CHAMP CLARK PROPHESIES.
Republicans To Be Wiped Off the
Map'-Mr. Roosevelt's s Return.

Washington, Jan. 15.-Champ Clark the
minority leader of the House, returned to
the capital to-day after ten days of
speechmaking in Missouri and the Middle
West He gave out roseate cheering pre-
dictions Of a sweeping Democratic vic
tory in the Congressional elections next
fall and a Democratic House of Representa-
tives. Mr.. Clark said he found a thriving
spirit of Democracy in Ohio and Missouri
and other places where he visited. IN
Missouri he predicted the Republicans
would be wiped off the map" He de-
clared that dissatisfaction with Republican
rule was never SO widespread as now, and
that the next House of Representatives
would be Democratic ''as sure as anything
in the world
Mr.. Clark brought with him from Mis-
souri, an interesting story which he heard
at Kansas city of the departure of a GER
tain man from the latter place a few days
ago for Africa, representing practically all
the commercial bodies of the West and
Middle West, to invite Mr.. Roosevelt to
land at San Francisco on his return to
the United States and cross the continent
from West 10 East.
Such a procession across the country
would be the greatest show seen on this
earth since the morning stars first sang
together" said Mr.. Clark
He recalled that President Grant had
done much the same thing, and said that
If Grant had landed at San Francisco at
a more opportune time no power could
have prevented his nomination for third
term,

M1NN'S LICENSE PL1N
Federal Registration Instead of
Incorporation.
IRON The Tribune Bureau.

Washington, Jan. 15.-The fact that the
Presidents federal incorporation plan as
outlined in his message does not meet with
great favor in the House has Influenced
Representative Mann, of Illinois, chairman
of the Committee on Interstate and For
eign Commerce, to introduce measure
which he believes will prove an acceptable
substitute
This measure provides for federal regis
tration of corporations. 1t gives all cor
porationS the privilege of making applica-
ton TO the Bureau of Corporations for reg
istration. When a corporation voluntarily
makes such application the Commits
sioner of Corporations will be required to
investigate its affairs. and to decide wheth-
er it is doing a legitimate interstate COM
merce business and is entirely solvent. On
ascertaining these facts certificate will
be issued to the corporation stating that 1t
is under federal supervision. From time to
time thereafter the corporation will be in
vestigated and the certificate renewed.
Mr.. Mann believes that all corporations
doing a legitimate business will welcome
the oportunity TO obtain the approval of
the government, such approval will
greatly enhance the value OF the securities
issued by them. He also says that such a
measure would not interfere in any way
with the control exercised by the states
over corporations within their borders. His
great objection TO the Presidents plan is
that under It once a corporation has d
federal charter. it is beyond the control of
the states. OF course that very feature is
one of the chief ends sought by the Presi-
dent and his advisers.

BACK TO COMMITTEE.
House Refers Resolution to
Change Inauguration Day.
From The Tribune Bureau.

Washington, Jan. 15.-The Henry resolu-
ton, providing for a later inauguration
date was referred back 10 the judiciary
Committee by the House to-day for fur
ther consideration. The resolution will be
amended 10 meet the objections urged
against ii fin it's present form, and will
again be reported 10 the House.
The resolution was taken up on the call
for unfinished business. Mr.. Henry en-
deavored to obtain unanimous consent to
make a speech, but Representative Gaines,
of West Virginia, insisted that a vote on
the previous question be taken. This was
defeated. Both Mr. Gaines and Mr.. Butler,
of Pennsylvania, endeavored to obtain rec
ognition for the purpose of offering mo-
tion TO recommit the resolution, and Rep
resentative Henry created some confusion
by demanding that he be recognized. The
Speaker finally recognized Mr.. Butler. who
yielded 10 Mr.. Gaines, ard on a yea and
nay vote the resolution recommitted.
The House also paid tribute to Senator
Shoup. Of Idaho, whose statue will be un-
veiled in Statuary Hall on Monday. A let
ter was read from the Governor of Idaho,
ana Representative Hamer, of that state,
made an address.

STATEHOOD NEAR
admission of 4rizona and NcsC
Merico Expected.
IFrom The Trihune Bureau.


Washington, Jan. 15.-The advocates Of
the admission as separate states of Arizona
and New Mexico, who have been sounding
sentiment in the Senate, believe their claims
will be recognized at the present session of
Congress. Senator Beveridge chairman of
the Committee on Territories, Is more con-
ciliatory than he was last winter, and there
are some indications that he will interpose
no objectionsto the consideration of a sepa
rate statehood bill this year.
The statehood bills are now on the House
calendar backed by a favorable report.
and Representative Hamilton. chairman of
the Committee on Territories is making
every possible effort to have them taken up
for action at an early date. There is a
decisive majority for statehood in the
House. and it is proba bic that the measure
will beNpassed In ten days or two weeks.
Mr.. Beveridge has announced that his
committee will not take up the statehood
question until necessary legislation for the
government of Alaska is formulated The
committee looks with favor on Mr. Tafts
plan providing fer the appointment by the
President of Governor and an executive
council for Alaska. 1t is expectedpthat
some of the Democrats will insist that the
territorial legislature shall be elected. In
his annual message Mr.. Taft strongly dep
recated legislation providing for the cleo
ton of a Legislature He said that the
lack of permanent residence by a large part
of the population and the small number
who either permanently or temporarily live
In Alaska as compared with its vast cx-
panse and the variety of interests that have
to be subserved, made 1t altogether unwise
to provide for a popular election of leg
islatve body.
1t is expected. also, that the Committee
on Territories will follow the Presidents
suggestions in drafting the enabling acts
for Arizona and New Mexico Mr.. Taft
advised that provision be made for submit
ting the constitutions of the proposed new
states to the people for approval at an cleo
tion in which the sole issue shall be the
merits of the constitution. To this end the
enabling acts will provide that no election
of state officers shall be held until the con-
stitution has been approved.
President Taft had an extended confer
ence to-day with Senator's Beveridge, Kean
and Nelson relative to separate statehood
for New Mexico and Arizona.
