DAYTON DENIES
WASHINGTON, Feb. 23. Hear
ings on charges against Federal
Judge A. 0. Dayton of West Virginia
continued todav.bcforo tho house ju
diciary subcommittee, with the judge
on tliu stand being cross-examined.
He denied numerous minor charges
that he had failed to enforce the law
and that ho was temporarily "unfit''
for tlie bench.
"I don't think I would be human,"
ho said, "if I had not had tilts and
disagreements with attorneys, ilorc
than three-fourths of tho lawyers in
the. district over which I preside have
sent resolutions to this committee
expressing faith in my integrity."
Questioned ubout tho resignation of
Ids predecessor, Judge Juckson, and
his own appointment, Dayton testi
fied that a year before he was ap
pointed President Roosevelt had told
him that he would give him a place
on tho federal bench, "in spite of sen
ators or nny ouc else."
Kepresentntivo Gnrd aslicd whether
Dayton had taken any part in tho in
vestigation which preceded the res
ignation of Jackson.
"Von were close to President
Itoosovcll,'' he said, "and you were
close ,to Attorney General Moody.
Didn't you aid this investigation pcr
BonallyT" Judge Dayton replied ho had uo
recollection of takinc any part in the
investigation and remembered only
ono conversation with Mr. Moody
about i. Ho said he did not work
with CharleH F. Toter, Judgo I?eese
Blizzard and Major Btonaker of tho

POLITICAL
THE logisliilive inountniu labored ami brought I'ortha
mouse of eeouomv. Lt also gave birth to a mountain
of political spoils.
Despite much talk of economy, the actual reduction in
expenses for the ensuing bienuium, as given by the. Asso
ciated Press, approximates
tions made by the legislature
Those for this bienmum total
Those for 19.13 included
in eastern Oregon. There is no such development Avork in
eluded in this year's program.
The session besran with an onslaught unon all cotnmis
sions and boards." It proposed to abolish or consolidate
everything m snnit. It ended by consolidating but two
departments, the state engineer s and the highway engin
eer s, one an irrigation and
road-building organization,
combined departments are
as the individual departments received. jn) economy was
effected, the only object being to take away the power of
the board of control to name 'the highway engineer, giving
it to the governor, and making the state engineer appoint
ive instead of elective.
The abolition of offices began and ended with the state
immigration commission, which asked no appropriation.
The state accountancv elimination bill was passed, but re
called and the office perpetuated at the last minute with
an appropriation.
A program of consolidation was outlined by Governor
Withycoinbc in Ins message. A special senate committee
was appointed to make recommendations. The committee
purposely held up its report, until tho closing hours, when
it was too late for action. The consolidations proposed
would have eltected only a negligible saving.
Efforts to effect a saving from the fish and game license
money ended by the creation of a new commission to be
named by the governor. Efforts to consolidate the insur
ance and corporation departments ended by giving the
governor the power to appoint new commissioners.
Efforts to destroy the compensation act ended in giving
the governor right to appoint new commissionei's. Efforts
to reform the horticultural commission along lines favored
by the horticulturists themselves ended in giving the gov
ernor opportunity to change
ing old laws. Ei torts to retorm the judiciary ended in
creation of three or four new judges to be named bv the
governor and so it went, economy the cry and spoils the
object.
There was no good roads
refused to pass the pet measure ot Senator Day boss ot the
senate, liimsclf a paving contractor, which barred patented
pavement concerns from bidding on road work, destroying
competition, leaving the field clear for contractors like
Day. State Highway Engineer Bowl by was sacrificed to
please Lv. Day, but liis removal did not secure needed road
legislation, as the governor seemed to expect.
Political economy as a science, practiced by the legis
lature, consisted in the passage of the following bill,
drafted by Senator Day:
Each and every person holding an appointive office in any of the offices,
departments or Institutions of this state, shall hereafter hold tho same for
an Indefinite term and shall at all times bo subject to removal by tho ap
pointive power which made the appointment, and such appointive power
shall In all such cases havo tho right and power to appoint a successor or
successors.
It Is hereby adjudged and declared that existing conditions arc such
that this act Is necessary for tho Immediate preservation of the public
peace, health and safety, and an emergency is hereby declared to exist, nnd
this act shall take effect and be in full force nnd effect from nnd after Its
approval by tho governer:
The same emergency for the '" preservation of the
public peace, health and safety" was declared to exist in
the cases of the new circuit judgeships created, and on
other measures so raw that it Was feared the people would
not approve if given a chance to rcferend, notwithstand
ing the fact that Governor Withycombe in his pre-election
jMeatora speech said :
I am particularly opposed to the uso of the emergency clause for any
purpose other thun that Intended by the constitution, and never would I, as
governor, permit uso of tho emergency clauso to defeat the initiative and
referendum.
The action of the Jackson county delegation, both in
senate and house, in ,bpposhi the, program of political
spoils and the abuse of the emergency clause is to bo com
mended, as is their fiitilo effort to secure needed con
structive legislation for good roads and horticulture.
L
LAND GRANT CASE
WASHINGTON, Feb. 23. Appli
cation for early hearing lu the pend
ing Oregon land grant cases bus been
filed' in tho supremo court by tho de
partment of Justice. The land, con
sisting ot fionio 2,300,000 acres in-
western Oregon, is claimed by the
Oregon & California railroad com
pany under grant from congress. Tho
government contends tho conditions
of tho grant have not been met.
Improper conduct in attempting to
posfpono tho cases In the supreme
court of tho United States was
charged against Win. F, Ilerrln, of
the Southern Pacific railroad, in San
Francisco by Ilcprcsentatlvo Lafferty
of Oregon in the house.
lie said Ilerrln had tried to see
Chief Justice White and a district of
ficial during tho court recess in an
effort to havo the cases postponed
until April or May or even October,
if possible. He declared Jlerrln's
action was highly improper because
the movement for a postponement
was made in private and uot in open
court and that a postponement would
further delay the claims of settlers in
Oregon who already havo been in
court for boven years.
