Washington, May 7. -Roosevelt's pol icy of conservation was on trial today when the cabinet, probably for the first time since the civil war, listened to a discussion of a difference of opinion between two of Its members. Secretary Ballinger and Secretary Wilson, who clashed recently over Interpretation of the land laws concerning Ihe withdraw al from entry of public lands, were the principals and President Taft heard their statements in compliance with their request that he settle the dispute. Gifford Pinchot. chief forester, pre cipitated the clash when lie had Secre tary Wilson ask Secretary Balllnger to withdraw certain land In the west to be used us stations for his forest rangers.. Balllnger refused to grant the request, saying such action would he illegal. Wilson denied It was Illegal, jind resent ed the Imputation of unfairness. Both secretaries then Innt- their fmuhlA.a to President Taft. who toil them to pre-j pare statements ror presentation at to day's cabinet meeting. The president's verdict will have a bearing of the utmost importance upon the future policy of the administration In regard to the public lands. President TRft Is expected to ask the members of the cabinet, including At torney Qeneral Wickeraliam to give him written opinions on the case before he makes a decision. Balllnger and Wilson both carried large bundles of documents when they entered the cabinet room. Regarding the particular Issue be tween the secretaries as to whether ranger sites mav be withdrawn from entry at the request of the forest serv ice, Hainnger holds that the forestry appropriation act of 1907 prohibits addi tions being made to reserves, or the cre ation of new reserves 'n the seven northwestern states where the sites were requested. v llson is reported to have nrmied that the refusal of his request Is op posed by years of custom. He Is also quoted as admitting that the sites with drawn hy the last administration were really wanted er conservation purposes. The w ithdrawals, he is mipposed to have said, were made in accordance with a prearranged plan by himself. President Roosevelt and Secretary Garfield. This plan was the result of information that water power monopolies were about to grab the lands and that this was the quickest way to act.

Morgan, buyer for Morgan-Atchley Furniture Co., left for Chicago yesterday to buy from ten to filteen thousand dollars worth of chairs. There will be no complaint that these Eastern chairs are being sold too high. If Portland can have factory-fixed prices on dining chairs it can have the same on other lines. Unless a quietus is put on these new trust methods the public stands in imminent danger of waking up some fine morning and finding itself where it was two or three years ago, of finding it optional of paying one dealer a big price for furniture, or of paying another dealer a large price, or another an exorbitant price. With competition destroyed, the spirit of greed becomes dominant. Apparently no other furniture house desires competitive methods to prevail. At least our $10 reward for proof that any other dealer refused to sign an agreement with the Oregon Chair Co. to be governed by its minimum price. schedule has not been claimed. It requires much courage to buck a trust movement having behind it the combined strength of all Portland furniture houses, but the principle involved inspires man's noblest impulse, and the consciousness of being on the right side of this fight gives us strength. It is far from pleasant to have hurled at us abuse and misrepresentation, to have our motives impugned, and the other javelin thrusts that fall to the lot of those who attack the strongholds of any trust, but what else can we do? It is either fightpr surrender and it has never been our policy to surrender principles of honor. Others Pay Rent, We Collect Rent. Who Can Sell the Cheapest I We have been accused of misrepresenting conditions in the use of the above slogan because there is a mortgage on the building. All big business men extend their capi tal and increase their earnings by en gaging the surplus capital that is ever seeking investment. A man with a mil lion dollars who can build an office building that will pay him fifteen or twenty per cent does not put all his coin in the building. He can borrow at five and six per cent and thereby put his money into other buildings and accom plish three times as much with his capi tal. While our Furniture Store occupies the best portion of our building, a the same time the rest of the building yields 0165 63 i """l j 1 1 i te V CORNER EL STARK 0 Din!DDTIBtEl jbh r n n n n n n r , i an income of $6000 a year, six per cent on $100,000. In other words it pays the interest on all the owner's money as well as the bor rowed capital invested in it. The $25, 000 quarter block just purchased on the opposite corner for our new furniture building is mortgage free. The quarter block on another corner of the same streets, East Stark and Grand Ave., Mr. Morgan and others have purchased and have' a deposit up on same. All this is property that will double in value in a few years. Wouldn't a man be foolish to not engage some of the capital seek ing investment and extend his own under such conditions. Only financial' novices would be silly1 enough to ques tion the truthfulness" of our slogan. 1 t-" - 1- 4
