PREPARE
ELECTION
Nav Be Dark Horses for
President General Of
Society

WASHINGTON, April 15.-With tho
nomination in the continental con-
gress tonight of three avowed candl-
dates for president general about
whom the political storm has ccntered
for weeks, opposition factions of the
daughters Of the American Revolution
have made final preparations for to-
morrow's election, the all-important
event of the year.
The names presented in the presi.
dent general race are Mrs. John Miller
Horton, of Buffalo; Mrs. William Cum
mings Story, of New York, and Mrs.
Charles B. Bryan, of Memphis, Tenn.
The attack by the conservative lead
ers on the conduct of the financial
affairs of the Daughters OF the Amer.
lean Revolution was denounced as un.
founded by Mrs. NJ. II. Scott. the retir-
ing president general. In her report
of the Indebtedness on the contln-
entail hall here, Mrs. Scott declared
these reports had been circulated by
a faction of the society that desired a
change in the administration OF the
society's affairs.
Preparation for nomination tickets
to be voted tomorrow were in progress
throughout the day, and there was
much political discussion, with the
suggestion Of possible dark horses

SALE WAS A
I BIG SUCCESS
Ainck|ey Disposed Of His
Entire Livery Business
at Auction

The sale of A. G. Hincklcy, where.
by he disposed Of his horses, hacks
and entire livery outfit, was held
Tuesday, as per advertisement, and
proved a big success. Every animal,
every strap of harness, every rig and
all the utensils and appurtcnances OF
the place we're sold for cash, the re-
ceipts running over $4,000.
Auctionecr Baird of Aberdeen
whirled the articles through at a
| rate which made a fast record, clean
ing up the entire affair in a tri1c over
four hours. Considering the size OF
the sale, this was vcrys#g0Od work.
The average was very satisfactory all
round.
This closes out onc of the biggest
livery institutions in the state, and
many a patron will miss "Hink's' SER
| vice, until the new conditions adjust
themselves. The business will be
taken over by the other livcrymen in
the city and all demands will undoubt-
eddy be met.
Pie sale was clean in every re-
spect. There was not an unsound an
imn,al in the lot; no defective rigs, and
no by.bidding, all of which proved
Mr.. H%inckley's %truthfulness in his
representations. Mr.. Hinckley has
always believed in a first-class service
and gave 1t, as; far as conditions made
it possible. While he is out Of the
livery business, yet he will not leave,
and will be identified with other in.
terests. However, he wishes to ex.
tend his thanks to all who gave him
their patronage, with the assurance
that he appreciates it.
The many friends Of L. E. Smith,
who for five years has been a faith
full employee of Mr.. Hinckley, and who
had much to do with the management,
will regret. to learn that he will leave
on the list of May for his old home
in DEBORAH, Iowa, where he will en-
gage in his old line OF business, horse
dealing. Mr.. Smith has proven a very
accommodating gentleman in his posi-
ton and has made an excellent rec.
ord for the manner in which he took
care Of the trade. His many friends
over the state will hope for his sue
cess in his new. undertakings.

TARIFF

FOUGHT
Insurance Companies Oppos-
ed to Being Included as
Taxable Organizations
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, April 15.-Demo.
cratic representatives from all sec
lions are being heseiged in Il letter
by personal representatives of insur.
ance companies protesting against
their inclusion as taxable organiza-
tons under the corporation tax pro-
vision of the tariff bill now under con-
sideration by the house democratic
caucus.
Representative. Cordell Hull of Ten.
nessee, author Of the income tax fea'
ture, said his desk was piled with
mail from insurance companies pro-
testing that they were not profit max.
ing organizations. These matters may
be brought up in caucus, but demo
cratic leaders declare the insurance
organizations were given careful con-
sideration when the bill a framed
and opposition will not avail.
With the caucus making slow prog
ress on the tariff bill, the wool schud'
ule will probably be reached tomorrow
when opposition democrats will make
a mOts strenuous fight.
The anti-free raw wool republicans
have organized for the contest, altho
the odds against them are admitted
as overwhelming. They propose to
make a decided struggle to bind the
caucus to a Is per cent duty on raw
wool and substitute for free listing by
committee at the request of the pres
ident. No changes were made in the
committee bill as the result Of today's
discussions
Advocates of the increased duties
on wheat as we'll as those favoring its
free listing are being voted down and
others advocating have met a like
fate. The most stubborn opposition
Of the day came from the southern
members of some Of the cotton rates
when amendments proposed by Webb,
of North Carolina, to increase rates
on finished yarns vas voted down.
