Senator Walsh 8urerta Flan. 4 Penator Thomas J. Walsh or Mon- tana offered an amendment providing that each delegation should select Its own representative on the committee. t "While the chairman probably Is "more or less familiar with the dclega- tions.'' snid Seiialur Walsh, "it is but ' natural to suppose that he could not , make as wise a selection as the dele- gatlons themselves. This Is the prac tice In nearly all national political con tentions and in civic organizations for that matter. To have the delegations 'name their representative on the com tmlttee Is leaving the matter nearer the source ot power- tlie people." i Senator Bmoot Disagrees. Senator Kmoot iilckly made reply. 4 "I see no reason why the chairman should not name thin committee," he I said. Pointing out that the chairman bed been authorized to appoint ti e committee on credentials and order t.f business, he said there should be no change In proceduin with tlie resolu tions committee, lie asked why Sen "ator Walsh had not made his views on the question of appointment before this time. "1 would have made my sungeti')ris before," replied .Senator Walsh, "if 1 bad known a resolutions committee was to be appointed now. 1 am lavorud with a program prepared by the Cham ber of Commerce and I seo no provis ion for the appointment of a resolu- ' tlons committee at this time. This conference can do no more than to de- bate the Issues before us and pass reso - lutlons. It Is very well to leave the appointment of the two minor com mittees to the chairman, but the ap pointment of the all Important com mittee on resolutions should be made by the delegates. Senator Smoot then argued that It made no difference who were the mem bera of the resolutions committee as the convention "will vote the resolutions up ' or vote them down" as it sees fit. XJstar Supports Walsh. Oovernor Lister supported Walsh's amendment. ; "It must be assumed that the dele- gates know best the member who is v moat fitted to serve on the committee," i he said. "They know better than the f chairman can possibly know." Kdgar B. Piper moved s a substitute that the method of selecting the mem bers of the committee be referred to 'the committee on order of business . '. tor be included in Its report. Clyde C. Dawson seconded the motion, which was " carried. Governor Welcomes Delegates.

Governor 4 Withycombe struck the first note In J opposition to the Kerris water power , bill, winch has drawn the lire of the water power interests and otliers who t are opposed to any form of govern ""mental regulation of water power.

"Tou well know the numerical im potence of our sparse representation In congress. None can say we of the west have real opportunity to wield any appreciable power In connection with possible adjustments of federal regulation of our economic develop ments. As matters stand what we get, practically speaking, will be sole ly by the grace of the members from the eastern states, many of whose con stituents, having utilized their own natural resources In years gone by, consider it little short of criminal that we should even consider trans forming our streams into wealth, our forests Into payrolls, and our vacant lands into producing farms. Broadly speaking, our 18 western states will face the dubious privilege of taxation without representation and that phrase should at least strike a chord of sympathy in those 13 other states whose rallying cry it became at our nation's birth." Oovernor Xiister Responds. Responding to the address of wel come, Governor Lister of Washington declared that a spirit of compromise must prevail In the deliberations of the conference or nothing could be accom plished, lie said extreme difference in opinion in the past has been the cause of retarding development. "i hope we shall decide unanimously on some line that will bring us to gether for the development of the west," he said. ."We will not get .to gether If each one of us is going to Insist on our views prevailing. The spirit of compromise must prevail." While waiting for the commit tee on order of business and permanent organization to report, the conference voted in favor of proceed ing with the program of set speeches, and Clyde C. Dawson of Denver fired the opening centimeter gun at govern mental regulation in general and the Ferris bill in particular. Following his speech a recess was taken until 2 o'clock this afternoon. First Compromise Announced. The committee on order of business was ready to report when the Tionfer erice reconvened this afternoon. The committee reported a compromise on the manner of selecting the members of the resolutions committee. The re port said: "We recommend that the chairman appoint a committee on resolutions, said committee to consist of one dele gate in attendance from each state, the members of said committee to be se lected and appointed by the chairman nion recommendation of the delega tions from each state." The, committee recommended that the temporary organization be made permanent. Its recommendations re lating to resolutions wero as follows: Recommendations Submitted, "We recommend that all resolutions be Introduced before 4 o'clock p. m. Wednesday, SeptemKer "2, 1915, and be Immediately read and referred to the resolutions committee without de bate, and that no resolution be re ceived by this conference after 4 o'clock September 2-, I'.iIj, except It lie offered by the resolutions commit tee, and that no resolution be acted upon until it has been considered and reported by the resolutions committee. "We recommend that the resolutions committee render i's report at the close of the general debate following the announced program, and that such report be made not later than noon of Thursday, "September 2'i, 1 'J 1 5 . " The committee recommenced that at the conclusion of the set program all delegates and invited speakers and guests, to whom the courtesies of the floor be extended, be permitted to de bate the matters before the conference, and to reply to any speech that has been made, each speaker to be limited to 16 minutes. 4 Limited to One Tote. Anothef recommendation is that the vote on all questions be by delegations, each delegation to have one vote. A telegram was read from Key Pitt- man, of Tonopah, Nev., who was ap pointed a delegate, but was unable to come. In part he said: "I approve the general plan of the Ferris bill as amended In the senate committee. The bill still requires some amendment, which will no doubt be added by the senate. The only alterna tives are state control or the Ferris bill, in view of southern and eastern sentiment, state control Is Impossible of accomplishment. The present con trol by the forest service under revoc able permits, is not only Impracticable but Intolerable. As oetween the al ternatives the Ferris bill offers a prop osition upon which capital can be raised and development accomplished. I trust the conference will view the matter from a practical standpoint and not from that of an idealist. You have my best wishes in your splendid ef forts." U. S.

This is due to the fact that we started early, and have 250,000 horsepower developed. Since 1904 hydro-electric power has been used In the mines at Butte, we have one com mercial road run by electric power, nnd plans are under way for the elec trification of 400 miles of the Milwau kee railroad There Is also large de mand for pumping purposes for Irriga tion of arid lands. Would Assist Development. "There is the most earnest desire on the part of the people of the state to permit the development of water resources In government lands, and we are here for the purpose of trying to assist In bringing about that result. "As to the 60-year clause in tho Ferris bill, which has been the subject of attack as not providing sufficient tenure, the criticism is refuted by the facts. There is no uncertainty as to tenure, and the time is ample. Fran chises for street railways, for instance, are ordinarily granted for periods of 20 or 30 years.

Who the Delegates Are Here -are brief sketches of some of the delegates from other states, who have arrived for the water power con ference: . Colorado. George K. West Is a representative In the Colorado legislature from Du rango. He has been engaged In the construction of the Pine River Bay field Ditch irrigation project, and is reported to have imbibed strong ideas is opposition to federal control. A. P. Ardourel was a member of the last legislature and once was a coal miner, though now a friend of Gov ernor Carlson and the "law and order" contingent. He Is one of two Demo crats or the Colorado delegation, and is a resident of Boulder county, in which county the Colorado Power com pany "has large interests. This com pany is involved in litigation with the government because or its refusal to pay rental for rights of way over cer tain forest reserve lands, claiming to have had title to the right-of-way be fore the forest reserve was established. Mr. Ardourel comes from a section where the clash between the state and the federal Ideas is especially bitter. Idaho. Governor Moses Alexander of Idaho, is a merchant, with a string of stores in Idaho and Oregon. He bears the distinction of being the only Jew ever elected to a governorship. He Is a Democrat in politics and has been al lied with the progressive element In state affairs. One of the delegates who has been talking energetically against the Fer ris bill for several weeks is ex-Governor James H. Hawley of Idaho. He is one of the leading attorneys of the state, and in that capacity has repre sented extensive power Interests. He gave strong utterance to his views at the governors' conference in Boston a few weeks ago. Several distinctions are combined In John W. Hart of Menan, Idaho, who is a member of the Republican na tional committee from that state, a former member of the state senate, vice president of the C. A. Smith Mer cantile company, and Is interested in several other business enterprises. He is also a Mormon. I. W. Rockwell of Belloue Is a state senator, and has extensive business interests, including ownership of an electric plant. Fred W. Berger has an Idaho town named for him, and lives there. He is a farmer. Montana. United States Senator Thomas J. Walsh heads the Montana contingent, the one delegation that stands solidly lie lands appeared numerous gentle men anxious to prove that there is a great power trust. I would not be sur prised if that is so, and if there is. It hasunder control the private power interests. And ir it aoes exist, it seems to me best to develop powers on the public domain, that will bring about competition. "I do not exactly see the relevancy of this discussion of the reported power trust, but on the other hand a lot of gentlemen appeared before the committee to dispute the existence of such a trust and I find that somebody has been active in circulating that por tion of the testimony intended to show that there is no power trust.

He is one of the progres siva Democrats who have followed the lead of President Wilson in the senate, and occupies a prominent part in the party councils in Washington. J. B. Collins comes from Miles City, Mont., where he is head of the Collins Land company, and Is secretary of the Miles City Canal & Irrigation com pany. He is a member of the legisla ture, and has been active in politics aa a Democrat. Sam. D. Ooza comes from Helena, and has long been active in public af fairs. He is a representative in the legislature and a prominent insurance man. He is a Progressive in politico. Formerly a district judge of the state, J. E. Erickson is now engaged in the practice of law at Kalispell, Mont. Titan. Governor William Spry, chairman of the conference, made a veto record rarely equaled last winter in kiflins off progressive measures passed by the legislature. He vetoed a public service commission bill, a prohibition bill, and other enactments common to most of the other western states. He has been a prominent speaker against federal regulation in meetings he has attended elsewhere. W. D. Beers is state engineer of Utah and especially familiar with irri gation matters. He is a Republican and a Mormon. A. E. Wedgwood is adjutant general of Colorado, and one of Governor Spry'g circle m state affairs. Washing-ton, Governor Ernest Lister heads the Washington delegation. He has made a record as a progressive executive and is well known to the people of Oregon through the visits he has made here. Two other Washington men are State Senators A. H. Imus of Kalama and W. V. Wells of Anacortes. Both are at torneys. Remaining members of the delegation are Phil H. Adams of Ellensburg and M. C. Harris of Hoquiam, members of the lower house of representatives. Adams is a farmer and cattleman, Har ris a real estate dealer. Oovernor Lis ter and Adams are Democrats, the others are Republicans. Other delegates registered today in clude: California A. E. Chandler, member state water board. Colorado Clyde C. Dawson, W. R. F. Mills, Thomas Tongue, David Elliott, North Dakota D. V. Moore, John O. Hanchett. Oregon James Withycombe, W. Lair Thompson, S. B. Huston, E. B. Piper. placing water powers all in state con tiol. That might be a desirable thing, but why take time discussing It? It is not possible to secure It. The rep resentatives of eastern state in con gress are opposed to sucti a plan, and it is not a thing for practical states manship to consider. "There is no question as to this state of opinion-.- We are interested In hav ing water resources developed, and so we believe in working on a plan that has some prospect of early results." Senator "Walsh's eye caught the page of the "Chamber of Commerce News" of September 18, containing a chart of the western states, bearing the cap tion, "Sixty-two per cent of the west err, states tied up," and he expressed surprise that such a misleading chart Victrola Is as suspreme ItioELS as , Morrison Street at Broadway Portland should be disseminated in the name of the Portland Chamber of Commerce. Prepared by Stat Senator Bay. This chart is one reproduced from the Oregonian and prepared by State Senator I. N. Day, which purports to represent by white and shaded area the "locked-up lands" of the west. B low the chart jn the Chamber of Com merce publication la a table purport ing to show the area under federal and private control. Senator Walsh ana lyzed the figures for his own state of Montana, which appear as follows: Land surface area, 93,568,640; publle lands unresrved and unappropriated. 22.237,6b0; national forests, 16,252,154; total in public ownership, 45,927,174; per cent 49.08; total private owner ship, 47,641.466, per cent 50.92. Senator Walsh iointed out that in the acreage thus included In "public ownership" are over 22,000,0u0 acres unreserved and unappropriated, there fore open at this day to entry and not "locked up." Further, the total Included In "public ownership" . covers Indian and military reservations and national parks, the inference being that 7,000,000 acres more of Montana lands contained In such reservations should be opened to entry and made taxable. Declares Repres antatlon Unfair. Senator Walsh was struck by the unfairness of such a presentation of the situation, he said, as it does not at all represent the facts, and is entirely misleading. The criticism made of the Montana figures applies with equal force to all the other states. Hop Crop Less Than Was Expected Oregon Hopgrowers' Association, After Receiving' Reports, States That Out put Not More Than 85,000 Bales. Salem, Or., Sept. 21. The hoppicking season is closed and figures as to the yield have undergone a radical revision. While growers generally had antici pated a falling off. the decrease is much greater than was expected, it is said. The Oregon Hopgrowers' association, which has a membership of 680, today asserted that the entire crop of Ore gon would not be over 85,000 bales. The association has received reports from its members In every section of the state, and all tell the same story of a light yield. Baling Is now in progress through the hop districts, and until It is com pleted, the exact yield will not be known; but the association figures it at between 80,000 and 85.000 bales. It handles the sales end for Its members, and so far not a bale has been sold. Large sums have been paid for pick ing.

Ex-Senator Lafe Young of Iowa, editor of the Des Moines Capital, wants Americans to be Americans. "I am opposed to 'the double barreled type of citizenship," he said, last night in his address at the Chamber of Commerce. "France is entitled to the loyalty of every Frenchman, Germany of every German and Sweden of every Swede," he continued, "but when they come to this country to make their home they owe it to the United States to be loyal to the country of their adoption." As a unifier pf the various peoples Into a homogenous American nation Mr. Young emphasised the need of a common language. "All we ask," he said, "Is for our foreign born citizens to be as loyal to our country as we are, and by learn ing our language they soon learn our customs, our laws and our point of view. Want Them to VOX With Us- "We want them to mix with us and become part of us, for their own good as well as ours." t He said Americans must be one homogenous nation in fact as well a form if the spirit of patriotism is to reach its crest. Mr. Young held that this homo geneity could not exist If foreign lan guages are encouraged In churches catering to this or that foreign ele ment, if newspapers are published in foreign languages, and if former resi dents of other nations divide their loy alty between the land of their birth and the land of their adoption. He declared that the whole European trouble was caused by the insistence by each Balkan state that its own lan guage predominate. This spirit, he said, was fostered by the great Kuro pean powers, with the result that the Balkan states have been In constant turmoil, finally Involving all Kurope. Had a single language been spoken, he declared, the spirit of sympathy would have prevailed Instead of the spirit of hostility and suspicion. One Language Urged. Tn America, he said, the world sees the preservation of civilization, and it is necessary, therefore, that this nation be r.ot divided. One language. Insisted upon as the language of Amer ica, will do more to unify this nation than anything else, he declared. He expressed no preference as to what this language should be whether English, French, German, Swedish or NEED It brings to you the world's best music in all its beauty. There are Victors and Victrolas in great variety of styles from $10 to $300 at all Victor dealers. Victor Talking Machine Co. Camden, N. J, Russian Just so the language be offi cial and general. One language is necessary In Amer ica to have a people that is truly one, he said. "And so far as I am concerned," ho went on, "that language can be the Swedish, or the German, or the French, as well as any other.' Indian tribes speaking the same lan guage never fight," Mr. Young asserted. "You never heard of such a thing," i he said. "Germany never fought a! German speaking nation; France never fought a French speaking people, and ; England has fought English pp'aklnn ' people only twice. That was wncn she j fought the colonies and the United States. ! "If Norway, Sweden and Denmark had one language they would have om government, and be one of the world's most powerful nations." Strong- Army Bsoommended. America must have a strong army and navy, he declared. It will not do to take the initiative In international disarmament. The militaristic nations, the ones that have the big armies and navies, must start the movement. Thei, as they la' down' a gun, we may safely do so, and thus gradually the process will bo worked out. The crux of the whole subject of American patriotism and loyalty he held to be such an Americanism that those who come from abroad to make their homes recognize this as their own country and, in token of this recogni tion, forswear in fact, as well as oath, the ties that hold them to the land of their birth. This means the dropping of their native speech and a real mid sympathetic participation In American life and adoption of American 'intitu tlons. The eighth floor dining room of the Commercial club building was packed with people, the tables having been removed and the big room transluimej into an auditorium.

This attitude of the majority is al ready calling forjih some decided criti cisms from the minority, who came to the conAfrijt? in hope that a full and fair dlaoxsion would allow room for some basis of agreement. Those who favor the Ferris bill are generally taking the position that while dis posed to consider this the proper basis of discussion, since it has been formu lated in congress and received the ap proval of the lower house, they would be glad to hear any suggestions for modification that might be practically considered and at the same time tend to meet the views of those opposing certain features of the bill as now drafted. One of the outside delegates this morning expressed himself as iriuli dissatisfied with the situation caused by the uncompromising attitude of the state control advocates, and remarked: "I had hoped that we might come Sim Its lifelike Mil II & Wffftf 'u tilt ill Victrola XVIII.
