Killtor Nw-Ucvlew: So much mislnrnrmatlun In bHnc circ ulated by thone opioi d to the pndlnK Kill for Income Tax thai I cannot refrain from directing the at tention of your readera to a few out MtiindMiK facta regarding the Kill. Kirxt, 1 want to nay that It inu't at all probable that the Dill in perfect. No Kueh Iilll could be framed an It must be by erring humanity. Experi ence, however, haa tautibt that the n come Tax ia the uiOMt economical way of raielng revenue to support a gov ernment that the Ingenuity of man haH yet deviaed. Inutead of the ma chinery and means provided for letting the tax being inoHt expenaive aa haa been frequently averted, th' experience of governinpnia a.fng the Income Tax haa proven it to be the least expennlve. Ko well haa thL-b-en tatabliKlied that the great State of New York raises all of ita titate revenues by the Income Tax. leaving the property tax to the Countiea and other local communities. Second, wltn an unlimited supply o money, apparently, tlione opposing the tax are circulating the misstatement that the tax will be burdensome to the working man. Much haa been about the working man who earns lit). mi a week having to pay a tax. 1. a working man earns Il'iulO a week and works every week in the year, and haa no expenses chargeable to his work, and haa no dependent, hi would pay a tax upon the sum of ll'i.uo. These mis-atatements that are circulated are Intended to leave the ' lnipretjon that such a working man would pay a tax on IKMO Ofl, the amount he would earn In the fifty-two weeks. They mention nothing about the (l.OnO.OD exemption. So the fact Is that a working man earning $20. Of1 a week would pay a tax of one cent on $40.00 amounting to the great .ium of 4.0c. Ihhs not a working m;in, or any other person who lives under a gov ernment providing the conditions ant' the means whereby he may earn $l!0.no a week by the labor of hip hands, owe at least 40c a year to the support of such a government? if the working man has a depend ent such as a mother or father, or any olhi'r member of his family, depend ent uKn him, he has an exemption of 5100.00 a year, nnd would have to earn more than Mtoo.00 a year before he would be subject to any tax. If lie was married lie would have an ex emption of ,$2000.00 a year, so that, he would have to earn more than $2000.00 a year before, ho would have to pay any tax. If he wiw married and had one child he would have to pay any tax. If he was married and had one child he would have to earn more than $2400 .00 before paying a tax. and if be had two children he muM earn $2Xoo.0u and If he has three chil dren ho must earn $3800.00 before pay ing a tax. These figures demonstrate that the working man, or the r.mai; salaried man, has no reason to com plain of the tax to which this Income Tax Dill subjects him. It is reiterated that the Ilill wool' drive capital from the State. That i- the mere gratuitous statement of the opponent of the Iilll. It is not sup ported by cither facts or logic. Ti Hill does not tax capital. Why then should capital be afraid of it? It Is reiterated by the 11111 that cor poral ions and banks are exempt. Like these other statements that is not true. The people who make that state ment are relying tion the prejudice of tho people to b influenced by i' I'orporations. including banks, would pay a tax under the same conditions that an Individual pays a tax, sub stantially. The foundation for tin mis-statements circulated about th corporations Is that conorations are allowed to deduct from their Income the amount paid to their stockholders In dividend. The stockholders, how ever, are required to pay a tax on th dividends received from the corpora tions. Consequently die earnings ot i the corporation are taxed to the stock- holders on the same income would b ! double taxation. ! The opposition to the Income Tax i seems to have an unlimited suppply o I money. The great number of prop I erty lax payers are not organized and not sufficiently amused to the serl ; outness of the situation to take In terest, apparently, In the Hill. Wh do these people who are cirrulatlnc these mis-statements about the Hill spend money so freely to defeat it 7 It Is not because the man with the Invested money, or the man who ' renpltu lar;e profits without payinc lam property tax.

Eugene Arrives With Large Crowd of Boosters and Band Both Teams Expecting Some Real Fight. . ; With Interest at the highest pitch and with the self assurance that they are going to put up their best fight against the Eugene grid warriors, the local high school squad formed their line today for a fight to the finish. A big bonfire rally last night at the Laurelwood field brought out a large crowd of students and helped them get organized for some real yelling in today's boosting. Fully two hundred students gathered around the fire last night and worked their pep up for the game. Another big rally today at 1 o'clock which terminated by leading a big crowd to the field also boosted things along. The Kugeners arrived this morning with their band and boosters "rar.'o' " for a fight and Just as determined to "carry home the bacon'' aa the Kose hurg fellows were to keep it here. Their crowd of rooters shows some real organised practice iu boosting their team along and the band puts additional spirit into the players. A crowd of nearly 200 rooters are ex pected by the time the game opens. The two teams are as fit as they have been at any time during the season and are anticipating some op position at every play. The officials for the game were also on hand at nn early hour this morning, giving out nn information as to their ideas of the contest. Karly this afternoon the advance ticket sale indicated that a good crowd would ho on hand to hull the players when they first trot out on the field. Since this Is to be the last home game for tin? boys and In cidently tho last chance that a good many local fans will have to see them In action there will undoubtedly he a splendid representation of Itoae burg husincas men and townspeople boosting from the sidelines. o In a one-sided game of football yesterday evening at Laurelwood field, the Henson school football team demonstrated superiority over the Itese school aggregation by win ning the contest by a score of 37 to 0. The ltenson school team was slightly heavier and displayed a much more thorough knowledge of the game. The Itose school players were entirely unable to hold the North-aiders nnd the ltenson boys went through the opposing line for six touchdowns. Intense interest was displayed by the students of both schools and there was a great deal o fexciied comment from the side lines. Hill Burr served as ref eree, Coach Larson, umpire, Karl lliirr. head linesman, nnd H. W. (Jus tin, timekeeper. MASK BALL1 At Winchester. Sat. nite, Nov. 3. Where ou always have a good time.
