Favors Development of
Resources.

William L. Taylor, ex-Attorney-
General of Indiana, is one Of the big
politicians of the East who has
changed his opinion ON the conserva-
tion policy of Clifford Pinchot. Mr..
and Mrs. Taylor are staying at the
Portland Hotel, and it is this trip
through the West that has caused the
ex- attorney General of the Hoosier
state to view the predicament of the
West in an entirely different light
from that entertained before he made
personal investigation of conditions
in the Pacific states. says the Oregon
ian.
This is my first trip through the
West. !" said Mr.. Taylor, and it only
requires a glance to GrasD the situA-
tion. / have an entirely different
view of conservation than when / left
Indiana. The power stored in your
mountain streams can haIdly be
realized. True conservation would
be to develop this immense power
instead of keeping it locked up. OF
course. laws should be passed so that
this great power should not come into
the possession of few corporations
or individuals, but the barring out of
everyone is not the remedy. ! believe
there would be little difficulty in
drafting a law that will allow these
magnificent power sites to be developed
and at the same time prevent them
from being gobbled up by gigantic
corporations. {"
Mr.. Taylor, who is apt at giving
illustrations, sizes up the situation
thus:
"Take for instance, the granting
of street railway franchise in a city.
A street railway with good service
is necessary for the welfare of any
city. That does not mean q franchise
shall be given to corporation that
will not respect the rights of citizens.
Neither does it mean that exactions
should be made that will prevent the
building of streetcar lines. A fran
chise may be granted so that street.
car system will be remunerative to
the corporation owning it, and at the
same time, the rights of the people
for adequate service will be recognized
and granted.
"There is always a dividing line
between the two extremes. 1t would
be of no benefit to prohibit the build
ing OF streetcar lines by extreme con-
servation of the peoples rights. and
it would not be right to exclude the
people's rights in favor of a grasp
ing corporation. So it is with the
conservation of natural resources. A
law should be passed that will allow
your immense water power to be
developed. and at the same time.
protect the people. That Is conserva-
tion of the natural resources.
81 believe that if every man in the
East who favors radical conservation
should visit the West and study the
situation as l have done, would change
his views. We in the East do not
comprehend the vast resources of the
West This trip has been a revela-
tiOn to me and such a trip would be a
revelation to evIey other man in the
East who has not seen the West as
have seen it. am convinced that
the West should have something to
say about a conservation policy"

FEAR UPRISING IN
CORTEs ELECTION
Militant Element of Republicans
Already Lining Up Their

BARCELONA. April 11,--There Is
widespread fear among the spanish
royalists following the announcement
by the government of the dates for
the election of members of the cortes,
that the election win precipitate an
other national uprising against the
monoraeity. --
The militant element among the
republicans have already begun lining
up their forces, on the theory that
with fair ballot they VIII win. but
they do not believe that they viii get
such a ballo. II they are defeated by
fraud they think they will have the
support of the masses of Span1ards
and the sympathy of liberty lovers
abroad in resorting to force. II they
should win at the polls. their first step
will be to overturn the monarchy by
legal means.
The hope of the republicans Is
Alexandra Lerroux. who assumed their
leadership following the execution OF

is himself a member of the Cartes

was Ferrer. His membership makes

Mrs. Tenney.

Attorney William L. Royal, coun-
sci for Mrs George Tenney in her suit
for separation from her husband, ap-
peared before Judge Daniel Grinnan,
OF The Chancery Court. Monday morn
ing. ana asked that he be allowed
one-third of the funds set aside by
the court for counsel fees.
Col. 10 Lane Stern, who, with At
torney A w. Patterson, had been con-
nected with the case, said that he rep
resented Mrs. Tenney no longer, but
asked that the judges decision re-
garding the distribution of the funds
be postponed until Wednesday, when
Mr.. Patterson can appear in his own
behalf, being now in New York.
MIR. Royal asked that Mr.. Tenney
be required to meet the further ex-

new Developments in the case, Mr..
Tenneys attorney having recently Ill

CASES AGAINST TRUSTS
ORDERED To Be REHEARD
Appeals of Standard Oil and
American Tobacco Companies
Restored to Docket

WASHINGTON. April lion ac-
count of the fact that there are only
seven members of the Supreme Court
now sitting, Chief Fuller to-day an
nounced that the appeal of the stand
ard OIL Company in the dissolution
brought by the United States will be
restored TO the docket and be re-heard.
The tobacco trust cases were also
ordered to be re-heard.
The chief justice made the announce
ment in the briefest terms. shortly ar
ter the court convened to-day. It
means that there win be no fl4lal de-
of the big antitrust cases
until next fall. The court will ad-
journ for the term probably on May
the re-hearing to take place before that
time.
That the court is irreconcilably di-
vided on the merits of both the Stan
dard Oil and tobacco trust cases IL
the general opinion. Those most init
mately associated with the work OF the
court believe that up to the time OF
Justice Brewers death the eight JUS
tices Of the tribunal stood I to 4.
His removal from the bench resulted
In breaking Of that tie.
The decision to re-hear the litiga-
tion was arrived at because there IL at
present only one justice on the bench
above the six required by law to con-
stitute quorum, and because the court
felt that public interest required a
larger membership to weigh the most
important suits tho government has
ever instituted against trusts. -.

According to information from Gin

the two railroads, Seing purchased for
joint operation, are really competing
railroads through the same territory.
and that, therefore, the law prevents
any sort of merger. joint operation or
combined control of the two. Some
time ago an effort was made by the
Hooking Valley to purchase the Ka-
nawha and Michigan. but this was
blocked by court proceedings.
Those behind the suit just entered
