WILSON ACCEP1S LINCOLN NEWS ITEMS WORLD’S DOINGS PRES1DENI MEMORIAL AS GIFT TO NATION OF CURRENT WEEK About Oregon >xxc:o:o:v O f General Interest Brief Resume of General News from All Around the Earth. UNIVERSAL HAPPENINGS IN A NUTSHOI Hodgenville, K y .— President Wilson came to Kentucky Monday to pay hom age to the memory o f Lincoln. The President accepted for the Federal government the log cabin in which Lincoln was born in a speech devoted to an eulogy o f the C ivil war Presi dent. Standing on a hill topped by a magnificent granite memorial building housing the Lincoln cabin, he praised Lincoln as the embodiment o f demo cracy. “ W e are not worthy to stand here unless we ourselves be indeed and in truth real Democrats and servants of mankind, ready to give our very lives for the freedom and justice and spirit ual exaltation o f the great nation which shelters and nurtures u s," he said. The non-political character o f the program was emphasized by the men tion o f the name o f Charles E. Hughes, the Republican nominee, by one o f the speakers in g ivin g the list o f directors o f the Lincoln Farm as sociation. What was said to be one o f the larg est crowds ever gathered in this part of Kentucky came to Lincoln farm in special trains and automobiles and on foot. The President and his party were taken from the station to the farm in automobiles, accompanied by a troop o f I-ouisville police. On the way the President stopped and laid a wreath on a statue o f Lincoln. A t the farm he walked up a long flight o f broad granite stairs lined with thousands o f rheering persons to the Lincoln memorial building at the top. Inside he examined silently the one- room cabin made o f rough logs and mud and then wrote his name in the register. Ex-Governor Joseph W. Folk, of Missouri, president of the Lincoln Farm association, presided at the fo r mal ceremonies. Robert J. Collier, vice president o f the association, gave the g ift of the deed to the farm to Secretary Baker, representing the War department. Under i Oregon & California Grant Land Taxes May Be Limited Eugene— George M. Brown, attor ney general o f Oregon, intimated at a meeting o f representative* o f the Ore gon and California land grant counties held in Eugene Wednesday night that there is s probability that the Federal government in the payment o f back taxes on Oregon and California lands may take the position that the taxing power o f the state was limited to $2.60 an acre and that assessments based on the relative value o f other lands in the counties were not valid. He said the collection of the back taxes was s subject o f great concern and he recommended that the counties take steps to procure the payment as speedily as possible. While in Washington last spring A t torney General Brown said he consult ed the secretary o f the interior depart ment and the secretary indicated the view that aa congress had provided for the sale o f the lands by the railroad company at $2.50 an acre the lands possibly could not be assessed for a greater amount. A t the time, as the representatives o f the state o f Oregon, the speaker said, he had held out for the payment o f the taxes on the full value. Attorney General Brown cited the provision o f the act o f congress revest ing title to the Oregon and California land in the government, providing the taxes shall be paid as determined by the secretary o f the interior depart ment. He commended the plan to form a federation o f the land grant counties for the purpose o f “ having these lands sold, the timber sold and getting the lands back on the tax ro ll.” R eferring to the action o f congress he reviewed the history o f the fo rfe i ture suits. He said that when the lit igation was first suggested he auviBed against it, fearing the creation of greater reserves within the state and the removal of the land from taxation. He called attention to the act o f the legislature providing for the forfeiture proceeding and asserted "th e people of the state o f Oregon, through the legis lature, invited congress to do the thing that it has done.” C o p y r ig h t . 1016.
