Pains were taken at the Whi4e House today to make it clear that President Taft did not send .or Messrs Aldrich and Payne on the occasion of last nights con- ference despite the intimation given out in legislative circles that these two leaders had been summoned by Mir. Taft upon word reaching his ears that the corporation tax was about to be dashed to pieces on the rocksl The conference, it was said at the White House had been sought by the legislative leaders who re- ported to their colleagues today that Mr. Taft stood solidly for the tax and would not retreat from his aggressive position re- garding it.
 Washington, July 15 Slight but unmistabable evidences of friction between the president and the conferees on the tariff bill today began to disturb the hitherto pleasant relations eX- isting between the White House and the Capitol. They have be- come apparent in the many calls that have been made upon the chief executive and as a result of the frequent interchange of views. A last effort has been made by the conferees to induce the president to consent to the striking out of the corporation tax amendment without successt The president not only told Sena- tor Aldrich and Chairman Payne that he would not withdraw from his position in favor of the tax but that he was assured of sufficient votes to keep the pro- vision in the bill and to Insure it's adoption> in both houses.
 The president reiterated this position to several of his callers today and is said to have told them that he had been absolute ly confident From the first of the enactment of this tax into law

ACeoesl Csssk Rsal

For some wears News-Champion
has advocated a road up Cement
creek to secure short communication
with the Italian mountain and
Taylor river mines. Rivival of
sctive work ON the Enterprise mine
hsa again broaght the question up,
and the Elk Mountain Pilot Of June
~ has this to say;
We notice from the Aspen Times
that the wagon road leading from
that city to Dorchester is being
shovelled out and teams will be
able to cross the divide into Taylor
park. 1t will he about the first OF
Jelly as it is figured that it will re
quire eight days to finish the work
with the force Of men and teams
employed, This is one indication
of the benefit which would accure to
that section were the Cement creek
road finished as there is no divide
to be crossed in coming down
down Cement TO the railroad at the
mouth of creek
1t is estimated that three thou
sand dollars will complete the road
to Dorchester from the Cement
creek canon through which the road
is already constructed. Another
decided advantage this route has is
in the fact that for the whole dis
tance the road will be free from
danger on account of snowslides
and traffic may be maintained dur
ing the entire year to the Italian
mosntain and TAYLOR park mines
which cannot possibly be done by
any other route.

The Gunnison Coach Horse asso-
citation has exchanged its horse,
Helios, for the imported Percheron
stallion, Doris" No. 5152l (61934)
q splendid 1900 pound horse. They
believe this is a good move, for the
percheron, the heavy draft horse, is
proving a wonderful success here in
the mountains, as is shown by
Bledor's big colts and the way they
sell. When you get above 1000
pounds horse flesh is said TO be
