Democrats Alone Responsible.

Democrats Alone Responsible.
The United States Senate on We'd
nesday last tabled a motion to
strike out Of the sundry civil bill the
provision exempting labor organiza-
lions and farmers associations from
prosecution for violating the Sher-
man antitrust law and then rejected
an amendment to insert the words
''by lawful means" which would pre-
vent the exemption of these organi-
cations whenever they resort to I'M
lawful means. On the first motion
forty-one democrats and seven re-
publicans voted for it and seventeen
republicans and one democrat
against it. On the second PROPOSE
ton twenty-one republicans and one
democrat voted in favor of it and
three republicans and thirty-tive
democrats voted against it.
This shows the democrats clearly
responsible for this dangerous class
legislation. They are ready to grant
the men with the votes anything ask
ed even the performance of illegal acts
and exemption from punishment for
the same. Both of Vermont's SEN
ators voted right on the question
and can never be charged with pro-
noting anarchy and destructive class
legislation.

The Government and the Tourists,

Wholly unprepared as it was for such
an unprecedented emergency, the United
States government has acquitted itself
wonderfully well during the past month
in aiding its citizens in Europe to wealth
er the storm OF war and to return safe
ly to their homes.
The worst OF the emergency has
passed. Fourteen thousand Americans
sailed from England last week and there
will be accommodations for $4,000 more
the coming week. The American who
wishes to come home and cannot must
be in peculiar difficulties, in view OF the
efforts made by the government to help
him. In an official statement the state
department announces that Americans
anywhere upon the continent can, by
applying to the nearest embassy or lega-
ton, get in touch with people in this
country. can get money il they need
any. and can get transportation and pas
sage home if they want it" Ten or
more ships have been chartered under
government authority at places where
existing transportation facilities were in
ADEQUATE. Those who are without funds
will come Just like those who have
funds: and if any are destitute they
need never repay to the government the
cost of their passage.
The government has accomplished its
unique task by promptness in action,
by cutting through red tape without
hesitation, and by sending gold abroad in
two warships to be disbursed by the as
sistant secretary OF war in person, aid

AGREE ON
TRADE BILL
The Vote Was 43 to 5 on the
Report in the
Senate
WHOLE DAY SPENT
IN ROLL CALLS
To-day Report Goes to the
House for Consid-
GRAFTON

Washington, Sept. l0.--The conference
report on the federal trade commission
bill was agreed to in the Senate Tuesday
afternoon by vote of 80 to 5. Virtual
| " the entire day had been spent IN roll
calls to enforce the attendance Of a
quorum. Senators Burton, Gallinger.
| NcC'imber, Oliver and Smoot voted
against the report. The conference re.
port will be taken up in the House to.
/ day.
! It took 81 rollcalls before vote was
recorded in the Senate, the struggle to
secure quorum having begun on sat.
urday. Time after time call OF the
Senate disclosed a bare quorum present
which disappeared when the roll was
called on a vote.
Just before the final vote was TAX
en-, drastic action, such as the issuance
of writs to compel absent senators 10
attend, was proposed. Sergeant ALARMS
Higgins telephoned and telegraphed to
absent senators, stating the situation
and urging them to return. Meantime,
he succeeded In getting 40 members into
the Senate chamber, and another roilcail
was ordered. Rolcall showed As sen.
ators voting and two present who were
unable to vote because of pairs, and the
report was agreed to.
Senator Reed of Missouri attacked the
report repeatedly although he later vot.
ed for it, He criticized Representative
Stevens Of New Hampshire and George
II. Rublee, who aided in framing the
bill, declaring they were working on a
plan to "emasculate the antitrust laws
and that the trade commission bill was
part of the plan.
The conference report provides for a
federal trade commission with authority
to issue orders to prevent unfair meth
DDS of competition" The enforcement
of the orders of the commission, how
ever, is left to the courts.

MAKING UP

Pullman Tickets Con-
sidered

Washington, Sept. l0.-President Will
son opposes an extension OF and increase
in the income tax as part of the pro-
pramme for raising additional revenue
for the government to offset the esti-
mated loss in customs receipts at the
rate Of Sl00,000,000 year.
House Leader Underwood and Chair
man Simmons OF the Senate finance
committee both of whom oppose the pro-
posal, and Chairman Fitzgerald of the
House appropriation committee, con.
ferred with the president yesterday and
were told that in his opinion an in
crease in the income tax would not be
suitable for the emergency, because no
returns would be realized until next
year. In his message to Congress on the
subject he asked that sources of rev.
enuc he selected which would respond
quickly.
Moreover, the president believes that
the plan proposed by the Democrats OF
tue ways and means committee would be
a bad move politically.
The committee tentatively decided
upon an income tax increase Of one-llalf
of | per cent. and reduction of the
minimum exemption from $1,000 to 81
00n, and the maximum exemption from
$4,000 to $1,000. Under this proposal
it is estimated customs deficit would be
raised
Under TIE proposed changes the tax
would be ~ per cent. on Incomes OF
single persons in excess OF $1,000, and
the same on married persons in excess
OF $4,000. This would be in addition
to the surtax and incomes in excess Of
$4,000 now imposed.
As result Of the objections noted
it is expected the plan viii fail. The
presidents opposition will probably
block it in the House. In the Senate,
with the president and Senator Simmons
against it, it is not likely to be adopted.
Simmons has not called a meeting of
his committee and il is not yet clear
what lines that committee will follow
in opposition.
