Some Criticism Voiced.

In a few paragraphs as presented by
the committee, members of the caucus
found cause for criticism and in several
instances these paragraphs were referred
back to the committee for further con-
sideration and report to the caucus.
There was some debate over the commit
tees action in putting cement on the free
list, but in the end this was sustained by
the caucus and cement will remain on the
free list when the bill is reported to the
Senate.
Those paragraphs which were sent back
to the committee for consideration in
cluded those dealing with flaming arc
light carbons, stained glass. field glasses.
optical and surveying instruments and
Photographic lenses.
Cheap automobiles. as necessaries of
business and farming life, were the sub
ject of much of the afternoons debate.
The finance committee democrats had
already cut the rates in the Underwood
bill from 10 per cent ad valOrem to 30
per cent on motor cars valued at less
than 81, 800 Several democratic sena-
tors urged a further cut, and recon-
mended that the tariff be only 10 or 10
per cent on machines valued at less than
81, 900. This demand was made on the
ground that cheap automobiles were
now commercial necessities

Did Not. Settle Question.

The caucus did not settle the automo-
bile controversy. but asked Chairman
Simmons and his colleagues on the
finance committee to investigate further.
Advocates of the lower duty claim the
government would lose little revenue, as
the high-priced machines pay most of
the tariff
Members of the caucus believed last
night that the bill would be ready for
presentation to the Senate next Thurs
day Friday, so rapid has been the
progress made so far.
The income tax provision will not be
given to the caucus until the committee
is able to- furnish also the estimates be-
ing prepared by the commissioner Of cor
porations to the revenue the income
tax would bring in if $1,000 incomes were
included within it's taxing provisions.

GET BUSY
Madison Should Have Cluster
Lights By the Fourth of
July

Is Madison TO be provided with olus-
ter lightsS Well, now, it is precise
ly what should be done. For some
time business men have been discussing
the need of such an Improvement, and
a meeting of citizens has been called to
be held at the Commercial Club rooms
tomorrow evening to start the boost
er" in a formal way. AS a matter of
fact Madison ought to have had cluster
lights long ago. Every town in the
state of Madison's class, and many
smaller towns. possess cluster lights.
aud Madison Is Just a little behind
the times On the proposition. But
with the right kind of boosting at
tomorrow evenings meeting the lights
IAN be installed and Egsn avenue will
present the up to date appearance of
the frst-class towns by the Fourth of
July. There is going to be things
doing in Madison this year aud the
city should present to visitors the
appearance of which it is deserving.
The chsutauqus assembly will come
IN in July with hundreds of visitors
to the city. In August the German
Baptist church will hold its national
convention in Madison with strangers
here from every state in the union and
Canada to take part in the great
gathering Of c~lergymen and lsymen.
Then comes the county fair in Septem-
Der which will bring hundreds of
strangers to the city. So il is really
necessary to get busy and lead the
town out OF darkness. Cluster lights
will do it.
In installing the system no little
dinky business should be considered.
There should be a cluster of five
lights on every corner in Egan avenue
from the depot to the State Normal
school. and also in some of the more
prominent side streets. For instance,
in Fourth, Fifth, Sixth. Seventh and
Eighth streets where public buildings
and churches are located. Such a sys-
tenn would be about right, and indicate
that Madison possesses handsome pusi.
ness buildings, public buildings.

dences, and they are not afraid to turn
the lights ON and show them to strang-
