gether, there was a large attendance,
and Mr.. Gates spoke concerning the au-
tomobile fund. His plan of apportion-
ment of this fund was that each COM
missioner should go over his roads once
in two weeks and see that loose stones
are removed, holes in the roads repaired
and such other matters looked after as
seem necessary, and at the end of the
month shall make out his account,
charging for the work done, and if the
road needs resurfscing, that should also
be done and included. This work should
be done on so-called state roads All
these bills should be be sent to the
county supervisor and at the end of the
year. from April to November 80, these
amounts win be figured up and from
the automobile fund will be spportioned
TO each town so doing onehalf the sum
expended, as present

HAMPSHIRE'S
DEADLOCK
Little Chance For the Rate
Legislation
THE SENATE AND HOUSE
In Strong pposition--Railroad Against
the House Measure, Favors, How
ever, the Proposals Made
by the Senate.

Concord N. H., April 6.--Two hear
ings bearing on the railroad rate situa-
ton in New Hampshire, are being held
at the State House. The Senate finance
committee gave hearing yesterday aft
ernoon on the public service bill, which
has attached to it rider providing for
the legaizing of the present Boston 4
Maine rates which have been declared
illegal pending an investigation by the
public service, commission. The other
hearing was given last night by the APP
preparation committee of the Senate,
upon the railroad rate bill, submitted
by the special rates committee. At both
of these hearings Edgar J. Rich, gen
eral solicitor of the Boston & Maine,
stated the position of the railroad in
favor of the Senate bin and against
the House measure. The objection to
the latter bill is principally based on
the fact that the railroad company is
denied the right Of appeal to the courts
from the decision of the commission.
While matters now appear to be in 4
deadlock as the temper of the House
is decidedly opposed to approval of the
public service bill with the present SEN
ate amendment, a proposition may be
made to amend the rider on the Sem
ate bill so that it will be acceptable
to Governor Bass and the progressive"
element. This at present appears to be
the only chance OF compromise. I'M
less something is done along this line,
and the bill put in such shape that
the House will not fatty reject it, but
will have a conference with the SEN
ate, there seems to be no likelihood of
legislation at this session and the rate
issue, irrespective of political party, win
be the basis of the hottest campaign
that New Hampshire has seen for years
The tax commission bill passed by the
Senate Tuesday with an amendment
putting the appointing power in the
hands of the supreme court, was made
special order in the House for to-
day.

er's responsibilities are increasing ac-
cordingly. The eyes of the taxpayers
are upon him, and while there is bound
to be more or less criticism, he is to
reduce his mistakes TO a minimum and
see that his work is carried out for the
good of the town and state.
Mr.. Gates went into road building in
detail. discussing curves in the road. UNI
der drainage, grades, and told how he
considered road should be built He
believed the farmer and automobiles
should cooperate in road building and
that the road commissioners should con-
struet roads suitable for both. In his
estimation, the drainage of a road is
its greatest feature.

House Insurgents Denied the Recogni.

Washington, April 6-The House
took up the adoption of its new rules,
limiting general debate to four hours,
to be equally divided, granting this
privilege of offering only one substi-

The insurgents pleaded for the privi-

told by the Democratic leaders that
their amendments would have to be
included in the proposed Republican
substitute,
The rules offered by the Democrats,
and which will be adopted, make com

Of their appointment by the speaker,

NEW MASONIC TEMPLE.
May Be Erected In st. JOhnsbury, 1t Is
Thought.

st. Johnsbury, April 6.-St Johns
bury may have new Masonic temple
as the next development in public
buildings Ii the sentiment shown at
special meeting Of Passumpsic lodgt
No. 27, f. & A NJ held Monday even
ing prevails the town will surely be

Masonic home The meeting was called
by the building committee of which
r. G.. Cheney is the chairman and
he reported for the committee They
had visited the masonic homes at Bel
lows Falls and Littleton The commit
tee seemed to think a home like the
one at Littleton would be the best
adapted to st. Johnsbury
This would mean a building about
so BY so feet and two stories high
with basement Besides the lodge
rooms there would be banquet hall
and rooms to be used as club rooms
bv the members Such building
would cost S24.0O0 and be used BY all
the Masonic bodies and the Eastern
Star To build and pay for such a
building an increase in the annual dues
Of the lodge would be necessary but
the members present were practically
unanimous in favor Of the necessary
increase The committee will arrange
for a canvass to see how large an
amount Of money can be raised for
a building fund and unless the project
gets chill there Is promise that a
new Masonic temple viii be erected
