HOUSE IS EXCITED
E
MADE BY MEf IBER
Norton, of North Dakota, At
tacks Hefiin Who Replies
Amid Much Confusion
Washington. Sept. 24. Boused by
veiled attacks upon the honesty of some
of its members, the house today plung
ed into heated debate of Representa
tive Hefiin 's charge that certain rep
resentatives might have been interested
in the Bcrnstorff "slush fund."
Declaring the honor of the house has
been "slanderously attacked," Repre
sentative Norton, of North Dakota, de
manded an explanation of Hefiin.
"If I had suspected dishonesty," he
declared, "I'd be man enough to in
vestigate it, and, if it were true, to
present it properly to the house. I would
not sneakingly insinuate.
"Whatever tends to break down con
fidence in this house breaks down our
form of government. In the past two
years there has been an attempt by
certain interests and certain newspapers
to undermine and destroy our faith of
the people in their representatives, but
there never has been a specific charge
against any member only general slan
ders. "But now comes from a member of
this body a specific accusation. Repre
sentative Hefiin says he can name thir
teen or fourteen men who, inforentially,
took of this German gold.
"We may talk of pacifists and trai
tors, but there is no greater national
crime than for a member to charge cor
ruption in this body or to do aught
in war time to destroy a people's faith
in this government."
The house here burst into applause.
"If such a charge is true, no punish
ment is too severe or the. member of
this house accused. If false, even as
apology from the man who made it
would not suffice to correct this crime.
If he got down to this house on bin j
marrow bones he could not clear from
the minds of the people the imputation
he has cast on the integrity of this
body. .
"If this charge cannot be sustained
this house cannot mete out to him. too
great a punishment."
The house burst into prolonged cheer
ing as Norton finished. Speaker Clark
pounded vigorously for order.
Hefiin Explains.
Hefiin sought to explain his remarks.
But a half dozen accusing members rose
to their feet with pointed queries.
"Did or did you not make such a
statement to the presst" asked one,
"The cress said that I said it on the
floor," evaded Hefiin. "I said it in
the lobby."
The house laughed.
"I said it in the lobby," he repeat
ed, "where there were German spies
. A I
about. There are spies ail arouuu ueru
Representative More of Pennsylvania
demanded that the clerk take down
Hefiin 's words that there "are German
spies here now." -
"I didn't mean to say that," said
Hefiin. "I didn't mean to say there
are spies on :the floor there are spies
in the galleries."
Representative Cooper of Wisconsin
interrupted to demand that the speaker
stay within his personal privilege and
explain to the house merely if he made

State House News
Commissioner Corey who has been in
Eastern Oregon for a week returned
yesterday haying held eleven hearings
in that time. The principal one was at
Sumpter, where the Sumpter Valley
Railroad was attempting to move the
depot a considerable distance from its
old location and practically out of the
city. While there is but little left of
the old mining town those remaining
want to rebuild and want the dopot
placed on the old site. Just before the
fire Sumpter had subscribed $10,000
for the Red Cross, but the fire left it
broke and in need of the money it
gave so liberally. The depot will be
placed on the old site if built now, but
it was suggested it be held up for
awhile until just what the town would
do in the way of rebuilding was de
cided. Another important hearing was that
of the application for a logboom ou
the Minan river,
The state water board meets this af
ternoon on the arrival of commissioner
Cochrane from La Grande to act on
matters pertaining to Silvies and Hood
River, In the former case the trouble
arises from the big cattle companies
trying to keep control of the waters
of the entire stream and this is object-
the statement and if he could prove it
were so.
Speaker Clark ruled that Hefiin 's
remark about spies in the gallery was
not properly t: part of a personal privil
ege speech and should be stricken from
the records.
"I haven't said," declared Hefiin,
"that any member actually got money
from the Bernatorff fund. I said there
had been a minor about a German gam
bling house where pacifists and slack
ers could win money easily."
Representative Gordon of Ohio de
manded that Hefiin "stick to the
question," and ''not repeat false
charges. ' '
Taking another tack, Hefiin said he
had a right to say that certain mem
bers had acted suspiciously.
"They have not conducted them
selves in accordance with my ideas of
honor and patriotism," he said.
There was a chorus from all over the
house of "name them!"
Hefiin mopped his face with a hand
kerchief and appealed to the chair that
the house was not treating him fairly.
Speaker Clark asked members not to
interrupt.
"If the house wants me to name cer
tain suspicions members, I'll do it," de
clared Hefiin "I can't prove anything
however." '
The house hooted.
"I don't nout publicity," said Hef
iin and the chamber burst into "Doos"
"If I could speak to the American
people in thj manner I wish to speak,
1 would maki disclosures" ,
"Do it," shouted several members.
"No. I've dedicated myself," said
Hefiin, "to my eountry and its chief
and the boys who have gone into the
trenches. '
There was another chorus of "boos"
and groans.
"Fellow members, let us stand to
gether," urged Hefiin amid laughter,
"Hefiin then launched an impassion
ed appeal for patriotism and loyalty by
all members and took his seat.
Representative Fordney of Michigan
introduced a resolution demanding that
Hefiin prove his charges.
Unless an agreement is reached to
disregard the rules, fordney 's resolution
must lie over a day.
Representative Howard of Georgia,
who was quoted as declaring I'riday
that certain members bad acted recent
ly "more prosperous than ever before,
obtained the floor and claimed that he
had been misquoted and had never im
pugned the honor of the house.

State Engineer Lewis says there is
real trouble at Hood River over water
rights. While there is plenty of water
for irrigation purposes if it could bo
used, there are prior rights of flume
companies and mills that prevent the
use of the water for irrigation and
hence it is a state of war.
