WASHINGTON, Sept. 10.—Com- menting upon the success of the Re publican candidate for the House in the Third Congressional District of Maine, Senator Smoot, Republican, of Utah, said to-day: “Of course I am pleased with the result. It mean* that the people of the country do not like the Demo cratic tariff bill and will not have it long.’ Senator Ollie James, Democrat, of Kentucky, said; “The Third District of Maine 1# an old Republican stronghold. If it had not been for the fact that some of the Democrats deserted to the Repub licans the outcome might have been different yesterday/* James It. Mann, minority leader of the House, said: “The results show, first, that the country In decidedly for protection for American Industries, and secondly, the current now Is running strongiy with the Republican party, “My request to Republican speak ers who went up tjiere was that they invite Progressives to come back into the Republican ranks and that the Republican party itself would be suf ficiently progressive to satisfy sane men. "While the Progressives did not all come back, at least one-half did, and I believe the other half soon will. I recognize the fact that the Republican party can not live unless It be pro gressive. One destructive party is enough. That accounts for the Dem ocratic party.” Senator Galliger, of New Hamp shire. Republican leader of the Sen ate, said: “It means that the reaction already has set In.

Chairman Carter Glass, of the House Banking and Currency Committee, opened general debate on the measure in the House to day. “I was present when an eminent banker suggested to President Wil son that tbs Federal Reserve Board might be used for partisan purposes,** Glass said, “and hoard this banker vainly challenged to show how it might be dons. I never shall forget the emphasis with which the Presi dent declared that no man would ever be found who would tarnish his fame by so flagrant a prostitution of his high office.” Where Banks Will Operate. Glass Indicated that Federal re serve banks probably would be locat ed at New York, St. Louis, Cincin nati. Washington, New Orleans and in Pennsylvania. “The batteries of the big banks have been turned upon this board," said Glass, defending the reserve board plan, "and yet there is hardly a power enumerated in this bill which has not been exercised by the Gov ernment for 50 years, or. indeed, which has not been confined to one or two public functionaries."
