NORTH DAKOTA POLLING

We're first at the polls in many precincts
This particularly was true in Fargo
Grand Forks and other points in the
eastern end of the state.
Campaign managers for Theodore
Roosevelt said reports received from Bis
marck Mandan and other points in the
western end of the state showed that
Roosevelt had lost nothing as result OF
Senator La Follette's tour.
Instructs Convention Delegates.
The ballot gives each voter an oppor-
tunity to designate his choice for the
ten delegates, who will represent his
state at the party's national convention,
and at the same time permits him to
name the presidential candidate for whom
these candidates shall cast their votes.
There Is also a space for the voter to In
dicate his choice for the states five
presidential electors.
Interest in today's contest is nation
wide. not simply because it marks the
inauguration of new system OF chOOs-
ing presidential candidates, but chiefly
because of the bitter fight between the
La Toilette and Roosevelt cohorts.
This is reflected throughout the state in
the exceptionally heavy registration, and
early reports from all over the state indi-
cate that large vote is being polled.

Democrats Get Measure
Through by Big Majority.
HAD ENOUGH SUPPORTERS
Leader Underwood Said He Could
Block Attempts at Changes.

Republicans Raise Opposition and
Former Speaker Cannon Calls
Legislation Needless.

BY the Overwhelming vote of 249 to Al,
the democratic excise bill was passed by
the House of Representative late this
afternoon No less than eighty republi-
cans voted with the democrats for the
bill
Passage of the democratic excise income
tax, intended to meet the drain on the
Treasury that would be caused by putting
sugar on the free list is confidently ex-
pected before nightfall by the demo-
cratic leaders of the House today A gen.
eral debate of two hours, followed by dis
cussion under the fve-minute rule, was
arranged for expedition of the measure.
Democratic Leader Underwood after cam
vassing the situation, expressed assurance
that he had enough supporters to defeat
al attempts to change the bill in any i'm
port2nt particular.
Representative Campbell of Kansas re-
publican, offered an amendment extending
the tax to the incomes of men retired
from or not engaged in active business
and on those of married women who
owned property or received returns in
their own right Chairman Underwood
promptly objected on the ground that the
amendment would transform the bill from
an excise tax measure to direct income
tax legislation. The chair sustained Mr..
underwood's point of order.
Cannon Twits Underwood.
Former Speaker Cannon twitted Mr.
Underwood with shedding crocodile tears
over the fancied woes of the people"
Mr.. Cannon said the bill was indefensi-
BILE and that it was needless legislation
because the Treasury surplus at the end
of the fiscal year would make unneces-
sary any further taxation.
Democratic applause greeted an an
nouncement by Representative Langley of
Kentucky. republican, that he would sup
port the measure just as it came from
the committee. He opposed an amend
ment proposed by Representative Jack
son of Kansas, progressive republican,
which narrowed the taxing power of the

Mondell Denounces Measure.
Representative Mondell of Wyoming re-
publican. opposed the bill, denouncing it
as IAN imitation income tax measure"
He branded as ''ridiculous' the claim of
the trainers of the bill that it would raise
approximately $6O,OO0.OOO year, declar-
ing that it could not possibly bring in
more than $2OOOO,OOO
Minority Leader Mann and Representa-
tive Hill of Connecticut, republican, both
denounced the bill as being unnecessary.
The former said it was a tax on industry
and thrift alone, while the latter ac-
cused the democrats with having brought
1t forward with ulterior motives and for
political purposes.

One opinion expressed was that the al

impression among the strikers that the
government would be forced to grant
their demands for the reason that social

Ambassador Repudiates Utter

ILL AT COUNTRY HOME
Says He Did Not Compare Britain to
France Before Revolution.
MAY BE INQUIRY INTO MATTER
London Is Deeply Interested and
Some Action by Parliament
Is Not Unlikely.

LONDON, March 19.-Much attention is
being given in official circles to an inter-
view with Ambassador Whitelaw Reid,
printed in the New York Times last Sat
urday, in which the ambassador is quoted
as saying that England today is In a
condition similar to that which prevailed
in France before the revolution. There
is some talk of the matter becoming a
| subject of official inquiry Steps already
have been taken to ascertain II Mr. Reid
was correctly quoted.
AS the result of discussion in the
lobbies of the house Of commons yester-
day Sir Henry ]. DaIziel, member for
hlrkcaidy, gave notice of his intention to
ask Sir Edward Grey. secretary of state
for foreign affairs, whether his attention
had been directed to an interview pub
lished in the public press with the am
bassador from the United States in which
the latter is reported to have expressed
the opinion that the general political con-
d1tlonS In this country al present are the
same as those which prevailed in France
before the revolution and whether he
has in his possession any information
which would enable him to affirm or deny
the authenticity OF the interview in ques-
ton
Ambassador Reid is at present at his
country home at Wrest PARK convaIesc-
ing from an attack of bronchitis, and
could not be reached last night.
Denial Is Made.
William Phillips first secretary of the
embassy, who is in London. called Mr..
Reid up later on the telephone, and re-
ceived the reply that he (the ambassa-
dor) had not authorized the statement at
tributed to him. Phillips called up again
and was empowered by Mr.. Reid to say
| that he authorized a denial of the inter-
view
| The question which has been brought
up by Sir Henry ]. Dalziel is now before
| the speaker of the house Of commons,
who has the authority to reject or accept
| It If he accepts 1t, the question will be
asked formally in the house next Wednes-
day or Thursday.
There we've number of Indignant COM
, ments in the lobbies of the house yester-
day on the part of members who pro-
fessed to believe in the correctness of the
alleged interview, but the prevailing be-
| lief was that Mr.. Reid was too discreet
| q man to make the remarks attributed to
him at such a critical time. 1t was point
| ed out that he has always been careful
as to what he has said about the do
| mestic affairs of Great Britain, and it was
hardly likely that he would err now. But
there was a feeling that an explanation
was forthcoming from Mr.. Reid.
