FREE RAW WWOOL
STANDS ONSETS
Democratic Caucus IndOrses IL by
Vote of 100 20 az Wilson
Mildly Criticised.

Several congressmen Intimate That
Democrats Who Withhold Support
From Underwood Bill viii Be over
looked by the Administration In the
Distribution Of Patronase-Essenee
Of the Debate.
Washington, April H.. President
Wilson was accused indirectly in the
Democratic house caucus Of resorting
to coercion to force his legislative
colleagues to support the Underwood
tariff bill. II was intimated that the
president had threatened to withhold
patronage from members who failed
to support the administration tariff
program and to go into the districts
of such members as had the temerity
actively to oppose the Underwood bill.
When all was said, the caucus voted
on the free raw wool provision advo.
Gated by President Wilson and adopt.
ed it 1870 to AZ. The vote was taken
on an amendment offered by Repre-.
sentative Dies of Texas, proposing a
rate Of 10 per cent adyalorem on raw
wool.
The fight on the free wool provision
was started by Representative Dies,
who had the support of some Of his
colleagues from Texas, members from
Ohio and other wool-producing states.
Having in mind President Wilson's
conference.-the Chairman Underwood
on the tariff, Mr. Dies reminded the
caucus that there were three co-ordi.
nate branches Of the government,
each supposedly independent and
each entrusted with certain duties to
perform. The house, he said, was au.
thorized to originate tariff bills. He
strongly intimated that in this in.
stance the house leaders had shared
their constitutional responsibilities
with the executive.
Representative Alexander of Mis-.
souri, who comes from an agricultural
district, spoke more to the point. He
declared that it was common gossip |
in the capital that Democrats who
withheld support from the tariff bill
would be punished by the administra
ton.
Representative Underwood made a |
speech in which he defended the bill,
and he urged all members Of the party
to stand by the measure, as it had
been approved by the administration.
He said that the bill represented a
fair compromise; that it was in the
main equitable to all interests con.
cerned, and that in his opinion it
would be approved by the country.

The Thousands Who
Come in Motor Cars.

Portland, Me, Aug. 1.-(SpeciaD. y
Between $4,000 and 10000 summer tour
lists from other states will come into
Maine oyer the road between Ports
of July and August. according to sta
tistcs which have been compiled by
the Touring Information Bureau of the
Maine Automobile Association, and
which We're made public, today. This
estimate is the result of 4 census made
ny representatives of the Maine Auto
mobile Association at York Corner,
during the past two or three weeks and
the figures are in every sense Il revel-
alton, showing accurately the tremen-
dous automobile traffic into Maine, to-
gether with the possibilities for sum
mel tourist business in the Pine Tree
State with u system of good roads.
Probably every state in the Union
is represented by the cars which come
in over this great artery of travel. dur
irg the course of the year. These fig
pres apply only to cars coming from
states other than Maine. For instance,
on Sunday, July %, between A. NJ.
and T. NJ. rs foreign ears entered
Maine over the Portsmouth Portland
highway These ears represented nine
states and one Canadian province, and
the number of people they carried was
902. on July 20, 203 foreign cars came
into Maine over the Portsmouth-Port
land rGad, carrying 617 people, and, on
July ~, 209 cars entered, carrying SIS
people.
When il is realized that the auto
bile traffic into Maine over this one
road, every day. represents several
train loads of people. it can be seen
what an immense factor the motor ear
is to the summer business of the state
Another factor which must not be
overlooked is that the road between
Portsmouth and Portland is only oneI
great artery of travel into Maine. An
other great entrance into the State is
through Fryeburg; still another isl
through Bethel and Gorham, y. H.; a
third important one is from Colebrook,
n. IL, and Dixville Notch through
NewrV; "A fourth is from Ossipee y.
H, to Cornish; another is from Roeh-
ester n. H.. to Sanford; and one of
the main important arteries at theI
present time is that from Dover, y. H.,
to North Berwick. The travel over this
road il practically heavy at the pres
ent time, due to the fact that sc much
OF ii is coming this way rather thanI
coming over the regular Portsmouth |
Portland road while the construction
work is going on.
One of the principal complaints COM
ing from summer tourists into Maine
is that the state does net maintain its
roads. They say that hundreds of miles
u good highway has been built in the
State but that it has been allowed to
so to pieces wholly for lack of care.
They declare if we would properly |

Many things may be done to inn
