THE OREGON SUNDAY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, SUNDAY MORNING ; FEBRUARY 13 1910. ECHOES OF DAYS OF ROOSEVEt J A VQ D Letter of Acting Director', of Reclamation Department Is 1 Given Publicity y in faffs . Corrected Message. '' (Wuhlnilon Burtu of Ttas Journal.) v Washington, Keb, 1. An echo from ; the Roossvelt days la sounded in ths , publication of the president's' Glavls message to the sonata, transmitting oer ... tain corrections of. his former message which was sent in response to the Flint . resolution. The president had Answered the request of t resolution, sending Secretary ; Balllnger's ; report , to him, .presumably complete. An Important . letter had been omitted however.,v . It was from A. P. Davis, acting dlreotor In-lieu of Director Newell and was writ . ten before there had appeared so many ' signs that the Roosevelt conservation .''policies were becoming, obsolete under the new administration - . Davis' letter .was In- response to - letter from Secretary Balllnger, who as early as April. 1, 1900. less than-on month after he became secretary of the Interior, had prepared to restore to pub llo entry all lands withdrawn by Roose velt, and Uarfleld to protect the power Sites. ,; .":,-.. '. - - r . . The reclamation service -under Newell ' was against restoring the power site lands before examination; had, been made In the field to determine what . . lands were not . needed to protect the sites... The Balllnger policy so soon In . evidence was to restore the lands on the ground that their . withdrawal had been Illegal:' . . i v Davis Writes 'IiSUer.V'V The reclamation sendee through Act- lng Director Davis thus answered Bal llnger's letter: (,-r-, ;r o, ' ."I am In . receipt ' of your letter of .April . 1, 'giving instructions to report - the reasons, if there are any, why cer tain lands Jn' the states of , Montana, .Utah and Oregon should not be restored to entry under the public land laws. " "The area of (77,000 acres mentioned In your letter is probably, the total area Aft t h A tAwnahlni atA Innsi nu ntvt In the various lists. . A large portion ofj . each of these townships , has already! , passed out of the control of the United . States, and the withdrawal, would not affect lands where title had already fbeen Initiated. ,-,, , v ,' , - "In. making these withdrawals It Is understood ".. to ave been the " policy -to make examinations as early as possible wth the purpose of restoring the major portions of . the lands, after reserving areas which 'include natural falls, dam I sites or other natural opportunities for the cheap development of power. , To. Check iyndlcates. ' i "These lands were withdrawn . by order of Secretary, Garfield,' In accord anoe with a policy adopted by the cabi net of President Roosevelt for the pur- ' pose of checking the acquisition of valu 1 able power sites In' the mountain re glons of the west by. syndicates which i were believed to be attempting to mo- nopollre all the avallabla power possl- , iiiueg in certain regions; ' t "That such attempts at power, mo nopoly are being; actively i and exten sively made seems to be well estab lished, but whether It can be presented or materially checked by executive ac tion undor present laws Is a Question , Involving points of law and of adminis trative policy upon which this office Is not competent to advise." . . , Beolamatloa Berrloo loses power. " The reclamation service was commit ' ted to the Roosevelt policy as to power sites; hence the geological survey was . selected by Secretary Balllnger to han . die the matter, and It was taken en tirely away from the reclamation serv Ice, which from rthat time, on was as signed no function therein by the Taft , administration. It was on the power alto 'question , that tho Taft administration . most sharply broke away from the Roosevelt V( policies, as expressed by tho Outlook, I '. the magazine of which Roosevelt Is a contributing editor, which said re - oently; - - - . ... - i "The Roosevelt policy appears to hava been,? when learning that some ! vital act .was essential to the public . guoa, io inquire, js mere , any law prohibiting this good thlngr while the Tart policy appears to be to lnauira. 'Is, there any law; commanding me to do this: thing?' and then ; throw the , wnoie matter onto congress." RAILROADS MUST ' ,T IMPROVE CONDITIONS . ' - ' loiiBui Aurvao ui. mi journal.) alem. Or..

The subject Is -under discussion because two young men of the "Imperial lamuy, Frinca Frederick Henry of Prua sla and Prince Joachim Albert of Prus sla, have announced their intention of selling the palace of which ' they are Jolpt, owners, at public auction. The palace la a noble building, situated In tho Wilhelra strasse, and standing In Its own grounds, extending over'an area of two or tnree acres.

After this episode he left Ger many and has subsequently resided In Egypt and Italy. I Prince Joachim Albert was the hero In the romantic story which startled the world, a couple of years ago, when' his name wax coupled with that of a Ger man actr ns, Miss Mary Sulzer. Prince Joachim Albert had an affair with Miss Sulxer. and - this gave rifle to unpleas ant comment, not so much on the merit I of the case as owing to the factvthstj Miss Hulxer. was or plebeian Dlrtn. n she had been a noble, society would nave pardoned, the prlnoe'a youthful folly. Prince Joachim Albert recognising this fact ' conceived the Idea of trans forming Miss Sulser Into a full blown baroness by persuading some Impecuni ous aristocrat .to make -. her, his wife without claiming any of the rights of matrimony.. His agents found a, young Austrian nobleman of fallen fortunes, Baron. Liebenberg, who was .willing to sell his name to dishonor for 10,000 kronen, and tie was . engaged for, this purpose.
