TAFT Plan OPPOSED.
Strong Sentiment IN House

IFrom The Tribune Bureau.

Inc IElOuHe bureau
Washington Jan. 14-President Taft
and his advisers appear to have her
culean task ahead of them in obtaining
general approval in the House of the
federal Incorporation plan. Strong op-
position TO that legislation is rapidly de-
veioping, and there are many members
who are outspoken in the opinion that it
should not be enacted into law
Few of these Representatives, how
ever. are prepared to speak for publica-
tion on the question. They say that the
Presidents bill has not yet come before
Congress. that frequent conferences on
the measure are still being held at the
White House, and that its most obiec-
tionable features in their eyes may be
eliminated before il is completed
There are many who oppose the gem
eral scheme, and probably VIII not be
converted under any circumstances.
Among these is Representative Mann
of Illinois. who believes that such a plan
is the beginning of the end of state GOV
ernment. 1t is known, too. that not a
single member of the Judiciary Corn
mittee of the House looks with favor n,
the plan as IL has been thus far outlined
by the President. The Democrats ,ra
almost unanimously opposed TO II. and
its friends acknowledge that the Prss,-
dents powers OF persuasion will he

favorable report from the Judiciarv

The Judge had always looked upon
Miss Staley as ~ machine. Every.
morning she took his dictation for
an hour and later she brought the
letters to be signed. That was the

She was feeding the once cat.
That forlorn feline. ~ far back a.

q thin-bodied reproach to the com.

she lived by catching rats. But such
living was evidently precarious, for

Reverence for women had been in.
stilled into the Judge by his mother,
but he had found few who had 1usti.

the depths Of Miss staley's nature.
He had to 60 about it slowly, for she
permitted no cessation of their strict

which he dared to discuss with her in.

the one-time starving took her

perience at first hand in their study
of forestry forty students of the Bilt-

four members of the faculty are in
camp near Cummer-Diggins lumber
camp. The class is made up of young
men from all parts of the United
States and one Japanese. October 1
the class will 60 to Germany to study
for six months in the Black Forest.
Here the class will study forestry,
botany, woods lore and all branches
of the lumber business from the cut
ting of the trees to the manufacture
of the lumber into the finished prod
uct, the mills in this city furnishing
basis for some of the studying.
A large per centage of the students
are from families who are engaged in
the lumber business, the desire being
thoroughly to acquaint the future
heads of large enterprises with the
business from the ground up.
The class is living real lumber

with camp of $50 jacks. Their
place of recitation is rural school
