PINCHOT STILL
AFTER LAND
GRABBERS
Fight Against Foes of COnSer-
vatiOn by Forester to Be
Renewed With Vigor.

New York, Dec. 27.-Chief For
roster Clifford iPnchot today renewed
his fight against the foes of conser-
vation. In a speech at a luncheon,
given at the University Club in his
| honor by several local publishers,
the chief forester declared that the
! fight that will decide who will reap
! the benefits of a national cOnserva-
| tion policy is now on in earnest. He
said:
"The American people have evil
IDENTIFY decided that our natural re-
sources shall be conserved. But will
they beconserved for the profit of the
few, or for the benefit of the major
ity
The conflict that will decide this
question of paramount Importance
to the American people is now on.
The battle is being fought. 1t is the
honorable distinction Of the forest
service that it has been more con-
stantly and more bitterly attacked by
reports of special interests than any
other government bureau. 1t is not
able that the more successful we
have been in preventing land grab
binqg and the absorption of water
power, the more ingenious their at
tacks have become"
I'VE have allowed great corpora
tions to occupy with their own men
the strategic pointsc of our business,
social and political life. The present
condition is. therefore, our fault
more than theirs" continued Mr..
Pinchot. We've allowed all this
when we could have stopped it.
"Too often we seem to forget that
men in public life can no more serve
the special interests and the people
at the same time than we can serve
God and Mammon.
There is no other question before
us that begins to be so important or
that will be so difficult to straddle
as the great question between spe-
cial interest and equal opportunity,
between the privileges of the few
and the rights Of many; between
government by men for human wei
fare and government for money for
profits; between the men who stand
for the Roosevelt policies and the
men who stand against them. This
is the essence of the conservation
problem today.
Il believe in one form of govern
ment, and / believe in the golden
rule. But we must face the truth
that monopoly of the sources of pro-
ductiop make it impossible for vast !
numbers of men and women to earn |
a fair living. Right here the con-
question touches the daily |
life of the great body of our people, |
who pay the cost of special privilege |
And the price is heavy. That price |
may be the chance to save boys |
from the saloons and the corner |
gang, and girls from worse, and to |!
make good citizens of them instead |
Of bad.
''The people Of the United States
have been the complacent victims OF
4 system of plunder perpetrated By |
men who would be surprised beyond |
to be accused of wrong do
ng, and many of whom in their pri- i,
gattc lives were model citizens. But |
hey have suffered from a curious !
moral perversioG by which it be- |
zones praisworthy to do for a cor |
)oration things which they would re-
'use with the loftiest scorn to do for
themselves. Fortunately for us all, |
hat delusion is passing rapidly
away"

ZELAYA
NOW SAFE
IN MEXICO
UNITED PRESS LEASED w1RE.I

Washington, Dec. 27.-All indi-
cations today strengthen the belief
| that is prevalent here that the state
department is unmistakably skeptical
concerning the reform program pro-
! posed by Jose Madriz, the new presi-
dent of Nicaragua. Marin's reform
declarations undoubtedly will not be
acceped by the United States as sin
cere until a prolonged and thorough
scrutiny proves that the last taint
of 'Zelayaism" has been eradicated
from Nicaragua.
1t is rumored that former Presi-
dent Zelaya may yet have to answer
to this country for the summary ex-
ecution of two of its subjects, Leon
ard Groce and Leroy Cannon, during
the days of his dictatorship. 1t is
stated apparently upon authority
that the United States was in no po-
sition to interfere with the former
presidents hurried fight from Nicara
qua. When the new Nicaraguan gov
ernment, whatever it eventually will
be, is firmly established, it is h'rted
that efforts may be made 10 bring
Zelaya to trial on various charges.
Mexico City, Dec. 27.-In gov
ernment circles it is reported to-day
that the United States ANA Mexico
have full, but secret understanding
concerning the flight from Nicaragua
of former President Zelaya. Wnether
the two governments agreed upon
permitting the former dictator " find
refuge away from his tirbulent
country with the understanding that
his departure was eQuiVatC:.L To a
self imposed exile, is causing much
discussion.
Another report has it that the
United States may, in the future take
steps to bring Zelaya to ia5d for the
alleged indignities to which he sab
mitted certain Americans in Nicdra-
qua. The officials at tho foreign
office refused to discuss tie affair.

This resolution was not adopted by
the convention. Upon being put to a
vote the motion was lost by q vote
Of "a to 40. The proposition was not
presented for the purpose OF having
it Incorporated in the constitution,
but for the purpose Of having 1t sub
mitted to vote of the people,. These
proceedings are recorded in the de-
bates of the constitutional convention
beginning at page 347. This action on
the part of the trainers Of our consti-
tuition throws light on those provis-
ions in that instrument relating to the
elective franchise in this, that the
courts would not be left to q con.
struction Of those provisions by i'm
pltcation solely; in other words, con-
tention that legislative aenactments
permitting cumulative voting should
be construed as constitutional because
the constitution did not expressly pro-
hibit such, would not be sustained. It
is frequently urged that any subjec;
not considered by constitutional con-
vention may be deemed by Implication
as authorized by the constitution
adopted. In this case no such claim
can be made for the question of tcumu-
lative voting was fairly before our
constitutional convention, duly con-
sidered and the idea rejected. IN all
have held that under popular gov
eminent the majority must rule and
the will of the majority can only be
expressed by the scheme allowing
each elector one vote. In the Noun
traille county case decided by the su-
preme court of North Dakota Jan. 16,
1909. the court indirectly expressed
itself on this question. The court not
only committed this state to the doc.
trine of majority rule but assumed
that it extended to all other states.
The court said: According to the
American doctrine the majority is en-
titled to rule-the preference OF a
majority on any question is expressed
by the vote of those who actually
VOTE" t.%
Bouvier in his law dictionary de.
filming electors and votes says:
"One of the cardinal principles on the
subject OF elections is that the person
who receives majority or plurality
of the votes is the person elected.
Each voter has one vote" .4S$5sa
In view Of the foregoing 7 am OF
the opinion that the part of section
Is, chapter As, laws OF 1907, above
quoted, is unconstitutional and that
any votes more than one cast by an
elector for a candidate for city com
missioner would be void and could
not be legally counted for such com.
