CONGESTION GETS
 WORSE THAN EVER
Senate Seems Especially In. clined to Delay Action on
 Important Measures

Montgomery, March 9.-fSpecial.)-In both the house of representatives and the state senate there appears a decided op- position to give third reading to some of the most important measures now be- fore those two bodies. Especially with regard to the general measures in the upper house of the-legislature the dispos- tion seems to be to put off the day of reckoning as long as possible. There might be many answers to the delay con- undrum, but the answer which at the present time seems to be the most cor rect is that each senator is slow to com init himself before he is absolutely cer- tain of the time honored condition of ''where he is att f aa
 For two weeks the senate has been jog ging along at go-cart rate, despite the fact that the day is one of automobiles and fast motorcycles. When bills of tre- Mendous consequence are reached, they are made a special order for some time about one week later When the special order day arrives, the measure is dis cussed about two hours, and then post poned until another day. Each measure thus drags itself out until 1t almost works out its own salvation.

NEW CAR LINE IN
 THE CAPITAL CITY

Montgomery, March 9.-(Special. )-Work on the Alabama Traction companys line on Lee street is progressing nicely, and the officers of the company expect to have the railway in operation within the next few months At the next meet . ing of the city council the Traction com pany will petition the council for adJi- tional locations, and when this matter has been satisfactorily adjusted the new line will be pushed to completion.
 Practically all of the material for the construction of the railway is on hand and President Abercrombie of the Trac- ton company does not anticipate any drawbacks in rushing the work to the finishing point.
 Much interest has been manifested in the new line by the people of Montgom- cry, nearly all of whom have regarded the additional street railway with increasing favor. When completed the line will be one of the best equipped and most up-to- date in the state, and. since it will tap the city at some of the most important points, 1t is believed that the railway will receive a most f1ourishing patronage.

New Telephone Line

Dadeville, March 9.-(Special.)-A new telephone line is being erected from Dadeville to Agricola, few miles south of town, by J. T. Pogue, one of the lead ing citizens and most prosperous farm CTS in the county. Tallapoosa county has one of the best rural telephone systems in the state, but this was a part of the county hitherto unreached from Dade- vile by phone, though one of the best communities and probably the richest one agriculturally in the county, and the line being constructed by MT. Pogue will prove great convenience to himself anu neighbors.

before the state, that of the revenue measure, may be attributed to natural indisposition to tackle the problem, measure is not yet in the form which will genuinely satisfy all interests. It is known that many of the representatives and senators are putting off the measure until certain concessions are made them.
 And while 1t all is going on, every day the calendars are becoming more and more congested-filled to overfowing.
 The committees in the legislature have much work ahead of them, many of them having in their possession bills which were introduced early in the ses- sion. Altogether, there from 200 to 300 bills distributed among the various senate and house committees
 Chairmen of a number of these commit tees have complained a great deal with ill the last few days of the evident lack of interest on the part of members in committee meetings On several nights within the last week from three to five committees have had to adjourn for lack of quorum, notwithstanding the fact that some of these committees had most important measures to consider.
 Heads of committees claim that some of the work of the legislature will be in definitely delayed if members do not take more interest in committee meetings. Frequently delegations from various parts of the state have to remain in the city several days before they can get a hear ing before certain committees. The ap- parent lack of interest on the part of some of the members of the legislat ature in committee meetings has caused consider able unfavorable criticism, much of the comment of this nature coming from out of-town delegations who leave their work at home and come to Montgomery for the purpose of being heard in committee meeting on some important measure that effects their locality.
 The speaker of the house has ire quentfy admonished members to attend the meetings. of their committees, claim ing that much important legislation may be blocked by their lack of interest in these meetings.
 Several of the committees have in their possession from 50 to 100 bills, many of these measures having been acted upon in one of the houses. Chairmen of com mittees claim that they are using all pos sible effort to hold meetings and that it will not be their fault if some of the bills which should be reported are not acted upon by the legislature.

ALL NOW RESTS
 WITH DEMOCRATS Richardson Thinks the Tar if Should Be Handled
 With Care

Huntsville. March l.)-Con- gressman William Richardson, who has just returned from Washington. said in an interview today that the responsi bility for the government of the Unit ed States now rests upon the democrats. The only hope that the republicans have, he said, is that during the extra session the democrats will arouse the fears of the business men and their interests and cause them to send up a howl against democratic policies. "The country expects and demands us to take up the tariff during the extra ses- sion and stand up to the President" he said. "The tariff will be handled with care, but Congress is certain to schedules and wood pulp. It is in my opinion best that Congress adjourn af- ter doing this and bring on the balance of tariff revision after next Decem- ber."
