New York. Aug. 6-Theodore Roose-
welt yesterday talked over the ap-
preaching state campaign with George
Green OF Brooklyn. one Of Governor
Hughes staunchest supporters in the
assembly. Mr.. Green, who is one of the
mon who stood sponsor for the beaten
Hinman-Green direct nomination bill,
said after his call he had received as
surance that the colonel was in sympa-
thy with the men who are working for
direct nominations plank in the plat
form.
C. H. Belts Of Lyons, N. Y, mem
Der Of the republican state commit
tee. also talked with Colonel Roose-
velt on state politics.
In the course Of a conversation be-,
tween Colonel Roosevelt and several
visitors today John Mitchell, former
president Of the United Mine Workers
of America, was mentioned as pos
sible candidate for the republican nom
ination for governor. Colonel Roosevelt
was greatly interested in the sugges-
ton, altno he would not express any
opinion as to it's wisdom. He said he
regarded Mr., Mitchell highly, that he
was one Of the men on whom he had
depended for assistance when he was
in the White House and that he
thought very highly of Mr. Mitchells
judgment.
Mr.. Mitchell has been a resident of
Mount Vernon, suburb of New York,
for more than two years. He is chair
man of the trade agreement committee
Of the National Civic Federation. AL
tho /he is a republican he never has
been active in politics, and in fact has
been so little OF a partisan that at the
time. of the last presidential cam
paign his name was mentioned as q
possible candidate for the democratic
nomination for vice president.
P. H. .Morrissey Of Chicago, president
Of the Railway Employees Investors As
sociation and former grand master of
the Order of Railway Trainmen, called
on Colonel Roosevelt today. The col
onel said they discussed his coming

tracts which were disapproved by

FOR PANAMA EXPOSITION
Eurs Session of LepisIstUrs May Be
 Called to Provide Funds.

Promoters of the Panama Canal Exposition at San Francisco have asked the government to call an extra session of the Legislature for the pur- pose of providing for State bonds to the amount of se,OOO,OOO for the expo sition. the exposition committee to pay all expenses of the session.
 San Francisco men have pledged szy5Oo.00O. The city is bonded for $5,- coo. .OOO more, and with the s5,OoO,0e0 to be raised by State taxation there will be the sum in the aggregate of s17,5OO,Oo6 to be presented to Cons gress. when it meets next December, if the constitutional amendment is made
 Gov Gillett favors the extra ses- sion. He says:
 We want to be ready when Con- gress convenes to show it that we have the money, It is a question of money. We want to appear in Wash ington with sum of money so large that New Orleans will quit. It will take big amount, and we want to be there with the goods.
 "The canal will soon be completed and the eyes of the world will be upon us. We don't want to be bumped off the map by New Orleans.
 "The exposition people say they will pay for the expense entailed by the meeting of the Legislature in extra session, and the State will be to no ex- pense whatever. The Legislature can convene, a resolution calling for an amendment to the State Constitution by which the entire State may be bonded in the sum of $5,000,000 be adopted and the whole work done in three or four days at the outside. This amendment can then be submitted to the voters of California at the next election in November and they then can pass upon it."

 URGED BY JUDGE HAYNES

companies formed, or which may be formed, until the primary matter of the control of the water supply is settled and the main system of the California Development Company ac- qaired and put in order. One cogent reason for postponing athe purchase of the local distributing system by the irrigating district is that the whole financial power of the district will be needed in the first Instance to acquire the system of the California Development Company and Mexican Company, and to make the necessary improv ements of the same. Irrigation district bonds have not been the most favored securities in the bond market, and it is prudent, in the first instance, to use the bonds of the district only so far as is impera- lively necessary to attain the primary purpose of acquiring the ownership and control of the water supply and main system and to render the same safe and efficient.
 THE FINANCIAL PROBLEM
 With respect to the financial prob lem involved, it is we'll known that the affairs of the California Develop ment Company are in an appallingly confused and desperate condition. The general outline of the nature of the claims made against it. may b. roughly approximated in round num- bers as follows:
 Receivers certificates issued to July 1. 1910, sS36,OOO. All of these are held by the Southern Pacific Company
 Bonds of the California Develop ment Company secured by trust deed. principal, s5OO,OOO.
 Interest and expense in foreclosure secured $3O,OOO
 Judgement of Liverpool Salt Con- pany aside from costs and disburse- ments, for principal sum of $45O,OOO.
 Interest, etc, accumulated thereon, $75.0OO.
 Judgment of Southern Pacific Con- pany for money loaned with interest. $1 .40O.OOO.
 Miscellaneous claims ,s2O0,OO0.
 The Southern Pacific Company brings up the rear with the claim that the California Development Company should make up any deficit between the sum of s1 .6OO,OOO which it claims to have expended in closing the breaks in the banks of the Colo rado, and what the United States Government may allow it thereon.
 Here are demands which easily az gregate $S,5OO,OOO which will clamor for payment
 Besides which are the estimated ex- penses of the extension and compile ton of the system, including the strengthening of the winding channel canal in Mexico; the extension of main canals in Imperial Valley, etc, estimated by the former manage ment at s2.500OO0.
 It will be readily seen that to deal with the Financial side of the problem. and to prevent undue exactions. will take the united strength of the people of the Imperial Valley, united with all

difncalties are referred to, only that they may be surmounted, ab they must be and will be. Tn this effort I am persuaded that the heroic people of the Imperial Valley will have the cooperation of the Mexican Govern ment and the syspathy and good win of their fellow citizens everywhere, who understand the situation.
