et at rest all questions as to how claims
' against the state by the various com
missions, normal schools, charitable
-homes, etc., will be treated by the sec
retary oi state. Air. jUcUuire asked
what form of claim he should file for
services and expenses, and if he might

Answering, the secretary of state
said:
"I decline to file or recognize in any
way claims against ine stale Dy the va
rious commissions, normal schools,
-charitable homes, etc. They depend
upon appropriations of the legislature
for what they receive, and when there
is no appropriation thev have no valid
claims against the state, and will not
nave, any until an appropriation is made
for their benefit. In the case of those
claiming; to be commissioners there is
also doubt as to whether they are le-
iruiiy in omce. iney can present their
claims w ine legislature, 11 they think
they have any, but they cannot file
them in this office nor receive any cer-
viuctie or Diner recognition oi claims

Here are some of the institutions af-

that the state would save during the bi

dict of the people, and it wijl not be un-
neeaea.
Economy is demanded in every branch
of the government at all times, but es
pecially in periods like the present de
pression of business and distress among
the people. The severest economy must
be observed in all public expenditures
and extravagance stopped wherever it
is found, and prevented wherever is the
future it may be developed. 11 the reve
nues are to remain as now the only re
lief that can come muBt be from de
creased expenditures. But the present
must not become the permanent condi
tion of the government. It has been our
uniform practice to retire, not to in
crease our outstanding obligations and
this policy must be again resumed and
vigorously enforced. Our revenuo should
always be large enough to meet with
ease and promptness not only our cur
rent needs and the principal and inter
est of the public debt, but to make proper
and liberal provisions for that most de
serving body of public creditors, the sol
dier and sailors and the widows and or
phans who are the pensioners of the
United States.
The government should not be ner-
mitted to run behind or increase its
debt in times like the present. Suitably
to provide is the mandate of duty, a cer
tain and easv remedy for the most nf
our nnanciai oimculties. A dehciencv
is inevitable so lone as the expenditures
01 me government exceeds its receipts
It can onlv be met bv loans or an in
creased revenue. While a large annual
surplus of revenue mav invite watte and
extravagance, inadequate revenue cre
ates distrust and undermines public and
private credit. Neither .should be en
couraged.

the following information is volun

state taxes become delinquent is not

The law provides that on or before the
nrst Monday of 1 ebruarv in each vear.
the several county treasurers shall Dav
over to the state treasurer the amount
of taxes due, which shall be paid out of
the first moneys collected by the county
treasurer. This applies to all counties
except wasco, Umatilla, Uaker, Union,
Grant, Jackson, Coos, Curry and Jose
phine. The treasurers of the enumer
ated counties.are required to pay their
state tax to tho state treasurer on or
berore the firstMonday in April in each
year. State taxes become delinquent
ana oear o per cent interest, II not paid
within 30 days after the time fixed by
law. bo tuxes in all counties, except
the named list, becomo delinquent
March 3d, or 30 days after tho first
Monday in Ffibruary. In the other
counties, taxes, if not paid, will not be
come delinquent May 7, or 30 days from
tho first Monday in April.
Marion County, which 1b included In
the delinquent list, has lust becun the
collection of 1806 taxes, less than 100
lax receipts being so lar issued, in
the matter of the raise of more than
$2000, by reason of the action of the
state equalization board, the county
proposes to ignore such action. The
county treasurer -has been instructed
by the county.court to pay over to the
state treasurer only the amount due
upon the assessed valuation of tho prop

Forthwith this mother called on Winter

zealous and untiring superior of the
lepers' home in Louisiana. Sister An.

have made this home a real home for
those who dwell in it. The sisters es
tablished themselves in the old Cooid

somewhat fallen into decay. With that
genius for systematic and wise admin.
istration which is characteristic of the

of a grove of towering- pecans and wide

service of humanity.
