Earnings TAX next
WILL De REACHED IN SENATE IN
A FEW DAYS.
MEANS THREE Weeks DELAY
AZ Least That Much Time Will es
Consumed Before Tariff Bill 10
Voted on BY Senators.

Washington. The corporation tax
question will receive the attention Of
the senate this week. When the sub
ject IL to be taken up depends on the
time to be devoted to the considera-
ton of the house schedules yet to be
considered in connection with the tar
ID. They include the questions of cot
ton ties, cotton bagging, binding
Irvine, steel rails and structural steel.
The southern senators will make q
determined fight in favor of free bag
ging and ties, contending that If bind
ing Irvine is to 60 on the unduitable
list to satisfy the farmers Of the
northwest, the articles in question
should be given the same treatment to
crafty the farmers of the south.
With these items disposed of, the
senate will begin consideration Of the
corporation tax question, in connection
with the income tax question previously
offered by senator Bailey. The corpora
ton tax provision of President Taft
will be presented as a substitute for
the Bailey Cummins amendment and
the fight will turn largely upon the
comparative merits of the two pro-
visions.
The supporters of the administra-
ton are confident of success. They
say that but eight votes for the cor
poration will be. lost from among the
republican senator's. The democrats
will generally vote for the income
tax, but with that out of the way,
many of them will give their adher-
ence to the provision for levying trib-
ute upon the corporations. Estimates
of the time required for the disposition
of this question vary all the way from
one week to two weeks.
After the corporation tax will come
the administrative feature of the bill,
the maximum and minimum rate and
drawback provisions. and other re-
lated questions. Only extremely hot
weather can force action on the bill
within less than three weeks time.
The house has nothing before it and
probably will adjourn from Monday
to Thursday and again from Thursday
without attempting any legislation.

GARFIELD NOTES

Garfield school has adopted q new
plan to deal with the cases Of bad pen
manship. which are occasionally found
among the pupils. In the future these
pupils will be put into a special pen
manship class, to be taught by Prof.
w. S. Hiser. supervisor OF penmanship
and Miss Carrie Lesh. The class will
meet four times q week from $50 to
400 p. M, and will be additional to
the other studies that the pupils must
carry.
Every Friday evening each teacher
in the school will hand in the names
OF the pupils who have done poor writ
ten work, because either of careless
ness or inability to write legibly.
From these lists the roll of the new
class will be made. When a pupil is
once assigned to this class he must at
tend until his penmanship is raised to
the required standard. Then il he
lapses into careless ways again he is
reassigned to the class for the remain
der of the time he spends in Garfield.
The new plan is already much dis
cussed by patrons and pupils. Some
patrons are SO impressed with the idea
that they have asked that their chill
dren be assigned to the class for the
practice, even though they are not
compelled to take the work.
The Civil School, or governing body
Of pupils at Garfield, has elected its
officers and appointed its standing
committees for the present term. Pro-
fcssor N. G. Heironimus is president,
