Formidable Opposition Turns
Up in Senate.
THINK IT TOO SWEEPING
In ANY Event the House Program to
Aid the Farmers Will Meet
Bitter Enemies in Upper
Branch.

Washington, April 25.-It Is mSre
clear than ever that the Underwood
house bill putting on the free list "a
large number Of articles known as
"necessaries of life," is to encounter
serious trouble in the senate.
1t has developed that the senate Re
publican insurgents as a body will not
stand for the Democratic free list.
Neither, Of course, will the regular
Republicans. This means that the bill
is in danger Of getting sidetracked
when IL REACHES the upper house.
The senate Republican progressiyes
say they will stand for a part OF the
free list proposed, but they think 1t Is
too sweeping. They would support
free lumber. free leather, free bag
ging and baling materials, free wire
and some other features. but will vote
against the measure II II is put up to
them in It's entirety. Free meats from
all parts OF the world, for instance, is
exciting the antagonism Of the live
stock interests. and some OF the pro
gressiyes who come from cattle and
stock producing states would balk at
this proposition. Just where the pro
gressives will draw the line is not yet
developed.
knowing the free list Is in danger,
the senate Democrats are more likely
than ever TO try 20 hitch the free list
10 the Canadian reciprocity agree
ment In this they will probably not
succeed. Not all the Democrats will
Join in this effort, since some OF them
are firmly of the belief that the reci-
procity agreement should go through
unhampered and unembarrassed.
All the Indications now are that the
tarin war in the house will be mild
as compared with that In the senate.
Senators say they expect a hard strug
gle and bitter debate The divisions
OF sentiment among Republicans and
Democrats are so numerous and, on
different schedules SO varied. that
there is much doubt what will be the
final outcome
When IL comes TO the wooden SEIZED
ule The senate progressive Repub'i-
cans are going to support moderate
revision The probability is that the
house Democrats will provide for cuts
in the duties under the wooden SEIZED
ule about 80 per cent OF existing du-
ties. The senate progressives cannot
evade voting for this in view Of their
party protestatons They would prob
ably not support free wool outright.
Progressive Republicans who assai-
ed the Payne-Aldrich bill are begin
ming to be showesed with criticism
for not standing mp to the racl, and
supporting reciprocity and the free
listing of the necessaries OF life. This
criticism is gall and wormwood to
them, for they admit they are between
two fires and in a most embarrassing

DECISION IN CHURCH CASE
Court Holds Laymen Have Supervision
over Cemeteries; Priest over Burial.


Pottsville. Pa. April 25.-The first
Of the pending decisions in the Cath
Ollie church cases brought by the late
Archbishop Ryan. was made when
Judge Bechtel informally stated from
the bench that the three county judges
are a unit as to the law governing the
conduct of Catholic cemeteries.
The decision is that the lay mem
bers OF the congregations, under the
laws OF Pennsylvania. have supervis
ion over all such cemeteries, and can
manage the financial affairs, hire the
grave diggers, etc.
But on the question OF who is to be
buried in consecrated ground, the
court holds that the priest alone has
authority, and that lay members can
not decide whether person has been
in good standing in the church so as
to entitle him or her to burial in
Catholic cemetery.
This Is a divided victory for the
parties to the suit.

Paint Folly

Folly to put-off painting when

cheap" paint.
Your buildings are worth
you say how much. If you
don't paint them, how much less
will they be worth in a year ?
1t will cost more to paint next
year; it will take more paint at
about IS a gallon for paint and
labor.
How much is the cost of paint
by the year?
Depends on the paint. An
average job is 5000 square feet,
10 gallons Devoe: 1925 a gal
lon for paint and $3.50 a day
$3.50 a gallon toO) for painting:
4.75 a gallon: $47.50. How
long will it last? Depends on
the owner: say 5 years; and your
cost for Devoe is $3.50 a year.
Cheap" paint, $1.75 a gallon,
takes Is gallons, labor the same
50. so a day or gallon: $4.25 a
gallon: Is gallons $63.75. Say
it lasts 2 years; it isn't sure two
years; it isn't sure at all.

MEMORIAL
TO ALL GOVERNMENTS

Washington, D. c., Aug. 26.-The
presentation of memorial, addressed
to all of the governments of the
world on the subject of the prohi-
bition from harmful use of all in
toxicants, is one of the striking fea-
lures of the Second international
Conference at The Hague, Holland,
during the week of September 1915.
1t is proposed to directly bring to
the attention of all the ruling SOW
ereigns of the world, and their chief
legislative advisers, the Importance
of serious inquiry into the moral
and economic damage inflicted by the
use of alcohol, opium, hashish, etc.
1t is hoped that deep and favorable
impression may thereby be made over
probably the widest area ever yet
attempted in the history of any So
cial reform.
