He Fathered Local Option.

Lee A. Johnson of Sunnyside, who
is mentioned as a probable candi-
date for the republican nomination
for congress, passed through on his
way to Pullman, where he goes to
attend a meeting of the board of
regents of the state college, of which
he is member.
Mr.. Johnson is we'll known
throughout the state as the father
of the local option bill, which he
championed at the last sessions of
the legislature Mr. Johnson says
that while he will not be in the next
legislature, there will be others
t..ere who will lead the fight for To-
cal option and he is convinced that a
bill will be passed.
THE local option sentiment has
been growing throughout the state"
says Mr.. Johnson. "and the people
are showing more interest in this
question than ever before. 1t will be
made an issue in many counties In
the election of members to the lV,-
is lature, and no effort will be spar
ed TO elect a legislature which will
pass bill which will permit the peo-
pie of every section to say whether
or not they want the saloon. "-Spo-

NEW INDIAN BILL.
Arranged by Jones-Rclates to Sale
of Lands.

Wide interest is Do:ng taken In
this section of the country in the
last bill passed by congress in rela-
ton TO the sale of Indian lands on
the Yakima Indian reservation. This
bill was introduced by Congressman
Jones and was intended to make
more clear the purpose of the first
Jones bill passed in 1907.
Owing to the bearing of the Jones
bill on the Wapato irrigation project
Attorney Ralph B. Williamson of the
United States reclamation service
has been investigating that measure.
One of the results of the last Jones
BILL says Mr.. Williamson, will be 70
secure to the purchaser of Indian
lands better title. The titles 10
these lands have been questioned by
some attorneys. The last bill makes
the government guarantee the title.
Mr.. Williamson says:
THE first Jones bill of 1907 used
the words 'noncompetent Indians,
which was intended to mean Indian
minors and authorizes the sale by
them Of their lands under rules and
regulations prescribed by the secre-
tary of the interior. The last Jones
act uses the words Indian minors
and authorizes the sale of their lands
under the rules and regulations of
the secretary tf the interior.
Sale on Petition Only.
another point in this last act is
that sale may be made only on petit
ton of the natural guardian of the
minor Indian, or, in the absence of 4
natural guardian, by a person desig-
mated by the secretary.
1.-THE most important point from 4
legal view is that the first act pro-
vided that the noncompetent Indian
should convey his interest, and that
such conveyance should be Of the
same effect as if fee simple had
issued to the allottee. while the last
act provides that when such sale Is
made a patent shall issue direct to
the purchaser, passing an uncondi-
tional title from the government Of
the United States"
The last Jones bill. passed by both
houses and now up to the president,
is as follows:
"Be it enacted by the senate and
house of representatives of the Unit
ed States of America in congress as
sembled: That the interests of any
Indian minor in any lands of the
Yakima Indian reservation, state OF
Washington, whether by direct allot-
ment or by inheritance, may be sold
on such terms and conditions and
under such rules and regulations as
| the secretary of the interior may pre-
scribe; but such sale shall be only
on approved petition of the natural
guardian of such minor. II living, or
If such natural guardian be dead, on

by the secretary of the interior.

Aobson,s seorstary to rstIfy.

Washington, d. C.-Bdgar Clarkson,
secretary to representative Hobson of
Alabama, will be the first witness
called by the submarine investigating
committee when its sessions are re-
sumed. Mr.. Clarkson is expected to
contradict the sworn testimony of for
mer Naval Constructor Lawrence Y
Spear, now yice-president and naval
architect for the Electric Boat COM
pany, in which he denied the truth of
the sworn statement of Representative
Hobson that he sought out and told
Hobson that the Electric Boat COM
pany had influence with Speaker Can
non, and that If Hobson stood right"
on submarines, this influence would be
brought to bear to secure his assign
ment to the house committee on naval
affairs.
Mr. Hobson made formal written re-
quest to the committee to place Mr..
Clarkson on the stand, the latters offer
to testify having been thrice turned
aside by the committee.
In an interview Mr.. Hobson said:
"The statements made by me to the
investigating committee were absolute
ly accurate. Mr. Spear did after ap-
preaching the subject in a roundabout
manner, inform my secretary that his
company had influence with the speak
er and was willing to use that influence
to secure my assignment to the naval
committee in return for a friendly at
titude on my part toward the submar-
ines.
THE statement by Mr.. Spear so as
tonished my secretary and made such
vivid impression on his wind, he in
formed me, he practically can repeat
Mr.. Spears words. Mr.. Clarkson at
once acquainted me with Mr.. Spears
visit and his offer, and subsequently
Mr. Spear called on me on the tele-
phone and repeated to me personally
his declaration Of influence with the
speaker and his offer to use 1t in my
behalf.
There is not the slightest possibil-
ity foC-any mistake or misunderstand-
ing on my part as to what Mr. Spear
did and said and meant"
