center, like Chinese piece, were pre-.
pared by George 10. Roberts, director
of the mint.
Senator Oliver was the first to voice
opposition to the new coins with a me
mortal from the chamber Of commerce
or York, Pa, protesting to the senate
The American Street Railway asso
eiation and various street car lines OF
New York also have communicated
with the finance committee deploring
any such additions to the minor coins
The argument of the street car com
panies is that, while Ohio cities might
be convenienced. every other city In
the country would bear the burden, for
patrons would pay fare in one-half
cent pieces or two three-cent pieces,
compelling the conductors to carry
loads of change.
Thinks Churches Would Suffer.
One individual who took a lighter
vein sent a protest to the committee
ostensibly in behalf of the churches
arguing that contributors would drop
one-haf cent or three cent piece in
the box I'm lieu OF the customary nickel
or dime.
The proposed three cent piece is one
thirty-second of an inch larger than
the present nickel, 80 that after being
handled and worn slightly It would
work havoc with the receipts of vend-
ing machines or telephone companies
which operate nickel slot devices.
I'VE will proceed deliberately and
not recommend any such important
change in the coinage Of the nation
without giving everybody an oppor-
tunity to bo heard" declared Senator |
Penrose, chairman of the finance COM
mittee. "No date has been fixed for
taking It up, and with the tariff bills.

at present there Is no telling when we

so that when it is reached they can be
notified to appear and present their

FOR REDUCING DELEGATES.

Democratic Plan Formed Also For
Aiding Party In Republican States.
When the Democratic national com
mittee meets 1t will be asked to vote
on a new plan for representation in
future conventions offered by Repre-
sentative Burleson Of Texas The pur,
pose is twofold-to cut down the un
wieldy size which conventions hsve
grown and to provide for Representa-
ton which will give Republican states
less control over the Democratic party.
According to the Burleson plan, there
would be one delegate from each con-
gressionsl district, but districts repre-
sented in congress by Democrat
would be entitled to an additional del
egate, or two delegates to a Demo
cratic congressional district If state
is represented in the senate by two
Democratic senators it shall have four
delegates at large, il by ono Democrat
and one Republican it shall have three
at large and If represented by two Re
publicans only two delegates at large
The representation for a territory
would be the same as for a state at
large.
Mr.. Burleson feels that his plan
would conduce to a greater party in
terest in the congressional fights in
the states with a view to holding or
obtaining stronger representation in
the national conventions. He thinks
The Republicans might adopt this plan
with benefit and as superior to the plan
of representation by popular vote Oh
he presidency, as now urged by the
Republican progressives.

Kalamazoo,

The word Kalamazoo is said by some
philologists to be a contraction of an
Indian phrase descriptive Of the stones
seen through the water of a stream, a
refractive power in the current causing
the stones to resemble otters swim
ming beneath the surface. Other phi,
lologists say the word is slight varia-
ton Of the Ojibwa word "kikalamozo,' -
meaning "He is Inconvenience by the
smoke In his lodge"

SENATORS ASK
VIEWS ON COINS
Want to Hear From People on
Three Cent andHaIf Cent Pieces,
OHIO IDEA IS UNDER FIRE
Opinions Of individuals, Organizations
and Business Interests Arc Desired

tion-Churches Might Lose.

Members of the United States sen
ate finance committee would like h
have the views of individuals, organ
izations and business interests on the
proposed three cent and one-half cen,
pieces. So far the proposal to add
such coins to the denominations now
III circulation has not caused the In
terest which was anticipated. Every
citizen, no matter how limited his re-
sources, would be affected, and some
lines Of Industry would be compelled
to readjust their methods of business
as a result, The committee is patient
iy sitting on the bill. Whether 1t eve,
will emerge from that committee Is
problemaical. However, the senators
would like to know whether the coun-
try does or does not want the coins,
for on some meeting day they may de,
sire to act.
The bill was passed by the house
May 9, where it went through unob-
trusively. Some of the senators ap.
pretended that the proposition was
serious when 1t came before them the
following day. Senator Pomerene Of
Ohio wanted II TO go to the committee
on standard weights and measures,
which had received a similar bin in
troduced by him April %, but Sena-
tors Smoot and Lodge Insisted that It
go to the finance committee, and the
senate on a vote refused to agree to
the Ohio senator's motion.
Idea Originates In ohio.
So far the proposal to change the
national coinage has been almost ex-
clusively an Ohio undertaking. 1t
originated in Cleveland, where they
have a three cent car fare, and Con
gresham Bulkley Of that city intro
duced a bill to create a coin for that
particular need. Toledo also came
into line In support Of the scheme
Then some one revived the idea of the
one-half cent piece, which comes up at
regular periods, and it was tackled to
the bill
Before this the treasury department
had suggested abolishing for sanitary
purposes the present copper cents,
which corrode and affect employees
who handle them in large quantities.
The intention is 10 make them of the
same composition, rs per cent copper
and 20 per cent nickel, as the present
5 cent piece. To the bill making this
comparatively slight change in the one
cent piece was added the proposal TO
create the two new coins.
Secretary Of the Treasury MacVeagh
did not oppose the new coins, nor did
be approve them. The protests did
not start to come in until after the bill
had passed and the treasury officials
took the attitude that congress, not
they, should determine the coinage, re

How Democrats
Helped Labor

Chairman w. B. Wilson OF the
Committee OF Labor OF the Demo
Gratis House OF Repre- sentatives,
pointed out in a recent speech in the
, House that the labor interests OF the
, country had received more consider
alton from the Democratic House
than had come to them i'll many
years.
He laid stress on the TACT that the
Democrats had restored TO govern
ment employees the right to petition
"A constitutional privilege that had
been taken away from them by exec
utive orders under both Roosevelt
and Taft, and on the further fact that
the Democratic party had lived up to
its platform promise i'll the treatment
oi labor. Mr.. Wilson cited fifteen
specific measures beneficial to labor
that had been passed by the House at
this session at the request OF the
workers of the nation.
Prominent among the lists is the
eight-hour bill. extendig the opera
ton of this law to work done for the
governments the anti-injunction bill.
to protect wOrkingmen during wage
disputes; the contempt bill. to pr.
vide for trial by jury in cases of in
, direct contempt: the bill creating a
department of labor. and the investi-

Teddy for the action and practically

lections as yet it is declared that a
majority OF the delegates in each case
will be for Taft.

ceived the unqualified endorsement OF
the colonel was the reciprocity

Il don't believe it," said the first
man.

other, and produced card from
which he read:
Extract from speech of Theodore
Roosevelt at Grand Rapids, February
IL, 191D:
Here, friends in Michigan, right
on the northern frontier, ! have the
peculiar right to say word OF con-
graduation to you and to all Of US
upon the likelihood that we shall
soon have closer reciprocal tariff
and trade relations with the great ma
ton to the north Of US. (Applause).
