UNDERWOOD DRAFTED THE FARMERS’ FREE LIST BILL AND
SUCCEEDED IN GETTING IT PASSED BY CONGRESS. TAFT VETOED
IT. WHO, THEN, IS THE PROPER MAN TO RUN AGAINST TAFT?
THEY’VE BURNED THE WOODS UNO
SIFTED THE ASHES BUT THEY GAN
FIND NOTHING AGAINST UNDERWOOD
(From Macon Telegraph.)
Some days ag© it was urged in Georgia that the people of this state
ought to vote against Underwood, because, as it was said, he had “ap
pointed Congressman Lamb of Virginia, chairman of the agricultural
committee, .Lamb's offense, as charged, being that in sixteen years he
had cast one vote not approved by some of the farmers.
The Telegraph promptly pointed out that the chairman of the ways
and means committee (Underwood) did not have the power to appoint
the chairmen of the other committees of the liouse—that the coinmi
tees and their chairmen were elected by vote of the house.
Now they have amended the charge by saying that Underwood voted
for Lamb.
The Telegraph does not know whether or not Underwood voted for
Lamb, as the vote was taken in caucus, but this fact is known: John
Lamb entered the Fifty-fifth congress and for sixteen years has been
a member of the agricultural committee. In the Fifty-eighth congress
he became the ranking Democrat and held that position during the four
succeeding congresses. When the Democrats came into control in this,
the Sixty-second congress, by every right of rank and precedent known
in parliamentary affairs he bad won the chairmanship and practically
without opposition. Besides this he is an old Confederate soldier, hav
ing served in Lee's army and fought through the entire war and wounded
several times. He Is one of the few remaining Confederate veterans In
Congress. He is a fine type of Southern gentleman and an old-fashioned
Democrat.
Things hav# come to a pretty pass if Underwood is to be voted against
for president because he voted for this old soldier and Democrat to a po
sition which he had won by every precedent—a precedent which made
Hardwick chairman of the committee on coinage, Adamson chairman
of the committee on commerce. Sparkman of Florida chairman of the
rivers and harbors committee, and so on. '*
For two months the opposition has had a corp 3 of experts critically
examining the congressional records, and they have yet to find an action
or utterance of Mr. Underwood which they can criticise.
