tax.
The tax applies only to estates with
an appraised value of more than $10,000
and the tax is to be collected only upon
the excess of $5000 that may go to any
one person. In the case of an inheritance
by an uncle, aunt, nephew or niece the
tax will apply to the excess of $2000
passing to any one person. On bequests
to relatives farther removed or to
strangers the tax will apply to the excess
of $500 passing to any one person.
A majority of the estates that come
within the jurisdiction of the comity
courts of this state are appraised at
$10,000 or less. Inheritance amounting
to more than $5000 are comparatively
few, and when that amount has been
deducted for each heir the remainder, in
most cases, will not form the basis for
a very large tax.
The inheritance tax law' applies to all
property coming within the jurisdiction
of the Probate Courts of this state which
shall pass by will or statutes of in
heritance, or by deed or gift in contem
plation of death or intended to take
effect after the death of the grantor,
gifts to charitable institutions excepted.

O regon C ity , May 18.—W. (». Howell,
of Portland, today filed contests against
82 of the famous Hayes’ timber claims
in Tillamook County. Charles E. Haves
some time ago tiled contests about 90 of
these claims, but the Department of the
Interior has decided adversely in about
50, leaving 40 cases now pending at
Washington. J anifir contests were sub
sequently brought against many of these
cianns by G. 0 Nolan and W. J. Law
and the same have not been decided.
Howell asks that the applications ot
Hayes et al.be diss missed as fradulent
and void and that in the meantime no
decree in favor of any of the contestants
be allowed until he. Howell, has a hear
ing in the proceeding.
In contesting the title to these lands
Howell has prepared a printed form in
which are set forth allegations of con
spiracy and collusion between the par
ties who have figured in the contests up
to the present time in an alleged effort
to defraud the Government ol these valu
able timber lands. The contestant al-
leges that in each of the 82 cases, the
entry made was traudlent, collusive and
speculative and not in good faith, that
the entry men never went upon said land
prior to making his entry nor did he
personally examine the land as required
l»y law; that the said entrynian, before
making application, conspired with one
