Prepared evidently for the wont
that can befall him this week at me
-wiAm tha Cnnrt of- Tmneachment.
William Sulzer Is exhibiting a degree
of nerve and confidence in nimseii
which amazes even those who know
him best.
Convinced at last that his chances
of acquittal are slight, Mr. Sulzer is
making ready to keep up his fight on
Charles F. Murphy. The statement he
has prepared and which Is being held
for release presuDPOses that he will be
found guilty by the court. He evident
ly expects nothing else and hia future
moves are arranged with that in view.
Fight to Be Waged on Tammany.
Drawing his inspiration -from the
mass of encouraging letters which
come to him daily. Mr. Sulzer stands
ready, he declares, to seek revenge of
his political enemies. He will not ac
cept the verdict of the Court of Im
peachment as final and sink Into po
litical oblivion without a struggle. He
will denounce the verdict and with
his plea of conspiracy take his story
to the people. He will keep alive the
agitation as long as he can find an
audience to listen to him. Defeat of
every Tammany candidate will be his
aim.
After spending hours In the seclusion
of his library reading letters of en
couragement from every part of the
state the Governor stepped out on the
j - th. -ror.il r i v a residence at
S o'clock this afternoon with a bolder
stride than has been nis ior a win
His countenance and demeanor indi
cated he was relieved that the ordeal
of his trial was over.
Sailer Bitter Aa-alaa Mnrpfcy.
To the butler he said, "Tell the
newspaper men I will not talk yet"
and he went for & long automobile
ride. Through the entire day he was
alone. There were no callers - and
none came to see him on official busi
ness of the Impeachment case.
To one of his callers in the last few
days Mr. Sulzer is said to have given
the index to his frame of mind when
he declared, "Murphy may have the
votes to put me out of the governor
ship, but if I go out of politics I will
take him with me."
Since the ending of the trial a dif
ferent version has been heard concern
ing Mr. Sulzer"s non-appearance ' as a
witness. Through the trial, the Im
pression was given that Mr. Sulzer
was fighting with his counsel to be
permitted to take the stand and that
he even threatened to disregard the
advice of the counsel and go to court
on his own account.
Sulser Refuse, to Take Stand.
Now it develops that at least two
of the counsel begged Mr. Sulzer to
take the stand, declaring that the pub
lic demanded his appearance. Harvey
D. Hinman Is said to have led in the
demand and to have been seconded by
X. Cady Herrlck. Louis Mars alone
held that the case should rest on the
constitutional argument.
Mr. Sulzer could have taken the
stand if he had chosen, with little or
no opposition by his counsel, it Is
asserted, but he Is said to have re
fused to listen to this advice.
Verdict Expected Tuesday.
A verdict In the impeachment trial
probably will not be reached before
Tuesday Is the general impression to
night. Court will not convene until
2:30 tomorrow afternoon, after which
the rules for balloting and other pro
cedure must be decided. The court
first will take up the proposition as to
whether certain testimony shall be
stricken out and then will consider the
constitutional objections raised by
Eulzer's counsel against the Impeach
ment charges.
It was rumored tonight that State
Senator Palmer, to whom Mrs. Sulzer
told her story after the Governor was
Impeached, would ask that the case
be reopened and that he and Mrs. Sul
zer be Invited to testify. Senator
Palmer denied any such intention.
MAZAMAS WALK 24 MILES

Going to Canby by train yesterday,
a party of Mazamas walked from that

13 of them walking all the way, the

WILLIAM
REVENUE REPORT 111
American in Charge of Philip
pine Tax Collections.
OPIUM RECEIPTS DECREASE
All Funds Are Collected by One
Bureau and Later Are Dis
tributed to Municipalities
and Provinces.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Oct. 12. The Bureau of Insular
Affairs has Just received the annual re
port of William T. Noltlng, the Collec
tor of Internal Revenue of the Philip
pine Islands, for the fiscal year ending
June 30. This bureau collects not only
the taxes on liquors and tobacco but
also the cedula or polltax, the percent
age tax on sales of merchandise and
all occupation taxes. These taxes are
to some extent of a local nature, the
cedula being entirely so, and while
collected by the agents of the central
office are later apportioned to the prov
inces and municipalities.
For tha year ending June 30 last Col
lector Nolting reports total collections
of $11,392,382.98, an increase of $800,
298.83, or 714 per cent, over the preced
ing year. Of the increase nearly $700,000
was duo to a larger output by manu
factories of taxable articles and to a
stricter enforcement of the laws im
posing taxes.
The amounts named include the land
tax, $682,716.40, in the City of Manila,
which has a population of approxi
mately 300,000. Of internal revenue
proper the tax collected on alcoholic
and tobacco products was $4,040,618.31,
on dealers $333,165, and on imported
articles of this nature. $333,996. One
Item of decreased receipts is gratify
ing the amount of penalties collected
under the opium law it being less
than $46,000, or a decrease of more
than 26 per cent.
Tho apportionable taxes amounted to
17,434.278 pesos, or half that many dol
lars, including the regular cedula or
poll tax, $1,071,581, which was divided
equally between the municipalities and
provinces, the extra cedula tax voted
by the various provincial boards,
amounting to nearly as much, having
gone to the provinces for road and
bridge purposes. The municipalities re
ceived license taxes to the extent of
something over $300,000, while the other
collections of $1,682,041 were divided
equally between the municipalities and
provinces.
One phase of Mr. Noltlng's report
shows an interesting bit of light on
the working out of the policy of reduc
ing the number of Americans In the
Philippine service as rapidly as quali
fied Filipinos became available. Thus
the Bureau of Internal Revenue began
the year with 430 regular and tem
porary employes, of whom 85 were
Americans; while on June 30 this num
ber had been reduced to 48. In the
process of reorganization the collector
substituted Filipinos in a number of
positions heretofore occupied by Ameri
cans exclusively, and finds with f9W
exceptions the results have been better
than hoped for.

Superintendent Aldrman Tells Men
of Means Where They Can Put
Money to Good Advantage.
"I hope that the time will come when

intendent of Portland Schools. In the
forum discussion" which followed his
address at the Unitarian Church last
night
"If you want to find out what you
can do to help the schools you need
not go to New York. There are plenty
of opportunities for you to study the
situation and to give effective help
right here In Portland. If you have
money to give, there are students fin

can obtain emnlovment and communi

learned In the schools."
Mr. Alderman also spoke of the plan
for the establishment of a school for
the temporarily unemployed, in which
they may fit themselves for better po
sitions. Mr. Alderman emphasized the

There will be an election in tne rirsi

portance Is attached by the managers
of both ReDUblican and Democratic
organizations. It is to fill the vacancy
caused by the resignation of Repre

Congress to accept the position of Solicitor-General
under the Wilson Ad

The First West Virginia District had
been a staunch Republican district for
many years until Mr. Davis carried it
in the Democratic landslide of 1910 by
a plurality of some 3000 votes. Last
year Mr. Davis was re-elected by a
plurality of 169. At the last election
Wilson received 23,000 votes in the dis
trict, Roosevelt 13,000 and Taft 12.000
in round numbers. This time there
are five candidates to be voted for at
the special Congressional election.
George W. Laughlin, of Wheeling, who
was the Republican nominee, defeated
by Mr. Davis a year ago by a narrow
margin, is the Progressive candidate.

Linn County Clerk Raises Question
Regarding Special Election.
SALEM, Or., Oct. 12. (Special.) W.
L. Marks, Clerk of Linn County, has
made a discovery in the election laws
which may affect local option elections
throughout the state. He has notified
Secretary of State Olcott that the code
provides the polls must be open at spe
cial elections from 8 o'clock in the

as a law passed at the recent session
of the Legislature provides tho polls
must be open from 8 o'clock in the
morning until 8 o'clock at night.
Mr. Olcott believes the new law re
peals the section providing for voting
hours by implication, but urged Mr.

from- the Attorney-General.
