Urges Party Promises.

Rochester, n. Y. March 19-Pres-
ident Taft last night, in an address
before the Rochester chamber of COM
merce, again appealed to members Of
congress to sacrifice their individual
opinions that the platform promises
of the republican party might be full
filled and hoped the party would
show that it has "the sense and the
discipline TO meet its responsible
ties"
The impression had got abroad that
the president might have something
to say on the acute situation in the
house of representatives at Washing
ton, but this was his nearest refer
ence to the subject. At one point Of
his speech. which was devoted en-
tirely to the legislation he had rec
commended in the last few months,
the president further declared:
IF this congress is to be treated as
a republican congress, these things
ought to pass in fulfillment of party
pledges. After this is done, it does
not matter what happens at the next
election. We will have done some
thing; the country will be grateful
whether it thinks it ought to express
this gratitude in the immediate future
or not"

Fight Is Renewed.

Washington, March 19.-Shortly
after the house reassembled today
Speaker Cannon sustained the point
of order raised by Dalzell. against the
consideration of the Norris resolution
to change the organization of rules
committee and eliminate the speak
er therefrom. A roll call was ordered
on DGlzeii's point Of order, which was
also a motion to lay the resolution
on the table. Norris of Nebraska,
appealed from the decision of the
chair. a motion to lay on the table
Norris appeal from Canon's ruling
was defeated, 164 to 1S1.
The motion of Norris, ordering the
previous questions, thus shutting off
debate on the motion to take the res
olution, was carried. This denotes the
strength of the allies" A roll call
was then begun to decide whether
the decision of the chair would be
accepted or rejected.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1910-03-19

BY winning the unanimous decis-
ion of the judges last night in their
contest with the team representing
the Wheeler county high school, the
trio of debaters of the local high.
climbed one step higher in their fight
for the state championship. The VIC
tory was well earned and the van
quished team frankly acknowledged
that they were caught unprepared
on a certain phase of the question
and could not extricate themselves
from the mesh into which they were
thrown. No one in the audience for
a moment doubted what the outcome
would be after the first two speakers
had taken their seats. So clearly did
the negative trio define their position
and so insistently did they urge it,
that they were throughout masters of
the situation. The visitors were taken
by surprise by a defense so cleverly
executed that it soon lost the semb-
lance of a defense. After the first
vantage ground had been taken, the
defenders rushed forth and became
the aggressors, which change of pro-
cedure completely disconnected their
opponents. In vain they tried
counter attack according to pre-ar-
ranged plans, but their set speeches.
incapable of readjustment, were as
guns trained on land and sea, with the
attack coming from the air. while
their Notifications were not so con-
structed as to afford much protection
from the consternatlng bombs Of the
enemy, The result was inevitable.
Defeat was their portion, but they ac-
cepted it gracefully and only after
game fight to the last ditch.

, >e>~~~o~e 90 .

Washington, Mar. 19.-Opposing
leaders in the rules committee fight
began a conference at nine o'clock this
morning. They occupied the greater
part of the morning in an effort TO
effect a compromise. Cannon's pro-
posed effacement from the house rules
committee was the point upon which
the conferees could not agree.
An official announcement that the
fight would go on upon the floor OF
the house was then made by the
leaders Of the regulars. Dalzell and
Mann prevented a compromise by in
sisting that Cannon remain on the
rules committee. Martin, of South
Dakota, introduced a compromise res
olution. providing for a committee Of
ten members and after the expiration
% the present term the speaker was
not to be eligible. This was rejected
by both sides.
Mann of Illinois, declared the allies
did not offer the regulars anything
in the way of n compromise but on
the other hand demanded every con-
cession. When asked how he expect
ed the fight to result. he said: 'T
expect the regulars will be beaten"
This. coming from the staunchest sup
porter of Cannon is taken as one of
the strongest indications of the pos
sible downfall of the Cannon regime
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1910-03-19

For the purpose of discussing with
F. 8. Drake the proposition OF the
building of an electric line by the
Washington oregon company con-
ference was held in the office of DR..
c. ]. Smith. The meeting was attend
ed by the members of the regular
Commercial association committee, by
G. NJ. Rice, w, L. Thompson and
Messrs. Drake and Baumeister. 1t
was the first conference between the
railroad representatives and local
people since the departure of d. Fitz-
Gerald from this place.
AS represented by Mr.. Drake, the
directors of the traction company de-
sire to carry out their enterprise and
have hopes of doing so. A tempo
rary lull in the operations of the
company was caused through the
change in representatives here and
also because Of the fact that Mr..
FitzGerald had failed to raise the bal
ance Of the $4,000 fund by means OF
the alignment. After the local COM
mittee had secured $4,000 by stock

MAY BUILD To SOUTHWARK

subscriptions, Mr.. FitzGerald under
took the task of raising the other
$4,000. He was evidently unsuccess-
full in this. However the company
still has hopes that 1t can get the
proposition into such shape that they
can go ahead with the project.
According to Mr.. Drake, Samuel
Drumheller, president of the COM
paiy, will be here early during the
coming week. The two men then pro-
pose to take an auto trip out into the
country southwark The discussion
yesterday was largely regarding the
feasibility of a line in that direction.
Mr.. Drake openly expresses himself as
favorable to having the first line built
in that direction.
Mr.. Drake, who is now in charge of
the Washington Oregon companys
office here, Is traction man of wide
experience both in the east and in
the west He was superintendent on
the electric line between Portland and
Salem and also was superintendent
at one time for the traction company
at Walla Walla.
