FORMER FOES IN CROWD
Colonel Declares Hyphen Is
Sinister Drawn Across Our
i tional Coat of Arms"; Dewey
Provoker of Peace, He Says.
OYSTER BAT. IS'. T., May 27. (Spe
cial.) Singing "The Army and 'Navy
Forever." 3000 pilgrims climbed Saga
more Hill this afternoon to pledse their
allegiance to Theoaore Roosevelt, and
to him plead for real Americanism and
an Army and Navy that would forever
preserve the peace and Integrity of the
United States.
Of the 3000, two-thirds came in spe
cial trains from New Tork, embracing
In their ranks men from every walk of
life. Wall-street banker as well as
mechanic: Moose and Democrat as well
as Republican.
The visitors marched through the vil
lage streets and the long winding road
that leads to Sagamore Hill, a strong
three miles from the station. At the
head of the parade, led by the Seventh
Regiment Band. New York National
Guard, was Guy Emerson, secretary of
the Roosevelt Non-Partisan League,
and his aides. As the band came up
Sagamore Hill it broke Into "Dixie,"
following this with "Marching Through
Georgia," and as the crest was reached
broke into the strains of "Columbia"
with the leading ranks joining in the
chorus: "The Army and Navy forever:
three cheers for the Red, White and
Blue."
"Wonderful," San Colonel,
Colonel Roosevelt, wearing the famil
iar riding suit, with spurs on his boots,
stepped on the veranda aa the parade
came Into view through the trees.
"By George! Isn't it great? Isn't it
wonderful?" he exclaimed.
Waving the flags, marching four
abreast, the cheering crowd passed in
review before the Colonel and massed
themselves on the west side of the
house.
It was to men like these and to oth
ers born beyond the seas that the
Colonel's reply to the speech of Richard
M. Hurd, president of the Lawyers
Mortgage Company, spokesman for the
pilgrims, was addressed. Hurd, para
phrasing Lincoln, had declared:
"This country cannot exist half
American, half hyphen."
To this the Colonel gave his unquali
fied assent, and the declaration that
the hyphen la a "bar sinister drawn
across our National eoat-of-arms."
"We have." he said, punching his
right fist Into his left hand, "the right
to demand that every man who comes
here become an American and nothing
else."
Cheera Interrupt Talk.
Those who thus come, the natives of
this country and particularly those of
old native stock, he declared, owed the
obligation "to make this country one
to which a man can be loyaL"
"for you cannot expect to get loyalty
from the Immigrants or the immi
grants children until you make this a
country to which a proud man can
be loyal."
Again and again .Mr. Roosevelt was
Interrupted with cheers. articularlv
when he referred to Admiral Dewey's
letter In the morning papers relative
to the Incident with. Germanv in thn
Venezuelan matter as evidence of the
soundness of that theory.
Dewey." said he, 'was the greatest
possible provocative of peace." In the
crowd were Chancellor James A. Day,
tne colonel s old enemy, and Patrick
J'-gan, church leader and former Min
ister to Chile. Both declared they would
worK lor his nomination.

M. R. MOORE IS BOOSTER
O. A. C, Official Praises Hood River
Orchards and Berry Patches.
HOOD RIVER, Or., May 27. (Spe
cial.) "I haven't seen quite all of the
13.000 acres of orchards." said N. R.
Moore, secretary of the board of re
gents of the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege, who while on a tour of the East
ern Oregon branches of the Oregon Ex
periment Station, stopped here this
week for a visit at the local branch,
"'but I have inspected enough of them
end your splendid berry patches to be
filled with the enthusiasi.i that marks
the Hood River booster."
Mr. Moore was here to urge the ne
, cessity of friendly co-operation between
the station and the orchards, that the
full benefit of the institution might be
derived.
. OREGONIAX NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, May 27. "The nominee of the
Chicago convention is already selected.
Justice Hughes is that man," declared
Senator Jones, of Washington, in an
authorized interview today. Senator
Jones further said:
"Those intrusted with leadership
should recognize this situation and, if
they are politically wise, they will ac
cept it. If the people's will is not car
ried out they will put the blame upon
the party leaders and party representa
tives, and they will not hesitate to ex
press their resentment at the polls.
People Tired of Administration.
"The people are tired of this Adminis
tration. They want to get rid of it.
They are sure of how ft can be done.
They do not want their will thwarted
by manipulation.".
Senator Jones denied that the nomi
nation of Hughes would drag the Su
preme Court into politics. "It would be
improper for Hughes to be a candidate,"
he said. "But,"- he added, the people
have a perfect right to select a Supreme
Court judge to fill the highest office in
their gift. The man so selected cannot
refuse." '
Senator Jones is unalterably opposed
to the nomination of Roosevelt. The
Colonel, he declared, could not unite the
Republican party. Furthermore, he
said, the Colonel's political affiliations,
so far as he has declared them recently,
are with a third party. "It is pretty
hard to conceive of the Republican
party's nominating a man belonging to
another party," said the Senator. "You
cannot very well recognize the party
by- giving up entirely to the one man
more responsible than anyone else for
the division."
Real American Platform Wanted.
Concluding, Senator Jones saidi
"The Republican convention and the
third party convention can serve their
country best by recognizing the senti
ment of the people and the logic of the
situation in the unanimous selection of
Justice Hughes on a real American plat
form. Nominated under such circum
stances he would sweep the country.
There would be nothing to It but
counting or the votes, and the men
who should bring about such a result
would greatly- increase the esteem in
which they are now held by the people
and would lose nothing in the future.
tion until Friday, and after the naval
bill passes the committee , will not re
sume sittings until after the conven
tions. Conferences which F. C. Harley,
chairman of the naval base committee,
had today with members of the Oregon
delegation and with Senators and Rep
resentatives from other states and
with several officers of the Navy De
partment lead him to the belief that
provision for the Columbia River naval
base will be Incorporated in the naval
appropriation bill when that measure is
before the Senate. The consensus of
opinion, as Mr. Harley finds it, is that
the initial appropriation for the Colum
bia River should be for a submarine
or a submarine and torpedo base, to
cost in-the neighborhood of $1,000,000,
and the Intimation is given that the
Navy Department will' favor a substi
tute for the Hawley-Lane bill author
izing such a base.
Senator Lane said today that he was
satisfied, beyond question, that a sub
marine and torpedo base can be se
cured for the Columbia and the neces
sary appropriation be obtained to begin
construction. He looks for authoriza
tion of an expenditure of $1,000,000,
half of which is to be made immediate
ly available.
Chairman Harley and the members
of the Oregon delegation are now
working in entire accord.

OREGON! AN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. May 27. Senator Lane Is en
deavoring to arrange a Tearing for the
Columbia naval base "bill before the
Senate naval committee some day next
week.
Several members of the committee
have suggested that the hearing be
postponed until after the conventions,
by which time the committee will take
up the naval appropriation bill and will
be glad to consider the Columbia River
bill along with the other naval projects,
Senator Lane Is urging, however, that
a special hearing be given on his naval
base bill in advance of the consldera

Representative Hawley. after further

the State Water Board, will call not
merely for an adjudication of rights as
existing between -the Oregon Lumber
Company and the East Fork Irrigation
District,--but for the rights, as well, of
all interested parties and concerns in
the Hood River watershed.
"Hood River County's two chief in
terests, orcharding and electric power,
both dependent on the stream that
bisects the valley, will be brought face
to face In a battle that in legal circles
will eclipse such former record cases as
that of the Willow Creek controversy

Hough vs. Porter, the latter involving
a big district In Klamath County."
The case In question was taken to the
Supreme Court from a decision of Cir
cuit Judge W. L. Bradshaw, of The
Dalles, last year. Litigation arose
when the district made preparations to
make use of the greater portion of 7000
Inches of water on the east fork of
Hood River, to which It alleged a right
by prior filings. The lumber company
maintained in Its complaint, in seeking
to enjoin the district from the use of
the water, that such a use would ham
