Coal Dealers in. Sympathy.

Conditions generally respecting the sale
OF coal in the District of Columbia are
excellent, Supt. Haskell declared today
Coal wagons which have been intercepted
on the streets and weighed have gener-

rather than underweight, it is stated.
Col. Haskell says the coal dealers have
shown every disposition to cooperate with
his office. He believes that the present
condition complained of should be cor
rected without delay, and will ask the
corporation counsel of the District for
an opinion as to what action, if any, the
local government may take with that end
in view.

Cites Tricky Legislation.

Senator La Toilette referred to former
Senator Aldricf's handling of the emer-
gency currency bill and other measures
I'm conference, where important amend
ments had been put in or dropped out In
the conference committee.
This sort OF tricky legislation is not
right" he declared; lit is not fair to the
Senate or the people
The fact that conference reports are
not subject to amendment when they
come back to the Senate and House was
the chief point of attack by the Wiscon-
sin senator.
Prior to the beginning of the session
practically every senator had received a
telegram from Louis Marshall. president
of the American Jewish League. calling
attention to the provision in the bill
requiring immigrants to produce certifi-
Gates Of character when coming from
countries issuing such certificates, and
several of these Were read in the Senate.
In the telegram Mr.. Marshall said the
Inevitable effect would be exclude ma
iority of Jews coming from Russia and
Roumania. He referred to the provision
as a reversal of the American policy
Contend Clause Out of Order.
Senator's Stone of Missouri. O'Gorman
Of New York. Simmons of North Caro-
lima and others called attention to the
fact that the clause had not appeared
in either the original House or the orig
inal Senate bill and all of them made the
point that the insertion of the provision
was out of order.
Senator Lodge replied as the compro
mise bill was an entire substitute for the
other bills. il was competent for the
cOnferees to insert new matter lie also
said that no character certificates are
issued in Russia, the measure would bs
relieved of all criticism i'll far il
try.

The Painters Of the city have or
ganized a union and one of the first
things to happen after the Organiza-
ton was the starting of what appears
to be a strike. The Union is said
to have been organized on Sunday
and Monday morning the workmel
made demand for a nine hour day
and a rate of thirty cents an hour.
This has been refused by some of the
painter contractors and work is at a
standstiu From the contractors
standpoint it appears that the paint
ers want a thirty cent rate paid to all
help regardless of length of service
and experience. The contractors also
hold that it is unfair to them to have
a demand of this kind made at this
time as a great many contracts have
been made at the scale that has bee
in force The contractors will be will
ing to make some concessions after
the existing contracts have been car
med out. R. E. Allen is president of
the Union and Roy Gets is treasurer

They were ruthlessIy cut down and
split into fence posts and rails and
sawed into lumber which was used
for all kinds of building purposes.
Many of these trees today would sell
for $1OO. The same line of policy is
now being pursued with many other
kinds of timber. Pine trees are being
Laid waste by the million. The south

full pine trees for the sake of a gal
lon of utrpentine from each, that in
a few years would be worth many dol

timber. The land upon which much
of this timber is growing is of little
value for anything else. There are MAJ
trees that if left alone for the next
few years would bring large prices
1t would be weu to think of these
things before ruthIessly chopping then
down. The line of the poet would
be applicable; ''Woodman, spare that
