FORECAST
Of Events For The Coming
Week

washington, ID. c., Dec. 13-The
first steps looking to reorganization
of the Republican party and restor-
alton of party harmony will be taken
Tuesday, when the Republican ma
tional committee will meet in Wash
ington pursuant to the call issued by
Chairman Hilles last October. The
committee meeting is expected to ar
range for a national convention to re-
wise the rules of the party. The prin-
cipal changes demanded are in the
basis of representation from the
Southern States at national conven-
tions and in the method of electing
delegates from States at national con-
ventions and in the method of elect
ing delegates from States that have
primary laws covering that subject.
The national convention probably will
be called for the spring or early sum-
mer of next year. Nothing has been
decided as to convention city. Gin
cinnati, Detroit, Chicago, Indianapolis,
Philadelphia and Washington will
put in applications for the conven-
ton.
Everything in and around the
White House has been put in the best
possible order in readiness for the
opening of the first social season
under the Wilson administration. The
initial event will be the Cabinet din
ner Thursday evening and the seas
on will close with army and navy re-
ception on Thursday, February 15.
Secretary Houston will conduct a
public hearing at the Office of the De-
partment of Agriculture Thursday in
order that all persons interested in
! the importation Of the common, or
Irish potato from Canada and Europe
may be heard concerning the estab-
lishment of a quarantine, to be Ell
fective January l, 1914, forbidding
the importation of potatoes from
these foreign countries. The object
of the proposed quarantine is to pre-
vent the introduction into the United
States of the powdery scab and
other diseases which might seriously
affect the potato production of the
United States.
All of the labor unions of Colorado
have been invited to send delegates
to a convention to be held in Denver
Tuesday to consider the question o.
calling statewide sympathetic strike
in support of the United Mine work
ers of America, now on strike in thu
Colorado coal fields.
Friday is the day set for the exc
cution of Harry Spencer, whose ar
rest in Chicago and subsequent con
fession of numerous murders, rob
berries and other crimes startled thu
country some months ago. Spence
is to be executed at Wheaton, Ill
near which place he robbed and mur
dered Mrs. Mildred Allison Rexroat
q "tango" teacher, on September 2
last, fore which crime he was trie'
!. and convicted.
The United States has undertaken
to aid the Dominican Republic Il
holding free and fair election Nor
day to choose a new constituent as
sembly. American Minister Sulliva
has notified the leaders of the severa
political factions of the intention @
the United States Government to sc
that the islanders have every oppol
tunity of expressing their politics
preferences without interference. Th
