Puter says he is getting money from the applicants whom he represents! 1 say that I have never collected a penny from any person in the land grant litigation, and never will I . .. Is there no difference between Puter and Lafferty? Congress Being DeeeiTod. Congress has been told that Oregon does not want the O. & C. lands sold to settlers l I say Congress has been lied to! The big newspapers are opposed to opening the lands to settlers. ' Both McArthur and Littlefield are opposed to opening the lands to Set tlers! The newspapers are satisfied with either McArthur or Littlefield, but not with Laffertyl James R. Mann, stand-pat leader in Congress, whom I scored to his face, and who wrote a long letter to the Salt Lake Tribune, boosting that arch stand-patter, Reed Smoot for re-election, contributes his boost to Pat McArthur and takes a fling at me as not having the "standing nor In fluence" that McArthur has!' With whom? Mann, of course I But I have my influence with the hundreds of honest Representatives who are trying to serve the people and not the Morgans and the Rockefellers, as Is Mr. Mann! Mr. Mann served the liquor Interests in Congress by speaking and vot ing against the Hobson amendment, while I voted, for it. Mr. Mann served the money trust by working against a genuine rural credit law, while 1 worked for it. Mr. Mann recently offered an amendment to prevent th Postmaster General from Increasing the facilities of the Parcel Post, and McArthur voted with Mr. Mann. Of course Mr. Mann would indorse Mr, McArthur. They are the same kind. Referendum Vote Friday. What will Oregon's verdict be next Friday? - If I win, settlers will get the land, and under a drawing system that will give no greater chance to Puter's applicants or any lawyer's clients than It will give to you I It 1 lose, the nefarious Chamberlain-McArthur bill will pass and tho lands will go to the timber barons for a song! , I-have sent my protests against the Chamberlain-McArthur bill to Speaker Clark and Majority Leader Kitchen Imploring them to hold the bill up until Oregon is heard from Friday. As a result, the bill is being held upl Congress looks to this District for a decision I A graver crisis never confronted the state) If I win, I shall leave for Washington next Saturday to urge the passagi of a special act for opening the lands to Oregon settlers, together with the timber growing thereon, and 1 shall not quit till that end Is accomplished! History Is Cited. A Congress of the past generation tried to protect Oregon 1 " The Supreme Court has upheld the last will and testament of that Con gress! . In 1907 Oregon's Legislature memorialized the President and Congress, to do something to break up the railroad land monopoly In this state! In 191 5 a atate-wlde conference called by Governor Withycora'be,. at Salem, for September 15 and 16, solemnly declared it to be Oregon's desire that these lands be sold to actual settlers strictly in accordance with the terms of the original grant! But now, we Jifld George E. Chamberlain and Pat McArthur urging Con gress to pass a bill for the sale of all the timber on the land to the timber monopolies for cash, and with a provision in the bill that patents shall Issue to the purchasers entitling them to hold and use the land till the timber is all skinned off, which may be 50 years from now or 5000 years from now!, All the big papers are boosting this plan, notwithstanding the fact that it is In the teeth of the original law, the decision of the Supreme Court, tba original memorial of the Oregon Legislature in 1907,, the. resolutions of the ftvt1a tnnfercnee last Sentember and every eomldcrrtlnn if tinnattv decency and humanity!

Of what avail was it for Oregon's Legislature to petition In 1907 to have a railroad land monopoly broken up if we are now to turn the lands oyer, to Weyerhaeuser and other big timber concerns to be held still ss a monopoly? , ' OT jwhat avail was it for George H.
