LIQUOR QUESTION
KENTUCKY ISSUE
Democrats to Decide on Party
Position at Convention
August S

LOUISVILLE. Ky, Aug. 1.-THE
Kentucky political pot has ceased
boiling for the present, but imme-
diateIy following the State Demo-
cratic Convention, which will be held
in Louisville. August Is, both par
ties will get down to hard work.
The republican leaders are consid-
erably worried over what the demo-
Gratis propose doing on the whisky
question. From reports from the
democratic camp, it is said the lead
ers are split on this question. Some
want to out-Herod Herod by putting
in a plank in the platform for the
county unit bill. which will exceed
that of the republicans in lighting
the interests, while others want to go
back to the old democracy which
stood for local option This they
claim will be strong enough to salts
fly the party and that if they go to
extremes in the matter they Will
merely excite suspicion on the part
of the voters and more will be lost
than gained.
There is quiet in the republican
camp, but they are merely waiting
until d definite stand IS taken by
the democrats before Numbering
their heavy artillery. Judge O'Rear,
conceded to be one of the best ora
tors in the Blue Grass State. is pre-
pairing for "A hard campaign and
will speak in every town of any size
in every one of the tt9 counties.
Prohibition Is Urged
Without waiting until the demo-
Gratis and republicans open the big
battle, many ministers have taken up
the cry for statewide prohibition,
and it is expected that the women
of the state and the Sunday schools
will follow. However, both parties
have about an equal showing to land
the church vote, as it is called. The
republicans may possibly be in the
lead ut present, as the stand taken
by O'Rcar and his followers Is with
out cquivocation, O'Rear has de-
nOunced the liquor interests and the
Third House the lobbyists, which is
being met with hearty favor through
out the state.
There is at present a more harmo-
NOUS feeling among the democrats
than among the republicans, but
when the democrats meet in conven-
ton it is believed that there will be
a split over the liquor question.
August 81 there will be an old
time barbecue at Carlisle in the
Ninth district at which Ollie James
candidate for United States senator
James b. McCreary. Edward j. Me
Dermott Champ Clark and John
Sharp williams will be on hand to
expound the principles Of the dem
ocratic doctrine. This will be first
round OF the big battle.

HUGE HUMAN BONES

PRESCOTT, Arizona, Aug. 12.--
The skeleton of an immense hui
man being was found recently by
Peter Marx on his farm near Juni-
per, northwest of Prescott. The
bones had been partially exposed by
the erosion in the side of a creek
bed. Marx investigated further and
finally assembled most of the skel-
eton, which is that of a man prob
ably twice as large as the average
man of today and several feet taller
The skull is complete ana in the
In size.
The bones have been seen by q
number of Prescott residents. In nc
wise do they seem related to the
remains of the ancient races found
in such abundance in Verde and 9TH
er valleys of this country.

Two Railroad Tracks Being Laid
on First Avenue North to
Help Shipping

Fruit and Produce Warehouse Row,
that portion of the city bounced on
the east by Northern Pacific railroad
tracks, on the west by First avenue
north, known to old timers as Selah
street on the south by Yakima ave-
nue. and on the west by the western
horizon. is having some additions
made to it
The observation-disclosures Railway
and Navigation company commenced
Saturday morning to make extensive
improvements by laying two lines of
track along First avenue north for
distance of about five blocks, while
one of the lines will be extended an
additional block.
At present the track north of Yaki-
ma avenue from the passenger depot
extends to ID street. From a point
near c street a track runs diagonally
thence north on that thoroughfare to
the Yakima Artificial lee an Cold
Storage company. That line is to be
extended north another block to the
warehouse of the Reese-SulliVan com
pany. which is already the possessor
of shipping facilities over the North
ern Pacific by means of a spur from
the east.
These tracks will in no way inter
fere with drayage or driving of any
kind on the street. for they are laid
even with the surface, and are thor
oughly planked so they can be driven
over just the same as though there
were no railroad tracks there.

states must yet ratify the income tax
amendment before it becomes a part
of the federal constitution. To date
80 states have voted favorably. 10
have refused to ratfy, one has rati-
fed only to have the action of the
legislature overturned by the COVER
nor. and five states are yet to take
their first action The classification
Is given in the foregoing table.
Three months ago there was n
bare possibility that the income FAX
amendment might be ratified and be-
come part of the federal constitu-
ton before next winter.
It is not now possible that the in
come tax amendment can be rat.ieb
before next winter. but there IS 4
firm belief in the minds of those sen-
ators who were most instrumental in
passing the income tax resolution
through congress that the necessary
five states will fall into line within
year, even if il be necessary to call
special sessions of the legislatures
in one or two states. The ultimats
adoption of this amendment Is free

Senator BOISE PenrOSe OF Pennsyl-
~ania. the republican floor leader by
reason of being chairman of the
Committee on Finance, probably talks
less than any man who has held a
similar position, although he repre-
sents a state whose diversified in
terests are not exceeded by any state
in the Union. For the first time in
years he gave out an interview the
other day on the subject of water
ways which by reason of the COM
manding position of Senator Penrose,
cannot help but be of great benefit to
the cause of improving the inland
waters of continental United States.
The Pennsylvania senator came out
unequivocalfy in favor of annual riv-
er and harbor bills conservatively pre-
pared to the end that projects hay-
ing the endorsement of the corps of
engineers be completed as speedily as
good business judgment warrants. He
paid a tribute to the work that is
being done by the National Rivers
and Harbors Congress that must be
most flattering to those who are vi
tally interested in the cause.
1.-THE question of an intelligent
treatment of our rivers, harbors and
canals should neither be local nor
sectional" said Senator Penrose. ''1t
is a national question and its solu-
ton should be along national lines
and it should not be made the sub
ject Of politics. In this connection
/ cannot help but pay tribute to the
work of the National Rivers and
Harbors Congress which has been
productive of great good in bringing
about definite results and in educat-
ing the public mind to the develop
ment of inland waterway projects and

work and purpoSeS"

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 49,
(SpeciaD in Washington
for the past week has been seething,

in recent years has there been wit

Oscar w. Underwood, chairman OF

years has had the temerity to dis
close in the face of opposition by the
e9stwhile Nebraska leader. Mr.. I'm
dsrwood not only denounced Bryan's
allegations as false but proved it by
his own friends in the house.
1t was a theme of common remark
the wonderful contrast between the
attitude of the democrats of the
house just now under the leadership
Of Underwood and three years ago
when Bryan was assured of a third
nomination for president by the dem
ocrats. Then. Notwithstanding he
was known to entertain just such
views as he harbors now, there was

take issue with him. The dauntless

of his political adversaries whose
good will he has secured by his uni

Expect necessary Vote

There arc 5 states from which the
necessary five may be picked to
make sure the ratification of the in
come tax amendment. the five which
have not yet acted. and the 10 which
have refused to ratify. Those states
which heretofore refused favorable
action are not barred from changing
their position If the legislature ia
yors reconsideration of the original
vote, and the fact that New York.
which was regarded as dead set
against the income tax, especially as
such a tax will bear more heavily
on that state than any other, has
been forced into line. the friends Of
the tax have hope that other eastern
states may be compelled by the force
of public sentiment to get into line.
For instance. Massachusetts, YER
mont. Connecticut or West Virginia
may be compelled to reverse the
first vote of their legislatures, and
the same influence that would force
them into line probably would COM
mand favorable action from enough
of the uncommitted states 10 make
the necessary 80 states. Wyoming
and Minnesota, it is believed. will
sure vote to ratify; Florida is ex-
pected to do so. and Pennsylvania.
in view Of the action in New York.
Is at least considered doubtful.
But these states will not act until
their legislatures reassemble. and as
some legislatures will not be in ses-
sion next winter, ii may be found ex-
pedient to have an extra session or
two. If the situation becomes such
that one or two more states will
force the adoption Of the amend
ent.

One Governor Vetoed

The income tax cause had a slight
set back because of the action of tho
governor of Arkansas in vetoing the
resolution passed by the state legis-
lature, ratifying the amendment. Ar
kansas made the thirtieth state to
ratify and 80 are necessary to make
this amendment a part of the fed
eral constitution, unless Arizona and
New Mexico come into the Union
prior to final determination of the
question. in which event six more
states must act favorably.
But as Arizona and New Mexico
are both counted as favorable to the
income tax, their admission would he
source of strength rather than
weakness to those who are urging
the adoption of this amendment
The adverse action of the governor
of Arkansas has been offset by the
action OF the New York Legislature.
which early in July voted to ratifv
the income tax amendment. New
York'S action however. leaves the sit
uation eractly as it was before the
governor OF Arkansas exercised his
veto power.
