WANTS FARMERS TO PRODUCE ALCOHOL .(Continued from arst page). Other provisions require the use of expensive r]enaluring materials; and otherwise the manufacture is hedged about by restrictions impossible for the farmer to comply with. Senator Lane’s bill wipes out all these restrictions with a sentence and substitutes a law which permits a farmer without bond to any sort of a distilling apparatus, providing only that the distillant must go through a meter into a seal- ed tank in which the denaturing liquid has first been placed. Such an outfit can be made bu any tinsmith for a few dollars. Denaturing means the addition of any substance which makes the alchol unfit to drink. For a denaturing agent Dr. Lane’s ' bill prescribes tobacco leaves, which can be grown on almost any farm in the United tSates. This bill ought to be incorporated as part of the pendind tariff bill. President Wilson has become reatly interested in it. Senator Lane esti- mates that farm products to .the value of $100,000,000 go to aste an- nually. Most of this could be saved by distillation. If you are interested in this conversation, affecting the pocketbook of all of us, you wil Jose no time letting your senators and representatives konw of your wishes. “FARMESS CLUBS POPULAR,” GILE (Continued from first page). help organize the club.

BAER operate i PRESIDENT FIRM ACAINST RECESS Opposed to Delay in Cur- rency Legislation. NO DEALS WITH MINORITY Believes Democrats Should Go Ahead and Carry Out Platform [Yedges and Not Agree to Any Trades With the Republicans. ‘Washington, Aug. 18.—President ‘Wilson informed Democratic senators that he, is opposed unalterably to any recess of the senate between the time the tariffi bill passed and currency is taken up. He made it plain that hé believes it the duty of the Democratic party not to hestiate in its program of leg- islative reform, but to dispose of the | tariff and currency during the present session of congress, so that the De- cember session may take up promptly anti-trust and other important legisla- tion carrying out platform pledges. Secretary Tumulty was in touch with most of the Democratic senators and came to the conclusion that a substantial majority was in favor of immediate legislation and no recess. Incidentally the president took a strong position on the question of leg- islative agreements between Demo- crats and Republicans in congress. He believes that the Democrats, as the dominant party, should proceed with determination and not trade with the minority. The fact that Republican senators informally had agreed to speed up consideration of the tariff bill if a re- cess were assured after its passage prompted the president to urge that business throughout the country de- manded early action on the tariff re- gardless of whather any vacation or recess was promised in return. ON TRAIL- OF ORGANIZERS Traction Officials Watch Exits of Em. ployes’ Meeting All Night. Indianapolis, Aug. 15.—A humorous situation developed here when offi- clals of traction companies entering Indianapolis were sleepily awaiting for trainmen employed by the various lines to emerge from a building where they completed the formation of a union.

During the entire night the officials remained at their posts, declaring they would not leave until the employes, came from the building. The train- men chose to remain in the hall rather than to leave and be recognized by their superiors. NOW LAUDS THE GOVERNOR Girl Who Recently Sued Sulzer for Al- leged treach of Promise. Philadelphia, Aug. 15.—Miss Mig- non Hopkins, the former Brooklyn young woman who lighted the first fuse and threw the first bomb in the political warfare against Governor Sul- zer, admitted that she is sorry for the governor and emphasized her state- ment thus: “But Billy Sulzer is no quitter and tears shed now inight be wasted. His enemies will find before they get through with him that he can fight.” It was Miss Hopkins who caused a sensation several weeks ago by in- stituting breach of promise proceed- ings against Governor Sulzer. She charged that several years ago he had wooed and won her, promised to make her his wife, only eventually to marry Miss Rodelheim of Philadelphia, who was found by his side when he was accused of irregularities ln the con- duct of his office.
