LORIMER FINDING
CAUSES A RUMPUS
american News Seryfc,

Washington, Dec. 22.-It is no long
er doubted that there is going to be a
big fight over the Lorimer case. I'm
due secrecy attending the finding of
the committee has tended to arouse
resentment. Failure to make Sena-
tor Frazer's statement a part of the
record has led to criticism. The hos
tile tone of the press in many parts
of the country and the evidence OF an
aroused public sentiment in the mat
ter. all are having their effect. To-
day it developed that certain senators
are going over the matter with view
to attacking the majority report, re-
CARELESS of whether the minority re-
port is filed. Senator Beveridge is
expected to file a minority report and
Senator Frazier may also do SO.

causded considerable amusement in the
beard meeting by her quaint protests
against the paving of North D street
Why. Your honor, it's not fair to
make us property owners pay for the
paving. There's only one horse on our
square. Why. haven't dog to trot
on the pavement. Half the property
owners will have to mortgage their
properties for the Improvement and
there is one who may lose his prop
erty.f
This improvement was suggested in
the budget meeting some time ago and
was not the result of popular petit
ton. The street is in such condi-
ton from heavy hauling that the inn
provement was deemed necessary
However. it is claimed that all the
property owners on the street are poor
and that the improvement would be Il
great hardship.
Mayor Zimemrman held out for both
the Improvement of South Fourth and
Of North p street. He said that he
believed if children became Ill from
pneumonia, resulting from wet feet
that were caused by bad sidewalks, the
city would be liable for damages. He
said for this reason the Improvement
should be made.
Apetition was introduced for the
Improvement of South Fifth street,
from Main to South + street with &C.
ment side walks. 1t was sent to the
Engineers office for specifications. \
resolution for the Improvement OF
North Fifth street from Main to North
t, street WIS introduced. All resolu-
tons. including those for North ID
and South Fourth streets, were ap-
proved. Property owners have ten
days in which to demonstrate.

WOOL GROWERS ARE
TO RAP PRESIDENT
His Message Holds Out But
Little Hope to Them and
They Are Wrathy.
(Amcrican News Service)


Portland, Ore, Dec. 22.-That Taft's
latest message will come in for grill
ing at the hands of the wool growers
of America at the annual convention
scheduled for Portland, January 4, 5,
6, and Z, is the frank prediction of
sheep raisers. This message holds
out little hope to the wool growers and
they regard it as settled that he re-
CARDS the wool and woolens schedule
as indefensible. for he has said so on
a number of occasions.
1t is felt that sc long as President
Taft feels that a majority of the peO-
pie want the schedule revised. whether
the industry will be wrecked or not,
he will stand by his original program
for the reopening of the schedule and
some changes in the duties on wool
and woolens. although he has stated on
numerous occasions. it is said, that he
is not after the wool growers, but
rather the manufacturers.
Fear Is General.
Growers are naturally hoping that
congress will not dig into the tariff on
wool until the Tariff Board has had a
chance to report. The fear is genera.
however. that revision OF Schedule X
is inevitable and this is causing a de-
pressed feeling among sheepmen
everywhere. The tariff talk that will
be heard will be big feature of the
coming convention. Strong speakers
have been secured to discuss the situ-
alton and advise way out. Edward
Moir, president of the Carded Woolens
Manufacturers Association. will speak
on Schedule X, from the standpoint
of the Carded Wooden Manufacture
ers"
The Payne-Aldrich Tariff and Wool
Imports" will be the topic presented
| by C. II. Brown Washington represen-
tative of the National Wool Growers
| Association.
Tariff on Wool and Wooiens," is the
subject TO be presented by Theodore
Justice, of Philadelphia, and Fred H.
Blume of Sheridan Wyoming, will
speak on Protection for Wool and
Woolens." There will be extended dis
cussions Oh wool and tariff matters at
all the sessions of the convention.
Other subjects to be discussed are:
