SPEAKER CLARK
PRAISES PAYNE:
Paws Warm Tribute to Late New
York Representative in
Memorial Services.

Washington. Feb. Speaker Champ
Clark paid a tribute to the sterling
qualities of the late Representative
Serene f.. Payne, of New York, at me-
mortal services in the House to-day.
Everybody knew that Mr.. Payne was
a man of ability and a strong debater,"
said Speaker Clark. "Those OF us who
had opportunity TO study him closely
knew that he possessed vast store OF
information, particularly on the tariff.
No wonder. for he was a student and
participated in five revisions Of the
tariff.
"On a trip from New York to Wash
ington | had Mr.. Payne as a fellow pas
senger. He spoke most entertainingly
of Thurlow Weed, William II. Seward,
Horace Greeley, Horatio Seymour, Gov
ernor Morgan, Roscoe Conkling, Samuel
Sullivan Cox, Henry J. Raymond and
other New York worthless Of past gem
Grafton.
THAT trip laid the foundation for a
close personal friendship between Mr..
Payne and myself, which grew stronge:
and more tender with the passing years
till the day of his death. He was .he
most distinguished member of the
House to die in harness, as no doubt
he wished to die, after the death Of
Governor Dingley."
Representative Fitzgerald presided,
and several New York Representatives
eulogized their late colleague.

WATER POWER BILL
STRANGELY ALTERED
Nature Lovers Trying to Learn
What Part Stuart GibbOney
Had in Changes.

Washington, Feb. Mature lovers
are trying to find out what part Stuart
Gibboney, one Of the Wilson Demo
cratic leaders Of New York State, had
in the changing OF one Of the admin
istration conservation bills now before
Congress. -,
As originally introduced, this bill
proposed the conservation OF the wa
ter power resources of the Western
states and their development for the
public use. The Secretary OF the In
terror was empowered to lease to citi-
zens or TO associations or corporations
any part Of the public lands OF the
United States for not longer than hfty
wears for water power purposes, etc
The Secretary had the discretionary
right TO refuse leases in the Grand
Canyon and Mount Olympus.
As the bill now stands, after coming
out Of committee, it alarms individuals
and associations interested IN the
preservation Of the Grand Canyon and
other scenic wonders. for the Seere-
tary of the Interior, instead OF having
discretionary power IN the granting
of leases, is directed" 10 make these
leases. The right of the Secretary 70
make the terms and conditions OF the
leases is also eliminated, so that any
person complying with sucn genera
regulations as the Secretary may nix
can get a lease of water power rights
in the Grand Canyon II the bill as
now framed passes Congress.
II Ia known that Mr.. Gibboney spent
nearly two weeks in Washington and
that while he did not appear openly,
before the Senate committee when nad
the bill in charge he was very busy
man around the Capitol and at the In,
terror Department. 1t is under 900
that he represented some New YORK
clients actively affiliated with. II not a
part Of the water power trust OF the
West. He appeared before the Seere-
tary of the Interior and urged, on pc
half of his clients. that changes De
made in the measure.
Secretary Lane. who is an ardent
conservationist and was chiefly respoh-
sible for the drawing of the bill, OPP
posed any change in its provisions
Nevertheless changes were made.
Should the bill come up in the Sen,
ate-of which there is little likelihood
and be passed, officials of the lnte-
rior Department hope the obnoxious
changes will be stricken out IN the
House. On the House committee are
several ardent conservationists, who. u
is understood. will not agree 20 bill
containing such provisions as the one
row before the Senate. Nature lover.
and others opposed TO the grabbing OF
scenic wonder spots by the water power
trust of the West fear that similar
hill will be introduced if a special SEES
sion 10 held.
