Fleets on Both Coasts Must Be Pro-
pared in Peace fo r War.
Washington, Jan. 16.— A remarkable
exposition of the fatal weakness of the
army transport resources in case of war
is contained in a paper prepared by the
general staff, transmitted by Secretary
Taft to Senate» Gallinger, chairman of
the Merchant Marine commission, in
charge of the shipping bill now pend­
ing before the senate.
In the course of its work in prepar­
ing in time of peace for war, the gene­
ral staff has discovered that even the
present limited m ilitary force could not
be transported over the sea, in case of
a war with a foreign country, or to de­
fend odr insular possessions, unless
there should be an immediate and great
increase in the number of American
steamships suitable for transport ser-
v ce.
I t is pointed out that foreign ship­
ping could not be drawn upon in
tim e of war because of the neutrality
laws, so that under present conditions
“ the quick first blow, so very and in­
creasingly important, cannot be struck
at a ll.”
Incidentally, the staff criti­
cises with the greatest freedom the con­
ditions under which the first little
American army was transported to San­
tiago to begin the Spanish-American
war.
This report w ill be presented to the
senate tomorrow by Senator Gallinger,
who w ill inform the War department
that ships of the sise and speed describ­
ed as most desirable for transports are
also ships of the aixe and speed equip­
ped for several of the most important
msil lines provided for in the b ill of
the Merchant Marine commission
which stipulates that ships receiving
subvention from the government shall
be held at the disposal of the govern
ment in tim e of war.

Oregon State Primary Law Hard fo r
Candidates to Follow.
Irrigationists Say Conditions in Idaho
A re Better Than in O regon.
Salem— Another very serious prob­
lem has arisen in connection with the
direct primary law. The law require«
that candidates for state offices shall
file petitions from not less than seven
counties, and that at least 10 per cent
of the precincts shall be repreeented in
each of the seven counties. Two per
cent of the votes cast at the last state
election for supreme judge by each par­
ty must be repreeented on the petition.
I t has been the supposition until re­
cently that so long as tbe required
number of counties and precincts were
repreeented by the signatures of ons or
more voters that the bulk of the signa­
tures on a petition to make up the 2
per cent might come from one county,
so long as the required number of names
was filed with the secretary of state.
I t is now discovered that there must be
2 per cent of the vote cast by the party
represented in each county and precinct
repreeented, as well as throughout the
state.
The attorney general w ill probably
be asked to render an opinion in regard
to the number of signatures required
from the counties and precincts.
To
secure 2 per cent of the voters in seven
counties, and 10 per cent of the pre­
cincts in each of the seven counties,
and in addition have 2 per cent of tbe
party vote in the entire state, w ill add
to the difficulties of securing a petition
Salem— Prominent irrigktors of Ore­
gon are considering the advisability of
asking the next legislaure to amend the
irrigation laws in several particulars.
A t the present time all the contracts
with the state for the reclamation of
desert lands under the Carey act are
based upon the theory that the owners
of the canals and ditches are entitled to
collect a perpetual annual rental from
the landholders. In Idaho the land­
holders w ill eventually own and control
the canals, ditches, headgates, etc.
In the contract with the state of
Idaho for the construction of tbe Twin
Falls canal it is provided that a com­
pany shall be formed among the land­
owners on the basis of one share of
stock for one share of water right, and
that within seven years the e rntrol of
the canals, ditches, dams and headgates
shall pass to the corporation formed
among the water users.
Previous to
the formation of this company and be­
fore the expiration of the seven yearar
lim it, the construction company is en­
titled to collect annually not exceeding
80 cents an acre. The same theory
ownership prevails in all government
work.
A ll the contracts for the reclamation
of arid lands under the Carey act in
this state allow the construction com
panies the right to collect $1 an acre
perpetually, the company agreeing to
keep the canals and ditches in repair
FO R M NEW O R G A N IZ A T IO N .
Seattle, Wash., Jan. 15.— United
States Senator S. H . Piles w ill intro­
duce in congress a bill appropriating
the $20,000,000 paid this country by
China as damages in the Boxer upris­
ing to defray the expenses of Chinese
students to be educated in American
colleges. A part of this sum, it is pro­
posed, shall be expended in schools
conducted by Americana in China.
A b ill prepared under the direction
of tbe faculty of the University of
Washington has been forwarded to Sen
a tor Piles; and the co-operation of coast
educational institutions has been asked
in the campaign.
Out of this move­
ment, it is believed, w ill grow some­
thing aatisiabtory to Chirp, and result­
ing in abandoning the boycott against
American goods.
Tbe measure was agreed uopn at
meeting of the faculty of the Universi­
ty o f Washington, with A . W. Bash,
promoter of the Canton-Hankow and
other Chinese railroads, and an inti­
mate friend of many high Chinese offi
cials, and Dr. W . A . P . Martin, an ed
ucator long employed in C hine«
schools, who came West to welcome
the high commission just landed at San
Francisco. M r. Bash has been official
ly designated by President Roosevelt
and Secretary of Bute Root. Mr. Bash
started the movement on the coast .be­
cause he has been a resident here, and
because he believes the Pacific Coast
states originating the movement would
strengthen the fight. For that reason
the co-operation of Oregon and Cali­
fornia educators was asked.
Under the plan adopted here, the in­
demnity money would be spent: First,
«o invite Chinese students to the U nit­
ed 8tates and provide for their educa­
tion in this country; second, to aid
worth} American colleges already -«
tablished in China; third, to provide
for helping Chinese students at the
American consulates in China.
Senate Committee to Investigate
Affairs ol Canal.
MAY ABOUSH CANAL COMMISSION
Latitude Will Be Given In Taking T e s ­
timony in Hope o f Showing
Mismanagement.
Washington, Jan. 13.— W h ile the
senate has labored to mask tbe truth,
the fact is that next Tuesday Theodore
Roosevelt, W illiam H . Taft, Theodore
P. Shonts, John F. Stevens and, inci­
dentally, John F. Wallace, are to be
arraigned and tried before tbe none too
impartial judges who constitute the
senate committee on interoceanic can­
als.
The trial is to be called an investiga­
tion, but it means sim ply that every
supposed scandal, every petty criti­
cism, every report of friction between
officials, every story of an unearned
salary, avery tale of a discharged em­
ploye and every fleeting bit of gossip is
to be told in public, and from them all
the members o f the committee expect
to get— possibly some of thenf hope to
get— the basis for a direct charge of in­
competence, or it may be of guilt.
There is not a soul in Washington who
believes that anything w ill come of the
Investigation save the knowledge al­
ready held that some of the heads of the
enterprise have had their bickerings
and their disagreements.
It may be that in the course of the
hearings tbe public may learn t^ie real
reason for the resignation of Mr. W al­
lace. I t may learn whether or not
there was any trutfi in the reports of
friction between Mr. Taft and M r.
8honts. It may learn whether or not
Poultney Bigelow drew the long bow,
but that anything substantial can come
from tbe investigation no one in bis
heart believes.
I t is understood that the greatest lat­
itude w ill be given in tbe matter o f
asking questions, and, if curiosity about
personal differerences between officials
is to be considered one of the chief
things which it is necessary satisfy,
the senate and the people may have
their fill of satisfaction.
Tbe senate declares that President
Roosevelt practically challenged tbe
investigation and that it has been de­
cided not to deny him.
There waa
nothing for the president to do, appar­
ently, in the present condition of af­
fairs, except to “ challenge” an inves­
tigation. There i i a feeling in Wash­
ington that he took the course that ha
did to win eventually tbe right to con­
duct the canal construction unhamper­
ed by a commission of seven men.
I f the result of the investigation
leads to the statutory abolition of the
canal body, it may be that trouble and
rumors of trouble w ill disappear and
that the work w ill go forward, showing
that a strong hand is behind it.
