that the management Will have no
difficulty in gaining the support and
cooperation of those prominent In

this epoch-making series OF events the
greatest in the history OF the Inter

Practically all the cattle associa'
tons reported that they had set aside
increased sums to be naid out in spo-
cial prizes at the coming show.
The Red PolleG Cattle were given
q senior and junior classification, the
same as the other breeds.
In connection with the sheep class
ification. II was decided TO place all
breeds on the same footing, giving
them a uniform classification for
breeding sheep covering an amount OF
$50. and to give those breeds whose
associations offer $3.50 or more In
specials" an additional $75. The
classification for fat sheep Is to re-
main the same as IL was in the past.

WILL DRAW UP
INCOME TAX BILL
Senators to Base Document on Bailey
Measure-It Will Raise About
$4,000, 900 Annually.

WASHINGTON May 1s.--As the re-
suit OF conference held last night be-
tween Senators Borah, OF Idaho. and
Cummins. OF Iowa. representing the
Republican insurgents In the senate,
aud Senator Bailey. the leading DEM
ocratic advocate or an income tax. 1t
Is probable that a substitute bill Will
be introduced which will be agreeable
TO both sides. and which will have the
guarantee OF practically the solid Dem
ocratic support as we'll as that OF the
insurgent Republicans.
The new measure will be mainly
based on the Bailey bill. and will pro-
vide for raising about S36.000.O00 an
nually from the income tax. Ii Will
impose a uniform tax OF 2 per cent
in excess above $4,000 on all incomes,
whether OF individuals or corpora
tons. The tax from corporations Ii
10 be collected directly. with a pro-
vision for renting To stockholders.
In their individual capacities such
share OF their income tax as comes
from corporations that have already
paid the tax.
For time. the Republicans were
insiStent In their demands that the
tax be made a graduated one. as In
the Cummins bill. Some OF the Dem
ocratic senators. however. have de-
clared that they would not vote for q
graduated tax. and upon this situation
being explained. IL was agreed to make
this concession. in order to get their
votes.
Senator Borah believes that in its
new shape. the income tax bill will be
passed by the senate. IL that prom
Use holds good. IL will require only 10
Republican votes to. put the measure
through.
Ii ID declared with apparent author
ity that President Taft Is not support
ing the idea OF an income tax amend
ment to the tariff bill. He prefers to
wait and see whether enough rev.
enues will be obtained from the var
ious schedules OF the bill, and II they
do not prove TO be sufficient TO meet
the demands OF the government, he
would turn TO the income tax as q
revenue producer in separate bill
TO be introducedSlater.
