RECLAMATION WORK URGED
Montanans Are Apprehensive That
Government May Give Up
Projects.

Washington, June 4-Apprehensive
that government reclamation work
might be withdrawn from Montana, a
delegation of citizens of that state
called upon Secretary Lane to urge
him to continue the projects.
At a recent conference representa-.
lions were made to Secretary Lane
that the lands to be irrigated in Mon
tana were not valuable enough to war.
rant the amounts the water users will
have to pay. Secretary Lane intimat.
ed therefore that it might be good
policy for the government to forego
the projects.
The probability is. however. that
work on the four projects in Montana
will be carried on as planned.
The delegation was headed by Gov.
ernor Stewart, former Governor Nor.
ris. Senators Walsh and Myers and
Representative John NJ. Evans.

JOHNSON GETS PRISON TERN
PUGILlsT FINED 81 900 AND GIVEN
YEAR IN JAIL.
Convicted Of Violation of the Mann
White Slave Aet-Given Two
Weeks Liberty.

Chicago, June Sack johnson.
champion heavyweight fighter of the
world. has been sentenced to one year
and one day in the state petitentiary
at Joliet and fined $1,000 for violation
of the Mann white slave act.
Sentence was pronounced on John.
son after Federal Judge Carpenter had
denied a motion for a new trial, made
by counsel for the negro. johnson oh.
tanned two weeks time In which to
prepare a writ Of error and the bond
for 100000 on which he has been at
liberty since his conviction. was al
lowed to stand.
Half dozen deputy United States
marshals, who had grouped themselves
about johnson in anticipation of re-
sistance when the prison sentence was
given, left the room when Judge Car.
penter announced that the fighter
could continue temporarily at liberty.
The sentence to the state peniten.
tiary is the result Of a recent order
from Washington that all persons con.
victed in the federal court in this dis.
trict should be sent to the state pris.
on. owing to the crowded condition
of the federal penitentiary at Leaven.
worth, Kansas.
johnson left the court room. declar
ing that he would not give up his
fight for liberty and that if the writ
Of error were denied he would make
further appeals.
The arguments for a new trail came
up as a surprise. The case had not
been set previously. and the proceed.
ings began with the unexpected ap
pearance in the court room of John
son and his lawyer.
1T has been hard to determine
what punishment should he melted out
in this CASE" said Judge Carpenter
I'VE have had many cases where viola
tions of the Mann act have been pun.
ished with fine only. We have had
other cases whore defendants have
been sentenced to one or two yeare
in the penitentiary.
"The circumstances In this case
have been aggravating. The life OF
the defendant, by his own admission
has not been a moral one. The defen
dant is one Of the best known men Of
his race and his example has beer
far-reaching.
The sentence shall! he that the dc
PENDANT shall be confined year and &
day in the Joliet penitentiary and tina;
he shall be fined $1,000.
The court denied request Of coun
sci for Johnson that the negro be al
lowed to serve the term in the city
Bridewell instead OF the States pris

IS FOUND UNCONSTITUTIONAL
DEFECT DISCOVERED IN INCOME
TAX LAW PROVISION.
Provision Taxing Incomes from Jan,
1, 1918, Would lnvaidate the
New Law.

Washington, June 5.-The senate Fl.
nance subcommittee. which has been
wrestling with the agricultural sched-
ules and which decided upon the free
listing of live stock and wheat, is re-
ported to be undecided as yet on it's
report regarding oats and buckwheat
Apparently there still is some dis
position to recommend that duty be
retained on both. The subcommittee
of six cents bushel.
Before the senate acts on the I'm.
derwood tariff bill the income tax Sec
ton will be amended to remedy de-
feet which, it is discovered, would
make the measure unconstitutional.
When the trainers of the income tax
provision fixed January, 1918. as the
date from which to compute incomes
for taxation they Overlooked the fact
that the constitutional amendment au.
thorizing an income tax was not pro,
claimed as ratified until Feb. 25, 1913.
This fact was brought to the atten-
ton of the senate finance sub-commit.
tee, which has the income tax under
consideration and an amendment prob.
ably will be drafted at once.
Aside from the constitutional de.
feet, arguments have been presented
in favor Of making the taxable income
accrue for the first year from July l
or later. AS far as the constitutional
Limitation is concerned. it would be
legal to compute incomes for 1913 from
March 1.
Senator Williams subcommittee
still has under advisement the scores
of protests filed by officials Of mutual
life insurance companies against their
inclusion under provisions of the in.
come tax law~and the committee still
is considering an amendment which
would give such mutual concerns ex.
emption if they are able to prove, aft.
er the tax has been assessed, that
they are not conducted for profit and
that all of their surplus earnings are
participated in by their policy holders
Action by the subcommittee, to be
ratified by the finance committee in
putting live stock and grains on the
free list, retaining on the free list also
meats, -four and oatmeal. it is expect
ed, will arouse protests from farmers
and farm organizations, but the com
mittee will hold to this solution of the
problem presented in the Underwood
bill Of equalizing agricultural raw ma
terials and the products. One vigor
GUS protest came from the corn belt
of Iowa before the action was an
nounced.
