FCLTOS IS HONE. Junior Senator 'tell How State Fared. United States Senator Fulton reached Portland yesterday morning and re mained In the city daring the day. He was accompanied by Mrs. Fulton, and it was his intention to ro to bis home in Astoria today, says the Ore gonian. The senator is glad to return to Ore gon for a short rest, and as macb va cation as be can crowd in between the hours of his public work, which will pursue him even into his home. He is wearing by the strenuous struggle made for the state's interest during the last session of Congress, and has not for gotten the battle over the Celilo Canal and Columbia River appropriations, nor the various other skirmishes through which he has gone; but in spite of it all he is in waiting for other struggles to come, and has mapped out a cam paign for future sessions. Added ap propriations for river and harbor work, new laws to assist in the irrigation and reclamation schemes f the reclamation department, and general legislation wi'l take up a large part of the time, aod efforts of the junior Senator from the state when be again goes back to his post at Washington. The senator sat in his room at the Imperial yesterday afternoon and gazed thoughtfully at the people in the street below. "I don't know," he began, "that can say anything of interest, that is, anything the people do not already know. Everything I haye been in terested in at the last session has been of such importance to the people of the state that nearly all of the details have befen printed time and again. "It is known to all,'' continued the speaker, "that there was a hard fight over the Celilo Canal appropriation. At first it was the intention of Mr. Bur ton, chairman of the rivers and harbors committee, to leave the canal out of consideration. That was oombatted by Mr. Williamson and myself, and then it was suggested that there would haye to be a cho'c? between the Columbia River jetty and the canal, but neither Mr. Williamson nor myself would agree to this. In the end the appropriation o' 8300,000 was given, which, though small, is better than nothing, and pledges the Government to completio ofthecani'. It wnnid have been bet ter to have secured the appropriation on a continuing contract, but that was not possible under the circumstances and c:nditions. The situation now stands tht th Government is pledge l to give s metbing to the canal every time the hatbor appropriation bid h pssfd, but this bill is sometin es .not parsed. I wan ed to get the appropriation under the sundry civil bill, which is passed ,r each session. If I am able to d j that i' will insure the ear ieet possible com pletion of the. canal. "I think th t Oregon f ired vrr we'l in regard to her appropriations." con tinud the senator, "for nlie received more recognition in proportion to her population than any of the other Htates "There is one thing I want to say," added Mr. Fulton, "and that i that I wanted to get more recognition for other projects. The Willamette River between Portland and Salem, and Salem and Albany ; the Coos Bay and other places needed money, but It was impossible to get it under the condi Hons. I hope and think it will be pos sible later, however, and will make an attempt at the next Congress." Then Mr. Fulton told of the prospects of irrigation in the state. He takes a little more optimistic view of the situ ation than did Mr. Williamson when he returned from Washington, but this is perhaps due to the developments of the past few weeks. "The Klamath project is in god shape," said the senator, "and will be completed by the Government. Some very encouraging legislation has been secured as affecting that project. Per mission has been given to drain the lakes and also to use that portion of the beds left dry by recession of the wate s. "The Malheur scheme is looking brighter than it did," continued th sneaker. "Heretofore the attitude of the Willamette Valley and Cascade Mountain Wagon Road Company has stood in the way of the Government. This company has at least 30.000 acres of the land comprised in the proposed irrigation tract and has refused to attte to the terms proposed by the Govern ment. I introduced a bill in the Senate providing for the comlenr. nation of lands desired for irrigation, but it was de feated on constitutional grounds. How ever, I think that it was not constitu tionally defective, as do many of the great lawyers of the Senate. Even Senator Spooner, one of the recognized authorities, modified his obj-ctions towards the last. The bill is needed not only in Oregon, but in other states as well, and I think I will be ab'e to have it passed at some future session. "I w-tnt to say here," further re marked the senator, "that C. E S. Wood, attorney for the Wagon Road Company, hs done all in his power, in loya'ty to his employers, to assist the people 'n influencing the company to do what is best for all. I think his efforts and the threatened legihl.Uion together have ha 1 a beneticial effect, for it now appea's 'hat the company is willing to retreat and thnt some cuncessiou will be made. The Harney county and the Umatill.i county proj-H'ts were al-)o in bettt r shape than for some time, according to the t-enator. Experts from t ie Recla mation Bureau were now n the field and it is thought that it will i e possible to irrigate both sections. Ha e j o ', as the O eon deleeatioD, an I the Pnsider.t, decided upon any of the appointments which re wai'ing to b- made?" the senator was aki'l, but he Minled a negative smile. '"1 d 'f 't th'iik h ve settled them yet," h" S'id. ''or continued them. "TlietH is a supposition," ho continued, "that there will tie a Rfi-ter nrid Re ceiver to appoint for the Roseburg Land Office, but I do no' know what f mndation the-e is for the rum r. The office is now closed pe' ding investiga tion, whili Booth aod Bridges are sus pended." "If the officials wrre indicted by the Federal grand jury, would the suspen sion be turned to dismissal?" was the next question. "I do not know," was the answer, "but I should suppose so. The office is now closed to business and should in dictments be returned it would be c ised for an indefinite time if the in dicted officials were not removed. I should therefore think that the new of ficers would be appointed." "Is the supposition so general that you have seen any people bunting for the jobs ? ' The senator smiled an audible smile. "Well, I have heard," he said, "that (here are a number of aspirants for the places." Speaking of land offices, Sen ator, have you heerd anything of the story that the Oregon City Land Office is to be moved to Portland?" "I have heard nothing directly, though I have heard it rumored that the Presi dent had ordered the change. A year . ?o the question was agitated on two grounds, the first that it would be cheper to have the office in the Federal build ing in Portland, the second that it w u!d be more convenient. At that time both senator Mitchell and mvself recommended against the change and t ie subject was dropped. Since that I have heard nothing of it until today, nd then nothing definitely." 'Have you ht-ard anything about the alleged investigation ot the United States M rshal's office ?" the senator whs asked. "I don't think there is anything in the story," was the reply. "It is the practice to have all the Federal offices inspected at certain times, and if there is an inspe tor in the district it is for routine woik, I think, When I left Washington it was the understanding that Mr. Matthews should not be die-turbed." Then the Senior in conclusion, told of the wonderful i tetest taken in the Exposition throughout the East. He also announced that Secretary Shaw wi old be present at the opening of the Fair and would be the personal repre sentative of the President, who could not be able to come. Other members of the Cabinet had also promised to visit the Exposition d' ring its course. Tragedy Averted. "Jnst in tbe nick of time onr little boy wsB saved," writes Mrs. W. Wat kins, of Pleasant City, Ohio. "Pneu monia had played sad havoc with him and a terrible ooogh eel in besides. Doctors treated him, bat he grew worse every day.
