DEMOCRATS GROUCHY
At REPUBLICAN CLUB?
ElizabethvilIe Puzzles Over Wash
ington Authorities Failure
to Accept Quarters

Elizabethville Pa, Dec. 81. -- Did the
national administration at Washing
ton refuse to permit the use of w. j.
Daniels newly remodeled store build
ing at the behest OF some of the lead
ing Democrats here. because Mr.. Dan
iels had recently rented a part of the
building to the Republican Club for
headquarters?
The folks here are at a loss for a
better solution to the queer and sudden
decision of the Government authori-
ties in the matter. Here are the facts:
iels, he was asked by postal inspector
whether he would consider making
some necessary alterations and re-
modelling of his building for use ms
prospective post office because the
present quarters are inadequate, Mr..
Daniels agreed and did a lot of re-
modelling, bought some fixtures and in
fact was ready to turn over the build
ing by December /. No word came
from the Post Office Department at
Washington. Mr.. Daniels figured that
January l would be the time selected.
And yesterday he got a letter to the
effect that the Government had decided
not to use his building.
Rumor has been current for quite a
while to the effect that Democrats, sore
to the verge of tears. at the way
things went---or rather didn't GO
at the November election. had taken
the grave problem up with Messrs. Nc
Cormick and Palmer. eX-candidates.
And the argument advanced, 1t is said,
was that Mr. Daniels building ought
not to be used as post ofhce-because
the owner was Republican and rented
other portions of his building TO the
Republican Club.

MANN MAKES ATTACK
ON UNDERWOOD TARIFF
Representative Introduces Resolu-
tion Calling For Report on
Bill For Board of Experts

Washington, Dec. 31.-Thhe fight to
create tariff board for a scientific
and businesslike revision of the tariff
is on in earnest in this session. Repre-
sentative Mann, encouraged by indie
pendent Democrats who will serve in
the next Congress, yesterday follow
ed up his bill for such a board by a
resolution calling upon the ways and
means committee to report the bill.
His resolution attacking the present
tariff declares that it has caused de-
preston equal to that existing in the
Cleveland administration. 1t is an in
dictment of the Democratic policy
written by the minority leader, who
now figures as a possibility for the
Republican nomination for President.
1t reads. in part:
Whereas, the Democratic free trade
tariff law, by refusing to give due pro-
lection to American industries, has
brought hard times upon the country
and caused widespread depression
such as has not existed since the free
trade days of President Cleveland's ad-
ministration, and.
Whereas, great majority OF the
puDilc DeneVe IN protecting ana FOSTER
ing home industries by a protective
tariff sufficiently but not yoppressively
high; and,
Whereas, the proper rates for
protective tariff can best be ascertain
ed by accurate, scientific investigation
made by a permanent board of disin-
terested members and with the full
knowledge thereby acquired reported
to Congress; and
sslNhnrnac Of 80
be made along particular lines is GER
tain TO be had following the next ma
tional election, and information for
such revision ought properly to be OBJ
tanned in advance:
Therefore, be is resolved. that the
committee of ways and means be di-
rected to report as speedily as possible
a bill creating a tariff board"
representative Underwood, Demo-
cratic leader, denied the failure of the
Democratic tariff, as represented in
Mt. Mann's resolution.
