POSTAL TELEGRAPH
 SUIT IS DISMISSED
Attorney General Daughcrs Drops Case Brought by EN-PostmaStcr
 Burleson for S2, 100000.

New York. April 2S.--The action Of
 Attorney General Daugherty in dis.
 missing the governments suit against
 the Postal Telegraph Cable company | for S2,400,000 claimed as "eXccss earnings" during the period of con
 trol by the government, is regarded az q great victory for the telegraph com
 pany and a complete yindicaton of its policy during the war, says il statement given out by Vice. President Reynolds
 He says. This suit was instlgated by Postmaster General Burleson. and the statement of MT, Daugherty in which he expressed the opinion that the government cannot successfully prose $ cute this suit in view Of the facts and the law" is construed by officials of the Postal Telegraph as bearing out their contention that MT. Burleson's attitude was arbitrary 10 a degree ex- tremely unfair and unwarranted by the facts in the case.
 It was explained today by an of ficer of the Postal Telegraph that the suit grew out of Mir. Burloson's re- fusal to deal with that company on the same basis on which he dealt with other communication companies, in- cluding the Western Union Telegraph company and the American Telephone ana Telegraph. In other words, the Postal Telegraph company claimed this was discrimination. The act un- der which the wire companies were taken over by the government, unlike the act providing for federal opera ton Of the railroads, did not provide formula for computing the compen- sation which was to be paid them. In the cases of the Western Union and the American Telephone and Tee- graph the then postmaster general ac- cepted their earnings statements and even in readiustment allowed them amounts far in excess of their actual earnings during the period of con- trol. With the Postal Telegraph. however, Mir. Burleson refused to al- low that company to retail all of it's earnings, demanding that a sum of approximately S2,400, ,000 which was earned by the Postal during the per- iod of federal control be turned over to the national treasury. This the Postal Telegraph fatly refused to do on the ground that MT. Rurleson was endeaVoring to confiscate approxi mately sixty per cent of it's earnings. and the company insisted vigorously that 1t had been singled out for un- Just treatment, and in direct contra ventlon to what had been accorded it's rivals
 A bitter controversy developed, and finally few days before ex-Postmas- ter General Burleson left office, he in stituted a suit by the legal department of the post office against the Mackay companies. It is this suit which At- torney General Daugherty now has decided to drop, and his action is re- garded by Postal Telegraph officials as fully sustaining their position and a complete victory for the company.

Traveller, Humorist and Lecturer,
 Tells Of the Great Northwest

John A, Erskine and stephen Robb were elected Chamber Of Commerce directors to serve for three years, Mayor A, NJ, Paonessa and Attorney Morris D, Sake for two years and John Contraras and Charles Mueller for one year, at the joint meeting with the Chamber of Commerce. members and the American society of Mechani- cal Engineers last evening.

 The meeting was held in the Centra, Junior High school and was addressed by Frank Branch Riley, who comes hero representing the states of Ore gon, Washington and British Colum- bia. MT. Riley, who is said to be "a wonder as a lecturer and humorist, spoke on "The Lure of the Great Northwest" About 200 people were present.
 Eloquent Speaker.
 All tho beauties of the northwestern section of this country and the south western corner of Canada were painr- ed in glowing colors by MT. Riley. He illustrated his lecture with 2Sb stereoptican slides. The gigantic trees in the vast forests, salmon fish ing in the Columbia; the perpetua, snows on Mount Hood and the flowers on Mount Ranier, the verdure capped crater of an extinct volcano, now filled with water and framed in a nest of beautiful foliage, green trees and fragrant flowers; were shown, not only in visible pictures but in woro pictures, of the kind that only an art ist like MT Riley can paint.
 Industrial Life.
 Not all of the lecture was given to eloquent description of the natural beauties of the Northwest but its in- dustrial advantages were explained in detail, its navigation facilities, its rail- road accommodations and its vast numbering interests were described.
 Forests in Danger
 So fast are the towering trees of the Oregon forests being leveled to the ground, according to the speaker that 50 years from now will see them depopulated of these famous mon- archs of the timberands.
 Trees are being cut down four times as fast as they are growing he said, and trees which have stood for cen tury after century until they are al- most 1000 years old, are falling, help less preys to the unsuitable maw of the inevitable sawmil.
