C. A feature of the tariff revision programme of the extra session of congress may be the raising of $100,000,000 from an in come tax, including the corporation tax. Representative Hull, of Tennes see, a Democratic memDer oi tne com mittee on ways and means, who has been active in income-tax problems, plans to introduce a bill which would provide such a source of revenjie. This would be considered by the committee in connection with contem plated early ratification of the consti tutional amendment to sanction in come tax legislation. Of the neces sary number of states required for rat ification, only two are lacking. Mr. Hull expects these to be drawn from New Jersey, Wyoming, New Mexico or West Virginia, or possibly Florida, whose legislature, however, will not meet until April. The Democratic majority of the committee favors an income tax, but in the event of failure of ratification will renew the excise tax plan as an extension of the present corporation tax law.

Moreover, the gov ernors "earnestly protest" against his action, and while they strongly desire to co-operate in legislation, they ask for a conference to discuss the situa tion. This request was made in a tel egram sent to the governor by Presi dent Mahon, of the Stock exchange. Cooper Favors Memorial. Washington, D. C The Washing ton monument was characterized as an Egyptian obelisk," the postoffice department building as a "cross be tween a cathedral and a cotton fac tory, and the pension bunding as a lovely red shed that disfigured Judi ciary Square," in a speech by Repre sentative Cooper, of Wisconsin.

Portland across the ALLIES EXPECT TO RESUME WAR Bombardment and Capture of Adrianople First Move. Young Turks Believe Resumption of War Absolutely Necessary No Fear of Result. - "This highway bridge Columbia river between Oregon and Washington I consider to be the most necessary oi me ,. highway projects that have ueen pro posed to us this year," was the senti ment expressed by Senator Halpn Nichols, of Seattle, at the dinner at the Commercial club, which closed the day of activity of the joint representa tives of Oregon and Washington in in vestigating the plans for the Columbia river interstate bridge at Vancouver. In extending the welcome of the Portland Commercial club and the city of Portland to the visiting delegations President Piper voiced the same idea when he said: "The Portland Commercial club, through me, desires to tell you that it considers the interstate bridge acnss the Columbia river the greatest of all recent projects for the upbuilding of the Northwest." Every representative and senator, either from the Oregon or the Wash ington delegations, spoke in a similar vein, and the keynote of each address was thej prophecy that the Columbia interstate bridge is to become a reality.

Vienna A dispatch from Sofia says: "In accordance with the de cision of the government, army head quarters have been ordered to termi nate the armistice. London The Balkan peace negotia tions, which reached a deadlock over the cession of Adrianople on January 6, finally were broken Thursday by a note which the plenipotentiaries of the Balkan allies presented to Rechad Pasha, head of the Turkish delegation. Notwithstanding this rupture, there still are optimists in the diplomatic world who hope a resumption of the war may yet be averted, either through fresh proposals that Turkey is report ed to be including in the note she will deliver to the powers, or throus-h the fall of Adrianople before activities can be begun again af the Tchatalja lines A majority of the Balkan delegates refuse to admit the likelihood of either contingency, believing that the life of the young Turk government depends upon the resumption of the war, even though the allies should be willing to postpone the conflict. They are of the opinion that the present failure of diplomacy, at the worst, only is an in terlude, however, for they will leave four representatives in London to un dertake the settlement anew. Rechad Pasha, after reviewing the note, said: The consequences may be of the gravest nature. The responsibility les not alone with the allies, but with the powers, who encouraged the Bal kan states and have shown no fairness toward Turkey, although before the war they had proclaimed solemnly the principle of the unchangeablity of the statu quo." The plan of the allied governments, so far as the plenipotentiaries are in formed, is to concentrate their forces on Adrianople immediatley after the expiration of the prescribed four days, f the surrender of that fortress does not occur in the meantime. They be- ieve that a few days' bombardment Dy tne Dig siege Datteries which now surround Adrianople will bring about ts capitulation. Six-Year Term Up in Senate. Washington, D. C. Final action on the resolution for a six-year presiden tial term to be submitted as a consti tutional amendment to the states will be taken in the senate before adjourn ment. The Works resolution, which as been pending for several months, as been made a special order of bus- ness. it is believed the measure will have a strong majority in its favor. The proposed amendment, if ratified by three-fourths of the states, would become effective after the end of President Wilson's term. HOUNDS TO SEE INAUGURAL Be Qualified M. F. II. Guarantees havior of Keen-Nosed Dogs, Washington, D. C. Dogs of high degree are to participate in festivities attendant upon the induction into office of President Woodrow Wilson and will march in the inaugural parade. "Finely-bred, splendidly-trained, keen-nosed fox hounds are going to have a section of the parade all their own," says an announcement from the inaugural committee in heralding this menagerial feature of the coming pa geant. "The finest pack of hounds in all the world," is the description given to the canine group, which Mr. Lester Jones of Culpepper, Va., is assembling to lope ahead of a mounted brass band that will escort hunt club riders from the president-elect's native state in the civil section of the parade. Dr. Jones declared the hounds would he so well trained that they would "stick to the middle of the road," and not scat ter all over the line of march. A competent M. F. H. will serve a. grand marshal to the canine corps. Homes of 120,000 to Go. Paris The problem of finding i commodation for 120,000 people, who are to be evicted from their dwellings owing to the sale of the antiquated fortifications of Paris to city authori ties by the French government, is now before the Municipal council for solu tion. The space occupied by the 21 mile wall encircling Paris and the "firing zone," 500 yards in width, facing it, is to be converted into pub lic parks. This space is now covered by many thousand ramshackle houses, occupied by the poorer working people. Taft Host of Congress, Washington, D.

Great Grimsby, England Twelve of the crew of the bark Agda were drowned when that vessel foundered at the mouth of the Humber. Three sail ors, the only survivors, were picked up by a trawler and landed here. When the Agda went down in a violent strom, the members of the crew took to boat, which was capsized three times.

C Rebel activltl... continue without abatement within 15 FreightlTrains Late; National Con vention Is Postponed. New Orleans. La. Related freight trains and enforcement of vagrancy laws in the Southern states combined to postpone the first session of the an nual national hobo convention in this city.

James Eads Howe, of St. Iouis, so called "millionaire hobo," and Presi dent Davis have made unsuccessful efforts to rent a hall for the conven tion, but they hoie to convene soon. OGORMAN FOR FREE TOLLS Declaration by Wilson's Friend Regarded as Significant. Washington, D. C In view of the friendship between President-elect Wilson and Senator O'Gorman, of New York, some significance is being attached to the senator's statement. when asked whether the incoming ad ministration would recommend a re peal of the free tolls provision of the Panama art. "It seems to me," said Senator O'Gorman, "that Democrats who fav or a repeal of the free tolls provision must wait for the declaration of an other national convention. The last national convention adopted unani mously a declaration in favor of free tolls. That is Democratic doctrine and I think it will stand for four years. Girls Give Up Cuticle.

Salem Just what Senator-elect l.ane meant in his speech accepting the election to the I'niti-d Stati s sen atorship, when he referred to electing senators on a preferential ballot, but one election to be held, is elucidated by a bill introduced in the house by Representative Lawrence, of Multno mah. The election of governor, senators and representatives i covered by this bill, which is aimi-d to secure, if possi ble, the majority of opinion of all the voters, as to whom they desire for these offices. It is pnvid-d in the bill that the voter express his first choice for a candidate by any of these offices in the first column opite the names on the ballot, his second choice in the second column, an'l his choice for all other candidates that he would be willing to see in the office, in case neither his first, or his second choice should win, in the hird column.
