Dear Dad: II anybody has any
doubt as to what the power trust
really wants. i would refer the
doubter to senate bill No. 1895,
sixty-first congress, first session.
1t was introduced April by Mr..
Gugenheim of Colorado. 1t refers
to forest reservations and other
public lands. 1t is straightawayI
proposal that the law be so
or repealed that any per-
son or corporation may have a
right to any and all waters, pub
lie lands. rights of way. etc., for
canal, power or irrigation pur-
poses by the simple process of
filing a map. showing what he
wants, with the land office. There
is nothing about compensation;
nothing about limitation; nothing
about conservation. Paragraph 3
contains these words: THAT the
interior department of the gov
eminent shall have no power, by
departmental order, by denying or
refusing rights of way, by refus-
ing to allow the filings herein
provided for, or by any other act
to prevent any corporation, per-
son, association of persons or set
Element or aggregation of people
of the United States from compet-
ing for priority of right to use
the waters of any natural stream
within any of the states" etc.
That's all. Why not give Google

ton for him, call him in Colorado)

Salem, Ore. Jan 1S.-At a late hour
tonight the election of George E Cham
berlain, Democrat. as United States
senator from Oregon, is practically as

has strengthened doubtful members by
promising to resign as governor on
March T. This assertion is denied by
Governor Chamberlain. who says that
he has simply promised to be present at
Washington when his duty calls him.
At the caucus tonight of the opponents

IDAHO DESIRES
A PRIMARY LAW
Bill introduced in Lower House
of Legislature Containing
Oregon Features.
Especial to The HeraId)

Boise, Ida, Jan. 1S.-Both houses Of
the legislature adjourned early today
out of respect to the membory of Ma
than H. Clark. a member of the ninth
session from Custer county, whose
death occurred here Saturday.
In the house the first primary bill
made its appearance, being fatheTed by
woodward. Parsons and Atkinson. 1t
is patterned after both the Wisconsin
and Washington laws and contains first
and second choice provisions and a
statement similar TO that in Oregon
covering the election Of United States
senator's. Fifteen per cent of the salary
Of the office is the maximum that may
be legally expended for campaign pur-
poses by any candidate. In the senate
Davis of Gilmore presented an employ
ers' liability Dill applicable to railroads.
The features of the Davis measure are
to be included in an employers liability
bill which is now being prepared by
Kerns as representing the Democratic
views OF such a law. The Kerns bill
contemplates a general law. with es-
pecial attention paid to protection for
miners. The bill will be remOdaled
probably from the English law.
Senator Spaulding introduced a reso-
luton in lieu of one covering a similar
subject. Under this resolution the state
land board is given power TO settle the
controversy over lands in ShOshUne
county held adversely to hOmesteaders
by the state. The feTmeT resolution
provided for a commission of three to
be named by the board. One Of the
most spirited contests of the session will
resolve around the Spaulding resolution.

ROOT TO SUCCEED PLAT
Democrats in the New York Legis-
lature Name Lewis Stuyve-
SAINT Chanler.

Albany, \. Y, Jan. 1S.-EIihu Root,
secretary of state in President Roose-
velt's cabinet, was the unanimous
choice of the Republican legislative
caucus tonight to name a candidate to
succeed United States Senator Thomas
G. Plat, whose term of office will expire
on March 4.
The Democratic caucus nominated
former Lieutenant Governor Lewis
Stuyvesant Chanler, who was the DEM
ocratic candidate for governor in the
November election. Mr.. Roots nominal
ton is equivalent to an election, as the
legislature is overwhelmingly Repub-
iiCan.
