"I carry it always," I said simp-
lyy for he had so uncannily im
pressed me with the sense of men
caing danger at the time ho had
presed the scarah. into my hand,
that I had never been separated

' "See. that you. don't,"' he re
torted. And then he bent j low
in a farewell bow in keeping with
with the character of the South
American grandee he was imper
sonatlng so cleverly, and stalked
away. i
THE ORDEAL BEGINS.
How he managed to hide his
conspicuous person on the statipn
platform or in the train, I do not
know. That he was on the train
I was sure, and the knowledge
heartened me somewhat on the
seemingly interminable trip in. the
dimly lighted coach of the jerk
water trail) leading to the village
of Caldwin. . '
The three reporters wlio had
interviewed nxe in tbe Sag Harbor
farmhouse' had seats near to me,
but contented themselves with the
perfunctory ' greeting they had
given me on the Long Island train
But! I knew they would be keenly
watching the meeting between my
husband and I, and when the train
drew up at Caldwin and descend
ing to the! platform I saw Dicky
advancing toward me I took a firm
grip upon! my nerves and will
power for the ordeal of greeting
him. .

INCOME TAX

the earnings of corporations, part
nerships and trusts, whether such
earning were distributed or noL
The act would embody safe
guards to cover the liability, ot
trusts, etc., wRh proper exemp
tion for banks, now taxed in the
full legal way.
The act would not tax corporat
ions as that 'method results in
double taxation, but would tax
the . real earning of the corpora
tion to the individual and require
the corporation to file a return,
as it does with the federal govern
ment, and to show its, earning in
Oregon and its stockholders with
their holdings, with all informa
tion at the source.
The act would allow all usual
deductions, except property taxes
paid in Oregon, which, would be
deductable by neither partnership.
fiuciary corporation nor individ
ual, but, the individual taxpayer
would be entitled to apply all the
Oregon property tax paid by him,
and. his pro rata of any Oregon
property tax paid by any partner
ship, corporation or trust jffom
credit against the income, tax as
sessed. It would also follow a
reciprocal offset to a non-resident
taxpayer taxed on income in the
state in which be resides provid
ing bis state allowed residents of
this state a similar credit.
This law- as proposed would
cost not to exceed three end one
half per cent of the net collections
annually to put into effect and ad
minister.
The administration' features
would be similar to the old law
but with weak features strength
ened and would charge the tax
commissioner solely with its ad
ministration with a board of ap
peal consisting of the Attorney
General and the state tax commis
sion. .V ;' '.
It would provide for two depu
ty commissioners to be appointed
by the commissioners with the us
ual provisions for agents, inspect
ors and clerical help. The net
collections to reduce: the state
levy and the state levy ! to be
limited to one mill unless special
ly authorized by the people. One
mill is left for emergency. No
state levy would be needed. The
payment of all the tax to be made
to the commissioner with a peri
odic accounting to the treasurer
and a balance at all times for re
funds, i : I
The plan would produce rather
more than $2,000,000. You say
how can it when it allows as an
offset the entire Oregon property
tax paid. But it does not quite
do that. It is framed so that un
til a business earns more than
eight percent on its taxable In
vestment, that business can only,
pay the property ", tax, as levied,
but when the earnings of that
business exceed eight per cent of
its taxable investment, the Income
tax begins to take off bis profit.
But It goes much farther than
that. It recognizes the "fact that
the man with an income,., but
with no investment !inf taxable
property, either personally or
through a corporation or partner
ship, derives the same benefits
from our schools, roads and insti
tutions and the same; protection
from out government as the prop
erty owner. ; But the property
pwner is building up j our state
while the receiver, of income from
other sources of Oregon ! is living
off our resources and giving noth
ing in return.' j i ! 1
This law makes htm ; pay his
proper proportion, no more and
no less. No law can be abolutely
perfect, but what fault can any
reasonable person find with a law
that not only takes double tax
burden from the overtaxed prop
erty and measures a ' man's tax
by his ability to pay. i . .
Money cannot be legislated into
can be pocket but ! legislation
can. be . formed , that does not at
tempt to take money 1 from an
empty pocket. !
From the income tax statistics.
it is definitely shown i that there
is sufficient income within tbe
State of Oregon, that Is not pay-
ins Ha just portion of tax, to
make this law produce rather
more than two million dollars to
the state. - I

Neither are they high on the

person. Why? Because $750 is an
income sufficient to. maintain ' a
j single person' and a single person

pays no property tax should pay
his state $25 annually and can
well afford: to do so., A single

denial i has accumulated $5000

must pay $120 in taxes. Why
penalize thrift or fine the man
who is building up your commun
ity? Is It not better to encourage
th community builder by taking.
some of the burden from him and
putting it on the man who Is not?
The rate is not high on the man
with an income of five thousand
dollars.; The Income tax on that
amount, with no property offset
allowing him $$000 exemption as
a married, tnan. is but $300. The
country builder who has aJnet in
come of $5i)00 would have an in
vestment "In . his community . of
$10,000 taxable property and be
paying more than $100. taxes. Can
we afford to penalize the best.citr
izen we have by saying, through
our tax. system, because, you nave
made ; our i community a better
place to live in. because you have
built up our schools and churches
and made I living safe through
governmental functions, you must
pay all the cost of mattttaing those
institutions?
When the late income tax law
was passed isome, farsighted legis
lators tried to have a real prop
erty tax offset inserted and en
deavered tp have corporations ex
empted., But having no statistics
available, they could not show
that such a plan would produce
sufficient tax. The cry was also
raised against exemptions of cor
porations with the mistaken idea
that corporations an.d individuals
are separate entitles in fact as
well as in law. Such Is not the
case. A corporation is simply an
artificial person made up of sever
al individuals, and when you tax
mo luuivmuai ucoa income, you
taxi the corporation. Business can
not stand double taxation nor do
we want to discourage corpora
tions. Without combinations of
capital no j large undertaking , is
possible. "Vere it not fori corpor

Editorials of the People
: TRAPPING BEAVEIt
Editor Statesman:"
I would like to say a few words
in regard to the beaver question
which is before the .legislature.
' I have lived in. a community
where there were ' beaver for the
past twenty-four years and last
winter and this winter have been
trying my hand at -trapping them
Like most of the other fellows
who tried it I was a green hand
at the game and had, a lop to
learn. ' .:,-.,-. -, .
During the trapping season of
1923 and "1934 ,. I icaught- seven
beaver, five of them out of ; one
big colony which I know had been
there for twenty-four years, there
were still beaver left there when
the trapping season closed. After
the close ot the trapping season
the tenant en the land tore out
the dam and was able to keep it
out and as a result I will venture
to say that he had at leapt fifteen
acres of good pasture ' land all
spring, summer and fall which
bad not been out of water in the
past eighteen years.- During the
present trapping season I have
not been able to find a sign of
beaver anywhere near that old
beaver house which is the largest
one I have ever seen. Where did
those beaver which were left go
to? : From another beaver house
which I know has been there for
twenty years or more I caught a
beaver last inter and this winter
also.-! -' - "'--:' ; v : :: , -'"
A "friend 'of mine and I trap in
a close vicinity to each other. To
date he has not caught a beaver
this j winter although he caught
some last winter and there are
beaver signs where he is trapping
now.1 I know of old beaver trap
pers from Canada and from other
states of this country who have
been1 trapping bere the past two
winters and are unable to catch
our Oregon beaver.
Beaver are about as intelligent
as the ordinary run of human be
ings.' If two or three are taken,
from one colony in quick succes
sion ; the other members of " the
colony will move pronto. From
the 20th of last November until
January 25th I was not able to
find a fresh beaver sign on my
trapping grounds.' Since the 8th
of this month I have been seeing
fresh signs there and have caught
one 56 pound! beaver and 'one
coming two year old. Are the
beavers anywhere,' near extermin
ated? ' Let's, see. v
During the 1923 and 1924 seas
on I did not catch a kitten or
coming two year old beaver. .My
friend who traps oh part of the
same water with roe did not catch
a kitten and caught one coming
to year old." To .date this winter
I have caught six beavers, one a
coming two year old accldently
caught a kitten on a muskrat set.
Where ha.ve all the beaver kittens
raised in the spring of 1923 and
15)24 gone to.? . We have not
caught them out of our beaver
water. Waters which were. Infest
ed with beaver; two years ago are
still infested and small lakes and
creeks which were' not! infested
two years- ago are today- infested.
Is the beaver a nuisance or
not? Let's see. He builds dams
in the ditchee of drainage projects
and puts to naught the labor and
capital of man. He builds dams
