Will NOT INVESTIGATE
CORDOVA COAL PARTY
Department of Justice, 1t Is
Believed, Will Not Begin
Any Prosecutions.

The Department OF Justice, IT. is be-
lieved. will not prosecute the members OF
the coal party" recently held in the har-
Dor of Cordova, Alaska. when it was re-
ported a mob dumped coal into the harbor
as a protest against the delay in the set
tlement of the Cunningham and other
coal claims by the government, and which
is preventing the opening up Of the Alas
kan coal fields.
A report on the case has been received
at the department, and although the At
torney General could not be seen today, 1t
is understood that the department will
not press any charges against those al
legged to have been members of the party
They evidently had an eye TO busi-
ness" said a prominent government Of
fetal in discussing the case, for those
folks who did the shoveling saw to it that
all the coal which went into the sea was
available at low tide"
According to the reports received from
different sources it is said that the party
was we'll organized and composed of the
best citizens of Cordova,' that only a
few tons Of coal at the most was put
overheard into the harbor. and as even
the owners are not making any protest
against the alleged outrage 1t is said
there seems hardly any use OF the De-
part OF Justice officials worrying over the
vestigation. The whole affair is regarded
in government official circles as a fzzle
and to be only given passing notice.

AUTHORIZATIONS PREPARE
TO SEEK RE-SUBMISSIOA

Guthrie, Okla, June 3.-Anti-prohib-
ition leaders in Oklahoma are drafting
plans to take advantage of the recent
United States supreme court decision
on the capital removal case to resub-
NIT the liquor question to the people
again. They intend also to get into
court on that clause of Oklahoma's en-
abling act which makes the old Indian
Territory part of the state dry for
twenty-one years. The courts decision
was that congress could not, in draft
ing an enabling act, curb the states
authority to handle local affairs, such
as the location of capital This, the
anti-prohibition leaders are arguing,
also applies to the liquor question,
holding that congress ha dino power to
compel "dryness" in former Indian Ter
ritory for twenty-one years after state

TAFT PREVENTS
INVESTIGATION
President Holds Money Was Paid For
Unforeseen Emergencies in Dplo-
matte And Consular Service.

Washington, d. c., June "a con
troversy over the executives right tc
withhold confidential papers from q
congressional probing committee was
precipitated in the capitol Friday by
the refusal of Secretary of State Knox
on the instruction of President Taft
to place before the house committee
on expenditures in the state depart.
ment books showing the record of the
payment for the portrait of former
Secretary of State Day. The commit.
tee is seeking to discover what be.
came of the $1,000 balance on the
$2,450 voucher drawn for the payment
of the portrait. Artist Rosenthal re-
ceived only $3.50 for his work, and the
$1,000 is unaccounted for.
The president held that the $2,45O
was paid out of the emergency fund
for unforeseen emergencies in the dip
lomatic and consular service and for
extending diplomatic intercourse with
foreign nations, which congress had
provided need not be accounted for if
the president certifies that an item
should he paid for this fund
President Roosevelt had made a GER
tifcation and President Taft hesitated
to go back of the certifcation.
Furthermore, Secretary Knox ex-
planned to the committee, it was inn
proper to produce the books. because
thereby other undisclosed items Of ex-
penditure would be revealed. Secre-
tary Knox said he was directed to com.
plete his investigation into what be-
came of the money and to report the
facts to the president.
Chairman Hamlin of Missouri
threatened to take the matter to the
floor of the house, A colloquy between
Hamlin and the secretary finally re-
suited in the suggestio nthat the chair
man might be allowed personally to
inspect the particular record. This
course probably will be followed.
Mr.. Hamlin questioned Secretary
Knox closely as to what justification
there was for paying for portrait
out of secret fund set aside for un-
foreseen emergencies and extending
diplomatic intercourse.
Mr.. Knox said it had been the prac.
tice since 1890. He informed the COM
mittee that no trace had yet been found
of the $2.45O voucher which Mr.. Rosen.
thai said he signed in blank after re.
ceiving the $3.50 personal check of for.
mer Chief Clerk Michael, now consul
general to Calcutta.
Senator Root, who was secretary of
state about the time the portrait was
paid for, will testify next Tuesday as
to what he may know about the case.

FOLKS CHARACTERISTIC
ADDRESS ON PUBLIC GRAFT

mean? Is corruption becoming ma
tional disease? Is there something in
our system that gives men that en-
couragement to violate the command
ment Thou shalt not steal?' Is the
government itself in large measure
to blame for this seeming disposition? ?"
when a government in the hands
of monopoly attempts to take from
one and give to another, moral ques-
tion is presented. Wealth, created by
Legislation, in the nature of things,
must be drawn from the public, and it
is unjust for all the people to be taxed
in order that few may profit. A
tariff other than for revenue is mere
ly for the sake of protection.
Let us, in this crisis, be eonserva-
tive in charging wrong doing lest in
justice be caused in charging where
it does not exist, but once sure of the
evil, let us use radical measures in
its determination
