Not Candidate, But Regarded
as Likely to Be the
Ozark Horse"
LOOKED ON AS EXPERT
IN CITY GOVERNMENT
No Chance That President Will
Name From Outside the District,
It Is Said.

AlonZo Tweedale. auditor for the Dis
trict of Colnumbia. may be the dark
horse in the commissionership race.
That his name has been suggested to the
President by persons who favor the es-
tablishment here of model municipal
government is the belief of many who
have been following the developments in
the situation.
The President is said to be in sympathy
with the model government plan, as pre-
sented by Henry Bruere of New York
and others. and to be looking for munich
pal experts to serve as Commissioners.
Mr. Tweedale's services as auditor are
believed to be highly regarded by Mr..
Bruere, who recently requested him to
prepare the advance notice for the hand
book on municipal accounting which is
to be issued by the New York bureau Of
municipal research of New York.

tary of the public utilities commission at

pensation of this office 5000 He is un-
derstood to have been indorsed for the
position Oy q MEMBER OIL the CdDluet lie
story now current is that the PRESIDENT
desires to select Commissioners who are
qualified to administer the public utili-
ties law effectively.
1t is understood that Mr.. Tweedale is
not candidate for the position, and that
he has made no effort to have his name
suggested to the President. He has been
connected with the local government since
1895. Since his selection as auditor he has
brought about an entire reorganization
of the accounting system of the District
Mr.. Tweedale has acquired national
reputation as a municipal expert, having
been president of the National Association
of Controllers and Accounting Officers and
vice president of the Association of Amer
lean Government Accountants.
New Men Are Likely.
There is apparently little probability
that Commissioner Rudolph will be re-
appointed, and the chances are that two
new men will be named to fill the civil
membership. Gen. Johnston Is actively
urging that he be relieved from duty as
Q member of the board.
How soon the President will make
his selection cannot now be forecast.
He is anxious to obtain the services
of men specially qualified. according to
his own measure of men, to fill the
posts, but there is no likelihood, it is
said, that he will seek for commission

cepted the resignation of Prof. Vim

SUGAR AND WOOL ISSUES
. BEFORE TARIFF TRAINERS
Ways and Means cummittee
ConferS After UnderWO0d'S
Talk With Wilson.

With free sugar and 15 per cent ON wool
the biggest questions to be settled. the
ways and means committee of the House
met at 1O:oJ o'clock this morning in
executive session following conference
on the tariff bill between President Will
son and Representative Underwood last
night.
The wool and sugar questions. it is
believed, led the President to ask for the
conference. There has been rumor that
the free traders Of the House, led by Rep
resentative Burton Harrison of New
York, have managed to stir up enough
trouble to make the conservative re-
visionists proceed with extreme caution.
1t would be a fine stroke of policy, it is
asserted, if the free traders could throw
the wool and agricultural schedules into
the democratic caucus. Not only these
two schedules would be subject to the
attacks of individual members and COM
binations, but the entire tariff bill might
suffer great changes after the ways and
means committee had spent months in
framing q bill in the hope of getting it
through House and Senate with much
soaring.
Fate of Sugar in Doubt.
The fight against putting raw sugar on
the free list and against retaining the
duty on wool is understood to have led
the President to hesitate in committing
himself upon these matters until he has
had an opportunity to obtain further
light. Indications last night were that
free sugar would remain in the bill as it
has been written, but there is no abso-
lutte certainty about this. If the pleas
for duty on sugar convince the Presi
dent, the majority of the ways and
means committee is expected to acquiesce
and transfer sugar to the dutiable list.
The democratic caucus can demand
revision schedule Dy schedule, but ii is
the purpose of the committee to present
single bill
Underwood Uneasy.
House leaders understand that while
Mr. Underwood is inclined to believe that
the revision effected in the House will
run the gantlet of the Senate, he is
little uneasy over the narrow margin of
the Senate's democratic majority.
The President is understood to have
agreed with the House democrats on the
income tax plan, which, however, is SUBJ
ject to change as to rate and the amount
Of the exemption-now Professionally fixed
at from 1 per cent on $4,000 to per cent
on $lOOOOO-by any changes the President
may suggest in the tariff itself.
The democratic caucus may not be
held Tuesday, after all, if the President
should delay his opinion as to changes
in important rates. This situation is ex-
pected to be cleared up by tomorrow or
Thursday at the latest.

CIGAR FACTORY TO

INTERNAL REVENUE ARRANGE
MENTs MADE AND ORDERS
PLACED FOR TOBACCO.
FIRST CIGAR TO Be COLUMBIA"
Mr.. Donovan, the Proprietor Of the
Industry Much Pleased and 10 Incl
dentaliy a Musician and VIII Be
With tho Band.

Preparations are being made by ]
Donovan to open the cigar factor.
mentioned heretofore, in tho secon'
story of the Porter building on Mali
and Eighth. Mr.. Donovan arrived
several days ago and has been ex
ceedingly busy since that time. He
has been to Nashville and made al
arrangements with the internal reve
nue. collector, orders have been placed
for tobaccos and tools and the work
of the manufacture of cigars in Co
lumbia will begin as soon as these
arrive.
Mr.. Donovan Is man of expert.
ence in the manufacture of cigars.
having worked in some of the larg-
! est factories in the United States and
Canada 1t is his purpose to begin
with capcity of turning out two
thousand cigars per week and in
crease this as the demands justify.
The tobacco to be put into these ci-
gars will come from the Havana Is
lands largely, and from Connecticut,
the tobacco raised in the southern
country not being of suitable grade
and flavor for use in this line.
An investigation by Mr.. Donovan
and those interested with him has
shown that there is approximately
10000 cigars sold monthly in Column
bia,s and with only a fair share Of
these sales he says profitable bust
ness can be conducted. Besides
there are number of towns contig.
uous to this that can be easily reach
ed and should and doubtless will be-
come patrons of the factory. The
goods will be placed absolutely upon
their merits and no sentiment will be
to play part in the sup
port of the industry except as the
quality of the product deserves 1t.
Mr.. Donovan has decided that the
irst cigar he places on the market ,
will be the Columbia" He says he !,
wants it firmly fixed in the minds Of !
he people in the city and surround }
ng country that there are good r
smokes" made close by, and that y
hey have merit. The factory will q
urn out the various grades of cigars II
satisfy the different demands.
incidentally Mr.. Donovan is a mu- a
lcian, being a superior trap drum
Ter, and doing number of special O
es one Of which he calls bell solo d
lat is of highly superior order of r
'ecialty music. He will be connect. 6,
with Majors Concert Band, and it o,
his purpose to employ musicians in
much as possible in the factory in d,
der to assist the band as much as w
,ssible. -
