resolution condemning the misrule

The resolution in part follows:
I'VE ask for a perfection of primary
election laws for the election or
United States senators; for revision
OF taxation laws so as to make more
just and equitable distribution OF the
burdens of taxation.
THAT the upper peninsula should
paw its share OF the state taxes: that
the taxes should be diminished; that
the number of state office-holders
should be largely reduced; that the
people should be given greater and
more direct voice in public AFFAIRS by
means OF the referendum and recall;
that the campaign receipts and ex-
penditures should be made public be-

Nobody here doubts that major

Nelson, Sutherland, Root and Flint

BALL|NGER WANTS
CABINET TO ACT
Secretary of Interior Will Insist
That Superiors Vindicate or
Condemn Him.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.-Richard
A. Ballinger, secretary of the interior
it is said, has decided to demand OF
his superior and his cabinet assistants
either vindication or condemnation.
Several days ago it was announced
here Sept. "a He left his home in
Seattle yesterday, however, and Will
reach Washington several days in ad-
vance of the cabinet session. His pur-
pose In thus expediting his return is
believed to be to counsel with his i'm
mediate subordinates and to gain their
assistance In preparing for his de-
msnd upon the cabinet for a show
down.
Mr. Ballinger is coming to Washing
ton. his friends here insist, who'll
ly unconscious of any act on his part,
either of commission or of omission,
for which he should be condemned,
and has determined to force his chief
and his official colleagues to be in ef-
feet his judges. If they concur In the
view at present attributed to Mr.. Taft,
that the accused secretary shall be
sustained as an innocent and perse-
cuted man, he will retain his position;
IL they fail to back him up he will re-
sign forwith That this In substance
is Mr.. Ballinger's present position was
learned here today upon authority
hardly to be questioned.
Resignation Unlikely.
Rumors have been constant and
decidedly definite here during the past
few days to the effect that Mr.. Bal
fingers resignation would be one OF
the first developments Of the cabinet
meeting; but his friends, including
his associates in the interior depart
ment, have refused to beliece that he
would retire under fire" and have
pointed to his oft-repeated declaration
to the contrary and to the recent
statement attributed to him. that he
would resign only at the specific re-
quest OF the president. Some OF these,
however, today admitted themselves
and the secretary to be alive to the
fact that the turmoil and uncertainty
