Little was known tonight as to
tho cause OF the fire and subsequent

this was followed by an explosion.
The materials used by the painters

The painters were at work in A

Regarded as Sig n a
Victory for Senator
Hale of Maine
Means Best Fertilizers at Rea-
sOnable Price for Maine Far
mers - Saving of Nearly
Three-Quarters Of Million
Dollars Senator Worked
Hard to Gain Point
Especial to Kennebec JournaD

Washington, D. c., Aug. s-This
afternoon on the floor Of the Senate,
Senator Frederick Hale achieved the
greatest triumph and biggest victory
since he took his seat in 1917, when
the Senate voted S. to TO put pot
ash on the free list. This will mean a
saving to the farmers Of Maine of
nearly three quarters OF a million
dollars as we'll as a saving to the
farmers throughout the United
States. Senator Hale was congratu-
lated by his colleagues for having won
such victory in having the Senate
vote almost unanimously in favor of
the committee amendment.
Months ago when the Aroostooll
farmers first asked Senator Hale to
have potash put on the free list it
looked like an impossible task. In
April Senator Hale introduced in the
Senate an amendment to the tariff
bill providing that potash used in
commercial fertilizer shall be admit
ted free Of duty. In June Senator
committee of the Senate and urged
that the committee accept this
amendment. AS result of his argu-
ment the committee voted to accept
the House provision and place potash
on the free list.
When potash came up today in the
Senate it was expected that there
would be fight against the commit
tee amendment but there was but one
dissenting vote. SiXty-siX senators
backing up Senator Halcs PROPOSE
ton made it possible for potash to
come into this country free of duty
thus assuring farmers in Maine and
elsewhere of the best potash that can
be obtained for use in commercial
fertilizer
This signal victory for the junior
senator from Maine shows his intlu-
ence and power in the United States
Senate and every farmer in the state
of Maine Will realize just what this
means.
