PRESIDENT NOT FOR LORIMER
Prompt Denial of Statement Comes
From Washington.

Washington. March 30-Prompt de-
NAL was made here by friends of
President Taft of the report from
Springfield, H.. that Mr.. Taft had
joined with Senator Aldrich in urging
the election of William Lorimer to the
United States senate.
Edward Hines, Chicago lumber
man, at the Lorimer hearing in Spring
field testified that Senator Aldrich
had told him that Mr.. Taft was anx-
ious that Mr.. Lorimer should be Sc
lected.
II was stated here that a similar re-
port became current last September
and that President Taft then, in a let
ter to the Illinois friend, categorically
denied the statement. In that letter
the president among other things said
that "the rumor, report or statement
that l consciously lent any of the
weight of the administration to the
election of Lorimer is wholly untrue. .
Former Senator Aldrich declined to
discuss the testimony of Mr. Hines.

introduced in the house providing fer
submission of a constitutional amend
ment whereby the speaker of the
house in the Minnesota legislature
shall be elected at large by popular

which he will preside.
The house, by a vote of "a TO rs
killed Representative Knutson's bill

arbitration to which labor disputes
must be submitted before there is any
strike or lockout Organized labor
fought the bill hard and the votes for
it came principally from the country

that the general public suffered more

be done to stop them.
