AKINS, BENTON
A NEWSPAPER
Tho following Is froni a personal
letter to tho' editor of tho Mall Tri
bune from a well known Washington,
D. C, correspondent under dato of
October 11, and throws an Interesting
light upon Congressman Hawloy's
claims:
"In referncco to the opposition to
Hawley which you aro voicing every
day with spirit and effectiveness, I
am afraid therel s a fundamental
weakness In making tho concession
to Hawloy's "Pork barrel" successes,
for, as a matter of cool truth, Hawley
has not been and never will be a buc
cesa as a picker of pork from our
Undo Samuel's barrel. For Instance,
at the last session he got absolutely
nothing of bis own effort If you
will examine the records, you will
see that practically all of tho appro
priations gotten for Oregon were pro
cured by Bourne and Chamberlain,
and both of them pursued a course
of Independence, coming from the ses
sion with open hostility on the part
of tho senato and house bosses. Of
course I followed the development of
tho session day by day, and event by
event, and know of many things that
never got to the public confiden
tially communicated to me. I saw
correspondence that proves, and
watched ovents with InUmate knowl
edgo that confirm, tho theory that
Hawley and Ellis, too, for that mat
ter, got nothing for Oregon.
"Why? Those political bosses,
ouch as Cannon and Aldrlch, know
human nature well, and when a man
comes to tho congress In either house
they "size up" the recruit with ac
curacy in estimating his component
elements. Such men as Hawley they
soon see are "easy" hence they aay
to each ether: "This fellow has not
tho nerve to make us "come across."
Wo can handle him. Ho won't make
us divide the swag." And, forthwith,
they list him as among tho "eaBy
marks" and seldom mistake.
"Tbatl e precisely what they did
in Hawloy's case. So that the record
reveals that Hawley got nothing that
would not havo como through ar
rangements previously mado In for
mer congresses. Tho biggest thing
in Hawley's political Ufo that prom
ised good or 111 was tho Wlllametto
river locks. Ho told hla people In
tho FIrBt district that ho would get
an expropriation for their opening.
In a largo degree he was elected upon
that issue. Ho got no dollar for It.
The hill passed tho houso without
tho mention of it; it wont to tho sen
ato, and thoro Dourno got tho appro
priation of ?300,000 Into the bill.
Then tho bill wont to conference
that Is, It having been amended, a
committeo from Bonato and houso
conferred as to its final form. Even
after Bourne had gotten the item Into
tho bill, after Hawley failed to get It
thoro, Hawley could not hold it, and
tho houso conforeos declared that It
must go out. Finally, influence was
exerted from tho Benato end on tho
houso members of tho conference
commlttoo, and tho Item was retain
ed. But, so far from getting tho
appropriation was Hawley thut ho al
most lost it in conference after it
had heon gotten Into tho bill at the
senate end. In thU work, too, Cham
berlain had his full part, for bo took
caro of tho Item with democratic
members, with whom ho has develop
ed a standing and influence second
to none in tho senate. It was tho
two senators who got that Item in tho
bill, and for Hawloy to suggest that
he got it Is manifestly dishonest I
una that word with duo regard for its
"The continued delayxon
...
Every article in this entire
MAN'S VIEW
grave significance, too.
"Tho same sort of dishonesty was
manifest when Hawley permitted It
to bo understood In Oregon that ho
got tho appropriation for tho addi
tional lands for tho Chemawa In
dian school ct Salem. It Lj simply
a falsificat'jn, puro and unadulter
ated, for him to permit such a claim
to be made in his behalf. Chamber
lain arranged for that appropriation
on his own initiative, and hnd it
clinched before Hawley even knew of
it as a proposal. It was, as a mat
ter of fact, a surprise to him when
announced as nn accomplished thing.
How in commou honesty can a man
claim credit for such an appropria
tion when he hud no knowledge of
its pendency before it hud been
achieved?
"Again, Oregon's claim against tho
federal government fpr war expenses
was gotten into the bill at tho sen
ate end by the combined efforts of
tho two senators. Hawley, instead
of getting it into the bill, on the con
trary, scoujied tho allegation 'which
was made in tho Washington corre
spondence of Ihe Portland Journal
that the proper method was to got it
into either the sundry civil or the de
ficiencv bill, and his position was
supported by former Senator Fulton
They argued that there was no pre
cedent for such action. The same
correspondence branded false by
Fulton in an- interview wns shown
to be correct, for the appropriation
of mnnv millions for exactly the
same sort of claims in deficiency
bills was shown to have been made
for yenrs past.
"Tim cool truth is, apart from n
very few insignificant items, such as
transfer of funds of a few thousand
dollars for harbor work, or such
small bits of adjustment as a clerk
could accomplish. Ilawlev did not get
'pork' for the first congressional dis
trict of Oregon. Yet he obeyed the
slightest behest of Cannon, voted "er
straight' with the old-line bosses, and
upon no occasion joined with the
nervy insurgents who went up
against the real thing and finally
clipped Cannon's wings. He has tin
standing among the insurgents or
progressives, who remember that,
when they needed him, he refused to
come to their aid; and they will not
care for his present attitude or pre
tended hostility to tho Cannonitcs,
foMhey have got tho 'old man' beat
en to a frnzzle, anyway, and tho
Hawloys and such, who go against
Cannon after he has been beaten, will
huve no prestige with the new ordor
that is coming in.
"Remember, too, that that now or
der is actually coming into powor in
national politics. The progressives
are to boss tho job. I never wit
nessed such marvelous changes os
took plnco in this villago during the
summer. Coming buck from a vaca
tion, one found that progressives
wero popular. When I wont nwa,
earlier in tho soason, tho prevailini
thought hero was pity, hured or in
difference toward tho progressives
Tho summer bus demonstrated thai
those who -were scorned in Juno aro
treated with doforenco in October.
" 'Human nntur' is human natur'.'
said some wiso guy, Under the opor
ntion of the laws of human nature
what standing will the Hawloys have
among tho governors of the newer
ordor of politics? What influence
will tJioy Jmvo?
"Moral; When politicians find
themselves, lost in political blizzards
ttud fonr I hoy will porish, thoy nrolpapor. As a usual thing Jho budgot
apt to throw away their Cannon hot' is as interesting und intelligiblo as
the St. Mark's Block has caused an acclcumulation of an enormous stock of merchandise
V
Slaughtered
stock is this seaion-s newest
Watch for our oouiug ad. and rieo giving or the next
tlos, cards and pipes; but watch
them. Ten to one you will find them
rounding the cornor of tho political
shed tho following morning. Mojt
nuyone who has lived in Washington
knows tho breed that talks ono way
to his constituents and nets another
way here in tho congress. And thoy
both democrat anad republican
nro daubed with tho same stick."
