NEGRO VISITS CAPITAL TO Sc.
CURE FEDERAL POSITION.
Editor From Charlotte Would Ike Very
Much to Get Good Job.


Washington, May 22.-Dr. G. G. Gle
ment, negro editor of the Star of Zion,
of Charlotte, arrived in Washington
today in regard to securing appoint
ment as register of the treasury, an
office for which he has been a candi-
date for some time. Clement had be-
lieved he was on the road to success
until a few days ago when it was
learned that A. e. Patterson, a negro
of Muskogee, Okla, was looming up
strong for the job. The position OF
register of the treasury has gone to
a negro for many years, and there
have been a number Of candidates In
the field for over six months.
Fearing that Patterson would Sc
cure the position, some of Clements
friends suggested chat he get the en-
dorsement of the North Carolina del
egation for appointment as minister
to Liberia. but Frank Williston, ne
gro, of Salisbury, has already been en-
dorsed for this position by Senator
Overman. Clement does not care
much about going to Liberia anyway.
The candidacy of Patterson is pro-
baby not as serious as might be sup
posed as charges have already been
brought against him that he has been
lifelong republican, up until a very
short time ago, when he switched to
the democratic side.

floor.
Discussion of the tariff on raw ivory
proposed i'm the Underwood bill before
the johnson subcommittee disclosed
an unusual situation. Representatives
of cotton exporters in protesting
against the proposed 20 per cent duty
on tusks, declared it would break up
their barter trade in cotton with Afri-
can tusk dealers. For years they
have been shipping thousands of dol
lars worth Of cotton to the African
traders and bringing back In payment
therefor ivory tusks Whic hthey in
turn sold to plano manufacturers.
1t was claimed that with a duty on
ivory, Italian cotton traders would
get the business.

c TAX TO STAND.

Finance Committee Not Alarmed
About Threats From Insurance
Companies and Other Interests
simmons and Yice-President Confer.
washington, (Special.)-No amend
ment to the income tax section of the
Underwood tariff bill is likely to be
proposed by the senate finance COM
mittee or Democratic caucus accord
ing to leaders considering that part
of the bill.
Senators Williams, Shively and
Gore have the income tax in hand.
Though their committee room is piled
high with protests and suggestions
from many sources, the measure is
believed to have been well handled and
the objections made to it in it's origi-
nal form the thought to have been
sufficiently met in amendments before
the bill passed the house.
Among the loudest protests coming
now are those from mutual insurance
companies conducted for profit, but the
house amended the original bill as re-
lating to insurance companies and in
surance policies and the senators on
the finance committee believe it is
sound. Complaints from railroads and
other holding companies that the law
will tax them twice on dividend-paid
are reported to have been held IN
sound by members of the committee.
Senator Penrose failed today to get
up his resolution providing for publ
cation of the list of tariff questions to
manufacturers proposed by Senator
La Toilette, the senate going into eX-
ecutive session before the tariff was
reached. Early in the day the finance
committee majority framed an amend
ment t othe resolution proposing a
longer list of questions, in which
some of Senator La Follette's queries
were included. The resolution will
relate to production, raw material and
transportation costs here and abroad;
proportion of tariff duties which owe
production cost differences here and
abroad and the proportion which
amounts to a manufacturers profit
and other tariff problems.
Senator Simmons said there would
be about 25 questions in all, but he
will withhold the list until he is GER
tain the Republican leaders intend to
bring the matter up again.
Vice President Marshall called on
the finance committee chairman today
and discussed with him the tariff and
its prospects in the senate. The vice
president said he did not discuss rates
or schedules and Chairman Simmons
said the conference was merely infor-
NAL and had to do with the handling
OF the bill when it reached the senate

CASE AGAINST THE CHARLOTTE
OBSERVER
Standing Master Price Decides In Fav-
mr. of Gonzales and HomnhiU.

Standing Master Price Decides In FaY-
or of Gonzales and Hemphil.
Salisbury, May "a. H. Price,
standing master for the district, last
night forwarded to Judge J.. E. Boyd
his report in the Charlotte Observer
case, which was referred to him and
by him heard fully.
Briefly the report finds that the
compliments, A. E. Gonzales and J.
G. Hemphill, are entitled to the fact
that equity is with them, finding that
the partnership on which the con-
tentions rests, existed in fact, and that
Messrs. Gonzales, Hemphil1, Tomp-
kins, Stephens and Wood were equal
partners in the ownership of the en-
tire assets of the Observer Company,
including the Tompkins shares of
about 20 per cent, and the Caldwell
shares bought by Tompkins.
The First National Bank, of Char
lotte, holding the notes of the COM
|plainants, is enjoined from collecting
them, and the master recommends
that a received be named to collect the
assets and adjust all matters between
the i've partners to the original agree
ment- This finding was presented to
Judge Bcyd's court this morning.
This is q complete finding In favor
OF Messrs. Gonzales and Hemphill.
