Georgetown Gives Decency Another
Setback

As result of the protest entered
by the vets against the recent
election, Judge Robert T. Stout was
forced To issue mandate permitting
the licensing of saloons in George
town. Five applications for licenses
were Immediately entered and
granted.
The "drys' are planning to contest
the decision under the County Unit
Law. Let us hope that their cause
will be successful and that the seat
of a famous college may be unpOllut-

Free Sugar Bill Will Not Be Ruin

President Wilson.
~ United Press.

~ United Press.
Washington, May 2S.-President
Wilson has. declared war upon the
lobbyists. He issued a statement in
his weekly talk with the newspaper
men to advise lobbyists maintained
here to fight the Wilson bill, which
he said was the greatest and most
powerful in history, if not in the his
tory of government.
81 think the country ought to know
of the extraordinary exertions being
made by the lobbyists in Washington
to gain alterations in the tariff bill, :"
said Wilson. They are making state
ments calculated to mislead not only
the public men but the country at
large. Washington has seldom seen
so clamorous, so insistent or so insid-
ious a lobby.
= The government in all it's branches
ought to be relieved from this intol
cradle burden and this constant in
terruption to the calm progress of
debate know that in this 1 am
speaking for the members Of the two
houses
That a brick could not be thrown
any place in Washington without hit
ting the head of lobbyist was the
way in which President Wilson ex-
pressed himself. He was defiant in his
attitude toward the lobbyists, as
sorting his lack of fear of anything
they could do. He said he did not
mean to intimate that the lobbyists
were corrupted only that they were
waging a campaign of misrepresenta-
ton. President Wilson plans the pre-
sentation of an administration cur
rency bill this week or early next
week. He indicated that the bill
would "hold water" and would be
made a party measure the same as the
tariff bill.
President Wilson indicated today
that he is not out of the habit Of per-
sonally reading his messages to con-
gress. He may read his currency
measure.
The new industrial commission
will probably be named this week
stated the president He is anxious
to have the commission begin it's
work of investigation leading to med
iation of labor troubles. His principal
difficulty he said. was in choosing the
right man.
Uncle Sam has the Mexican gov
eminent on trail, the president indi-
Gated. Recognition of the Huerta gov
\ eminent is not being considered, the
situation in the south being too kala-
idescopic.
That free sugar will not be ruin
GUS" to the sugar industry, domestic
or insular, was emphatically stated
by Wilson. He said the trouble with
the industry was that it had not kept
pace with improvements of agricul-
tural conditions in other countries.

been convinced that a road around

the best assets that the city can have.
