The evil effects that follow many dis

Especial Correspondence.1

Washington, June 15.-President
Taft, according to the latest reports,
may go to the extent of sending
special message to congress in advo-
cacy Of tax on the profits of cor
pc rations, If no less insistent method
will serve to line up the republican
income takers for it. Even if he does
SO, however, it is regarded as extreme
ly doubtful if he can make the meas
ure a success.
Tor more than week the progress
sive republicans have been subjected
to appeals on behalf of this tax, based
on the claim that it would compel cor
porations to make detailed, specific,
sworn statements concerning their af-
fairs, which would be of the greatest
value in shedding light on their opera
lions. This argument was at first ex-
pected to line up all the radicals; but
| it has not had that effect. They were
told that the administration wanted to
execute in the most effective way the
program of rigorous regulation of COR
pcrations and big aggregations of cap
| ital, and that the very first requisite
was to get the facts about them. A
| law requiring them to bare their in
re rmost business secrets, 1t was insist
| ed, would give to the administration
and to the public the very light which
has been desired.
But the income tax people were not
moved They replied that 1t would not
work. Said one of them:
| III you attempt to pass a measure
that would give such complete pub
Lefty as this, 1t will not pass. The
corporations will oppose it. Why, under
the income tax law of 1904 the detailed
statements of property and income
were guarded in the utmost confidence,
and even then there was doubt about
4, the effectiveness of the requirement. In
the first place, it would not he fair to
compel all corporations to tell the
Whole truth about their business. 1t
would give competitors the opportuni-
fty to learn business secrets which no
business concern can afford to lay be-
fore its opposition. That is the legiti-
mate ground for opposition. The 9TH
er ground is that the big concerns
whose methods are such that they
Edon't want the light let in, would bring
all possible influence to bear against
such a measure. The corporation som
ators and representatives would be
found lined up solidly against such a
measure just as soon as they under
stood wha- j, really involved: and that
would be very soon.
Finally, this publicity business Is
all right, but it has not produced the
results we used to expect from it, The
| bureau of corporations was intended to
be the search-light department, but its
work has been commonly regarded as
pretty much of a failure The depart
ment of justice has been provided with
ample funds for investigation and for
| prosecution under the Sherman act
with dubious results. The interstate

LuTAERANs WANT UNION.
Plans Under Way to Unite Three
Branches of Church

's''S O''AS' way W SUtS0 ttuSS
Branches of Church.
Des Moines, June 15.-With all doc
trinal differences forever laid aside the
three great national church bodies of
the Norwegian Lutheran church may
become united into one church fedora
ton with one uniform book of common
church practices and ministerial acts
and one hyInnal.
Yesterday the United Norwegian
Lutheran church in session again ex-
tended the hand of fellowship to the
other two wings of the church, The
Hauge and Norwegian synods, which
are also in national sessions. The
convention, which has had committee
at work for the last year in connection
with the Joint committee endeayoring
to complete joint hymnal and minis
terial acts, again extended invitation
TO the other synods to become one
church union with the United Lutheran
church. Altho each of the church
bodies is favorable to the consolidation,
because of the adjustment of doctrinal
beliefs it is not believed that the union
can come until next year. The COM
mittee appointed yesterday to secure
the union of the three church bodies
include Rev. o. G. Besheum, Rev. C. T.
Pugh and Prof. c. A. Melby
One of the greatest surprises of the
convention was the anonymous gift
yesterday of $4,000 from a widow to
be used for the erection and main
tenance of home for the aged There
is one home for the aged at Witten-
berg, Wis, but it is believed that the
new home will be located in center
more accessible than the town of Wit
tenberg. The gift is made contingent
upon its secrecy. So far $4,000 has
been given and as rapidly as possible
the unknown donor will turn her prop
erty into cash and into the hands Of
the board
