WILSON TELLS OF REFORMS.
Jersey Governor Foresees Era of Clean Politics and Points Out Reme-
 dies For Present Evils.

Governor Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey was the principal speaker at the banquet of the Denver chamber of commerce. He said in part:
 "The country is to be congratulated upon the fact that the atmosphere of politics has changed within the last few years, for few years ago there was danger that reform would be the source of continued uneasiness, be-. cause it all seemed negative in charac- ter. Its object was to correct, to re- strain, to punish.
 "It is becoming evident that we shall not be satisfied with merely prohibit tive statutes and penalties imposed upon those who do not sufficiently re- gard the public interest in the conduct of their business. ".
 "In the first place, we mean to open up all the processes of our politics. We find that they have consisted too much of private conferences and secret understandings, of the control of leg islation by men who were not legisla- tors, but stood outside and dictated.
 eve have determined to give society command of Its own economic life again by denying to those who con duct the great modern operations of business the privacy and independence that used to belong properly enough to men who used only their own capital and their individual energy in busi- ness.
 "In the third place. we have deter mined to safeguard our national re sources at every point, realizing tba, we have used them in spendthrift fash ion. We insist that our resources in- clude also the lives and health of our workmen, of our women and children.
 "In the fourth place, we hpve made up our minds to cut all privilege ant patronage out of our fiscal legislation particularly out of that part of IL which affects the tariff.
 By the same token we mean to equalize as much as we cun the bur. dens of taxation.
 "In brief, we mean by every pro- gressive measure to throw open the gates of opportunity to mankind"

for the purpose of determining wheth- CT James B. McNamara is the man they knew In that city as J. B. Bryce. Those witnesses were Paul Supper ich, his wife and two daughters, and Harold Burrows. The Stupperichs conducted a hotel at Sausilito, across the bay from San Francisco, where Bryce and his companions stopped for short time while preparing to move the dynamite they bought at Giant to the point where 1t was hidden. It is charged at Sausilito that they tied up the launch Pastime, reprinted 1t and changed the name to Peerless. Bur rows owned the launch. While neither the witnesses nor District Attorney Fredericks will discuss the visit to the jail, the rumors about that institution are that James B. McNamara was rec ognized as the man who passed as Bryce.
 The indictments to be returned will charge murder, according to District Attorney Fredericks. It is believed the McNamaras will be indicted on at least nineteen counts for murder, one for each death resulting directly from the Times explosion, that another count will charge the three prisoners with conspiracy to dynamite the Llewellyn iron works and that the Mo Namaras also will be indicted for con- spiracy to dynamite the Times build ing

 The resolution asked the legislature ito face the responsibility of blocking the legitimate political aspirations of the women of the state" and protest ed against delay.

Prisoner Tells Grand Jury That
 He and MCNdmard Are Guilty.

Ortie McManigal has told the grand jury the story of the dynamiting plots in which he says he participated with James B. McNamara and of which he asserts J. J. McNamara had guilty knowledge. The session of the jury prefaced the return of more indict- ments against the McNamaras. Those indictments probably will be returned this week, and the arraignment of the prisoners will follow. Whether these new indictments are necessitated by defects in the original ones, or for some other reason, is not known.

FIXING THE DATE
OF EXTRA SESSION
Conferences at White House May
Agree Upon April a,
IT SEEMS INEVITABLE NOW
Plan to Sscure Adverse Vote on Reel
procity Agreement in Senate
Did Not Please Presi-
dent Taft.

Washington, Feb. est is conced.
ed that something eve more cata-
clysmic than the presidents suggest.
ed earthquake would be necessary to
stave off the threatened extra session
of congress.
The filibuster in the Lorimer ease
killed practically the last hope of get
ting the r|eciproc.,y agreement
through at the present session.
President Taft summoned into con
ference at the White House half a
dozen leaders on the question of
agreeing on a date for the commenc-
ing of the special session. April 4 is
the tentative date fixed. Chairman
Payne of the ways and means com
mittee and Representatives Dalzell,
Weeks and Gillette talked the matter
owe with the president and were re-
quested to ascertain the sentiment of
the republican members of the next
house On a fit date and report at the
White House as soon as possible.
The president will confer with a
like group of republican leaders of the
senate on a date for the assembling
of the new congress-. The proclama-
ton is practically ready and will be
issued Immediately after adjournment
on Saturday. The president has aban-
doned hope. Even the senate leaders,
who have chung to the hope that the
extra session should be ayerted, have
now thrown up their hands. Senator
Smoot, coming from a conference with
the president, said:
Il regard a special session as inev.
liable now"
An effort was made by Smoot, Root
and others to avert the extra session
and the plan involved the defeat of
the reciprocity agreement. Those SEN
ators visited the White House and
asked the president if it would be
satisfactory to him if he would aban-
done the extra session if a vote was
had on reciprocity, even though that
vote defeated the agreement.
The secret plan was to get enough
senators, democrats as we'll as repub
licans, who are ayerse to reciprocity,
to vote against the agreements and
thus end the matter. The president
informed them CURLY that he would
not be satisfied if reciprocity was
beaten.

when Bailey made his latest demand
for a vote and Cummins answered it.
