ofNce cancels selections made by the
state, the state could then relinquish
Its Interest in the" selection to the
United States, and the purchaser could
at once acquire title thereto by locat
ing acrtp on It or by acquiring title
under the atone and timber act, or oy
homestead aettlement.
The State Wot Warranted.
"I disagreed, for the reaaon that the
atate did not feel warranted in relin
quishing its claim upon the docislon of
the commissioner of the general iana
office, as the slate could not assume
that the secretary of the interior would
affirm the decision of the commissioner
In every case, and for every acre of land
that the atate aurrendered to the gen
eral government. It would have to re
fund to the purchaser under the laws of
this state, whatever he had paid to the
state for his holdings. I could not, and
cannot, assume that all selections that
have been made by the state upon rain
eral and other base, will be Anally held
for cancellation by the secretary of the
Interior. To do so would be to assume
that my predecessors In office had Ig
nored the letter and spirit of the law In
making selections, snd I do not feel
that It would be proper for me to re
linquish the state s claim to these selec
tions until the decisions of the court of
last resort has been received, and that
court Is the office of the secretary of
the Interior.
'The officers of the land department
treated Oregon, through me. with the
greatest courtesy, and I feel that a
more cordial relation will exist between
us In our official connection in the fu
ture. Of one thing I am certain, that
both the secretary of the Interior and
the commissioner of the general land
office have a better knowledge, since
my conference with them, of the gen
eral local conditions affecting Oregon
and Its public lands.
I have not yet decided. In my own
mind, what my future course will be,
but I am determined, ao far as It lies In
my power, to do nothing that will not
have for Its object the adjustment of
the unsettled condition of the public
lands of Oregon. I am not responsible
for these conditions and do not intend
to become Involved with them In any
way whatsoever, except In so far as it
is absolutely necessary to protect the
Interests of the state and those who
have Innocently purchased from It."
Forest Beaerve Policy.
Asked as to the forest reserve policy
of the present administration, the gov
ernor said:
"I conferred. In reference to this sub
ject, with the secretary of the interior,
the commissioner of the general land
office, and Mr. Plnchot of the forestry
bureau. At the time of the conference
with them, their policy had not been
made public, so far as I was advlaed.
It la claimed by them that no perma
nent reserve will be created until local
conditions are fully understood; that
nothing will bo done hastily, and that
the effect of holding vast areas within
temporary reserves until additional con
gressional legislation has been had, will
result in putting a stop to the land
grabbing policy which has been In vogue
on the part of speculators In the past
Commissioner Richards, In his report
made publlo since our Interview, Insists
that the laws of 1897 and 1900 provid
ing for the creation of reserves, should
be so amended that the scrip created
by the creation of permanent reserves
could be located only on untlmbered
lands. If this policy Is faithfully ad
hered to, or if the law Is amended so
that the acrip holders would be com-

While being launched yesterday after
. noon at Joseph Supple's shipyards the
steamer Sue Elmore went aground.
' Bhoal water Is on either aide of her,
and It was decided to wait for high tide
late tonight before making an attempt
to move her from ber sandy resting
place.
She la. lying easy, and it Is believed
that she sustained no damage. At about
11 o clock tonight there will be In the
neighborhood of a three-foot tide, and It
Is said that this will be sufficient to
' float her out Into deep water. Her bow
Is pointed down stream, and she looks
as though full preparations had been
made for her to go out on a trip.
Those present at the launching state
that a doubt was entertained at tho
time as to whether or not there woulj
be a sufficient amount of water near
the yards to float her. but It was con
cluded to risk it, believing that no dam
age could posplbly result. The river
is also gradually rising on account of
the recent rains, and.wito the flood tide
tonight It is claimed there will be ample
water to get the grounded steamer afloat.
Tho Sue Elmore Is operated as a pas.
senger and freight boat between Astoria
and Tillamook. While In the storm of
about three weeks ago she ran on a
i rock in Tillamook bay and broke hen
keel. She was brought up to Portland
to be repaired, and the work was com
pleted yesterday. As soon as removed
from her stranded position she will

her regular fun.

Up to noon the big steamship Algoa

equivalent to about "0,000 barrels of the
former product. This morning Bhe
shifted to the Alblna dock, where the

Ignorance of Oregon.
Gov. Chamberlain expressed his sur
prise at the imperfect knowledge of
Oregon on the part of the people of the
East and South. In speaking of this
he said:
"Oregon Is comparatively little known
and little understood by the great mass
of the people of the East and South. I
do not know who is to blame for this
unless It Is the Associated Press. Nut
a day passed during my absence that I
did not take the dally papers of the
cities and towns In which I visited, and
I searched In vain for news from Ore
gon. I did this because the local pa
pers of this state could not only be had
In a few of the cities at their local
headquarters. I do not remember now
of having been able to find any news
items from Oregon except those of a
criminal nature, and I recall now only
those Items referring to the indict
ment of certain parties In the United
States court at Portland in connection
with land, frauds.
"I actually found intelligent men who
did not seem to know the exact location
of Oregon on the map, and the great
mass of the people Is unadvised as to
the wealth, and resources of this state.
The territory north snd south of Ore
gon is quite extensively advertised and
understood, but Oregon seems to be be
tween the tipper and nether mill-stone.
so far as the exploiting of her resources
Is concerned.
Oregon a Great Pleld.
In conversation with men In the
Middle West, conditions were found
to be not so bad. In fact, the manager
of a large railroad system operating
between Omaha and Chicago, in conver
sation with me, stated it as his opinion
inai uregon was the best field for In
vestment in the whole Western terri
tory, and that if he were 20 years
younger he would certainlv cast his lot
and Invest his all with the people of
this state. He expressed it as his opin
ion tnat uregon has not made sufficient
effort to keep pace with her sister states
and for that reason is a most excellent
Held for commercial activity and ex
pansion.
I talked the Lewis and Clark exnoni-
tlon wherever I happened to be, and this,
too, wm nave to be advertised more ex
it-uoivdy in oraer to maKe it a suc
cess, but I feel that It Is a little early
as yet to attempt to do more than has
been done, for the reason that the
Louisiana Purchase exposition is now
aosorblng a large share of public in
terest. Oregon should have an excel
lent exhibit In St. Louis, and much good
can be done there and between the
closing of that fair and tho Inaugura
tion of the Lewis and Clark exposition.
iou may not believe me when I tell
you that a great many people with whom
I talked asked me who Lewis and Clark
were, and one man wanted to know if
they were local statesmen and what
particular act of theirs "called for such
celebration as was proposed.
"In the final analysis of it alL how
ever, Oregon beau the world, and I am
glad to get back and feel that the webs
are again beginning to grow where, dur
ing my temporary absence from this

should now participate in the election of
another senator to succeed Wlljlamson.
It would have double representation In
the upper house.
However, this mater Is' less Impor
tant that It at first appears. Like every
legislative body, the senate is the sole
judge of the qualifications of Its mem
bers, and if it sees fit to ignore techni
cal difficulties such as arise in the case
of the Ninth district, its action cannot
be questioned. If the governor decides
to call a special session he will doubt
less order a special election In the Ninth
district as re-apportioned, allowing
Grant county to participate in the selec
tion of the senator.

r.ano-fltt. engineer officer In charge of
the government work at the mouth of
the river. Captain eanrora arnvea yea
trdav from San Francisco to superln
tend the trial of the ocean dredger
Chinook, which is the converted army
transport Grant. Captain Sanford has
directed the conversion of the Grant
and, according to the understanding
hor a mono- the army engineers, Is to
turn over the dredger to Major Lang
fltt so soon as it has been shown to be
for the work at the Columbia
bar. Captain Sanford is stationed at
Mart, Talnnd. San Francisco. Hi lJ a
im.it at the Portland hotel;
The Chinook will be used exclusively
for deep-water dredging, tne announce;
ment having been made that it will not
h used for harbor dredging, as was
expected by representatives of the ship
ping interests in Portland and Astoria.
The Chinook will of necessity be un
able to do much work this fall. The
winter storms will prevent dredging on
the bar to any extent so that ths -utility
of the Chinook will not be demon
strated as applied to the Columbia until
next spring
Reports from Mara Island, however,
are to the effect that the converted
transport works Ideally ss a deep-water
dredger, and engineers snd army offi
cers believe it will accomplish what
was expected in the Improvement of the
bar at Astoria.
, It is expected that Captain Sanford
and Major Langfltt will rettusn-to PX&:
land tomorrow.
