By morning most, if not all. of your

Many War Taxes Do Xot Apply.
Stamp Cost to Jolt Candidates.
SALEM, Or., Nov. 7. (Special.
While the state- has exemptions from
the main impositions of the new war
tax law, it is becoming apparent al
ready that the Increase of 1 cent an
ounce on first-class postage will make
serious raid on funds of several
of the departments. It is even possi
ble that the Emergency Board will be
called in to bolster up the declining ap
propriations of a few of the depart
ments.
The state is exempt from tax on
freight rates, passenger or Pullman
fares, deeds and certificates for sales
of state lands, express charges and
similar war taxes. Under the law also
agricultural societies which do not pay
returns to stockholders are exempt
from the amusement tax, and this will
save the state fair and numerous
county fair that receive state aid.
Some of the, state officials pointed
out today that the increase in post
age will hit a number of candidates
at the coming election a stiff jolt,
as campaigns now are carried on
largely by personal letter.
