WASHINGTON STIRRED BY
FAILURE IN S.P. SUITS
(By the Federated Press. J


Washington, Feb. 23.-What is
described here as the most flagrant
piece of corporation favoritism that
can be charged against a public Of
ficial for the last 20 years is the re-
fusal of Attorney General Palmer to
carry the oil land cases against the
Southern Pacific railway to the SUI
preme court.
Many years ago the federal gov
ernment granted certain lands to
that railroad and specifically ex-
cluded land on which oil might be
found. Oil was found there and the
government in late years entered
suit for the return of the lands.
Lower courts in California, con-
trolled by the corporation, decided
against the government. Attorney
General Gregory carried one case in
volving about 5000 acres to the SUI
preme court and won it.
Similar cases had been won, and
it was regarded as certain that the
navy oil supply would be protected
Now Palmer refuses to appeal these
other cases. Southern Pacific stock
jumped Ia points when his decision
became known. The New York
Suns financial writer estimates that
the decision doubles the total value
of Southern Pacific stock.

Expect Senate Will Pass Esch-
ClIn1n1i1s Bill, Returning Roads
(Special United Press Wire J

:.
Washington, Feb. 23.--With the
passage Saturday by the house of the
Esch Cummins railroad bill against
the determined opposition of the un-
ion labor interests, the battle over
the bill was shifted this morning to
the senate, where, it was generally
believed, the bill would be accepted,
possibly today.
A strong possibility that even
should the bill pass the senate in the
same form as it passed the house,
it might meet with the veto OF Presi-
dent Wilson, also developed. There
was, however, no apparent reason for
belief that the president will veto
the bill.
Although it was stated the fight
Of the labor leaders had not been
abandoned and an effort would be
made to secure defeat of the bill in
the senate, but little hope was eX-
pressed that labor's effort would
prove successful.
The labor leaders on Saturday
carried their fight against the bill
to the White house. In a letter to the
president, the union leaders attacked
the labor clauses Of the bill as wei
as the guaranteed return of 5 u pei
cent. They also practically refused
to submit their wage demands to the
arbitration tribunals established by
congress, as Wilson proposed.

cred a rousing Washington's birth
day address and was cheered to the
echo.
The crowd which attended Mr..
Dunm's address set q new record both
for attendance and for enthusiasm.
The meeting was held under the au-
spices of the Kalispell Daily Bee,
which freely advertised the speaker
as tho man most hated by the in
terests and their so-called '1oyalty"
league.
Every reference to former United
States District Attorney b. X. Wheel
err was wildly cheered, and many
times the speaker was compelled to
halt his flow Of remarks until the
noise died down. 1t was the most
enthusiastic gathering ever held here.
On Saturday evening Mr.. Dunn ad-
dressed a gathering of 800 railroad
sllopmen at Masonic hail, Whitefish,
also under the auspices of the Kali
spell Bee. He spoke for more than
two hours and half, after which his
audience refused to leave and urged
that the address be continued
Both at the E<alispell and at the
Whitefish meetings mention of the
names of Attorney Wheeler and Eu-
gene Debs were cheered to the echo
The extent Of the enthusiasm at both
meetings proved a surprise to every
one and indicated the residents Of
Montana are quite ayowedly "Bol-
shevik.'
