ROOT SPEAKS FOR
CORPORATION TAX
Senator Wishes to Beat Income
Tax Provision, Thinking
Taft's Plan Better

WASHINGTON, July 1.-The senate
came within one today OF agreeing
to vote next Tuesday on the entire in
come tax amendment to the taariff bill,
including the corporation tax substi-
tute The compact was prevented by
Bulkely. His opposition aroused no
little feeling
Root, champion OF the administration
and one of the authors of the corpora
ton tax amendment, said the first
draft OF it was made by the attorney
general on request of the presidents
This draft, in the handwriting of the
attorney general and interlined by the
president himself was sent to the
ways and means committee. That COM
mittee preferred the inheritance taY,
but where the senate finance committee
had stricken 1t out the corporation tax
amendment had been slightly amended
and brought forth again,
Gentlemen may say am for a cor
poration tax to beat the income tax
said Root Il am for the corporation
tax because think it is better policy,
better patriotism and higher wisdom
than the general income tax at this
time and under these circumstances.
wish to beat the income tax provisions.
because I taink it is wise:
Flint. who has charge of the tariff
bill IN the absence of Aldrich, asked
for unanimous consent to vote on the
Bailey Cummins income tax amend
ment at - O'Clock Tuesday, with the
understa nding that the senate should
remain in session until all these ques-
tions should be disposed of.
Just as. the vice president was stat
ing the question for about the third
time Bulkely doomed: up and proceeded
to say that he could not agree that the
vote should be taken at the time
specified.
There were today several speeches
for and against the measure, Borah
leading off in favor of the income tax,
but opposed to the corporation tax.
and Root following on the other side
and advocating the corporation tax
but opposing the income tax. Other
speakers of the day were Clapp and
owen favo9ng income tax, with in
cidental remarks by Flint and. others.

OSHEA TOPUT
ANTI GAMBLING
LAW TO TEST
COursing Meeting to Be Held at
lngIeside Park Monday De-
spite State Statute
Promoter Says He Can Not Pre-
vent Boys Making Bets
Among Themselves

The followers OF racing and other
sports. which had been given the solar
plexus blow as result of the walker
Otis nti-betting law passed by. the last
session OF the legislature. will be
pleased to learn that the first real test
case viii be made by Jerry o'Shea, pop
ularly known as the mayor of the Po-
trere. who is looked on by Ieashmen as
the leader of their sport: He has con-
cluded TO go 70 the bat and try to knock
out q home run. He has arranged to
. hold a coursing meeting for next Nom
day at Ingleside park.
OfShea is not shouting that he Is go
ing TO defy the law, but simply says
that. the boys want coursing and he
proposes TO give them a whirl at their
psstime.
However. it is a well known fact that
coursing meetings in this city would be
an expensive sport without the betting
feature. and the promoter would have
20 dig deep and often TO keep it going
O'Shea has the reputation of being toe
shreyd a businessman TO undertake
anything of that kind.
O'Shea does not deny that there will
be betting He says that he can not
stop the boys from making a few bets
among themselves. However; from re-
cent moves on the part of persons
closely connected with racing and
coursing 1t was expected that a test
was 10 be made soon and Monday is
TO be the day.
The boys who have greyhounds,'
said O'Shea yesterday. have been after
wanting 10 know when / was going TO

that ] would start the sport We will
hold stake for Monday and the draw

ing.
i don't know anything about the
betting. Probably some of the boys
might want TO make q few bets among
themselves You know that the betting
feature is what pays expenses. Any
how, we viii have some conrsing and

MALTBIE runs H|[DRETH
HORSE To A HEAD AND
WINS PURSE

SHEEPSHEAD BAY TRACK, July 1.
II pays race goers to visit the Califor-
MIA racetracks in the winter. At least
many persons who had made the last
trip thought so at the Sheepshead Bay
track today when they saw Maltbie win
the mile and furlong purse on the
turf course. These migrating follow
ers of the turf had witnessed Maltbie
beat some of the best horses on the Pa
cifc coast very easily and run King
James TO a head. On the strength of
that performance they backed him to
win the fifth race and gave great
whoops Of JOY when he won in romping
style by a length.
Sam Hildreth. the owner of Mont
gomery, was standing in the paddock
when a friend accosted him and said:
do you like Montgomery, Sam"
YES, he's pretty good, but he hasn't
a chance to beat Maltbie, If the latter
is good" was the reply.
Hildreth's estimate of Maltbie, s quail
ity was fulfilled by the result of the
race. Maltbie dashed to the front on
the first turn, made all the running un-
der a stout pull and won in a slow can
ter by a length.

REAL FUN FOR HALLOWEEN
oldtime Rowdyism Should Be supersed-
 ed by Other Amusements

Every boy feels that he has spe- cial right on Hallowe Zen night to go out and have some fun. Somehow or other the fun is very apt to be at the expense of other people. It may seem very amusing to. take gates off their hinges and hide them; but this is cruel fun, for it makes work for the older people who have to put them back again.
 Ringing doorbells is another standing joke that may turn out badly. Some boys once stood board up against a front door, rang the bell and ran over across the street to see what would happen. A woman came to the door with lighted lamp in her hand, and the board fell against her, smashing the lamp and setting her on fire, so that she was terribly burned.
 There are plenty of ways of having fun without injuring anybody, and q good plan is to get up a Hallowe Zen masquerade party. Let every boy hunt up the queerest old clothes he can find and dress in them, so that inc others will not know him. If he has not a mask he can rub his face with burnt cork, or paint himself to look like an Indian, doing anything that will make it hard for the other boys to recognize him.--The Delineator for October.

Annual House Cleaning at
 White House Wears Finish

from the Philippines for this especially. So much for the presidents s good will for the little brown men.
 The White House has been given a new coat of paint during the summer prior to which several coats of the old paint were carefully removed. The building has never presented cleaner and more inviting appearance than at present. Inside, the green room has been redecorated, the furniture reup- holstered and the woodwork repainted. All the other parlors have been gone over carefully and put in first class condition for the return of the presiden- tial family, but l6 radical changes have been made in either furniture or decoration.
 As a whole, however, the interior will present most attractive appearance, and this will last well through the SO cial season, which will begin early in the winter. Mrs. Taft, while she will take things more philosophically than she did last season, has invited her sis. ter to help her in receiving, and plans are under way to make the Taft's first winter in the White House memorable socially. This will be the easier be- cause of Mrs. Taft $ fondness \,r social affairs, and her finely developed music al and artistic. tastes.

WASHINGTON, October 1s.-Con. gress sets apart thousands cf dollars a year for maintenance and repairs at the White House. The latter cost quite as much as the former, due to the fact that the house is visited yearly by great throngs of people, who leave behind them trails of wear and tear the de- mands prompt attention. The annual house cleaning and clearing always takes place while the president and his family are absent for the summer, and this work for the current season is now drawing rapidly to close. It is ex- pected that the house and grounds and the enlarged executive offices will be in readiness for occupancy by the time Mrs. Taft returns to Washington from Beverly, about the middle of the pres ent month. Certainly everything will be in frst-class condition by the time the president returns, month later. The president has approved a plan to finish the interior of his private office in the enlarged executive building with wood grown in the Philippines. The parquet flooring of the office will be of Tucson Calao wood, dark green in color, which grows abundantly in the islands. The furniture in the president s office will be covered with the skin of the carabao, or Philippine buffalo, brought

the United States, within the next few years.
 "Globe has many good properties. Aside from the Old Dominion, there are, many new companies whose properties have been shown to have large ore de- posits. The millions of tons of orc which will be extracted from the Globe mines will furnish employment for both skilled and unskilled labor for the next decade, probably for a longer period and the progressive spirit which is manifest here will make the Globe district live one.
 While N. l.. Amster refers to MT. Bancroft as "Major general" his of Nficial rank is that of brigadier general. He was in the service as lieutenant dur ing the Spanish American war, resign. ing his command some time ago.
 Later he held the position of district attorney of Middlesex county, Massa- chusetts, county which is practically part of Boston. His services with the state government of Massachusetts lresulted in his being given the rank of brigadier general

TAFT RUSTICAT|N ING
 AT RANCH IF BROTHER
For Few Days Chief Execu- tive Will Do Exactly
 as He Pleases

GREGORY, Texas, october ls.-Taft arrived here tonight to pass four days on the ranch of Charles P. Taft, his brother.
 Reports as to the size of the ranch vary from 100000 to 100000 acres. In either event, it approaches the propor- tions of a prineipality, and during his time here the president will be secluded from givers of banquets and to oner, ous duties of constant speech
 The president said he now intended, for once on the trip, to do as he pleas ed. This means he will play golf ev- cry morning, ride in the afternoon and may go duck hunting
 His stay at the ranch will be the first real rest of the president, for even the Yosemite valley, far from the beaten paths, had its ironclad schedule of stage rides and early hours of rising.
