Washington. April' 28. 8rUry Bal
linger ha decided that Harriman may
build the Deschutes railroad through
' Hi ran von, subject to certain restrlc
. ' tlona which will be Imposed. The per-
mission will be under the distinct un
derstanding that construction shall
commence . Immediately. Railroad rlKhta
are not to be acquired, aa they have
' ften been In the. past, to .'be held In-Adt-ftnltely,
under a ''dog in tha manger"
- ' policy, merely to keep other companies
1 from- the-use. of right ot way.
tr-gon peopl who , are now here
iii'tn convinced that the proapeot i ex
cellent for the construction of tha road
In the near future and that matters
'will be adjusted no 'that the railroad
J and the , reclamation . service may co-operate.
' ..,.--..
.It Is Impossible to say exactly what
will be decided as to tha plans of the
reclamation service, but the Intention
la to carry out the original Ideas.
It Is probable the secretary will not
; .'aercpt the recommendation of the rec.la-'-''nation
service engineers to entirely
1 abandon the Itoschutes plan, but will so
.adjust matters that the' arid lands ln-
vnlved may be reclaimed If it Is poa-
- alble to du so. - .
Both Attorney ' Cotton and General
Manager O'Brien of the O. R. A N.
company stated today that they doubt
ed that any official approval had been
riven the report of the reclamation en
gine, because they had received no'
notification or it or any Kind.
- "I bave heard nothing from Wash
ington." said Mr. O'Brien, "and I be
' lleve that under the circumstances I
-.'would have been notified in some way
Jf Secretary Balllnger had" taken such
Motion. In fact, I am not at all certain
that Mr. Bellinger has the right to

JI00T-G0RD0X INQUIRY

Until this afternoon. Kvery ruling so
' far Is In favor of Gordon's contention
' and It Is expected that an attempt will
now be made to block further inquiry.
As County Commissioner Barnes has
not yet had opportunity to Inspect the
renort of J. W. Ferguson, the exDert
employed by thev county court o check
over tne accounts or county orriciais,
Its contents are still officially a secret.
But It is known that It contains nothing
sencmional, merely caning attention to
the fees In citizenship cases retained by
uounty cierK fields, ana tne ract tnat
he draws interest on. money deposited
in litigated cases in the county and
circuit courts.
County Clerk Fields also has In his
charge money paid into cqurt in probate
cases, but this he does not draw inter
est on. By some it is contended that
this should be. turned Into the treasury,
but this I a matter In which the county
directly has ne Interest. The question
there is between the persons who de
posit the money, which is gradually re
duced in amount as it Is checked
against, and the county clerk.
In the case of citizenship papers the
county clerk keeps one milf the fees.
The United States law,, which Imposes
the duty of Issuing the papers, provides
that one half be turned nver to the
government and the other half retained
by the county clerk. Mr. Fields con
tends that he has a right to retain these
fees for his personal benefit, as the
work is Imposed by an outside author
ity, and not by the county. Oth-rs hold
that his half should go into the treas
ury:
During his term of office about $2000
naa come into nis hands from citizen
ship fees.
Ilarrlman'a agents are in Portland
making preparations for their defense
against the dissolution suit brought by
the government against the Harrtman
lines which 14 to be commenced before
Referee Sylvester . Williams In the
federal court here. May 3. On the heola
of the representatives of Harriman are
a awarm of Hill detectives, watching
every movement made by the rival cor
porate Interests and keeping the wlrea
hot sending news or developments to
their chief.
Thoae railroads which the government
consider to be the property of Harri
mnn are given in the bill of complaint
which has been filed with Federal Cir
cuit Clerk Cannon. The following are
named an defendants: Union Pacific,
Oregon Short Line, Oregon Railroad &
Navigation company, San Pedro, Los
Angeles & Salt Lake railroad, Atchison,
Topeka A Santa Fe. Southern Pacific,
Northern Pacific, Great NorO1"""- Farm
era Loan & Trust company, Edward H.
Harriman. Jacob H. Bchlff, Otto H.
Kalin, James Stlllman. Henry H. Rogers,
Henry C. Frlck. William A. Clark. t
Blow at Satire System.
The government's object in bringing
the suit Is not only to compel the Har
riman Interests to relinquish the con
trol of the Union Pacific, which avoids
competition between the Great North
ern and the Union Pacific, but to com
pel a similar giving up of control of
everv Harriman line running parallel to
any other line of the same ownership,
by which ownership trade and com
merce is restricted and competition de
stroyed. The success of the suit means
the overthrow of the entire Harriman
system, which at present, with its con
necting lines, girdles the United States.
Much history Is contained within the
bill of complaint filed with the federal
Circuit clerk by C. A. Severance, special
renresentatlve or the United Btates at
torney general. The transfer of 800,000
shares of stock in 191. by which Har
riman made the Union Pacific and the
Southern Pacific practically continua
tions of each other under the same con
trol la pvnl.n1nii in detail. The devious
methods used in transferring this stock
from one brokerage rlrm to anoiner ana
flnallv tn, SchlfT & Knhn in New York.
at that time the chosen manipulators of
Harriman schemes, are careruuy noiea.
An amnzlnar knowledge of the agents
Harriman has employed, the plans o
has made, and even of ' his supposed
most secret thoughts Is displayed. The
weak points In the chain are named and
the ability of the government to show
that thesie weak places are fatal to a
continuation of the Harriman monopoly,
is stated to be a. thing assured. V

SMUGGLERS OFFER
$250,000 HUSH MONEY
New York Aprll 29. The smuggling
syndicate that first offered Collector of
the Port Loeb $100,000 to drop the gov
ernment's . Investigation of the smug
gling of "sleeper" trunks containing
166.000 worth of Paris lowm has in.
creased lta,offer to 260.000, according
to ixieo.
"The amount now offered the iv.
eminent to drop the Investigation and
prtniable prosecution is 1260.000," said
Mr. Loeb. "The amount represents what
would be the Densities .of fullv f 2nn Dim
above the appraised vslue of -ihm goods.

It is believed thst worry over this
case so affected the mind of William

the I'nited States treasury department
In Paris, that he committed suicide.
The treasury department had fully ap
proved Mr. Balnbrldge's course In the

was tha victim of a plot.
Loeb's Investigation shows the smug
gled gowna had been made In Paris
by famous designers for manv wnm-n
of social prominence and wealth In New
York, Boston, Philadelphia and Wash
ington and thst the reason for offer
ing such a large sum to autioreas the
Investigation was to shield the women
from unpleasant publicity.

should no longer be allowed to remain
in non-competitive proximity. The sup
posed fierce competition between the
Santa Ife and Union Pacific between
Kansas City and Denver is called a
farce, as these roads only seemingly
are In a bitter fight for the supremacy
of trade and In reality are working quiet
ly and surely for extremely profitable
freight rates, while allowing cuts in
comparatively unprofitable passenger
rates for the sake of appearances.
Like conditions are declared to exist
in the relation of the Southern Pacific
to the Pan Pedro, loa Angeles & Salt
Lake lines, and the like reasons named
why the merger of these lines should be
declared Illegal and no longer to be per
mitted.
Government action against the Har
riman lines was commenced in Utah.
January 28, 108. Tjie. final alleged
merging of the Harriman lines had oc
curred January 1, 1908. Since that
time, and berore, as it seems tnat the
merger had . been anticipated on the
part of the ' governmertt officers, evi
dence has been opllected to show the
ultimate object of the merger was the
destruction of competition aim me re
striction of trade.
With all possible secrecy witnesses
to appear before Referee Williams in
Portland on May 3,. are being sub
poenaed. Actively Interested in .the
summoning of witnesses are Glen K.
Heusted, a Harriman attorney from De
troit, and special agent, Ralph McKen
zle of the department of Justice. Many
other witnesses who have had dealings
with the Harriman lines in the -ca
pacity of officials or patrons are be
ing summoned, and among these are
several well known Portlanders.

Frightened by the evidence of
strength being shown among the mats
of the voters of the city by A. O. Rush
light in his candidacy for the Repub
lican nomination for mayor, the friends
of Senator Simon are now beginning to
deny almost everything. They say that
the Baker theatre convention waa not
framed up for the nomination of Simon,
but that the friends of the senator ''got
away with the frame uo.
They contend that the central com
mitiee at tne oeginntng rramea tne con
vention for the nomination of F. K.
Beach, but that the plan fell down, and
It then i swung to Dr. j. r. wetherbee.
The Wetherbee boom then burst and
the convention managers then got in
behind C. W. Hodaon. but that they
wore not careful In the selection f the
delegates and the convention 'got
away" and stampeded to Simon. There
fore, they contend that the convention
was not "framed" for Simon, because
the friends of Simon broke the slate."
It la also denied that Senator Simon
is opposed to the direct primary law.
It Is being said that he Is not only a
direct primary law man, but that he' Is
in reality a Statement No. 1 man and
waa near to becoming a candidate for
the United States senate on a Statement
No. 1 platform during the campaign of
June last. .
Deny Any Organisation.
It is also denied by the friends of
the senator that he ia perfecting any
organization. In fact, it is said that
he is putting a damper on the formation
of an organization to work for hla nom
ination. In other 'words it ia beina- ars-ued
that Senator Simon does not care
wnether he is nominated or whether he
is defeated for the nomination. "He
would rather not be mavor than to
hold the office," his friends say. and Is
therefore making no great effort to
win the nomination. At any rate, they
contend, the story of his opposition to
the direct primary law and to. State
ment No. 1 and hla predilection for or
ganization Is all a dream.
All of which goes to show that the
support which ra coming to the Rush
light camp because of the firm stand
taken by that candidate for the prin
ciples of the direct primary law and in
opposition to corporate dictation of city
affairs is causing great . uneasiness
among the followers of Senator Simon.
Myars WUI Not Boa.
Jefferson Myers, who was mentioned
prominently as a candidate for the
Democratic nomination, has decided that
he cannot enter Into the contest for the
reason that he has not been a resident
of (the city for, six years, as la required
In the city charter. Mr. Myers believes
that with the firm supoprt of the Dem
ocratic voters of the city and those of
his friends of the . opposite political
faith he would be able to make a
good showing, but Is nevertheless out
of the contest because of the residence
requirement of the city charter.
John H. Stevenson is now being be
sought by the Democrats who have
been, looking for a leader, to become the
Democratic candidate. Mr. Stevenson I
is a well-known young attornev of the
city, who has long been a resident of
Portland. Before being admitted to the
bar he was a political writer for one of
the local papers and it is being urged
that because of this fact he is nossessed
of unlimited "dope" which he could use
to great advantage In behalf of his
campaign.
Mr. Stevenson, however, has not as
yet said that he would become a candi
date, holding to the belief that he Is
too young a man to try for an office
encumbered with such heavy burdens.

should be borne in mind that the
action of a cold tends to leave the
respiratory organ sore, and thus

often have their origin In neglect it

taken to check. It at once.

"For some time I have ben a suf
ferer from rheumatism. It finally b-
tame so bsd that I could not sleep at
c gbt, tn) 1 i seltuig worse rtry
day, despite the fact "that I was using,
various remedies that had been rec-i
ommended to me. '
"One evening I happened to notice i
in the Topeka papers art article about -the
preparations Mr. Cooper was in
troducing in that city, and although I ,
was skeptical of results, I decided to
give them a trial.
"I went to iff. Cooper's headqtiar-
ters and bought a bottle of the New
Discovery medicine. It seemed to
help me from the start, and within a
week I was feelinjf like a differe.ri-!
man. Its continued use has relieved i
me of rheumatism a lid my sleep is i
now sound and restfuL I am feeling '
better in every way.
My wife also used the New Dis-
covery with very beneficial results for
kidney trouble and nervousnes. Fre
quently while handling the dishes her ,
arnt would give a jerk and the dishes .
would fall to the floor and break. She '
could not rest weU at night. She had '
severe pains across her back and felt '
weak and exhausted all the time. . - '
After taking Cooper's New -Dis
covery a short time her nerves were '
wonderfully quieted and strengthened.
. i - . . . . r .
tne pain in ner back subsided, she
slept more soundly and felt much im
proved in every way. The New
covery did her more good than
medicine she had ever taken.
"Cooper's New Discovery is the
first medicine I have ever used that s
has done exactly as claimed and I can "
honestry recommend it to others." K
