SITTING OF GORE
CHARGES NEEDED.

On ,he floor of the Senate and before
the House committee now in session
at Nuskogee, Senator Thomas P. Gore
OF oklahoma has made startling
charges as TO an offer of a bride 10
him, amounting TO $4,000, II he would
remove certain legislation pending IN
Congress This proposed legislation
was an obstacle 10 huge attorneys
fees, reaching, 1t Is said, TO S3,0OO,OO0,
sought by Attorney J. f lIclIurray
and his associates for the sale of lands
owned by the Choctaw and Chickasaw
Indians.
Manifcstly, It would be unfair TO
the Vice President, to Senator Curtis,
or TO Representative AcGuire TO con
slider anything as proved against them
by what has thus far been brought
out with respect to the alleged state
ments OF J / Hamou 10 Senator
Gore Quite apart from this, however,
It Is Impo-tsnt thai the House com
miJtee 20 TO the bottom Of the ques-
tion OF what the alleged lobby con
cerued. in the 1IclIurray contracts has
been doing. Its activities have an un-
savOry look
It Is TO be noticed that Representa-
tive Creager told the committee that
he was informed he could have a sub
stantiaI interest IN the land deal II
he would withdraw opposition to the
approval OF the NIclIurray contracts.
He was so told, he testifies, after he
has. been invited by Hamon 10 meet
hir in a private room IN a Washing
tor hotel II Is TO De noted that Sen
RtOr Gore Is a Democrat and Mr..
Creager d Republican. Politically they
have nothing III common
1t Is plain that thorough ventilation
OF this whole business Is not only need
ed, but that 1t = Imperative and that
the committee should explore all the
ramiications of what looks ike a
scandal OF big proportions.

CASTING ABOUT FOR A NEW
YORK CANDIDATE.

New York Republican leaders are
still casting about for 4 candidate on
whom they can center for the gov
ernorship. Vice President Sherman
and National Committeeman William
l. Ward have been talking the case over
with President Taft at Beverly They
are said to have reached no conclusion
Collector William Loeb, IT., Is now
considered out Of 1t, as he has said he
does not want the nomination Henry
J.. Stimson, former United States
attorney, the prosecutor OF the Sugar
trust for the Government, Is promi-
nently considered, and so Is Clark
Williams, Of Albany, State superin-
tendent Of banking Other names were
taken up III the conference.
While the Republican leaders have
more than a month in which to get
together IN the Empire State. they
have not an easy task before them
TEey want to get a man on whom al
factions can unite and who can obtain
the stamp of approval from President
Taft, Theodore Roosevelt, and Gov
ernor Hughes. This Is not an easy
proposition Its made the more diff
cult by the feeling that New York Is
going over to the Democrats this fan.

BANK DEPOSITS SHOW WASH
NGTON'S PROSPERITY.

Every person VINO us concerned IN
the growth and development Of the
city viii be interested IN the figures
on Washington bank deposits publish
ed bv The Times today, as well as in
the Interpretation Of them by mum
beg OF Washington bankers
They show that Washington has
made wonderful strides In the past
ten years, that the people Of the com
munity have enjoyed a remarkable de
gree Of prosperity. and that there Is
no reason to doubt they viii enjoy
greater prosperity IN the future When
the individual deposits OF a city's
banks increase from So, 100000 to near
" s60. 200. 600 IN ten years the city Is TO
I.e congratulated That Is what has
happened here
In the absence Of extensive com
merciaI and industrial interests, what
has caused Washington'5 bank de
posts to show such growth. The
answer Is not hard to find The big
gest single factor Is the Government
empIove. Uncle sam Is a steady,
never-failing paymaster- he has
nearly 81 600 employees IN the District,
and he pays them in cash out Of his
Treasury twice a month The mum
Der Of employees increases gradually
Practically nobody Is ever laid On
Jvaroz are never reduced. and there IS
never a shutdown. a waIk-OUt, or a
strike. Labor disturbances are un-
known. The Federal pay roll Is a con
slant quantity Nowhere else IN this
country does such a condition prevail
Another potent influence IN the
banking business Is the large number
Of wealthy OF weIl-to-do people who
have come here TO live. These have
brought much Of their wealth with
them. Their deposits amount TO no
mean percentage of the total deposits
Some of these new residents have
become interested in local banks
themselves, thereby bringing their
own interests and the interests OF
many Of their business friends to this
city.
The development Of Washington as
a commercial and industrial cOmmUn-
itv has also helped swell its bank de
posits. More and more each year IS
the city becoming an important bust
ness center, with big local interests
exclusive of Government connection.
This provides employment for a stead
iIv increasing number Of people, and
In turn, finds reflection IN the sum
total of individual bank deposits
The table Of statistics and the con
cTusfons OF the bankers who have
studied it are commended to Wash
7 ingtonians as interesting and instTuc-
+ tive reading.

MUCH DONE IN THE CONSER-
WALTON CAUSE.

Clifford Pinehot IN a summary or the
legislation which has been forced
through Congress in the interest of
conservation Of resources enumerates
a number Of important steps IN the
direction OF progress 1t is not always
realized that the agitation over the
waste Of the nations resources already
has exeraed powerful ia-uence and
much actual accomplishment for the
protecuOn of those resources
Mr.. Pinchot points out at the Ma
tiOnal Conservation Association has
substantial c9use for satisfaction in
the progress achieved in the sessicI OF
Congress just closed. In spite of all
opposition, he says, the principles Of
the association have been enacted IN
TO law IN a considerable number OF
cases and are represented in many
bills stiu awaiting actio::. He adds:
More than one avenue o monopolistic
grabbing Of the peoples property mas
Dc done The friends OF The COuserEa-
ton movement are in better position TO
continue tie fight than seemed possible
when the session Of Congress began.
Mr.. Pinehot points out that Congress
passed tho public lands withdrawal
act, including Alaskan coal lands. 1t
was under the authority of this act
that the recent Withdrawals Of public
lands were made.
The omnibus Indian act expressly
authorizes the reservation OF power
and reservoir sites on Indian reserva-
tions. The act for admitting New Mex
ECO and Arizona as States makes sim
liar reservation upon lands granted 20
the new States, while the withdrawal
act expressly includes water power
sites as one Of the purposes for which
the President may exercise the with
drawal power.
The Appalachian and White noun
tain forest bill has again passed the
House and an agreement hes been
reached nder which It viii be finally
voted on in the Senate next February
Is Mr. Pinchot thinks 1t not unlike
~ that It VIII pass.
in addition. there IS the bureau OF
mines bin, calculated TO save waste
IN coal and loss OF human life \ bin
was passed 70 conserve coal by classi-
flying the~surface separately from the
underlying mineral. 8lr. Pinchot SAYS
such steps as these mark real prog
ress. There Is much more 10 be done,
but the friends OF. conservation need
not be discouraged.
