Twister" Struck Ranch.
Eugene, Or., Oct. 21. A freak storm
struck the ranch of Bruce L. Bogart,
on the McKenzie river north of Eu
gene, Sunday night. It appeared Id
the form of a cyclone, although it was
entirely local in character. A hop
house was blown down, the residence
was lifted partly off its foundation, a
chicken house was wrecked, many
fowls killed, oak trees were broken
off, and a large number of fruit trees
in an orchard were uprooted. Farmer
living nearby say that there was little
wiiiu vu uieir places uuring ine prog
ress or this storm.
Ronald C. Glover of Salem has sent
to The Journal the following reply to
a statement from S. A. Easterday. re
cently published, regarding a measure
proposed by Congressman Hawley:
S. A. Easterday takes exception to
an amendment proposed by Represen
tative Hawley to a pending bill relat
ing to Alaska coal lands, wherein Mr.
Hawley proposes that the attorney
general of the United States, individ
ual locators or other interested parties
be permitted to take matters of dif
ference into the local federal court. by
a suit in equity to quiet title, with
the right of appeal to the higher fed
eral courts. In submitting his amend
ment. Mr. Hawley stated that sorm
citizens of Oregon, having small indi
vidual holdings, and desiring some ac
tion taken on their cases after they
had been pending so long, and so hope
lessly tangled proposed some such ac
tion as he then laid before the house.
This was not the first time Mr.
Hawley had proposed the right of an
entryman to appeal his case to the
federal courts. He was among the
first to advocate this, and on Febru
ary 27, 1912, he addressed the house of
representatives in support of a bill he
then had pending providing such right
of appeal.
He then pointed out that under the
present practice, the department of the
interior was Judge, jury, prosecutor,
witness, and everything else except
the defendant, which fell to the lot of
the entryman. He showed that star
chamber methods were used in the de
cision of pending land cases, and that
unswoj-ir confidential or "secret"- re
ports of special agents were consid
ered In pressing: cases against entry
men. Mr. Hawley contended that there
should be no such things as "secret"
reports; that the entryman was en
titled to be fullv advised of the
charges against him and his entry, and
that such charges should be sworn to
so that the person making them could
be Droceeded against if they were
false or malicious, and that if he felt
aggrieved at the action of the depart
ment he should have the right of ap
peal to the federal court in which the
land was situated, that he might lo
cally secure witnesses In his behalf
and make his case that could later go
to the higher. courts on appeal. Many
entrymen have desired this relief,
and many members of congress now
favor iC
On March 20. 1914, Mr. Hawley
again spoke before the house of repre
sentatives in favor of such a law, and
has continued to hammer away at it
since as opportunity offered.
In order to secure the passage of
such a law Mr. Hawley must seek a
favorable opportunity. It occurred on
September 5, 1914, and he arose and
proposed his amendment for the right
of appeal to the federal courts, and
stated frankly the purpose of his
amendment.
The record shows that a number of
members favored some such amend
ment, and many of them were in favor
of the principle of the amendment,
but others among them Representative
Bryan of the state of Washington,
opposed the amendment of Mr. Haw
ley. not on the principle involved, but
were, fearful that if applied to the
coal land cases it would revive cer
tain coal cases in- Alaska that Mr.
Hawley and other supporters of the
amendment had supposed were can
celed and could not be revived.
When Mr. Hawley learned that there
was some doubt of this, he immedi
ately arose, disclaimed any intention
of reviving objectionable claims, and
astced unanimous consent to withdraw
the amendment he offered. Represen
tative Bryan then stated: "I am glad
to hear the gentleman from Oregon
make that statement, which clears hia
record entirely in the matter, and
shows his position." Mr. Hawley, having-
withdrawn his support of the
amendment, it was then promptly re
jected.
Mr. Easterdav does not give this
fair statement of the case, but dis
torts the facts, and draws on his fe
vered imagination and makes a great
snow by telling the people to read the
Congressional Record of September 5.
1914, well knowing that but few of
them could get access to it, and would
probably take so,me stock in his state
ments without investigating. Fortu
nately I secured access to the record
in the Salem Public library.

an average of $4304.12 for each month

accrued from the Initiative pamphlet

ready for the mail, was approximate
ly $5890," the state printer asserts.

by the old law, and the difference in
cost, under the present law. in the
taxpayer's favor, is shown," says Mr
Harris.
