OREGON I AX NEWS BUrtEAU, Wash
InRton. D. C. March 23. F. J. Heney s
latet protest ajcalnst the appointment
of senator Fulton to the Federal bench
In Oregon, which was brought here by
Tracy C. Becker, covers Identically the
same ground as Mr. lTeney-s oral attack
made In Portland. There are no new
charges and only the more important
features of the old attack are reiterated
Mr. Becker. In conference with the
1 resident, undertook to substantiate
w-hat Mr. lieney charged over his sig
nature, and upheld Mr. Heney in his
opinions, lie also, it Is understood, made
the statement that Judge Wolverton
and I irotilt Judge Gilbert are not favor
hle to Mr. Fulton's appointment.
Those who are assailing: Mr. Fulton
have discovered that the administration
is very persistent In its determination
to get at the motive behind the attacks.
A hat the administration wants to know
Is why Mr. Heney Is so insistent In his
tight on Mr. Fulton, why Mr. Becker Is
so anxious that Mr. Fulton shall not
go on the bench, why Senator Bourne
Is so bitter In his denunciation of his
Into colleague, and why Senator Cham
berlain Is exerting his Influence against
his predecessor.
As the Attorney General has not con
cluded his Investigation of the charges
against Mr. Fulton, no mentloi. what
ever was made of this appointment at
today's Cabinet meeting.,,

DIVIDEND TAX SUGGESTED
No Decision as to New Taxation Is
Iilkely to Bo Reached for Some
Little Time Inheritance
Tax Assumes Form.
WASHINGTON, March 23. At the
longest Cabinet meeting of the present
Administration, with a full membership
attending, finances were discussed in de
tail today. The discussion turned upon
the subject of raising revenues to replen
ish the Treasury and to provide against
a further reduction in the event that
there Is an actual reduction of revenues
from the revised tariff bill.
Among the many measures that have
been brought forward is that of a 2 per
cent tax on the dividends of corporations
other than banks, trust companies and
Insurance companies.
It was said today that, although Presi
dent Taft had gone, so far as to ask for
an estimate from the Treasury Depart
ment as to the amount of revenue that
might be derived from such tax, he was
by no means committed to the proposi
tion. The Treasury estimate was J15.
000,000. A decision as ty what measure of tax
ation shall be adopted apparently is a
long way off, for there is no unanimity
of opinion as to any of the propositions
so far considered. The only proposition
that has assumed definite form Is that of
an Inheritance tax, and this method has
aroused a storm of protest from the
states where such a tax already is levied
to raise state revenues.
The President and his advisers believe
that some acceptable substitute for indi
rect taxation would be devised.
It is asserted upon what is thought to
be accurate Information that a majority
of the members of the Senate finance
committee regard with disfavor the pro
posed Inheritance tax, the proposed in
come tax, levies upon dividends of cor
porations, tax on coffee and practically
all forms of stamp taxes.
'No credence Is given at the Capitol
to the story that President Taft and
Senator Aldrich have disagreed over any
feature of the tariff bill. It Is generally
believed that the President will welcome
any plan to avoid imposing these taxes
if they can be avoided without raising
the existing duties on the necessities of
life and by lowering the duties on some
articles he believes too high.
