ing passed the House some time ago.
Representative Covington was not the
only member of the House, however,
asked to help the Senate dispose of the
trade commission bill before the Sen
ate. Previously Representative r. B.
Stevens of New Hampshire, who is
running for the Senate there on the
Democratic ticket, proposed amend
ments, which the President approved
and which the Senate interstate COM
mercc committee accepted.
The great efforts to coax business
into a more friendly attitude toward
the administration continue to be very
noticeable. 1t was not many months
ago, as the reports run, that import
ant business men in New York sought
the President to present phases of
the business depression for his consid-
Grafton. They were emphatically re-
bHffed according to the same reports.
MIR. Frank Vanderlip, president OF the
National City bank, was one Of these
who desired a little of the Presidents
attention to suggestions he had to
make. Now big business men are be-
ing encouraged to visit the White
House offices and the President seems
to be doing all he can to encourage an
entente with them. Meanwhile he is
dwelling much upon his contention
that the business depression is only
psychological and that times would be
much better # only men would not
talk SO much about times being hard.
And under cover of this propaganda
the President is urging the completion
of his antitrust legislation as the pa
nacea for the hesitation of industry.
All in all it is quite a striking situa-
ton.
Washington never thinks very hard
about more than one trouble at a
time. When something new comes up,
the old troubles are forgotten for the
time being. So it is that the Mexican
troubles in which the administration
has been involved for months have
been rather secondary of late. No one
has figured out quite what the media
ton at Niagara Falls amounted to
any way, unless it furnished an excuse
for not prosecuting the campaign there
with the army and sending Funston
to Mexico City. The mediators quit
Niagara Falls many days ago and
there is an appearance of a recess.
Huerta quit Mexico because the armies
of the Constitutionalists are close
upon him. The protocol that the
United States arranged with him seems
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1914-07-17

to be Of decidedly little moment. There
is fiction that the representatives of
CarranZa and of Huerta are trying to
get together under the auspices of the
medlators to arrange internal ques-
lions as to Mexico. There, again, the
public is kept in ignorance. The plain
people are left to guess what all this
may signify. Possibly they may be
let into the secret if ever Mexico is
composed and order is restored. At
best, that will be months. If reports
at Washington can be believed, the
minute Mexico City falls into the
hands of Carranza, he and Villa will
have scores to settle among them
selves. This may mean a new revolu-
ton and fresh troubles which will ne
cessitate the sending of troops up to
Mexico city after all.
So many other things are pressing,
that slight attention has been given at
the Capitol to Investigations of the
Columbia and the Nicaragua treaties.
Nevertheless these are decidedly live
subjects before the Senate. The For
eign relations committee is conducting
the Investigations and one of these
days will have reports to present. Pre-
sumably they will find adversely on
both treaties but that is yet to appear.
The Presidents difficulties with Con-
gress have recently been emphasized
from new quarter. 1t was over his
special message asking an appropria-
ton of 100000 for the relief of the
people of Salem, Mass, which was
swept by a disastrous conhagration.
The President did not take the Demo-
cratic leaders of the House into his
confidence at all. He simply sent the
special message. The House appropri-
atoms committee proceeded to turn
down the Presidents request. He then
tried the matter on with the Senate
and personally asked certain of the
leaders there to help. The Senate COM
piled, put the appropriation on as a
rider to one of the big supply bills and
thus the House was forced into compli-
ance. But the leaders there are sui
len md are saying that one of these
deys, when opportunity offers they
will get even with the White House.
And probably they will.

Appealed Cases Argued
Wednesday Before the
Law Court at Portland

Three cases on the Lincoln county
docket and one on the oxford, which
completed these two counties, were
argued Wednesday before the law
court at Portland. The Lincoln cases
that were argued are as follows:
Bert E. Dodge VS.. Charles F. Dodge
ct ais, in equity. This was an action
to determine a trust under the will
of Isaac Dodge, late .of Newcastle, ap-
pointed by probate court of Lincoln.
A. S. Littlefield for plaintiff, and Will
liam T. Hall for defendants.
Inhabitants of Boothbay Harbor VS..
Clara A. Marson, administrators of
the estate of Woodbury. Marson, late
of Boothbay Harbor This was an &C
ton on bond given by the late
Woodbury. Marson and others to the
town of Boothbay Harbor as sureties
for Fred C. Blake as town treas
urer and collector, who, 1t is alleged,
did not make an accounting for $764.SI.
This case came up to the law court on
report. ]. B. Perkins and w. r. Pat
tangall for plaintiffs and C, R. Tup-
per and A. S. Littlefield for defend
ants.
ant and so the case came up on ex-
ceptions. c. NJ. P. Larrabee and c. r.
Upper appeared for the plaintiff and
Charles L. Macurda and A. S. Little
field defendant.
This was plea for forcible entry
and detainer involving property at
Boothbay Harbor, the title of which
was removed from the municipal
court to the supreme court, where a
verdict was given the plaintiff.
This completed the list of Lincoln
county cases that were to be argued
orally.
The only case on the oxford county
docket that was argued orally was
that of Nelson P. Cummings VS.. Dirigo
Mutual Fire Insurance Co. This case
came up on exceptions by the defend
ant. Gray & White of South Paris
appeared for the plaintiff and II. & W.
J. Knowlton, and S. w. Gould for the
defendant
