(AjitciaUi Prtu Sfpsrf.)
BERLIN November I. The election ot
Wood row Wilson la regarded by the Ger-
man press aa a most unfortunate occur-
rence' for Germany. The newspapers aay
that It gives promise of a reduction of
the tariff which has crippled tha Ger-
many export trade and also of tha aban-
donment of tha policy of tariff "pin
pricks" such aa those connected with
paper pulp and apit peas under which
German-American relations have suffered.
All tha journala however warn tha
Germany commercial' world against ex-
fectlng too much from the democrats in
hii respect and point out that the demo-
cratlo party will be quite as responsive to
the protection of American lniereata as
the republican.

London Newspapers Speak Highly of

(.Associated Prtu Report.)
LONDON November I. The London
papers today speak highly ot Woodrow
Wilson and- of his politics and policies.
The free trade Westminster Gasette says
the people of the United States are clear-
ly ripe for new men and measures and
adds: "Tired of their professional poli-
ticians the American people have decid-
ed to give a new man a trial; so a learned
historian and former college principal
walks Into the White House. '
VMost hearty we wish success to this
experiment with a 'philosopher king' be-
ing made In the unlikely quarter of the
world.
"From our own experience with uni-
versity men in politics we are encouraged
to hope that he will prove aa shrewd and
practical as any of the old stagers In
American politics.'!
Though Roosevelt's position In the poll
according to the Westminster Oasette Jus-
tified his lncursldn Into the election are-
an while President .Taft will get sym-
pathy owing to tha clrcumstanoea which
set him up as the candidate of a divided
party and with the strongest single' per-
sonality In the country disputing hla
claim.
The Evening Standard .Says: "Wood-
row Wilson will command eoniklence In
his own country and In the world outside.
He la a public man of much higher type
than some of those who have .occupied
the White House. The democrats did a
good atroke of business -for their party
when they choose him. They had the
aense to see the great body of respectable
cltisens of the United State were tired
of the sordid squabbling of. party man-
agers with t he accompanying Intrigue and
aelf-aeeking." - ..:'

FOR REVISION OF
' TARIFF DOWNWARD
Tjnderwood Says Wilson Will B
Asked to Call Extra Session of
' Congress for Purpose.
. ;
f (Houston Post Speeioi.)
BIRMINGHAM Ala. November 1
Bills have been drafted and .others 'are
now being drafted looking to general re-
vision of the tariff downward. These bills
will be considered at the special session of
congress expected to be called next
spring. Just -as eoon as Governor Wood -row
Wilson of New Jersey has been In-
augurated president March 4' next he
will have under' consideration the calling
of an extra session- of congress the gen-
eral purpose of which will- be to take up
tariff revision. This Is the program and
In all probability will be the order carried
out.
Congressman Oscar Underwood demo-
cratic floor leader of the houae admits
this is the pis n though he. will not ap-
pear as spokesman for the president The
bills already prepared or under prepara-
tion will contain practically all of the
points contained In the bl 1 1st introduced
by Congressman Underwood during the
past two sessions of congress on the tariff
as well as numerous others As admitted.
Congressman Underwood when made ac-
quainted with tha fact that In tha Bast
it was generally understood he had pre-
pared tariff bills and that these would be
Introduced Juat aa quickly as possible re-
plied that he did not care to give out
any definite interview. That there was
to be a spatial session of congress- eajed
by President Wilson was ' the program
that had been considered and that by that
time every preparation wqold have been
made in the way of writing tariff bills
hs would not deny. ' V .
Congressman Underwood when asked
about the bills said:
'it is true that there are some bUls on
tariff revision under consideration but It
would not be becoming In me to give) out
any interview about them. That the peo-
ple expect action on the tariff question
and' early action; none can gainsay. The
party at no time eliminated .'iljr tariff
