THE TAX IN THE HOUSE.
Members Probably VII Haze No
Opportunity to Tote on 1t.
From The Tr,bun. 1.rA,ul


Washington July I2.--The incpient revolt against
the corporation tax. which began in the House
with the announced opposition Of the New York
delegation. has been practically crushed by the
preponderance Of opinion in favor Of that measure
and manifest disposition the part OF the
majority to follow tho wishes Of the President
Despite the apparent hopelessness Of attempting
to interfere with the legislative programme mapped
out by the leaders and approved by the President
those who oppose the tax continue to rnurrnlir
but their complaints have no note of hope
The New Workers, particularly Representatives
Parsons and Bennett have spent the greater part
of the last three days in conference with other
Eastern Republicans who against the tax The
New Engianders are almost a unit in their opposi-
ton TO IT,. Representatives Mccall and Giett of
Massachusetts,. have announced their objections
and there is little doubt that If the question is
submitted TO an open in the House they will
be found with the minority against il. The New
York Democrats are also opposed to the amend
ment and would probably vote their convictions.
The same is true OF the New Jersey delegation
and that of Connecticut, under the leadership Of
Representative E J. Hill. majority of the Re-
pubicans, however, favor the tax including those
from the Middle Western States who vii! not fol-
low the lead Of several of their Senators and make
q hopeless fight for the income tax amendment.
The Democrats will have to vote for the amend
ment. much they dislike to a
corporations emanating from Republican source.
They believe that the amendment is likely TO prove
popular, and on TINS account they earnestly desire
that some complication shall cause the abandon
ment OF it
There is little likelihood that the members of
the House will have opportunity vote on the
corporation tax proposition. The programme OF the
leaders contempates submitting the complete con-
ference report 10 the House. allowing just enough
debate TO permit members to explain for the benefit
of their constituents why they for the bill.
and then by means of rule adopting the report
with two votes, one on the previous question
and one on the entire bill.

FLOODING OF STREETS
 MUST STOP IMMEDIATELY
Street Supervisor Simkins Lays Down the Law or the Matter.

Street Supervisor Simkins announces that there is a practice common among Mesa people to allow their irrigation water to go on down the ditch at such times as there is no immediate need for irrigation and this results in flooding the streets much to the dam age of the roads and tine temper of pedestrians and all persons who must pass. There is an ordinance against street flooding which makes the con sequences plain and it is to these Street Supervisor Simkins will point.
 The law as laid down by ordinance is as follows, and the penalty is a fine of not less than 8 nor more than $500:
 Sec. 1S-The owner, lesee or occu- pant of any premises irrigating the same, failing. refusing or neglecting prior to such irrigation to properly provide by suitable borders or drains or both against the escape of such water for irrigation from such prem ises upon any street, alley. walk or public place, shall be guilty of a mis- demeanor."
