Introdere Primary Bill.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DKS MDl.VKS, la., Jan. 30.- Special Tel
egram ) The house committee on consti
tutional amendments in the morning will
report for passage a Joint resolution In
favor of having the federal constitution
nmrnded to permit applying the Income
tax. The resolution will not be opposed
in either branch.
The senate ways and means committee
gnve extended hearing tnlay td repre
sentatives of the tax adjusters of low on
the bill to forbid counties and cities mak
ing contracts for tax ferret work. A
strong showing was made of the value ot
these contracts In adding to the taxable
value of the property of the state. The
bill lias passed the house and the senti
ment ajralnat tax ferrets Is strong.
Another Move for t'ancna.
It Is planned among the legislators that
In a few days another move will be made
to call a regular republican caucus for
the selection of a republican candidate
for the senate to oppose the democratic
caucus nominee. It is expected that Judge
Kenvon will arrive tomorrow to urge his
followers to remain firm In fils support,
and It Is regarded probable Senator Young
will return In a week more. The Introduc
tion today of a special primary bill by a
democrat Indicates that If there 1 to be
any special legislation looking to ending
this deadlock It will have to be along the
line of having a genuine election and not
a mere primary- to select a candidate.
Ministers to Aid Firemen.
Ministers of Des Moines will aid In the

Aviator McCurdy on the announcement by
cable that he had left Key West fof Co
lumbia camp, four miles outside ths capital,
where the aviation meet Is In full swing.
The McCurdy flight Is regarded as one
of the most noteable ever undertaken by an
aviator because of the over-sea distance
to be covered which Is about sis times the
ji.iun nf the flights from Dover to
Calais, w hich attracted the attention of the
world. The distance from. Key West to
Havana is about 113 miles, while the uover
Calais route Is about eighteen.
fwlmm at ktatht 1'hoaaand.
The flight Is for a prise of o,0u0 Offered
by the Havana Post and $3,000 appropriated
by the Havana city council.
It was estimated that McCurdy should
h v j. eeac hed Havana by 10 o'clock, and
when that hour passed great uneaalneas
waa e Dressed. Then came a wireless that
the aviator had fallen Into the sea. Finally
came the news that McCurdy had Xieen
forced to alight on the water, because of
a shortage of lubricating oil and that
neither he nor his machine had been in
Jured.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 30. Officials of the

the Interrupted flight of Aviator MCLurdy.
Captain W. I. Chambers, the aeronautlca

hat they found aatlsfactlon In the fact
.hat the aviator had broken all world

i'r the last week the army and navy

out his course so that when he was once
out of slaht of land he might still be able
to direct his aeroplane toward Havana. .
The secondary purpose of placing the
v...... ,n the course was to pick up Mc
Curdy If anything should happen to his
machine. The commandant of the naval
station at Key West recorded McCurdy
progress In brief telegrams to the Navy
department.
The Paulding was placed thirty-three and
one-half miles from Havana because It
was estimated that the aviator could see
the land from that diatance and no longer
would be In need of direction from the

Canadian Treaty
to Foreign Relations
Senate Changei Reference from Com
mittee on Finance After
Debate.
WASHINGTON. Jan SO -The president's
Canadian reciprocity treaty today received
Its first airing In the senate. The discus
sion arose In connection with a resolution
of Senator Cullom of Illinois to change ref
erence of tho bill from the committee on
finance to the committee on foreign rela
tions. Senator I ley burn of Idaho although in
the end he did not l-ermst In his objection
contended that as the aureenient dealt with
the tariff, the forelun relations committee
could have no Jurisdiction. He argued that
the executive tlojiartmcnt had transcended
Its authority in entering Into the compact
with Canada.
Senator Hailcy of Texas averted that If
the Canadian compact were a mere agree
ment the president had been without au
thority to act, whereas If It was a treaty
he had such authority.
I'ltlmately Mr. Cullom s motion prevailed.
When the resolution providing for the
election of senators by direct vote of the
people was reached today In the senate It
looked for a moment as If It might go
through by default.
"1 object." at lust said Senator Kean, un
obtrusively. "The senator can make ho objection to
the adoption of that resolution?" remarked
Senator Shlvely, Inquiringly.
The New Jersey senator made no reply,
but later when Senator Borah sought to
obtain unanimous consent to vote on the
resolution on February 10 Senator Penrose
filed an objection, thua effectively obstruct
ing present disposition of the resolution.

Former Senator Teller and Representa
tive Taylor of Colorado this morning called
on President Taft In reference to his
recommendations that appeals from decis
ions ot the secretary ot the interior In
land cases may be taken before the United
States court of appeals of the District of
Columbia. Representatives of the great
public land districts and their constituents,
while desiring a court where they may ap
peal Xrorn decisions of the Interior depart
ment, do not take kindly to the suggestion
of being compelled to come before a court
In the District of Columbia. They feel that
such cases could be less expensively heard
and more expeditiously disposed of If appeal
rested with the United States circuit courts
of the country. They believe that a great
hardship would result to western home
seekers If obliged to come to Washington
or td employ either their own attorneys or
attorneys residing here to prosecute their
claims. They hold most strongly to the
belief that their welfare In such appeals
would best be conserved If permitted to be
heard before United States circuit courts
within the sone where the cases arose.
Appeals from Department.
Representative Mondell has Introduced a
bill which provides for the hearing of
these appeals from decisions of the secre
tary of the Interior before the United
States circuit courts, Instead of before the
United States circuit court of appeals of
the District of Columbia, as recommended
by President Taft in his last message to
congress. President Taft listened to his
Colorado visitors attentively and intimated
that If a bill drawn along the lines sug
gested by them should reach him for sig
nature he would not oppose It.
Senator Burkett today recommended the
appointment of John T. Cox to be post
master at Howe, Neb.
Cadet Taylor of Omaha, who Is a candi
date for the surveyorshlp of the port ot
Omaha, is In town with a view of clearing
up charges that have been made against
him In relation to said candidacy.
Taylor had a conference with Senator
Brown today and later saw the secretary
of the treasury, with whom a protest has
been lodged by Victor Rosewater, editor of
The Omaha Bee. against his appointment.
The senators are still considering Taylor's
selection, but will do nothing until after
the charges against Taylor have been com
pletely InveHtigated by the Treasury de
partment officials and a report thereon
has been handed down.

'Senator Lafayette Young of Iowa ar
rived In Washington this morning, having
left Des Moines, where he has been for
some time conducting hla campaign for

of President Taft's reciprocity arrange

of the president for years, was a mem
ber of the famous Taft Philippine party
and an original Taft man for the nomina
tion In 1908. But the prospect of Canadian
competition with the products of Iowa
farms was too much for the senator.
