ator Dimick said there was no reason

from that derived from the millage tax
for the school. He declared that Sena
tor Hawley, who introduced the bill
providing for the mlllage appropriation
two years ago, promised that no other
appropriation would be asked.
Senator Day said it would be a breach
of faith not to make the appropriation,
as members of the House who hold for
the bill repealing continuing appropria

appropriation would be made. Senator
Vinton while admitting the school was
a necessity, said few poor boy.s were
able to attend, and that the sons of the

STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or.. Feb. 18.
(Special.) The new tax bill as
passed by the Senate today provides
for no penalty on delinquent first half
taxes. A bill providing for a penalty
of 2 per cent was passed by the Sen
ate Thursday, but the House refused to
concur in it, and the conference com
mittees today agreed to eliminate the
penalty. Interest at the rate of 1 per
cent a" month is all the delinauent will
be required to pay until after Novem
ber 5. when a 5 per cent penalty will be
added on all unpaid taxes.
it nrn thought bv a majority of the
Senators that a small penalty on first
lf taxes would be necessary to Jn-
uce early payments, but the House be
lieved the interest of 1 per cent a
month would do this. Senator Per
kins, chairman of the Senate commit
tee on assessment and taxes, said that
In Multnomah County to pay current
expenses 65 per cent of the total should
be received on the first payments.
What is considered the important
fen turf of the new bill Is the one pro
viding two tax-paying periods April 5
and October 5. Under the existing law
11 taxes are due April 1, ana ir nan
are paid at that time interest and pen
alty immediately attach to the balance.

Khosa eot was found on the river
hank Tuesday with a note saying that
he had drowned himself, lends weignt
to the latest theory that he left the

to evade a recent order of the court
that he provide a proper home for his
wifa and children.
The officers were going to drag the
river Wednesday, but were informed
that Freed was. at a logging camp near
Kelso, An investigation revealed the
fact, however, that he had left there
Tuesday for Centralla. A warrant

PROPOSED DOG IiAAV IS KILLED
Measure Backed by Sheepmen Con
sidered Too Drastic.
STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Feb. 19,
.(SDeelal.) Senator Bingham maae
rletermined fight for his bill to exter
minate sheep-killing dogs, but it was
ripfaated today by a small majority,
Many of the Senators opposed it because
of Its drastic nature, declaring that no
dog would be safe under us provisions.
The section considered iiaru.uwuj w
jectionable was as follows:
"Anv nerson may kill any dog. h
sees pursuing, worrying or wounding
any horses, cattle, sheep, swine or
other livestock or domestic fowls. Any
person may kill any dog which he
finds straying on any farm whereon
hnr.M cattle, sheep, swine or other
n,,ctnr-v nr domestic fowls are kept
The "bill provided .that the County
ccC..nr should collect licenses of $1
- na mala doe and $2 for each addi
.iq1 male doe and $2 for one female
.nri S3 for each additional femiil
owned oy a peisu.i ui
Hob-
Trained dogs owned by sheepmen were
exempted from license.
c...in Rinham argued that the
passage of the bill was necessary for
the protection of the sheep Industry
h Willamette Valley. He declared
the bill was aimed at the cur dogs that
run at large and that persons who cared
for their canines would not only be
willing to pay the license fees but
would keep them at home. Senator
Hawley said the protection afforded
by the bill was necessary for the pres
ervation of the sheep industry.
"I trust this bill will not pass, said
Senator FarrelL "The Portland Kennel
Club opposes it- They want the sheep
protected, bvft under this bill any dog
caught in the country would be killed.
I read this bill in a New York news
paper first, which explained it was
planned for introduction in all the
State Legislatures this year. I don)
know what Is back of it, but it should
not pass."
Senator Perkins said if for no other
reason he opposed the bill because it
exempted from license me us
iheepmen. If tne men wnu
ng protection did not want to pay the
fees, he saw no reason wny powr peo
ple should be compelled to do so.
