SPECIAL MESSAGE
SUBMITTED To
CONGRESS
President Suggests An
Amendment Which
Will Enable Gov
ernment to Tax
Big Incomes
(By United Press Leased Wire. }

(By United Press Leased Wire. j.
WASHINGTON, June 16.-Rec-
Iommending the adoption of joint
resolution by two-thirds of both
houses proposing to the states an
amendment to the constitution
granting the federal government
the right to levy and collect an in
come tax, President Taft sent a
special message to congress today.
The message also recommends
as part of the pending tariff bill
an excise tax upon all corporations
Amounting to two per cent of their
net income.
Necessity for Revision
In opening, the message refers
to the fact that President Taft in
vited the attention of congress to
the necessity of revision of the
tariff and to his having pointed
out the obligation to arrange dut-
les which would secure an ade-
quate income for the government.
Today's message refers to the
presidents previous suggestion
that If it is not possible to secure
a sufficient income by import dut-
ies, new kinds of taxation must be
adopted. Among them he sug-
gested the inheritance tax. On this
subject the message says:
''The house of representatives
has adopted the suggestion and
provided bill for the collection
of ksuch a tax. In the senate the
action of the finance committee
and the course of the debate in
dicates that this provision may
not be agreed to.
Up Against Snag.
"It Is now proposed to make up
the deficit by the imposition of a
federal income tax in form and
substance almost exactly the same
as that in the case of Pollock VS..
the Farmers Loan and Trust
company, which was held by the
supreme court to be a direct tax
and therefore not within the power
of the federal government to i'm
pose unless apportioned among
the several states according to
their population.
SOHtilulue diOuS tulb liut TIC
president states that the govern
ment is thus deprived of power 1t
ought to have and mature consid-
GRAFTON satisfies him that a consti-
tdtional amendment is the only
proper course for the establish
ment of this power to the fullest
extent.
Text Of Message.
The message then says:
"I therefore recommend to con-
gress that both houses by two
thirds vote shall propose az
amendment to the constitution con-
ferring power to levy an income
tax upon the government without
|apportionment among the states In
proportion to their population.
81 also recommend an amend
ment to the tariff bill imposing
on all corporations and Joint stock
companies. organized for profit,
except national banks otherwise
taxed) savings banks and building
and loan associations, an excise
method by two per cent on the net
income of such corporations"

It Was Our Sixth Election.
The city clerk says it was the
sixth election since January / and
he has kept count. Possibly the
voters who have been called upon
about once a month or so to vote
lon something concluded they
would vote for everybody and
everything just this once and try
to settle it at that.
Both Funny and Serious.
City Clerk Roys says, anyway,
it was the funniest election he
ever saw, aside from the serious
phase of 1t that in city of 10000
voters or more only 1880 can be
brought out to vote on the ques-
ton of changing the fundamental
law of the municipality.

Hamilton Is
Arrested
Again
FORMER ADJUTANT GENERAL
FACES ANOTHER EMBEZ-
FIXED AT $4,000.

(By United Press Leased Wire
OLYMPIA, June 16.-Ortis
Hamilton, former adjutant general
of the national guard of Wash
ington, was arrested at the coun-
ty Jail this morning on second
charge of embezzlement, this time
of $40 alleged to have been
stolen March 1, 1908. The COM
plain was sworn to by the clerk
in the attorney generals office.
Hamilton waived examination
in the police court and was bound
over to the superior court In
$4,000 bail for trial.
Hamilton pleaded not guilty,
and the trial set for the Septem-
Der term. No bail has been fur
nished today, because Hamilton's
attorneys fear that as soon as bail
is furnished on these charges the
state will file a forgery complaint.
