MAY SEEK ROOTS AID
SENATOR LIKELY TO BE POLITI-
CAL ENVOY TO ALBANY.
Leaders, in Reorganization of State
Senate, Seek to Avoid For
mer Errors.

In the opinion Of some of the New York
republicans who took part last evAninr in
the conferences over the republican po-
litical situation in the Empire state grow
ing out of developments at Albany 1t
probably will be found advisable for SEN
ator Root to go to Albany to present the
views of the republicans who while de-
tanned at Washington, take a lively in
terest in state politics.
The sentiment developed at the confer
ences yesterday is said to have been de-
cidedly antagonistic to repeating the mis-
take. in the reorganization of the state
senate following the resignation of Mr.
Aids, which was made i'm his selection
as president of that body. In other
words, and to put it little more plainly,
if brutally, distrust of the leadership of
Timothy Woodruff. who is held RESPONSE
BILE for the Aids selection, was expressed
very freely i'll the conferences.
Don't Want Party Dragged Down.
There is no disposition on the part of
the congressional leaders from New York
to make q scapegoat of Mr.. Aids, but by
the same token there is decided determi-
nation on their part not to permit Mr.
Aids to drag the party down if it can be
prevented. Whatever the outcome of his
trial, it Is felt that great care must he
taken in the selection of his successor so
as not to lay the party open to the sus-
picion OF being in the hands of the men
who are responsible for his selection.
Some influential men in the confer
enceS yesterday took the ground that
Mr.. Aids must stand the rigors Of the
game and that his own party must not
spare the rod if he Is found liable 10
discipline. Clean house" is their
watchword, and they think they have
President Taft and Gov. Hughes back
of them in that program.
Gov. Hughes must be consulted in the
reorganization of the Senate. accord
ing to these men, and Timothy Wood
ruff must not be allowed to have his
way to spite the governor.
No decision upon definite points were
reached at a yesterdays conferences. bu,
there was general and very valuable
exchange Of opinions which may in
fiuence future action.

GoMPERs ON PROHIBITION.
Says Experience Has Shown It tt
Be q Failure.

CHICAGO ILL.,. March s.-Samuel Com
pers. president of the American Fedora
tion OF Labor, yesterday refused an In
vitation to speak for the local option
cause. In explaining his reason for de-
Ginning Mr.. Gompers said that the ex-
perience of most cities has shown pro-
hibition to be failure
Il could not consent to indorse local
option because I am not in sympathy
with the movement said Mr. Gnmpers.
Proper regulation of the liquor traffic
is much more effective than the abolish
ment of saloons under the local option
or prohibition laws. Experience OF cities
both In the United States and other coun-
tries has shown this.
There is not a city in Maine where a
stranger cannot go and buy all the beer
or whisky he wants. There is no at
tempt whatever to disguise the fact that
these places are operating in violation of
the law"

Mr. Rose may he sounded by the Presi-
