STILL DIF FER'
ON SCHEDULES
Will Join Western Democrats
to Protest Against Putting
Wool On Free List.
Washington, D. G., April o.

Washington, D. e., April ~.
Senator walsh Of Montana will to-
morrow join the body Of western
Democrats in order to voice protest
against the placing Of raw wool and
sugar on the free list. Senator
Meyers will not attend this meet
ing, as he is not in sympathy with
the movement. The hearing was
planned by Senator Newlands Of
Nevada, who is strongly opposed
both to free wool and free sugar,
and he has.held several conferences
at his house held by western sena-
tors. Senator Meyers attended the.
first conference; at which Senator
Newlands outlined his plan, bnthef
then explained his unwillingness
to join the movement because Of
his views, heretofore announced..
and since then he has not been i'll
vited to cooperate with Newlands
and his faction. Senator Walsh
has attended the other conferences
and probably will make one of the
speeches before the finance com
mitee tomorrow afternoon.
Senator Myers said today that
he had received many letters today
and telegrams from Montana dem
ocrats commencing his stand for
free wool and free sugar, and some
who have written him have ex-
pressed the hope that the entire.
Montana elegation will stand by
President Wilson and Secretary
Bryan on their tariff program. On
ly fvesor six Montana sheepmen
have written Senator Meyers urg-
ing him to vote for duty on wool
and none of these have taken ex-
ception to or referred to his posi-
tion as outlined in several inter
views.

THE TRUE CHRISTMAS

IT'S beautiful custom-this Christ
mas,
Remembering each old friend,
With some little tardy memento
Which takes with it love without
end;
IT'S sweet to be thus held in memory
By one you hold close to yolr
heart.
But at Yuletide let's not be forget
ting
That the gifts are but one little
part.
There's far grander, holier lesson
To be cleaned from this season OF
cheer.
1t isn't just jewels that are craved
BY the ones to whom we are near;
Give kindness and love and assist
ance,
Not only to body but soul.
And you'll find that you're drawing
much closer
To the seasons significant goal.
Give word of sweet solacing com
fort
To those who are laden with woe
Give sympathy where you can mete
Hold no such thing as a foe;
Send some little glimmer OF sunshine
TO the lives that are far from the
light,
IT'S then that you'll know the full
meaning
OF that star that shone forth in
the night!
