H. H. Riddell returned last night from
Salem, where he spent most of his time
at the capitol championing the bill to
regulate the tax law and watching the
proceedings of our legislators.. While
there are many bills being introduced
amounting to simply nothing, and which
will bo doubt die a bornin', Mr. Riddell
says there is a great deal of good hard
work being done, and many important
bills will be passed. He eays prospects
for the tax bill, which was introduced by
Koberts, look encouraging, and . at
present it looks as if it will be rushed.

substantial enough, he sinks deeper and

unless work is soon begun on these
