has not won a
National reputation during the 14
years he has been a member of the
House, he has won -the friendship of
all members who know him, and today
Is one of the most popular members of
Congress. Kitchin is a man of no mean
ability, and in a rough-and-tumble de
bate there is no Democrat who can
stand up better or longer than he. In
fact Kitchin is better able than was
Underwood to cope with the sarcastic
Mr. Mann, of Illinois, the Republican
floor leader, and if he becomes the
Democratic leader will be more ag
gressive than was Mr. Underwood, and
will more frequently "mix it up" with
Jhe Republican leader.
Kltchin Unlike Underwood.
Kltchin loves the combat of debate;
Underwood tried to avoid it. With It
all, Kltchin, when so inclined, can
make as polished and as adroit a
speech as any member of the House.
From long service he is familiar with
parliamentary practices and with po
lltical tricks, and in some respects he
is better fitted lor party leadership
than is Mr. Underwood, who goes to
the Senate.
Representative Henry is In no way
fitted for this honor, but he is one of
the few members of the House who
does not know it.

Japanese Use Heavy Artillery.
'A general bombardment on October
31 permitted the occupation on No
vember 1 of the first attacking posi
tion 36.5 meter hill, 3000 feet south of
our previous position, and bounded by
the ShI-Ho and the Shunkas-Ho. We
entrenched and prepared for a further
advance and on November 4 we pro
gressed to a second position at Pom
puga on the Fasaus-Ho, where we met
a galling fire, yet never flinched. The
heavy artillery moved closer and co
operated with and protected the infantry.
"On the night of November 6 we oc
cupied the third and final attacking
position in front of the entanglements
that screened the forts. General To
shiml Yamada's command advanced
from the center and forced Its way
through three heavily-wired defenses,
crossed the intervening ditches and,
charging courageously, captured the
center force. This helped General
Horiochl to occupy the northerly forts.

PARIS, Oct. 29. (Correspondence of
the Associated Press.) Advances made
in surgery during the last few years
are being utilized with remarkable re
sults In the treatment of wounded sol
diers. American surgeons who have
gone to the front, in particular, are
performing frequent operations which.
while not new to science, have been
rare in the past. Through their ef
forts men who otherwise would be
compelled to go through life maimed
and disfigured are being reconstructed
physically, while at the same time
these surgeons are obtaining expert
ence of such a varied character as
would be impossible except in time of
war.
Dr. Joseph Blake, of New York, at
tne American Ambulance Hospital, is
making a new nose. Over an artificial
bridge he Is grafting flesh and skin

SALEM, Or., Nov. 7. (Special.)
Having as Its purpose the safeguard
ing pf the Interests of its members the
Oregon HopgrowersV Association was
organized here today at a meeting of
about 125 growers. It Is planned for
delegates from this and similar asso
ciations organized In Washington and
California to meet here the latter part
of November and organize the Pacific
Coast Association, with which the state
associations will become affiliated
members.
According-to a resolution which was
adopted, the association contemplates
making an arrangement which will put
an end to the contracting of hops and
give to the grower the best prices. It
will arrange to advance sufficient
money to growers who have not the
necessary capital lor cultivating ana
harvesting of crops. Another resolu
tion which was adopted urges all
growers to hold their hops of the pres
ent year until the organization of the
Coast association is completed. It Is
believed that by doing so better prices
than now prevail will be received.
The following officers were elected
for the Oregon association:

The board of directors will serve as
the Oregon delegation to the meeting
to organize the Pacific Coast Asso
ciation. George Hewlett, vice-president
of the Mendocino County Hopgrowers1
Association of California, had made the
following suggestions for the organi
zation:
"An association controlled and man
aged by Oregon growers.
Stock to Be Issued.
"Form 1 To issue stock and learn
at once the amount of stock the grow
ers will take.
"Form two: Issue no stock and fix
10 as membership fee. A business
management organization would con
sist of one of three plans.
"Plan one: The absolute purchase of
the growers' hops. Plan two: Growers
to deal through a corporation commis
sion basis. Plan three: Same as plan
two, with exception that the corpora
tion has the right to buy hops from
growers at the market price, returning
them to dividends, less a commission
to the state organization."
The California association favors the
third plan, and It Is probable that It
will be Incorporated In the bylaws of
the Oregon association.

RECALL LAW HAS LIMIT
SCHOOL DIRECTORS NOT SUBJECT,
HOLDS OREGON CITY JUDGE.
Opinion Based on Inability of Any Offi
cial to RecelTe Petition or to
Order Special Election.
OREGON CITY, Or, Nov. 7 (Spe
cial.) That the recall law did not apply
to school districts was the decision of
Circuit Judge Campbell today, when he
sustained a demurrer In the Jennings
Lodge recall case.
The recall law provides that a recall
petition shlll be nied with the officer
with whom a nominating petition would
be filed and that this officer shall call
the election. The principal point on
which Judge Campbell's decision was
based was that tnere Is not such an
officer in a school district, and, there
fore, no one with whom to file a recall
petition or no one to call a recall elec
tion.
The recall was directed against Will-
lam Jacobs and Mrs. V. K. Smith, and
followed a long and bitter contest be
tween two factions in the Jennings
Lodge district- One side was opposed
to the district paying tuition for stu
dents attending high school In Oregon
City, while the other faction favored
such a plan. The directors at whom
the recall was directed favored paying
the tuition.
Last Spring a recall petition was cir
culated in the district and filed with
the School Clerk. The petition was ig
nored and the matter was dropped dur
ing the Summer months until school
opened again this Fall, when those
backing the recall procured a writ of
mandamus. The two school directors
then filed a demurrer, which was sus
tained today.

ROME, Nov. 7. Dispatches from Con
stantinople describe the situation there
as outwardly much as it was during
the Balkan war. Foreigners are re
garded with suspicion and keep to
themselves, c-cept in the case of Ger
mans, who may be seen everywhere.
German money is so plentiful that it is
often accepted as though it were Tur
kish. In the cafes the German language is
constantly heard and this is true also
of places of amusement.
The governing classes are described
as appearing solemnly confident, but
the army is declared to be totally un
prepared for war.
Storehouses Are Empty.
The storehouses are said to be empty
and no commissariat exists. Many sol
diers are still wearing their uniforms
worn in the Balkan war and the army
officers have not all been paid, it is
asserted. -
There is a scarcity of ammunition,
according to the correspondents, who
add that since the beginning of the
present war the Germans have been
trying to overcome these drawbacks
and, to a certain extent, have succeed
ed. They have poured Into Turkey
German officers, privates, sailors, arms
and ammunition, and above all, money.
It Is also said that they have sent a
submarine to Turkey.
Leaders Promise Military Glory.
Enver Pasha, the Turkish Minister of
War, and General Liman Von Sanders,
the German commander of the Otto
man army, are the idols of the moment,
says one correspondent, who adds:
"They have promised the people mili
tary glory and certain conquests fol
lowed by riches and prosperity through
the spoils of war. Enver Pasha already
Is depicted as the Ottoman Napoleon,
but meanwhile, notwithstanding Ger
many's assistance, the financial neces
sities are so pressing that a new taxa
tion has been imposed and the salaries
of officials. Including tne diplomats,
have been curtailed."
