The only knowledge I have at first hand is lmited to writ- iogs that are not disputed.” Questioned as to the reprimand he gave Assistant Law Officer Shaw and Assistant Forester Price, Mr. Pinchot admitted that At Lieart” he approved of the motives of the two In doing what they did, but aid not approve of thelr method of doing it. Mr. Pinchot denled that elther he or any of his peoplo owned stock in the Poca- hontes Coal company. “The family has some stook In a coal company tm Llinofs,” he added, “but I have vou" Fairly Fricndly with Ballinger, Mr. Pinchot said that up to the time he sent Glavis to President Taft the relations between himselt and Mr, Ballinger hed been “fairly friendly, not more than that.” He was not more friendly because he knew Mr. Ballinger's viéws as to conserva- tion were different trom his own. “Then you were unfriendly?" “No, 1 distrusted him." 7 “You mean Qistrusted his poliofea?” “I distrusted his policles and what he would d “80, Mr. Pinchot,” sald Mr. Vertrees, “after all that statement you made to the committee when you took the stand, all you can oite against Mr. Ballinger, of your own knowledge is the letter of November 15 to the president?” “I sald I expected to prove some of the things I charged by other witnesses." Referring to his testimony that Mr. Bal- linger as commissioner of the land office DProtested against the creation of the Chu- Each forest in Alaska in which some of the Cunningham claims are located, Mr. Pin- chot sald he had never read Mr. Ballin- Rer's letter of protest and did not know what reasons he gave Says Ballinger is Hostile. Mr. Vertrees: “Don’t you think It would have been only falr to have read it before submitting it here with the Inferences that might be drawn from your testimony?" M. Pinchot: “My knowledge of Mr. Ballinger's posi- tion was based on an Interview with him in Mr. Garfleld's office and I understand it to be hostile to what we have since come to call conervation.” Mr. Pinchot declared that while the letter of protest had been on file with the com- mittes for some time, a regulation of thé committes permitting counsel only to ex- amine the documents had prevented his reading 1t." © " A long dfscussion ‘ensued as to the 'modi- fication of the rule, but the matter was put over for decision in executive session. Attorney Brandeis ardse to remark the order of the committee had worked a great hardship on counsel. ‘When Representative Denby stated that The Smartest Spring Suits for Women in Omaha Lat $17.50..

Mr. Pinchot was asked to read the letter. When he had concluded, Mr. Vertress wsked: . “Does that letter Indieate hostiltty o the general poliey of conservation?” “In my judgment it does.” “Point out a single statement to thst Mr. Pinchot sald it was impossible to make judment on & single statement. The whole thing had to be taken together. The witness was asked if it was not known when Mr. Garfield withdrew the huge tracts of lands for water power sites that nine-tenth of the lands so withdrawn were not needed and wotld have to be re- stored. Mr. Pinchot sald he 4id not know the ex- act figures. Me would not admit that the large withdrawals were more than neces- sary, however. The withdrawals were made large be- cause there had not been time to make a proper investigation. Ranger Stations for Power Sites. The witness frankly stated that it had been his policy to withdraw lands for forest ranger stations when they were not needed for that purpose, but were withdrawn to prctect possible power sites. “So that was your poMcy and Secretary Gurfleld's “Yes, and President Roosevelt's and Seo- retary Wilson's.” Mr. Vertrees spent some time with the witness as to the charge that Mr. Ballinger had decelved the president regarding an opinion of the comptroller of the treasury on the subject of agreement between the forestry service and Interlor department regarding Indlan lands. Ho brought out the fact that & eopy of the comptroller's decision referred to by Mr. Ballinger had been sent to the presi- dent. ““There I8 nothing here to show the presi- dent read that decision,” declared Mr. Pin- chot, “and the unavoldable inference is that Mr. Ballinger deceived the president hecause the president said in his letter to Mr. Ballinger on September 13, Your d lnation to carry out the contract was mad necessary by a ruling of the comptroller. The witness contended that the declsion sent to the president did not cover the co-operative agreement as to Indian lands, Ballinger's Statement Fatr, Senator Flint asked the witness If the statement submitted by Mr. Ballinger in regard to the co-operative agreement was not a fair one and If the papers submitted were not all that should have been sub- mitted. “I know of no other documents that should have been sent.” “And the statement was a falr one?” “Pretty falr—from Mr. Ballinger's point of view." Attorney Pepper: “But s there anything In the statement to show that the comptroller continued to pass accounts under the agreement?” Mr. Pinchot: X - “No. And I understand that within the last two weeks he has approved some of these accounts.” Mr. Vertrees, in reply to questions from members of the committee and to clear up & misunderstanding, stated that the co- operative agreement whioh Mr. Ballinger volded was one by which Indian office eri- ployes had been placed under the Absolute control of the forest service, » He sald there had never been any ques: tion as to the reimbursement of funds ‘to one department from another for services rendered by that department. It was the @elogation of authority ‘and. control- to Wwhich Mr. Ballinger called attention and in which he belleved himself to have been upheld by the comptroller. The luncheon recess here was ordered. Meaning of Love Letter, Mr. Vertrees and Mr.. Pinchot spent nearly an hour discussing the meaning of & lotter written by Speclal Agent Love con- cerning s 'talk- with Mr. Ballinger. The letter had previously been gone into in detall while Glavis was on the stand. The witness and the attorney could not agree, Mr. Pinehot contending that the letter constituted an.unfavorable report on the Cunningham claims and Mr. Vertrees contending that ft simply set forth the fact that Love was calling attention to a construction of law by Ballinger, which was more strict than the courts had held. Mr. Vertrees spent some time with the witness on the subject of the sending of forest rangers to agrioultural colleges, seeking to show that Mr, Pinchot had adopted this policy without the knowledge or consent of Secretary of Agriculture Wilson. The men were sent to colleges in large numbers, their salaries and expenses being pald while there. Mr. Pinchot gald his “impression” was that he had offce spoken to Secretary Wil- son about the matter, but he was not will- ing to swear to it. Letters Read Into Record. Mr. Vertrees read a letter addressed by Secretary Wilson to the comptroller of the treasury, saying he had Jlearned of the plan of sending the rafigers to college after Mr. Pinchot had left the service. The comptroller held the plan to be ille- sal Mr. Pinchot sald he thought the subject had been erroneously presented to the comptroller. Thereupon Mr. Vertrees put the whole correspondence between the comptroller and the secretary into the records.

Kelty of Cedar Raplds a request for an order for extension of a spur of the Rock Island road to accomo- date his blsiness. “‘Apparently,” he writes, “I have been unfortunate in trying to con- tinue a business that interferes, to a cer- tain extent at least, with the private busi- ness or side deals of certain raliroad of- ficials and as an individual I chn get no attention what ever from them.” Refused a Pardon. The Stats Parole board has refused to recommend a ,pardon for Charles Owen, who has just completed a six-year term in prison for forgery and is starting a five-year term for having sworn falsely on his trial that He had never before been in prison. The ‘records were dug up and it was shown he had in fact served four previous terms from Cass, Wayne and Un- fon countles.” He now claims 'that it was his twin brother, who has since been Iynehed, that served those terms. The parole board would not accept this ex- planation. Wil Retarm to Ministry, It s anfiounced that Dr. A, B. Storns, who has just s head of the state callege, will' return to the ministry. The State board will ndt select a successor for some time. The controversy will be Im- mediately re-opemed and the partisans of varjous persons who are eligible will take an active interest. Both Prof. Curtiss and both will be strongly urged. Cutting Down at Ames. The State Board of Education has di- rected that the classes of sub-freshmen be abolished at the state college after the present term.

Charles H.

Dablman Openly Opposed. So far Mayor Dahlman is the only dem- ocratic candldate for governor who has announced his opposition to the Bryan liquor program. Governor Shallenberger has not yet endorsed county option, being con- tent to stand on the 8 o'clock closing law. But by those who pretend to know and without the facts being - from official sources, it is sald that those who are for the Bryan program will not be content with an endorsement of the § o'clock clos- ing law. The candidate for the democratic nomi- nation for governor who receives the sup- port of this element of the party must declare that he will sign & county option bill. The excuse offered by the Douglas sen- ators in the matter of the initiative and referendum’ that they would not promise to vote for a bill they had never seen, it is ®aid, will not avall a candidate for gov- ernor on the democratio ticket. The bill s to be prepared in advance and it s sald it will be ready to show to the canddates and the public in the near future. This will force the candidate to say yes or no. Six from Do County. Among the members of the legislature who signed the pledge or pledged them- selves to vote for the initiative and refer- endum If the governor would call the extra session of the legislature weer six mem- bers from Douglas county. The three senators wrote they would not vote tor & bill which they had not seen, but that after seelng the proposed law they might change their minds. That is as far as they were committed. Those who pledsed themselves to vote for the bill the governor desired were Con- nolly, Shoemaker, Butt, Howard, Holmes and Boland. The last named did not sign the paper, though as spokesman for him, Mr. Connolly $aid Boland had glven his pledge. Thomas, Btoecker and Kraus re- fused to sign. All of which s sald to be a matter of record in the office of the Rovernor. HOGS HIGHER AT ST. JOSEPH Top Price is $0.90, Which is 7 1-2 Cents Above Highest Pre- vious Record. ST.
