on
' Washington, April 22. A tax on
,tl stock exchange transactions equal
" to the brokers commission hag been
igtKi on tentatively oy republican
members of the house ways and
- means committee as one of the. new
Mes for raising money for the sol
' iin bonus legislation. ' -
Three other levies for raising the
money similarly have been 'adopted j
Dy the republicans, tnese are a one
percent levy on the final sales to con
sumers, a new levy on incomes, prob
ably in excess of $3000 and an In
crease of approximately 15 percent of
(listing taxes on tobacco and cigars.
These four forms of taxes would
remain in effect two years and the
republicans estimate that they would
net about 11,600,000,000 for soldier
relief. They will be incorporated in
the legislation to be presented in the
house for adoption May 3.
Committeemen predicted that the
four fold plan of taxation would not
be changed.
.. Committeemen declared that re
gardless of the form, the taxation ul
timately would be borne by the con
sumer. They estimated that more
than seventy exchanges, including
Wall Street, the Chicago board of
trade and the New Orleans cotton ex
change, would be affected by the tax
en stork transactions.

Fruit Crop This
Year Depends on
I Weather-Lewis
"the present season's fruit crop,"
said C. I. Lewis, editor of the Oregon
Grower, a monthly paper published in
the interest of he Oregon Growers' Co
operative association, "largely depends
upon the condition ,'of the weather
during the nest two oV three weeks. If
during that time favorable climatic
conditions prevail In Oregon, there
will be at least 60,000,000 bushels of
fruit harvested for the commercial
.trade." Mr. Lewis has irlven the fi-nit
question a great deal of study and con
sideration and seems to have very op.
timistlc ideas about Oregon's future re

the theory of the police is that Haran

say that the shooting was accidental.
A story in circulation to the effect that

by the officers.

LOSS NOT AS EXTENSIVE
AS REPORTED SAYS JONES
A careful investigation of the logan
berry situation In the valley reveals
the fact that the tardy growers are
the ones who will derive the greatest
returns from their yards this season.
They who failed to train the vines be
fore the snow and freeze, asserts
Seymour Jones, found them uninjured
when the snow departed, and as a re
sult they win bear heavy. Mr. Jones
does not encourage the negligence, oi
course, which proved, to be his gain
tnts year, but he claims his crop oi
berries were not injured while others
in the vicinity of Salem who took
special pains to train the vines after
last year's harvestt.wlll be heavy losers
as a result.
When he is not busy with politics
Representative Jones gives earnest
consideration to this favorite vocation
