SENATE, HAS NOT YET " ' APPROVED APPOINTMENT Roosevelt i, Selected Present Incum bent but k;y Not Oppose a Change .'When Balked by the Only Repre . senUtive. in Congress Oregon Has Probate Successor Not Known. - ' --v. C. J. Reed's tenure of office as United States marshal for Oregon may end with the coming' session of congress. - A report', to . this effect "has been In circulation for.' many weeks and today was reiterated by a politician who la known to be close to United States Sena tor C W. Fulton. Senator Fulton, who la at the Imperial -hotel, would not dis cuss the matter. He stated that he will return to Washington not later than No vember It and that then he will take up the task of disposing of .federal asr .polntments that are - pending In this state. I Further" than this. Senator Ful ton -had nothing to say. , However, It Is believed that the re port of the precarious nature of Marshal Reed's hold on the office has some foun dation and that Oregon's Junior senator will exercise what has become the pre rogative of members of the upper na tional house, and refuse to permit that body to conf IrmNReed'a appointment ' Senate Mast Act. ' . President Roosevelt named Mr. Reed when congress was not rn session; "there fore it is not yet decided that he wtll remain In" the position, as the senate must- confirm .all such appointments. and that body haa. seldom. -bean-kneerrr to violate the unwritten law that the Senators from the state In which. federal officer la to serve shsll have their wishes consulted before confirms-, tlon of ' the president's appointment Is voted. . - i C. J. Reed was appointed without con sultation with Senator Fulton, who had recommended the retention of W. F. Matthews. Mr. Matthews was removed because It was thought that he wad In sympathy with the accused In the land fraud trials, ,and would not assist the government-in the prosecutions. Mr. Reed Is understood to have been recom mended by the late Judge Bellinger of the federal court - i - ' .r . Wo ' Whom Senator Fulton will mend for Mr. Reed's place In the event he falls of confirmation has not been intimated. . But that the Junior senator will make an effort to prevent Mr. Reed from retaining his' position appears to be warranted by the facts that came Into the possession of a number of poli ticians today. - It la known that Senator Fulton Is personally on good terms with. Presi dent Roosevelt and that the president has premised to defer action on any of the other federal appointments . for Oregon until Senator Fulton returns to the national capital. - - "President Roosevelt is an outspoksn man." said a ' friend of Senator Fulton today, "and were he unfriendly to the senator, he - would not be slow to make It known President Roosevelt has sig nified bis willingness to await further representation by the senator, and by a number of acts haa indicated that he holds the Oregon member of the upper house In high regard. . . "I believe that the president will re spect the rights of the senator and that the latter will be in a Strong position with the senate, which will not violate the time-honored rule -giving' the sena tors the right to control appointments In their home states." ., Meed sTot Pulton's Kaa. An Important fact In this connection is that the appointment of C. J. Reed was extremely distasteful to the friends of Senator Fulton.. That they resented It with considerable vehemence Is ac cepted as an Indication of the -degree to which Senator Fulton himself rtook umbrage at the naming, of Reed. The hint was given today also' that the opposition will strive to convince the president that the course pursued by Marshal Reed since his appointment has not been In all respects- Idea) and the claim is made that this will be a strong element In determining the issue as to his retention or dismissal. ' Altogether, the situation promises to develop an Interesting contest In. the senate, with Senator Fulton holding the trump cards In that body and the friendly personal "-relations between Senator Fulton and President Roose velt sn Important factor- in determin ing whst 1 the outcome will be. .
