- Mr. Veatch, the Democratic
candidate in the First District,
personally urging and permitting
the Democratic newspapers in
support of him to attack his op
ponent, Mr. Hermann, for irregu-
' larities while the latter was in the
" public land office.
The views of the different fac-
. tions in the Democratic nartv are
. so different, oftimes directly op
. posed, that during political cam
paigns Democratic managers re-
fuse on all occasions, to discuss
principles, oecause, rue .Demo
cratic party has no definitely de
fined principles to discuss. Mr.
Veatch is one of his party who
has held views obnoxious to a
large majority of the members
of the Democratic party. Mr.
Veatch dare not discuss his politi-
t J ll" . t
cai ami popuiisuc views in iuc
campaign, because, if he did he
would drive all conservative Dem
oearts against him; consequent
ly, he has formulated a series of
attacks against the personal char
acter and integrity of his oppo
nent, Mr. Hermann.
There is no one, no matter how
strenuously they oppose Mr. Her
rmann, but who acknowledges
without question that Mr. Her
mann has been the most efficient
member that Oregon has ever
liad in Congress, and that he has
"procured for Oregon more bene
ficial results than any other rep
resentative. Mr. Veatch, there
fore, is proceeding with a series
of misreoresentations accusing
A. O
-Mr. Hermann of wrong because
?he became out of harmony under
? his principal in the land office,
'but the lack of harmony was oc
casioned more than anything be
- cause the superior officer, Mr.
Hancock, did not understand the
; people, or the nature of the lands,
or their proper available use in
On the contrary, Mr. Her
rmann's home is in Oregon and
' he understood perfectly these dif
i ficult questions and so directed
his coaduct and recommendations
as to protect the good people of
Oregon. Neither the secretary
-of the land office, or any of his
subordinotes, has ever intimated
either directly or indirectly that
there was any wrong intent, or
of purpose, in the acts of Mr.
Hermann in his conduct ot the
'iienerai iana umce. On the
contrary, it was Mr. Hermann
who started the investgation as
to the Benson and Hyde frauds,
now being tried in San Francisco.
It was Mr. Hermann's own mo
tion that all the land entries were
suspended in which the names of
Benson and Hyde were mention-
-ea ana tnereoy prevented issuance
of patents theron, and those en
teries are all suspended today wait
ing the result of pending investi-

gations. In all of Mr. Her
mann's annual reports he urged
strenuously upon Congress to re
peal or modify the law which
permitted so mnch unjust advan
tage and grafting on the govern
ment in forest lieu lands, selec
tions whereby worthless r lands
were conveyed to the government
and so called script locations
made of the most ' valuable tim
ber lands in the country. Many
times in the last session of Con
gress, Mr. Hermann rose in his
place and publicly denounced the
law, and urged action of Congress
to so modify it as to protect - the
public domain. During Mr. Her
mann's whole career in Congress,
and especially while Commission
er of the General Xand Office,
he devoted his best energies for
protection of, the honest settler
on the public domain and against
the corporations and script graft
ers who are grabbing all the valu-
able lands fit for home-seekers. It
was made very apparent in the last
Congress by some revelations
made, that the unusual cry of
land fraud has been industiously
circulated by corporations, exten
sive land owners and fraudulent
land grabbers, for the purpose of
repealing public land laws and
preventing the proper amendment
thereof, so that their own lands
would appreciate in value by rea
son of diminished sales of public
lands. From this the public can
readily understand the existence
of the motive for so much exag
geration of land frauds and the
attempt to involve and besmear
the good name of" public officials
who uphold protectionjof the hon
est settler and save the public do
main. The testimony of Mr.
Maxwell before one of the pub
lic land committees of Congress
two months ago admitted that
various companies contributed to
his association, which advocated
the repeal of those laws, $5000
each, making $50,000 a year, so
to bring influence largely along
the lines of making the laws so
as to admit advantages to the land
grabber and to the disadvantages
of the home-buider and the honest
home-seeker. When the people
consider Mr. Hermann's attitude
according to the facts and that his
life has been spent to promote
the welfare of the common peo
ple and during his term in the
General Land Office, pitted against
the aggressions ot the corpora
tions and land grabbers and op
posing their efforts, it is plain to
see how these same corporations,
their emissaries and fraudulent
land grabbers have availed them
selves of an- opportunity to cry
fraud against Mr. Hermann, and
it is certainly unfortunate for the
interests of Mr. Veatch that he is
lending his efforts to :' wrongfully
accuse so honest, upright and
beneficial public official as Mr.
Hermann who has always served
most efficiently the people as Con
gressman and public official in
the General Land Office. .
