ure developed in the states where an
inheritance tax already is levied that
he brought forward the corporation
tax as the next best beans of wiping
out the treasury deficit. It is authori-
tatively declared that as to the maxi
mum, and minimum the president is
in. favor Off the administrative features
of the senate bill 1t is considered to
be less drastic than the house pro-
vision which has been characterized in
the senate as -retaliatory in it's nature,
whereas the. senate provision is an at
tempt toward reciprocal trade agree
ments.
In carrying out his plan of consult
ing the tariff -conferees, the president
had Representative Fordney, Mich,
as a breakfast guest today At lunch
con he entertained and had a long
talk with. Senator Aldrich. Later in
the day he talked with Senator Bur-
rows. Speaker Cannon was at the
White House during the forenoon and
probably will be a frequent caller until
the tariff conference is ended. Satur-
dav night the president had a long
talk with Chairman Payne of the
house committee on ways and means.
President Taft has been informed by
the conferees that they probably will
be two weeks in their task.

TAFT TAKES A HAND.
President Is HoIdisg Daily Confer
ences on Tariff Bill.

washington. July 12.-President
Taft is holding daily 8 conferences
with the house and senate coGferees
or the tariff bill He has found me
conferees conciliatory and is hopeful
that a satisfactory bill will be pre-
scented for this signature.
The president is not opposed to a
rsduc ton in the rate of the corpora
ton tax If it can be shown that SUf-
fcient revenue will be produced at
percent rather than at 2 per cent,
the president will not object to the
reduction. He favors the tax as tax
and thinks there are advantages re-
speeding it other than the mere pro-
duction OF revenue.
The president in his talks with the
conferees has begun the discussion of
specific rates The time for talk as
to the application of a general prin-
cipIe has passed, in his opinion
President Taft is said to be opposed
to the Clapp amendment to the cor
poration tax, which would make it
a p1y to holding companies. He re-
- as this as double taxation and I'M
just.
inc president is said to feel that
the withdrawal of the corporation IN
favor of the inheritance tax adopted
by the house would be unfair to
number of senators who supported
the corporation tax in preference to
the income measure.
1t was the president who first sug-
gested a graduated inheritance tax

STUBS EXPLAINS.
Appointed Col. Norton as Easy Way
Out of Dilemma

The governor said today in speaking
of the Wilkerson resignation and the
Norton appointment:
1T was not question of my choice
of man for the place at all. The mat
ter was checked up to me like this:
Accept the WiIkerson resignation and
appoint Colonel Norton or no resigna-
ton at all and then wait for an custer
proceedings through the courts.
IT hastily consulted with a. dozen lead
ing Republicans of the city and county
and found Colonel Norton acceptable
and so acted at once. AS to who IA
vored for the place whether Tom, Dick
or Harry made no difference. The
question was: Did I want Wilkerson's
resignation at once and Norton for the
place. Colonel Norton is a fine man, I
have no doubt. According to his rec
concentrations and from men I had
called upon myself but he was not my
choice for the place. He was the price
OF the Wilkerson resignation. Still
believe that the county got as good
man as could have been named

Secretary of the Interior Ballinger
has been saying some very plain things
about the Roosevelt administration
during his present trip in the west. The
secretary left some time ago to visit
sections where there is concern about
the administration of various laws
through the interior department The
reclamation service especially has been
under the probe since Mr. Ballinger
came into office, and some weeks ago
the department reversed a very i'm
portant policy of the Garfield regime
with reference to irrigation works. The
hold lands which are to be Irrigated,
because 1t changed their status and
added much to the difficulties of GET
ting projects carried out early.
Secretary Garfield had ruled that
where there was not available cash to
complete irrigation works the settlers
who were waiting for water might fur
nish money and labor, complete the
works, and have compensation allowed
to them in the way of reduced water
rentals. Mr.. Bailinger, on the advice
of Attorney General Wickersham. re-
versed this and stopped the proceeding.
In the North Platte valley of Ne
braska was a big half finished irriga-
ton project on which the people had
made arrangements to cooperate I'M
der the Garfield plan with the govern
ment. When cooperation was estop-
ped by Ballinger a huge outcry was
raised, and Mr. Ballinger went out to
see the settlers and explain his posi-
ton to them. He gave them the word
with the bark on" He told them
among other things that not a half
dozen reputable and self-respecting
lawyers could be found in the country
who would say that the Garfield plan
was within the law.
The people of the irrigated country
are much worried about the outlook for
more radical innovations. They fear
that the federal irrigation programme
is not going to be pressed with so much
vigOr under the new administration.
ton that big private Irrigation specu-
latfons are going to be more profitable
in future, and that they will not find
it so difficult as in the past to get at
the water necessary for carrying out
their plans. This doesn't look good to
the people, who believe they would get
water on better and more secure terms
from the government than from pri-
vate corporations.
