Democratic senators in caucus today
determined TO support the House excise

business of more than 5000 year and
to reject the Borah income tax bill Of
fered as an amendment. There was
some opposition to this course.
Republican leaders were puzzled to
estimate how far the new alliance be-

would go in the action on the excise
tax bill. to be voted on late today. and
the democratic free sugar bill. to be
voted on tomorrow.

House Bill First Taken Up.

The consideration of the excise tax
measure began in the Senate today
after an hour of miscellaneous legislative
business. Little interest was apparent
in the opening of the fight. The House
bill was first taken up, Representative
Hull of Tennessee, author of the meas
ure, being one of those present when its
consideration began.
Senator Borah asked for the reading
of his income tax bill, but did not ask
for its immediate consideration. He said
he would not formally offer the amend
ment until after the provisions of the
House excise bill had been discussed.
Senator Hoke Smith of Georgia made
the opening speech from the democratic
forces in favor of the House measure
He said he favored an income tax. but
that he could not agree TO d plan TO sub
stitute an income tax in the Senate for
the excise tax bill which the House had
passed.

Commissioners Plan.

The District Commissioners pointed OFT
to the committee. in a letter regarding
the bill, that North Dakota avenue, when
the land is acquired and the thorough
fare improved, will run from Georgia
avenue by way of the National Training
School for Boys to the proposed high
way along the Anacostia river. Thus. its
object is 70 connect the northwestern part
of the District and the neighboring sec
tions of Maryland with the southeastern
portion of the District. The Commission
ers believe such a thoroughfare impor-
tant and its elimination undesirable.
In presenting the opposite views of the
committee Senator Jone/ declares that
the topography of the land through which
runs the section of North Dakota avenue
to be eliminated makes impracticable the
construction Of the street. and that the
leaving of the street on the highway plan
holds up the development of that section
Senator Jones also points out that 1t
was the original intention that the street
should run dagonally northwest from
Georgia avenue. but that object has been
defeated by the construction of the
Walter Reed Army Hospital and other
buildings connected with that institution

Oppose ALI Amendments.

The income tax had many supporters in
the caucus among democrats who did
not want to be compelled to vote against
a principle they Endorsed. In the hope.
however, that the progressives could
again be held in line and the excise bill
passed it was decided to vote against any
to the measure.
OF greater significance, however, was
tentative understanding reached as to
the course to be pursued tomorrow in
the sugar tariff fight. Democratic lead
ers believe they will be able. with the
promise sugar tariff bill, probably that
of Senator Brstow. taking at least 40
or 10 cents Per hundred pounds off the
present duty of Sl.W on sugar
The attitude of the democrats in the
caucus on the income and excise tax
was expressed in a resolution given
out at it's conclusion. 1t stated: That
while favoring an income tax, they re-
alize that with the pending amend
ment TO the Constitution authorizing
an income tax now requiring the ia
vorable vote of only two states it is
preferable to support the pending bill
for an excise tax, which, with the ex-
listing corporation excise tax, will
raise approximately an equivalent
amount of revenue.
Therefore. the democrats in the Sen
ate will support the pending bill for an
excise tax and vote against any substi~
tute therefore providing for an income

Has Passed House.

The bill. approved by the committee,
for the incorporation of the Naval His
tory Society has already passed the
House, and it's passage by the Senate
has been urged upon the committee by
many men of prominence. In the COM
mittee's report the bill has been
incorporated a letter from Charles
Francis Adams of Massachusetts, show
ing the need for a national charter
for the society instead of state char
ter or one from the District
1T is useless for such society ina
tional in scope, to proceed under state
letters of incorporation, he says. The
material il wishes TO collect is scattered
all over the United States. and among
those holding ii jealousy naturally makes
itself felt the moment statehood enters
into the question. For instance, the de-
scendants of naval officer who served

federacy would feel no inclination to give

RAISING FORESTS.
Governor Baldwin Says It is Safe
 Investment for Any Man - Not as , Risky as Wall Street Securities.

The opportunity for men in this state who have little capital to in vest to find a safe place in which to put it was the burden of the speech delivered last week by Governor Sim con E. Baldwin before the shelton Business Mems association. He pointed out the profits that are possible in forestry and what the state will do to aid those who invest money and raise wood to sell. He spoke as follows:
 1 issued the other day the annual proclamation of Arbor day l wish it's coming could be the occasion of con sidering anew the importance of for estry to the business interests of Con necticut, and what can be done tow ards multiplying our woodlots In the smaller towns. We need more for estation for two objects--to study and preserve the natural flow of our streams and rivers and to raise wood to sell. There are, our state forester tells us. 1,0O0, ,000 acres of land in this state fit for nothing but forestation. You can use them for pasturage, but they do not produce enough in that way to make grazing pay. But if tu- diciously planted, they can grow profit able crops of timber and wood pulp for paper making.
 Crops that are fit to market only after a growth of 25 or 50 years are not so attractive at first sight as crops that are gathered every year. For estation can be so conducted as to yield annual crops, but it is not so conducted in Connecticut now. We have a Forest school at Yale, where they teach the business to others. We

have some state woodlots state owned. which we are trying to bring into that condition eventually. II is the thing for us to aim at.
 But 1t is not a bad proposition Co practice forestry even on the old plan of felling the timber only after long period of years and then cutting it off clean. Brush land comes cheap. and if it does take long years to cover it with trees worth cutting for lumber not much capital is thus left inactive. and not much care is necessary yearly, ex- cept at times that otherwise there would be nothing in the way of profit able employment in farming to occupy. Trees can be thinned out in winter and any time on off days. It is a good way of laying up money. Trees grow while we sleep. They grow faster than
 money in the savings bank, and there is no danger of dedication or eXperi- ments in high finance.
 A Latin poet two or three thousand years ago said: Do you ask who is good man? It is he who plants trees for the benefit of another generation"
 You in Shelton have a peculiar inter
 est in forestation. You need it to keep your great water power full and steady. The natural tendency for bare hill is to get barer. There is nothing to bind 1 the soil together when the sun melts in the spring, or in the summer thunder storm The mulch of leaves that forms | in the forest does this.
 1 Let the hills along the upper Housa- l tonic valley become more and more | barren and more and more of their top
 soil will run down every year until it | is all gone, and the even flow that is natural to the fOrest-fed river gives | to a succession of freshets and nothing | between them. Remember, gentlemen
 that in our manufacturing and mercan-
 tile establishments. with their call for | packing boxes; our railroad industries, our building operations, large and small i Connecticut offers to her landholders a 1 nearby and constant market for all the | lumber they can produce. Here is the l land, 1,000. 600 acres, fit for this, and fit 1 for nothing else Here is the power in ! 100000 population capable of turning
 1t at small cost into profitable forests | Here is the market, right at hand, al- ways with a short haul.
 1t is not simply a question of the best
 use of farm to the farmer It is an investment proposition to everybody l with $500 or S100 on hand which he
 wants to turn over It is not so risky
 as most western investments. or most

FOR COLLECTING RENT.
Quite Complicated Process, if it IS to
 Be Done Legally.

Delinquent, there IS hope.
 To get your rent a landlord must de- mand it:
 At a convenient hour.
 By visible act
 In the daylight.
 Before sunset.
 On the premises.
 On the day before the rent Is due.
 These are some of the points which were cited in the case of Margaret Alden against Anthony White, in which a summary process proceeding was brought for failure to pay rent. The case will go to the supreme court from the New Haven common pleas court, which sustained demurrer brought by the defendant at the hearing before a justice.
 The suit started when the process was brought and White then entered a demurrer, citing in this demurrer the points which must be followed in the simple but important process of col lectlng rent Some of these are cited above. The demurrer was sustained by the justice before whom the pro ceedings were heard and the appeal to the supreme court followed. The de- fendant kent student boarding house in Wall street
