Downfall of Taft Is Predicted

MENT OF FORESTER
Death Knell of Republican Party Is
Said to Be Sounded Because
of Controversy—Lead-
(Contt mcd from Part) OM)
defeat which it sustained yesterday at
the hands of the combined insurgent
nnd Democrat enemies in the adop
tion of the N orris amendment to the
BaUluger-Plntitiot resolution taking
from speaker (Cannon the right to ap
point the. oom^ilttee, but will rally its
forties Cor a finvlsh fight when the time
arrives for the, house to choose the
members of the. investigating body. It
expects then to muster sufficient force
to name practictilly the same commit
tee which would have been- chosen
had Speaker Cannon been left to make
the selections. \
What M.ay Be Done
, The manner of accomplishing this
lias not been determined. The rules
'committee may bring in a. special rule
of Komi- sort suited to the occasion,
placing all the powvr necessary in tin
hands or the house organization to
. accomplish what is needed. !
Nothing will be definitely done until
th« s--enato disposes of the resolution
and President Taft signs It, a week or
more hence. .
The dismissal of Forester Pmchot
nnd the victory of the combined insurg
ent Republicans and Democrats was
the sole topic at the capitol today prior
to the convening of the house, at noon.
Tin y was much reluctance to discuss
to* ihe public press the official "clean
intr out" the forestry bureau, but
I.ilk was freer with reference to the
flffni yesterday on the floor of the
house. !
|i"rom tlio supporters of Speaker Can
non it was denied that the insurgent
victory was in any way a triumph over
the speaker. It was pointed out that
the whole controversy was an adminis
tration tight, that the resolution itself
was the one desired by the president,
and that the speaker was in no way
concerned. .
■ In fart, he was personally glad to be
relieved of the responsibility of naming
the investigating committee, which i
could only bring him critism from one
Bide or the other, it was said.
"*~Y Lack of Confidence
r;ei«i. tentative Norris of Nebraska,
author'lf yesterday's amendment tak
ing from 'he speaker the right to name
the Investigation committee, had no
doubt that the vote of the house
showed a lack of confidence in Mr.
Cannon.
."That illustrates one thin? to th»
country unmistakably, and.tnat is that
. the members of the house 'do not trust
~"Speaker Cannon," ho said.
"Personally I. had no interest in the
controversy in which Secretary ■ Bal-
II tiger and Mr. Pinchot arc involved,
and no inclination one way or the oth
er. I did not believe the speaker should
name the committee, and thus prejudice
in advance the investigation in favor of
one of the principals in the affair, and
a majority of the house took the same
view. It was a vote of lack of confi
dence in Speaker Cannon, and cannot
be construed in any other way." *
The insurgents were, Inclined to the
view that the time was not ripo for
expressions of opinion as to the wis
dom of President Taft'a action in dis
missing Pinchot and his assistants.
While nearly all members of the
senate talked confidentially to newspa
per men concerning the situation, they
lorbade the publication of their .state
ments.
From the private expressions of
opinion, however, the idea seems to
prevail that Vinchot must have be
lieved that If he continued in the gov
ernment service he would have been
trammeled to a certain extent in tho
Hiving of testimony before the con
fct'PSßional investigation committee.
Not all of Mr. Pinchot's friends in
congress—and it Is admitted on all
sides that ho has scores of sympathiz
—thought he was justified in pre
cipitating his official decapitation.
Personnel Immaterial
One of the insurgents In the senate
ho has been a particularly warm
friend of Mr. Pinchot said it made lit
tle difference whether the house or
Speaker Cannon appointed the house
members of the Investigating com
mittee and that the personnel of the
entire committee was of little conse
quence to either of the principals to
the Balllnger-Pinchot controversy.
It was argued that the very fact
that' the inquiry was to be made In
public would prevent a whitewash, for
it Was well known that the public was
bo intensely interested In the proceed
ing that it would judge for itself and
the. decision, If it was to be .final,
would be rendered by the people.
Oeorge P. McCabe, the solicitor of
the department of agriculture, called
on Mr. Pinchot in his office early in
the day and presented to him a letter
from Secretary Wilson, which desig
nated Mr. McCabe as acting forester.
. Albeit F. Potter, an assistant for
ester in the service, who had previous
ly been designated by the secretary to
relieve Mr. Pinehot as forester, being
in the west and not able to return for
several days, it became necessary this
morning to name someone else in his
place. \ • Mr. Pinehot gave Mr. MoCabe
; a hearty welcome.
Employes' Ovation
' .As Mr. Pinehot was about to leave
the building the scores of employes
herein gathered in the assembly room
on the top floor. Thither went Mr.
Pinchot, his entrance signalized by
deafening applause.
No candidate returning from a suc
cessful campaign ever was greeted by
a more enuthsiastlc demonstration
than that accorded to the late forester.
';■ Mr. Pinehot bade farewell to all who
filed by.
: Mr. pinchot was at his office early
' today. He promptly took up the clos
ing up of his work and expected to
have a busy day. To all appeals for
further statements regarding his dis
missal by President Taft Mr. Pinchot
merely smiled his declination to con
;■' tribute, further to the news on that
subject.
• Throughout the bureau of forestry
them was' a feeling of alarm as to
.' ■what might become of the organization
■which had been to such a large degree
the work of the late chief forester.
'; ■■- All 'of the : officials of this depart
ment who occupy places or rrHponsi
l.illty were personally selected by him.
- V'lMther or not there will be any fur
ther shakeup of the bureau Is a ques
tion that is calling forth a great deal
of concern within the bureau today.
Pivot of Fight
Pinehot today, in the opinion of
many, becomes the pivot on which the
Insurgent tight with the administration
can turn its sum- The effect of
Pinehot, the personal friend of Theo
dore Roosevelt and head champion of
the Roosevelt conservation policies,
being ousted from tho official family
of President Taft is another phase of
the conjectures which till Ui sir.
The effect of Pinchot's dismissal
upon the congressional investigation of
Secretary Ballinger and the land office
is another. '
In the ominous silence which fell
upon the whole situation following the
first bans after the cabinet meeting
at the White House yesterday, many
of the political forecasters see unmis
takable signs of a great tempest With
in the Republican party with ramifica
tions which some of the most sanguine
fiear to think about.
There Is only one conclusion . upon
which all am unonimous. That is,
ttiere is a great light on hand, one
which the presideait has sought to
avoid, for 'he prestjnt nt ie;ust, and In
f.xri ing it at this time by the dis
imVsal of Pinehot the president's sup
potters maintain that Mr. Taft has
considered all Uik probable effects and
consequences and has decided to see it
through.
Order Executed
"Within a few minutes after the presi
dent had instructed Secretary Wilson
to .removo Mr. Plnchot from office the
orner had been earned out.
Similar letters of dismissal were sent
.it Oie same time to Associate Kwester-
Overtoil W. Price and Assistant Law
Offlivr Shaw, the two men whom Mr.
l'iii'jiot defended in the letter to Sen
ator Dollivcr which was the cause, or
one of tho contributing causes, of his
dismissal.
"I have nothing to fear from B
; thorough determination of the facts."
said Secretary Ballinger today. "I may
have committed errors of judgment in
one way or another as any man may
while in tho public, service, but I am
firm in my knowledge that no improper
motive has ever influenced me in any
action I have talken."
The secretary remarked that he not
OBly wanted to have his own conduct
Investigated, but desired also to have
the same course followed "in relation to
the other fellow."
He declined to make any comment re
garding the action of the president In
dismissing PinoJiot.
The secretary said he had endeavored
to have the joint resolution providing
for a congressional Investigation word
ed so that it would bo as thorough as
possible.

FORMER GOVERNOR SUPPORTS
GIFFORD PINCHOT
Forester's Deeds Will Be Remembered
After His Detractors Are For.
gotten, Says Republican
Leader
[special to The Herald. 1
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. B.—Former
Governor George C, Pardee was asked
tonight at his Oakland residence by a
Herald correspondent for an expression
of opinion concerning the dismissal of
Pinehot. He said:
"I think the dismissal of Pinehot was
a mistake on the part of the president,
and is a distinct loss and injury to the
country. All of Pinchot's deeds, as well
as his words, have been helpful to the
conservation of the natural resources
of the country.
"It is too bad that there are not more
Plnchots in the public service at Wash
! ington to be 'disciplined' by dismissal
from office because they refuse to Bit
quiet and see the interests of the people
Stiff 01* *
"Pinchot's career is not ended. It is
only begun. He will be remembered
long after many who are now rejoicing
at his dismissal shall have been forgot
ten. Only the few whom Pinchot s de
votion to the interests of the public
has incensed will feel glad at the presi
dent's action. The vast majority of the
people Of the country are sorry for it
and regret it exceedingly."
PINCHOT DEFENDED
BY NOTED AUTHOR
Dr. Holder Renders Opinion That De
posed Forester Is Intellectually
Superior to President
Taft
[Special to The Herald.]
PASADENA, Jan. B.—Dr. Charles
Frederick Holder, founder of the fa
mous Valley Hunt club of Pasadena
and one of the best known authorities
in the United .States on fishing and
out-of-door sports, a man whoso books
are both numerous, popular and widely
circulated, came strongly to the de
fense of iiis friend Clifford Plnchot,
former forester of the United States,
this evening. Dr. Holder annually go*s
fishing with Mr. Piiuhot at San
Clements island, and the two have
spent many months In the closest "er
sonal Intimacy. In regard to tre re
moval of his friend by President Taft
Dr. Holder says:
"I consider this the most Important
and aching political move that
lias been made in this country for
years. Hut you should understand that
I in not a politician; lam only a citi
zen voter and a lifelong Republican
expressing his own private views. It
is a long story, this Ballinger-Pincnot
light, so-called, and you will soon hear
about It, as the American people will
demand that Pinchot take them into
his confidence, and he most certainly
will do it. Ho will take his cause,
which has been the people's cause, to
the highest tribunal—the people.
"I regret to say it. as I have the
highest respect for the president, but
be has been a distinct disappointment
to the average citizen, who does not
[ want anything from the country but
good government. Among other-mis
takes the president has failed to dis
cover wnat the majority of the Ameri
can people long have known, that in
the office of the United States forester
was a very remarkable man who in
tellectually is the superior of the presi
dent or any of his cabinet. Those who
know Gifford Plnchot know this well;
his enemies concede it. and to expect
thai fucli a man will sit In hi^ office
and slide pently down the years is to
expect the impossible. Plnchot lias a
mission, and it appeals to every man,
woman and child alive today, und that
mission is the right! of the whole peo
ple to share In the true enjoyments of
life and possess their Share of the earth
and its offerings. He stands for the
honor of the nation in the smallest de
tail: he stands for the lights of the
poor man, not against the rich, but be
cause the poor American has the same
right as a citizen as a Rockefeller, a
Moroß.ii or a Carnegie."
