SOUTHERN PACIFIC v IS BEHIND IHM Will Be Made Chairman of r. if Committee on Naval Af- fairs, it is Rumored. BY TAV (Spclal Correspondent of The ClUzen) WASHINGTON, Jan. 16. The fact that tb4 republican California state legislature has Just returned George C. Perkins to the United States aen ate for another six years Is of direct interest to every state in the union, because It meanu the special Inter- zests have not lost their grip on con gress. The majority of the members of the California legislature are as much controlled by the Southern Pacific railroad company as if they were re celvlng at salary from . that concern instead of the people. In the United States senate, therefore, Mr. Perkins, of San Francisco, looks out for the Southern Pacific, and as a side Issue the big steamship Interests. Senator Perkins is the same Perk ins who, according to Francis J. Heney, went before the grand Jury in Ban Francisco previous to the arrest of Abraham Reuf, now under a 14- year aentenc in the penitentiary, and swore- he had known said Reuf a number of years and did not believe there waa a simple blot on his private or public life. - Can Get Results. Senator Firkins' six year extension Is particularly Important because of the fact he will be cne of the leaders in the senate, and will be in a better position to get results for the corpor ations than he ever was before. The tip Is eut he is to be made chairman of - the committee On. naval affairs. He tanks-second from point of senf ., ority to the present chairman, Halo, 01 inain. naa m iu psuti uum- mated -this commutes to a greaer or . legs degree.. . , - , When campaigning In California Senator Perkins never fails to claim full credit for tho appropriation of some $14,000,000 for the building and maintenance of tha Mare Island navy yard, which Is within his district. There are but two naval shore sta tions on the entire Pacific coast. which means that in time of war they would have to' be depended upon as a base for any fleet that might be operating In the Pacific. The value of Senator Perkins' Mare Island navy yard In euch a crMs I may be conjectured when it Is under stood that no. first-class battleship has ever been able to reach the yard be cause of a lack of deep water across Ban Pablo hay and through Mare Island straits, ami naval experts de clare it never will be possible for ves sels of deep draughts to reach Senator Perkins' naval shore station unless a fleet of fifty dredgerc Is kept at work constantly. Being on an islar.d. Mare Island navy yard has no railway connections, which la declared to bo Imperative to an efficient base In time of war. Sup plies must foe ferried to and' from the yard, which means the handling und rehandling of freight. There Is but onj dry dock at Mare . Island, and as It ;s Inaccessible to large ships, it Is available only for 'small craft. A 77:, foot dry dock Is under course of construction, but may never be a success, because at the site selected n.; bottom can be found. Just why the experts acquiesced to the building of Mare Island on Us present site, which Is not on the bay proper, bat at a point big ships can not reach and has a waterfront that Is not large enough for a fleet to anchor If It could reach It, Is one of the unexplained mysteries- The site was authorized from a minority re port. ,"In time of war Mare Island would Is a white elephant on the nation's hand," said a naval officer to the writer during a recent visit of Mare Island. "Navy offlctrc ridicule the place as having any semblance of n bane for a battle fleet, but do not dare publicly criticise It, for that woolrt lay e. m nnefl to ennrr martial. 4 t to He Gets It.

No serkiug differences between tha . men occurred until ths recent guber natorial campaign, when Carmack p-. posed Patterson for the office, ' . The ssue was statewide prohibition, which Carmack advocated, and Patterson ' opposed. Carmack realised that he was beaten, but he was aonftdent that prohibition would carry. Carmack, as editor of The Tennesseean, denounced ' the effort of the anti-prohibition forces and criticised Colonel Cooper editori ally. The latter, who managed Patter son's campaign, sent word to Carmack 4 that he would kill him If the attacks , , continued, Carmack told his friends that If he compiled with Cooper's de mands he would be branded as a cow ard all over the state, consequently he would 'refuse.
