FRIENDS OF WOOL DE-.
MAND IS PER CENT DUTY

Fifteen per cent ad valorem duty
on raw wool' was the slogan of the
organized opposition to the admisis-
tration free wool bill when the
Democratic caucus resumed considera-
tion of the new tariff bill yesterday.
With southern and New England
Democrats still fighting the cotton
rates proposed, the anti-free wool
members were planning their attack
on schedule "K,' which the caucus
expected to reach before the close of
the day.
At an early morning conference of
Democrats from Ohio, Indiana, West
Virginia and many of the western
states, it was determined to stand by
their decision to fight for Is per cent
duty, which they claim was the origi-
nal Judgment of the ways and means
committee before consultation with
President Wilson.
Chairman Underwood, after an ear
ly conference with President Wilson
expressed confidence that the tariff
bill would be approved by the house
committee without amendment within
the next three or four days.
Mr.. Underwood declared that while
the Democratic majorit was suffi-
ciently strong to put the measure
through the house within short time,
the Democrats would permit the mi
nority TO be fully heard.

BILLS INTRODUCED
BY f. f. ROBERTS

Fifty thousand dollars is asked in
an appropriation bill which Represen-
tative Roberts has introduced for the
buying of lands and the establishment
of homes for the Washoe Indians of
Nevada, says the Washington CORES
pondent of the Sacramento Bee.
The Indians are numerous in
Washoe, Ormsby and Douglas counties.
The money would be expended under
the direction of the commissioner of
Indian affairs.
Another appropriation by Roberts
calls for the establishment of a
weather bureau station at as Vegas,
$4,000 being asked for that purpose
Grasses for Arid Lands.
One of Roberts pet hobbies is set
forth in his bill asking an appropria-
tion of 100000 to be used in expert
mentation for the discovery and cul-
tivation of grasses or other vegeta-
tion that will flourish in the arid
lands of Nevada.
Roberts maintains that a little less
money spent in scattering free seeds
all over the country and expended up
on this kind of experimentation would
be a great deal better. He believes
that Burbank in a short period of ex-
perimentation could discover valuable
vegetation that would flourish on the
desert and make valuable the millions
of acres of dry lands that are now GO
ing to waste.
After Eel Worm.
Another bill of Roberts that would
be of benefit to the agricultural in
terests of Nevada is that appropriat-
ing $4,000 for the investigation and
determination Of the best means of
eradicating the eel worm that does
such harm to the potato crop. Its
ravages lately have been especially de-
structive.
