Hay and Benson to Confer on Legis.
lative Matters.

1dttVS mdtSStS'
PORTLAND, Feb. 14.-Goyernor
Benson, of Oregon, and Governor
Hay, of Washington, have arranged
a conference, which will be held in
Portland March 9, for the purpose OF
discussing matters of legislation IN
which the two states are jointly inter
ested.
The conference has been brought
about through the initiative of Gov
ernor Hay, who proposed it several
months ago. The movement really
dates back to the last session OF the
Washington State Legislature, when,
through the instrumentality of Sena-
tor Stewart and J. R. Burke. repre-
sentative from Wahkiakum County.
and other members of the Columbia
River counties, resolution was
adopted providing for the appoint
ment of a treaty commission to settle
the boundary controversy between
the two states, establish uniform fish
ing regulations and such other mat
tiers as affect the interests of both
commonwealth.
The Washington authorities have
never been satisfied with the boun-
Diary decision of the United States
Supreme Court, and on that side of
the river it is contended that the
scope of the decision does not affect
all the boundary that is in dispute.
1t is asserted that all points in con-
troversy could be settled by treaty
which would be binding on the two
states after ratification by Congress.
1t is possible that the two Cover
nors, after discussing all phases OF
the situation, VII agree upon uni
form recommendations to be made to
the respective legislatures next year
affecting Columbia River legislation.

BaIIinqer Trial Begins Again.

WASHINGTON, Feb 14.-After a
session lasting less than an hour,
during which the future conduct of
the case was informally discussed,
the Ballinger-Pin Congressional
investigating committee Friday grant
ed the request of Attorney Louis D..
Brandels for an adjournment to Mon
day morning.
When the committee resumed its
sessions a representative of Daniel
Guggenheim was present to introduce
evidence, both documentary and oral,
to show the exact amount and char
acter of the Guggenheim holdings IN
Alaska.
The claim has been made in some
quarters that the Guggenheims were
striving for the control of Alaskan
coal and mineral lands, railroads and
boat lines and that the Cunningham
group of coal Claims was closely iden-
tilted with the Guggenheim interests.
Just when the committee Will hear
this testimony is problematical. 1t
has been determined that when one
witness is called his story will be
completed before any other phase of
the controversy is taken up.

EVER ENACTED.
REVIEWS PARTY PLATFORM
Declares Postal Savings Banks Should
Be Established to Keep
Pledges.
REVIEWS PARTY PLATFORM

NEW YORK, Feb. lift Wall
Street methods are such that the en-
torcement of the law will promote
panic, then the quicker the methods
are changed, the better"
This was President Taft's answer
to Wall Street and its cry Of panic"
the Republican Club at the Waldorf
Astoria
Mr. Taft again came to the defense
of the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill. He
did not hesitate, he said, to repeat
that it substantially complied with
the party pledge for tariff regulation
and that, through this bill, the party
had "set itself strongly in the right
direction, toward lower tariffs
Reviewing the party platform, the
President spoke of postal savings
banks, amendments to the interstate
commerce law, the anti-injunction
plank, statehood for Arizona and New
Mexico, and the conservation OF Ma
tional resources, bills to carry all OF
which promises into effect were pend
Ing in Congress, and he believed
would be passed.
Speech Summarized.
Trusts-If the law is not consis-
tent with present business methods,
business methods must be changed.
Tariff-The Payne-Aldrich bill is
downward revision on necessarfes,
and the best tariff measure ever en-
acted.
Postal Savings Banks-Such banks
can be constitutionally established.
If the Republican party does not &C
complish this, it must face charges
of bad faith.
Federal ncorporation-Save inter
state business from state embarrass-
ment and protect the public through
unified federal control.
Acknowledgement watering of Sc
curities and empower the interstate
commission to regulate rates for the
benefit of the public.
njunctions-Require that no feder
al court Injunction shall issue with
out full notice and hearing, unless to
prevent irreparable injury, and in
such cases to extend only five days
before hearing.
n-Reclassification Of
public lands according to their great
est utility, and vest In the executive
power to dispose of coal, phosphate,
oil and mineral lands and water pow
er sites to prevent their monopoly
by eyndicates.

500, 900 Expense Too Much

The county commissioners have
turned down the proposition of
cruising the county. This work
meant at the lowest bid received
the expenditure of about $4,000,
and the commissioners do not feel
that the work is important enough
to justify the outlay. The lowest
bid was q cents per acre.
The work proposed was to 60 over
the county and give acre by acre
values of timber and improvements,
value of different kinds OF land
buildings, etc. The work when
when finished would give in detail
the value Of every acre,in the com
|ty. This would greatly lessen the
work of the assessor for. all time to
come.
The lowest bid received was given
by c. S. Webster, of Spokane. Tfis
work will probably be taken up AT
some later date, but SIS indefinitely
postponed for the present by the
