Now the mayor permitted himself to be shorn Of the frosted locks and a scramble is had for souvenirs of the city's pride. The hirsute adornment was ruthlessly cut by the barber, and the mayor is now kept busy explaining. The strenuous objection raised may cause the mayor to grow another crop which appears to be the only way to appease sur prised and indignant populace-

 SENATE ID PROVE COSTLY
Insiders in Washington Realize President is in Full Sympathy With Cannon-DaIzeil Crowd and That Chief Exe-
 cutve Pronounced Reactonary

tens of thousands of stockholders whose total incomes are very small and will exempt in large measures the immense personal incomes of tht country.
 There is no reason for exemptins from this tax the vast incomes of in comes of individuals like Carnegie Rockefeller. and others. a very iarsc part of whose fortunes do not consist of corporation stocks"
 It is the general pinion here that President Taft has stirred up hor nets nest in entering the fight agains. the income tax, and that the buzzing will continue to the last day he oc cupies the White House. The prog nostication that his alliance with the standpatters will prevent his renomi' nation is being made freely.
 Taft's appointments and his policies his cabinet and his official acts and, incidentally his affiliations, DO litical, personal, and legislative, have practically resulted in the Roosevelt endorsement being withdrawn. While no word has been heard from Col Roosevelt, the latter's close friends do not hesitate to express the opinion that President Taft will wait in vain for the Roosevelt endorsement of his administration thus far.
 It has been noticeable that the Taft administration has given constant comfort to the enemies of Roosevelt and that, Hartman, Rockefeller and Morgan are really in the saddle. The substitution of a tax for two years only, on the net earnings of corpora tions, for an income tax, which would have hit heaviest the three money kings, emphasizes the hold these men have on the present administration.
 It is interesting in view of recent developments to recall the earliest criticisms of President Taft by the Roosevelt followers.
 They declared that Taft showed his allegiance to Rockefeller by appoint ing Charles Nagle. attorney for the Waters-Pierce {Standard) Oil Co. head of the department in which is located the bureau of corporations.
 They charged that to please J. Pier pont Morgan, Taft appointed as at torney general, to administer the laws Morgan's personal attorney, George C. Wickersham.
 For the other members of his cabi' net the new president selected men who. it as averred, were entirely sat isfactory to the vested interests, and that Wall street influences were thor oughly in control also of the law making machinery of the government.
 These allegations have been sub stantiated as opportunities have of fered

LOS ANGELES, June 25.-Pro and con and fore and aft and every other imaginable way, the Arizonans are planning to come to Los Angeles this summer
 They are here in goodly numbers every summer, when old Phoebus Apollo smiles too much upon their territory. but their arrival here in the next two or three months promises to eclipse all previous statistics.
 John s. Mitchell, manager of the Hollenbeck hotel, secretary of the Arizona Hassayampa club of Los An geies and generally one of the best posted Los Angeles men on Arizona and, best liked by Arizonans, says the people of the sun-kissed territory will take this city by storm and by every train.
 While there are some here all the year round" said Mir. Mitchell. they now are coming daily in ever-increas ing numbers. and when the Elks grand lodge is held they will be here by the hundreds.
 This hotel will be the headuarters for the Arizona Elks. 1000 of whom already have signified their intention of coming and of bringing their wives With them.
 50 far as the general season is concerned there never are fewer thar 5e9G in the season, and this year that number promises to be greatly in creased. All parts of the territory and all lines of business will he ieD resented.
 Arrangements already are beinf made for the annual outing of the Arizona Hassayanpa club of Los An geles in August. and indications are that the yearly celebration will be tremendous success as usual. When one considers that, accord ing to NJ. C. Zunwalt, secretary of th' Tulare board of trade, now guest il this hotel, that city does an annua business of s1,060.0o with Arizona he readily can see what Arlzoni friendship means to Angelenos- All Arizonans like Los Angeles they spend their money freely her i and they feel at home. Their interest are linked with those of this city. i The influx of Arizonans, how ever, is not the only one to be enjoye' this summer I have letters iron | nearly every part of the country ask | iAg information about this city an containing declarations of intention t' | come"

THE GREAT OAK OF FRANCE.

Near Dax, in southwestern France, exists a very remarkable oak, which is an object of veneration for the inhab- itants of the surrounding regions Its short trunk is encircled with gigantic raised roots, giving it. at the, level of the ground, circumference of eighty two feet. s-t
 The massive branches spread over circle so broad that soc persons can find room beneath them. The age of the tree is estimated to be not less than S2,000 years, yet it shows few signs of decrepitude. although the interior of the trunk is hollow. It is the first tree in the neighborhood to cover itself with leaves and the last to be de- prived of them. At the junction of the immense branches are two cavities which are always full of water. and the peasants ascribe miraculous properties to this water. once every year there iS d pilgrimage to the sacred oak of Quillacq. and at midnight between June 23 and 2i the pilgrims begin their devotions around the foot of the tree.
