CONVENTION TO DES MOINES
Republicans Decide to Hold Session
There August 3.
CHAIRMAN WAITS FOR PRIMARY
J. r. Cottrell t'boaen President of
Rtate Association of Thrfbrnif
neaolatloas for Uood Roads
Are Adopted.
(From a Staff Correspondent)
DBS MOINES, J., March -0. (Special
Telegram.) The republican state conven
tion was todsy located in Des Molnea,
August S nxt. The committee took sev-
vtral ballots.- with Ottumwa and Cedar
Rp plilg as oor'prtltors, then swunR to Dos
Molnos. It was decldi-d that the chairman
should not be selected by the committee
ur.ill ' after the primary, when It will be
known what brand of politics to put be
fore the convention.
At the good roads convention held yes
terday, the folding resoloelons wers
passed expressing the sentiment of the
body on . the great need for highway Im
provement: We believe that the time will come, when
the state may be provided with a system
of permanent highways, but we are of
the opinion that this can not to any con
siderable oxtent be brought about for
some years for the reason that public
sentiment Is not yet sufficiently crystal
lised ss to the necesnlty for and the value
of such roads not as to what kind of per
manent roads should be built, and becauso
the people are not yet ready to tax them
selves the amount that would be required
to build permanent highways. Therefore,
be It
Resolved, That we urge the strict en
forcement of the compulsory drug law.
That we commend the action of tl1.se
Iowa cities that are now systematically
dragging the roads from the buxlness dis
tricts to the corporation Htnlt.
That we urge the organization of states
county and Townshop good roads associa
tions. That we endorse the excellent work of
the present highway commission.
That we favor the construction of per
manent culverts and small brldgos of con
crete or stone and to further this woiH we
recommend the enactment of a law auth
orlxlng tha qualified electors of every
townshop to vote. If they choose so to. do,
a special tax for this purpose.
That we advise legislation looking to the
placing of the roads of the state under
trained supervisors, Including the creation
of a state highway commtsxlon, the ap
pointment of a state engineer, and the
office of county engineer, the latter to be
appointed by the Board of Supervisors and
to Irclud In his duties those ot the pres
ent county surveyor, and no person should
be- eligible to appointment except he be
thoroughly skilled in the work of general
road drainage, road, bridge and culvert
building and construction. We recommend
that the county engineer he empowered to
enforce uniform standards of grading,
bridge and culvert building and snnstrtic
tlon. and drainage, and that he have sup
ervision of the entire road work of the
county and the road officers of eyary
township in the county in an advisory and
directory capaolty, under the general di
rection of the board of supervisors.
That we recommend a law requiring the
board or supervisors to submit the propo
sitions to the public for bids for road
structures above a certain sum. and that
the building of such structures rrhall be
under the supervision of the county engi
neer. lows Threshermen Act.
The state convention of the Iowa
threshermen, held yesterday In connection
with the good roads movement, took action
which means an Increase of 60 per cent in
the price to be charged for threshing grain.
It was represented that there are now 25,000
persons in Iowa Interested In the threshing
of grain, and they are closely banded to
gether in a strong organisation. Under
existing conditions they fust have a large
sum for their work. President Cottrell
also advocated a strong committee to see
to It that the Jeglslatur doea not repeal
any of the good .laws which have been se
cured in recent years. It Is also desired
that there shall be law. for better bridges
and more uniformity In the character of
bridges, so that the traction engines will
pass over them easily.
C. Cottrell of Klngnley was elected presi
dent of the State Association of Thresher
men at the conclusion of their meeting.
They resolved: ,
Tha twe are In harmony with th move-
ment for good roads and better bridges, and
that we desire to go on record as being In
favor of such legislation as Is necessary
to provide for a thorough and practical
system of road Improvements, and the in
stitution of a plan of bridge building that
will result in the Installment of bridges In
all parts ot the state that are absolutely
sale.
Ora-antse Amendment Campaign,
It wag decided at the state temperance
convention held today that the association
which is backing the movement be Imme
diately Incorporated with a director In each
district and that headquarters be opened
immediately for carrying on a campaign to
force the political parties to pledge reaub
mission of an amendment prohibiting the
ale of liquor. The convention held here was
one of the largest ever held on this sub
ject and much enthusiasm was manifested.
Across the State Hoad.
Incidental to the good roads meeting held
here there was a conference of men living
in the tier of counties in which Des Moines
located, also Council Bluffs and Iowa
City, for the purpose of planning for at
least one state hlgheway across the state
east and west. About 100 persons met and
formed an organisation, the purpose of
which Is to lay plans for this new road. It
Is expected that plans will be made at once
and some work be done this year, the cost
the be defrayed by the counties and town
hips along the way.
AFFIDAVIT IN
COAL CASE FALSE
(Continued from First Page.)
called out by some criticism of his course
before the committee of congress and he
detailed his position at some length, con
eluding with tha statement that before
leaving Washington he had talked with
President Roosevelt about the whole mat
ter and that the president had commended
his action.
. In his reply to Mr. Balllnger, Secretary
Garfield urgedhlm not to be disturbed
aoout bis position on the coal bills; that
he had always understood It and had told
newspaper men there never had been any
misunderstanding.
Mr. Garfield .aid he had never read Mr.
Balllnger'. testimony before the oongres
sjonal committee, however, until he had
gone out of office.
Senator Nelson questioned th witness
closely a to a statement that Balllnger
had been In error In stating Mr. Garfield's
position a. to the Alaska coal bills. Mr,
Garfield said his recommendations cited
by Mr. Balllnger applied to a general coal
bill and not to the Alaska measure.
"But, as a matter of fact, didn't you
say you were willing to condone fraud If
the fraudulent claimants paid a higher
price based on the classification of the
coal?" asked Senator Nelson,
Effect of New Section.
'The effect of the section which I ro
ommended wa. that If th entire coal bill
passed and the government adopted a new
policy as to coal deposits, there should be
a validation of all entries at a net classi
tied price. Up to S.S09 acre I was willing
that claims should be consolidated and
was willing to condone prior fraud."
Mr. Garfield said th difference In th
old price of $10 aa acre and a classified
price might prove to be a difference be
tween WS.0W and mooo.
Attorney Pepper read to the witness
portion of Secretary Ualllnger's reply-to
the president concerning the charges
against him, wherein Mr. Balllnger de
clared that Mr. Garfield, who had written
President Taft himself, had made no real
effort to li-artv th facts or to understand
his position. lie also said that Mr. Gar
field had highly commended Ms course
while In the govrnment service and that
he could only explain his change ot spirit
to the fact that hla mind had been poisoned
against him by misstatements.
"Mr. Balllnger was In error." said Mr.
Garfield. "I made, every effort to obtain
the facts before writing the president."
Attorney Pepper also read Into th record
an exchange of letter between Secretary
Balllnger and Assistant Secretary Pierce
In August last. It appeared from these
that Senator Guggenheim had asked to
have certain lands at La Junta, Colo., set
apart as an "arid park," the withdrawal
to be made under the supervisory power
aa with water power sites. Mr. Balllnger
directed that the withdrawal be made.
'What is an arid park?," asked Senator
Rout.
"I don't know."
"Maybe it is the same as a dry town,"
suggested Representative Olmstead.
t'o-Operatlv Reclamation Plan.
Mr. Garfield was examined as to the plan
he adopted of co-operating with water
users' associations as to reclamation pro
jects and the Issuance by him of "re
clamation certificates," which came to be
known a "Garfield currency."
The certificates were given as evidence
of work done on projects, the certificates
to be turned In on payment of water
charge when water was delivered on the
land.
secretary Balllnger. acting under an
opinion of Attorney General Wlckersham
stopped this practice. '
Mr. Garfield charged today that neither
Mr. Wlckersham nor President Taft had
the facts and complete Information before
them on which to base a proper decision
as to the certificates.
The witness wa. asked if the S30.00O.O00
Issue of bonds recommended by Pre.sident
Taft was made necessary to relieve hard
ships growing out of the co-operative plan,
lie declared the proposed Issue of bonds
would cover a much wider field of recla
mation than that begun under his ad
ministration of the Interior department
in raci, declared Mr. Garfield, much
to tho surprise of th committee, "I don't
believe It I. necessary to issue any bonds
at all."
"But aren t there hardship, growing out
of the present statu, of the project?'
asked Senator Sutherland.
in inamauai cases, yes; they result
from failure on the part of entrymen to
appreciate the difficulties of developing Ir
rigated lands and from their going on the
land long before tho projects could be
completed and water turned on. They were
constantly warned against doing this and
went at their own hazard. The govern
ment is not responsible for their plight."
Mr. Garfield said he was not certain
that a bond Issue, as now proposed, would
hurry the projects to proper completion
any faster than would be possible under
the old way of raising funds by the sale
of public lands. ':
'Many projects are experimental," said
the witness, "and It Is a serious question
as to whether it would be wise to go faster
than the sal of land allowa . Physically,
the projects could be completed at a much
earlier date by a bond Issue, but I doubt
if it would decrease th cost."
Wlckersham in Error, ,
"But the law, make no provision for
payments in labor .Instead of money, does
It?" asked Senator. Nelson. ' ' . ' . ,
"No." - J '- ' '
The witness then declared that during
the. time the aertlficat. were being issued
there were funds available to carry on the
work. The certificates were In reality, he
said,- simply a method of keeping books.
There was no effort to augment the re
clamation fund by certificates.
Mr. Garfield declared that Attorney Gen
eral Wlckersham had held that the co
operative contract. ,will be valid if there
were funds available for tha work.
"He evidently had In mind the Idea that
there were no fund, available," continued
Mr. Garfield, "when, as a matter of fact,
some 12.000 wa. available all the time."
Attorney Pepper here concluded his ex
amination, but Attorney Brandels Inter
rogated the witness further concerning the
Cunningham claims.
Secretary Balllnger In hi. reply to Presi
dent Taft stated that when he received
Glavls' protest against the clear listing of
the Cunningham claims, he brought the
matter to the attention of Secretary Gar
field as Governor Moore, one of the claim
ants already had asked Mr. Garfield that
the patents be held up and that th. secre
tary agreed with him.
"Do you recall any such conference with
Commissioner Balllnger?" asked Mr. Bran
dels. "I do not. I may have seen Governor
Moore at some time, but to the best of
my recollection, I had no conference with
Mr. Balllnger a. to the patents In the Cun
ningham case."
"So, If the patents Were suspended the
action was taken by Mr. Balllnger or some
subordinates on their Own responsibility?"
asked Senator Nelson. '
"I had nothing to do with it."
"You would have approved of that action
If It had been presented to you, wouldn't
you?"
"Yes, I most certainly would."
"Did you ever know that the Cunning
ham claims had been clear listed?" asked
Mr. Brandels.
"I did not."
"That action would not have met your
approval, would it?"
"Most certainly not."
The witness declared that the Cunning
ham claims were purely a land office mat
ter and there was no occasion for Secre
tary Balllnger to call thern to his attention.
The luncheon recess here was ordered.

INCREASE FOR GENOA SCHOOL
Senate Agrees to Bill Carrying
$70,600 for Indians.
MR. HEYBURN PUTS UP FIGHT
Declare. Best Results Are Wot
Obtained from onreer vat ion
Schools Omahas In Court -of
Claim.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, March 10. (Special Tele
gramsSenator Burkett came to the rescue
of the Genoa Indian school today and se
cured the adoption of an amendment which
gives that school 'a1 total- appropriation for
the coming fiscal year of 7&;600 instead of
153,000 as carried In the house bill.
Senator Burkett's amendment agreed to
by the senate In the passage of the Indian
appropriation bill today provides $2,500 for
general repair, and Improvements; for erec
tion of superintendent's cottage, $4,500; for
erection of employes' quarters, $7,500, and
for enlarging shop buildings, $4,000.
During the discussion of the Indian appro
priation bill this afternoon, Senator Hey
burn of Idaho precipitated a flht on non
reservation schools appropriated for In the
bill, the Genoa school being among the
number to come under Mr. Heyburri's criti
cism. Senator Burkett in the course of his
reply to the Idaho senator said It was . not
possible to have reservation schools, on all
Indian reservations and that nonreservatlon
schools were the outgrowth of an educa
tional proposition for the Indians which Is
most desirable. He said the greatest handi
cap of the Indian so far as his education is
concerned was switching from one uchool
to another. Now that they had started on
a system of education It should not be torn
down hastily, and he pointed out that a
school on a reservation had many diffi
culties to oontend with, probably more
difficulties than were associated with the
white schools, for the Indian was less In
clined to send his child to school than was
the father of a white child; but having onca
started to school, he found statistics-to
show that the Indian, under these condi
tions, was quite as anxious to have his
child go to school as was the white father.
Omaha, and Court ot Claims. ' .
Senator Burkett attached to the Indian
bill today his bill permitting the Omaha
Indians to go to the court of claims for a
settlement of their claims against the gov
ernment. This bill was passed yesterday as
an Independent measure, but rather than
risk Its chances In the house under - the
present rules which govern that body on
suspension day, calendar day and .other
days, the senator thought he would throw
it Into conference and take his chances
with the house conferees in order that early
action might be obtained. Should the house
conftg-eea fall to agree on the Omaha
claim, bill and it should go out, it. status
