Or at least that is the information given by the Bilings Gazette of last Sunday the news article concerning which; is printed in full . in another part of The Statesman o fhis morning. The writer is indebted fto the kindness o James Elvin of Dickinson, North Dakota, but form Salem resident and booster, for the copy of the paper. atf. ipivev. 111.';; A mam m The whole article is reprinted for the purpose of caljing attention to the many benefits of a beet sugar factory, feey extend far, in the farming districts and in the! city. The exhibit of this one factory at Billings for the whole period of its operations, 19 years makes up an imposing reel And that for 1924 alone is no mean showing. v Sugar, beets are a splendid succession crop. ; Thejtake little fertility from the soiL Their sugar content, Mnich chemically is sucrose, they get entirely from the air;j$rpm the winds that blow and the rains that fall. It is a compila tion of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, making one of 1 the purest of all foods. . to L j The attention of our people to the advantages of pgar beet growing and beet sugar: making cannot be too pf ten drawn or too much accentuated. .

We can get a beet sugar factory in Salenrwhen ou: teo Jsle all fully understand the many advantages of havin one, fcnd of growing the: beets here ' V That is, when we all decide that we want a , beet ugar factory. :- : ; ( .

Salem must sret a" beet sugar factory; and the matter must not be allowed t&drag! along, euner. ; It tn the house an see 'that a bill Is passed that maintains the In tegrity of, both the house bill and the senate bill. THE PENITENTIARY ; Governor, Pierce has submitted ft-list of his pardons and paroles In the penitentiary, and , it is a record of which any man has a right to be proud. 4 The peniten tiary has been the best managed of any Institution in the state, tit has been fortunate in having a high grade, capable business man ag warden. Mr. Dalrymple Is not sentimental, but he is effic ient. The penitentiary; has made remarkable progress, and; a good deal of work ' has been accom plished by the Inmates.. Not enough, however. . It will - be a healthful condition for the ; peni tentiary, when work is found ;fof very inmate, They need It worse than the state needs their work. -: A IlEAL HERETIC I Bishop Brown la spectacular, and Is making his case before the public instead of before a board. Anyone who has read the press reports the last few days knows that Bishop Brown is a danger ous man religiously, and. that he has no conception of the spiritual side of the Christian, religion. - YOUK INCOME TAX No. a i The exemptions under the rev enue act of 1924 are $1000 for tingle persons and $2500 for mar ried persons living together. 'and heads of families. In addition a $400 credit, is allowed for each person dependent upon and receiv ing his chief support from the tax payer, if such person Is under IS years of age or incapable of self support because mentally or phy sically defective. 1 The normal tax rate under the revenue act of 1924 is 2 per cent on the first $4000 of net Income In excess of the personal exemp tions, credit for dependents, etc.. 4 per cent on the next; $4000. and 6 per cent on the balance. Under the preceding, act the normal tax rate was 4 per cent on the first $4000 of net income above the exemptions and credits, and 8 per cent on the remaining net income. 3 The revenue act of . 1924 con tains a special .provision for rer duced taxes which did not appear in previous laws. v All net Income Up to $5000 is considered "earned Income."; On this amount the tax payer Is entitled to a credit of 25 per 'ceni tf $he. amoij.ntof the ax; J For example a taxpayer; single and without dependents; may have received In 1924 a salary of $ 2. 000 and from a real esate transac tion a profit of $200qi His total net income was $500jlf : Without the benefit, of the 25 Ipdr cent re duction his tax wouldjbe $80. His actual -tax is $60 Prdm his net income of $5000 he U allowed a personal exemption of $1000; the tax of 2 per cent on thfe first $4. 000 is $80, one-fourth of which, or $20, may be deducted. : For the purpose dC computing this credit, in no.casej is the earn ed net income considered to be in excess of $10,000.' A taxpayer may have received or the year 1924 a net Income frbrn salary of $20,000, but the 25 pf r, tent credit can be applied to only one-half of this amount. ' 1 1 ' ' " 44 $LT : .

" It It a great pity that the sena tors from a county like "Marion should oppose the child labor law. The people of this county are cer tainly for the children "and s our senators are the victims of people who have worked upon their- pre judices to make them believe this prevents the children from health ful occupations. It does not. , . There Is no disposition to ques tion the sincerity of our senators, but their 1ad judgment is to be deplored. The child health ques tion is one that Is coming up, and It is going to loom big. In the next five years $50,000 is to be nan 01 Ml used to, carry out child ihealth demonstration .work . In pilar ion county. This will carry jMth It an endless amount of work for the children, which shows how OUfarlon county, feels about it.

QUI BEBE DANIELS? In -DANGEROUS MONEY LIBERTY Now II I HO HID HE IS WRONG . - The governor of Washington Is very frantic about tHej ehild labor amendment.

Hia election i followed as a matter of course ' , -. He is not a representative or Washington. ,3 He is! 1 simply ; a money bag. and office adds to his pride..; If he ever knew little children, he has forlgoUen; If he ever had sympathy for them, he has. lost. it...
