ISSUES WARMING TO HUNTERS.
Governor Baxter Asks Them to Protect
Maine Forests.

AUGUSTA, Me, Sept. Ex-Governor
Baxter issued yesterday this warning:
Il urge hunters and all others who go
into the woods to cooperate with our for
est service in doing everything to protect
the valuable timber lands of the state.
Il hope that the opening of the hunting
season will not be followed by an increase
of the number of forest fires.
Under the laws of the state the gov
ernor has authority to suspend the open
season for hunters and he can prohibit the
carrying of firearms in the forests of the
state. but this authority should be used
only in case of real emergency.
Our forests must be protected from
fire and every precaution against fire must
be taken by those who are about to enjoy
the liberal privilege which the state gives
them to hunt in and enjoy the woods of

HOUSE DEMOCRATS
TO FIGHT TAX BILL
WITH UNITED FORCE

WASHINGTON, Aug. Il. The
House took up the Republican tax re-
vision bill today under a rule calling
for a final vote late Saturday. General
debate was limited to two days, with
the remaining time given to consider
alton of amendments under the FIVE
minute speech limitation.
Before the house met the Democratic
members assembled in caucus for a
third time to complete plans for their
fight on the measure. They held their
first session yesterday afternoon and
the second last night, but failed to
reach final conclusions after nearly
five hours of discussion.
1t was understood that most of the
time was given over to the wording of
a resolution under which the members
would be bound to vote solidly
against the Republican BILL This
resolution was drawn after the caucus
had received telegram from Repre-
sentative Kitchin. the Democratic lead
er, who is i'll at Scotland Neck, North
Carolina, urging united opposition.
Busy on Report.
Democratic members of the WAYS
and means committee, were busy early
today on their minority report, which,
it was understood would attack the
means by which the republicans ar
rived at some of the tax reductions pro.
posed charging that tie changes would
benefit largely the rich. They had
until Friday to file their report.
Chairman Fordney, of the WAYS and
Means committee, had charge of the
bill on the floor and was expected to
divide the time for general debate
about evenly between tho Democrats
and Republicans.
1t was expected that there would be
about seven hours of discussion on
each side today and tomorrow.
Under the Republican rule, amend
ments offered by majority members OF
the Ways and Means committee would
be given priority when the bill is taken
Up for amendment Friday morning.

"The different classes in the coun-
try must have more faith in each
other" said A. H. Hess, superintend-
ent of Jackson township schools, Tues
day. During the war all classes lost
confidence in each other and distrust
became universal.
From that distrust has come much
friction and with each class striving
for its own advantage, instead of
working to produce more and improve
business as whole, we have our
present condition as a result II we
could have better feeling between the
classes. the difference would soon
vanish"

ference on reduction of ornaments
will have seen service in the U. S.
senate, according to well authenti-

garded as the dean of American
statesmen. Those who have discussed
the matter with President Harding
say that Mr.. Root certainly can have
a place on the commission If he wants
it.
Senator Lodge. by virtue of his
position as chairman of the foreign
relations committee, is obviously en-
titled to head the representation from
the senate.
Senator Knox the president believes
to be eminently qualified for member
ship on the commission, not because
he is a senator but because of his
familiarity with diplomacy and inter
national relations.

dent is known to admire Underwood
and to have great confidence in his
