Washington, Feb. 27.-"If we
can't govern ourselves, let us have a
king" was the meat of an address by
RaWner, of Maryland, in the senate
today, speaking to the resolution for
the direct election of United States
senators.
81 would rather trust the people
than a legislature" said Rayner
"and consider that the carrying
out of this resolution would be the
greatest political reform in genera
ton.
"If the people haven't got the in
telligence and the capacity to select
their own representatives, then we
had better submit a constitutional
amendment and change the govern
ment to a monarchy. If the people
must have political slave masters, let
us invest them with royal power, for
1t will have been shown that the re-
public Is a failure.
zone senator has said that the res
olution before this chamber would
wreck the constitution and founder
the ship Of state. venture to say
that no amendment will ever be made
TO the constitution tina will impair
the spirit of that instrument.
The ship of state will easily wealth
er a gale that has practically spent
itself in this chamber 1t may be
necessary to change pilots, to jetti-
son part of the cargo, the shores may
be strewn with stranded hulks, but
armed manhood and courage, the
honor of the nation and the ship of
state are safe"

GREAT CROP
FRUIT GROWERS GET TOGETHER
AND DISCUSS SITUATION
FRUIT CROP PROMISES TO BE
LARGEST EVER RAISED IN THE
VALLEY.

A large number of fruit growers
held an enthusiastic meeting at the
building of the Salem Fruit Union
Saturday afternoon at which crop
conditions in general were discussed
and also plans with relation to the
handling of the crop this year. The
sentiment seemed universal that this
years crop would exceed by consier-
able that of last year and it devel-
oped also that already more has
been pooled than the whole crop
handled last year.
The feature of the session was an
interesting and instructive address by
F. w. Graham, Western Industrial
and immigration Agent for the Great
Northern. Mr.. Graham dwelt par
ticularly upon the good which was
being accomplished in the way Of
publicity and advertising by the Ore
gon Exhibit car.
Informal addresses were made by
A. LaFollette, George Weeks, R. W..
Hogg, w. B. Frlnk and C. 0. Consta-

THE SENATE
GETS AFTER
SECRETARY
INSISTS THAT THE SECRETARY
OF THE NAVY SHALL TELL
WHAT HE KNOWS ABOUT CIV
ING OUT INFORMATION ABOUT
AMERICA NBATTLESHIPS.

Washington, Feb. by the
passing this afternoon in the senate
of resolutions offered by Senator La
Folette, the state and navy depart
ments must report to that body wheth
er naval secrets were revealed to the
Argentine Republic as an inducement
to place with American concerns con-
tracts for the building of two battle
ships.
The resolution affecting the state
apartment was amended, and it will
be asked to make repot, unless in
compatible with the public inteests. :"
There were no restrictions con-
corning the navy department and
the resolution demanded specific in
formation whether battleship plans
No. "a and 35, secrets of fire control
and book specifications, all marked
confidential, were revealed to Argen-
tina or the Bethlehem Steel Company
The senate also wants to know
whether plans for submerged tor
pedo boats were given out.
Senator Kean offered protest to
the resolution calling for a report
from the secretary of state. This, he
said, would be an unusual proceed
ing. Senator La Folette declared
that the situation was an unusual
one, and required unusual action.
"If a resolution is at all neces-
sary," said al Folette, "it is be-
cause the department officials i'm
properly construed the public inter
ests, and no discretion should be left
to them in such case. If the Off
cials of either department gave a
foreign government confidential infor
nation concerning the plans for
American batleships, they manifestly
showed that they have little regard
for the interests of the public, and
nothing whatever should be left to
their discretion"
Senator La Folette opposed the in
sertion in the state department res
olutlon of the words unless incom-
patible with the public interests.
The amendment then was adopted
and the resolution was carried by a
vote of "A to 2S.

Further reports relative to petit
tions praying for the pavement of
streets are expected to be submitted
tonight by the committee of streets to
the council; and in view of this and
the further fact that bids are to be
opened for the pavement Of Asylum
Avenue and that assurance has been
given that the special water commit
tee will be ready to report relative
to its negotiations looking to the pur-
chase Of the plant of the Salem water
company the meeting this evening
promises to be of special interest to
everyone interested in civic improve
ments and in securing for the city a
system of pure water.
Bids To Be Considered.
The street committee will make a
favorable report on a petition asking
for the pavement of High street from
Court to the north line of Mill Creek
with bitulithic and the recorder will
no doubt be instructed to advertise
for bids. Reports, it is also under
Stood will be submitted relative to
the pavement of other streets but
their exact nature is unknown.
The bids to be considered are for
Asylum Ayenue-its pavement with
bitulithic from Twenty-fourth street
to the city limits and on to the asy-
lum grounds. The bids will come
from the Warren Construction COM
pany and as the street committe has
been holding street paving up for
the past month or so with the view of
securing concessions from the COM
pany, the fruits of its labors will be-
come known this evening when the
bids are considered.

that body was given assurance by
Councilman Durbin that the special
committee appointed to negotiate
with the water company for it's plant,
and of which he is the chairman, will
report tonight The committee has
had several conferences with the en-
gineer of the company this week and
is now, no doubt, in a position to
give a report which will serve as an
Intelligent guide to the council in
taking action with regard to the pur-
chase of this plant The committee
has had the subject under considera-
tion for month or more but has
been unable to report for first one
reason and then another. The mat
ter was originally referred to a COM
mittee consisting of the new council
men in order that they might become
conversant with the plant before vot-
ing on its purchase That committee
made recommendations as to the
sum which should be paid for the
plant and the subject was referred
back to it with instructions to nego-
tiate on the subject.
Both subjects-the street improve
ment and the purchase of the water
plant-are of great interest to the
people. The majority are in favor of
both and have patiently endured the
delays caused by the Investigations
of the committees.

Akron, o., Feb. 27.-The railroads
for the people is the gist of a propo-
sition advanced here today by Ohio
c. Barber, millionaire head OF the
match trust, in one Of the most re-
markable statements in recent Amer
lean politics. Barber today wrote all
congressman proposing that the gov
ernment take over the railroads, is
suing three per cent bonds for all
railroad securities. His proposal, as
advanced to the congressman, is as
follows:
"a fair solution Of the present
railroad mixup would be to consoll-
date all the railroads into one sys-
tenn, capitalize them at their pres
ent value, and thus give the stock
holders and the bondholders justice.
Provision ought to be made against
any increase in the present capitall-
zation and a rate Of annual dividends
not exceeding three per Acent, should
be fixed with the government guar
anteeing them.
'"The bonds, under this plan, would
be perpetual and, the principal and
interest being guaranteed by the
government, they would speedily be
valued at considerably advanced
price. They should be issued in pop
ular denominations, from $25 up,
creating for all classes guarantee
through the necessary establishment
of large gold reservoirs to fortlfy
the issue.
"The government should have au-
thority to call at par from any hold
ings by individuals or companies any
amount in excess Of $1,O0O,0OO and
to distribute it through postofflces,
postal banks and national banks to
small subscribers at pa- and accrued
