President Taft Finds Chief Glavis
(Jnilty of TJnjiutly Impeaching
tho Integrity of His Su

Albany, N. Y., Sept. 10. President
Tnft has upheld Secretary of the Inte
Tlor Dalllngor In the lntter8 oontro
rersy with Glfford Plnchot of the rec
lamation service und In doing so ha
criticised the methods of Plnchot to
uch an extent that it is expected on
tho presidential train that he will
leave tho government service.
In addition, the president orders the
discharge of L. II. Glavis, chief of

against Balllnger that Plnchot talked
of In his speeches on tho Paciilc coast I
Glavis Is discharged for filing a dlsln-1
tenuous statement unjustly impeach
ing the official Integrity of his supe
rior oilleers.
The president specifically exonerate?
Secretary Balllngcr from the charge ol
using his office for porsonal ends, reit
erates his Interest in the conservation
of natural resources and expresses
confidence that BalUuger also has con
Borvntlon as one of his principal poli
cies. The president says ho agrees with
the secretary of the Interior that con
servation must be carried on within
the law, indicating clearly that In his
opinion Plnchot has been going beyond
tho law in reclamation of land. He
says he will ask from congress legisla
tion that will simplify the work ol
reclamation. Part of his letter on the
Glavis charges is as follows:
On tho ISth day of August last Mr. L.
B. Glavis, chief of field division of the
general land offlco, with headquarters at
Seattle, Wash., called upon me and sub
mitted a report relating to the conduct
it'rJnTirK";!
larly to the action of yourself, Assistant I
becretary Pierce, Commissioner of the
General Land Offlco Dennett and Chief ol
Field Service Schwartz in reference to
th. an f..,t , - , .
land claim in airbWb
Mr. Qlavls' report does not formulate '
his charges against you and tho others,
but by Insinuation and Innuendo as well
as by direct averment he does charge 1
that each one of you while a public of-
fleer has taken steps to aid the Cunning. '
ham claimants to secure patents based
on claims that you knew or have reason
to believe to be fraudulent and unlawful, i
Tho whole record shows that Mr. Glavis i
was honestly convinced of tho illegal
character ox the claims In the Cunning- 1
bam group and that he was seeking evl-1
denoe to defeat the claims. But lt also .
shows that there was delay on his part
In preparing the evidence with which to ,
bring this, with other claims, to hearing 1
and that Justice to the claimants requlr-1
ed more speedy action than tho depart-1
mant, through Mr. Glavis, seems to have '
taken. I
The reading ot the whole record leaves
no doubt that In Ma zeal to convict your
self, Acting Secretary Ptoroe, Commis
sioner Bennett and Mr. Schwartz he did '
not give me we oeooot ot information
ghhtntathirasa8nw1nShhm!
mj do oonsisxem wun an impartial atti- 1
tude on your part toward tlw claims In
queouon.
You are therefore authorized to dis
miss L. It. Glavis from the service ot the
government for filing a disingenuous
statement unjustly Impeaching tho of
ficial integrity ot hie superior officers.
Turning to the Ptncbot controversy,
President Tnft says:
Another tnstajnee In your conduct of the
department which has been mentioned
as indicative of your purpose to block the
general plan of conservation of national
resources Is your refusal to carry out a
contract made In the last administra
tion between the secretary of the Into
rlor and the secretary of agriculture, by
which the Interior department delegated
to the forestry bureau ot the agricultural
department the power and duty to con
serve the foreeU on the Indian reserva
tions, Your declination to carry out the con
traet was made necessary by a ruling of
IteJWtlrJAt ichMi Rrrtnae-
I C".
ment Is a delegation of responsibility nixl
authority for the expenditure of money
which the appropriation by congress for
the Indian bureau did not authorize.
While I agree that it would avoid waste
ful duplication In organization to author
ize the forestry bureau of the agricul
tural department to take caro of and de
velop the forests on Indian reservations,
because the forestry bureau is much bet
ter able, with Its trained mon, to do the
work with efficiency and economy. It Is
plainly necessary, In view of the comp
troller's ruling, to socure congressional
sanction for such co-operation.
Meantime your withdrawal from an un
authorized contract does not furnish the
Slightest basts tor attrtrotlng to you un
friendliness to proper prestation.
In my Judgment, hs is the best friend
of the policy of conservation of natural
resources who insists that every step
taken in that direction should bo within
the law and buttressed by legal authori
ty. Insistence on this is not inconsistent
with a wholehearted and bona tide Inter
est and enthusiasm In favor of the con
servation policy.
From my conferences with you and
from everything I know In respect to the
conduct of your department I am able to
say that you are fully in sympathy with
the attitude of this administration In fa
vor of tho conservation of national re
sources. "I am very much gratified with the
president's disposition of the matter,"
said Secretary of the Interior Ballln
ger when linked to comment on Presi
dent Tuft's letter.

D. Long promises to stop the violation
of the Sabbath protective laws of Mas

The Rev. Dr. Martin D. Knoeland,

"noise, confusion, drinking nnd liquor

Mr. Long wrote to Secretary Meyer
as follows:
"May I suggest (what If I were sec

view of such facts ns Dr. Kneeland
presents) that the department Issue an
order that while the enlisted men of
the navy aro to have n relaxation of a

In his reply Secretary Meyer wrote:

Commander and His Men Remained

and Two Days and Cheer

Berths Harbor, Labrador, Sept. 10.
"We hoisted the stars and stripes
twice at the north polo," suld Matthew
Ilenson, Commnnder Robert B. Peary's
colored lieutenant und the only other
civilized man, according to Peary, who
ever reached the pole.
Ilenson gave an account of the one
night and two days he and Commander
Peary and four Eskimos camped at
DO degrees north latitude. Ilenson per
sonally assisted In raising the Ameri
can Hug, und bu led the Eskimos In
the cheers and nn extra cheer for Old

"Having spent eighteen years with
Commander Peary and a considerable
portion of that time In the arctics,"
said Ilenson, "I have acquired u kuowl-

were given In the Eskimos' own
tongue.
"Commander Peary shook hands all
around, and we had a more liberal
dinner than usual, each man eating as
much as he pleased. Tho Eskimos
danced about and showed great pleas
ure thnt the pole at last was reached.
For years the Eskimos had been trying
to reach that spot, but lt was always
with them Tlquelgh, which translated
means 'Get so far nnd no closer.' They
exclaimed In a chorus, Ting nolgh tl
mah ketlsher,' moaning, 'Wo have got
there at last.' "
Ilenson, who reached tho farthest
north with Peary three years ago, said
that conditions were about the same
ot tins pole as elsewhere m the arctic
circle. All was a solid sea of leo with
a two foot lead of open water two
miles from tho pole. Ttio Eskimos who
went nlong on tho final lap were
Ootah, Eglng Wah, Ouzaueeah and
Slgloo, thc two first named being
brothers. Commander Teary took pho
tographs of Ilenson and the Eskimos
waving flags and cheering.
Continuing his story, Heneon said:
"The report Is absolutoly untrue that
I did not go to the pole. I went th
whole distance side by side with tlio
commander and Jnst ns far ns ho did."
