The tax commission will meet August 15. Budgets for th,- state institutions have not been filed. The biggest budget so far filed is for the state military de partment, including the state police.

The secretary of state referred the matter to the attorney general because tho records show that Mr. Collier at the same time was draw ing his full salary as deputy district attorney. .

The visit of the distinguished eom- ami? lu an lii , r," ii i 1 1 1. nao 11 ru n. Ti that may have far reaching consequen ces, according to Robert C. Paulus, manager of the Salem Fruit Union. Of the 35 men who saw this part of the Willamette valley for the first time, hardly half of them had ever imagined there was such a productive country aa that surroiaidSag Salem, judging from their general expressions of surprise when shown the Rosedale prune orchards and the Polk county hills. IFew of the leartied agriculturists knew that in Marion county alone there is 1,000 acres of English walnuts soon to come into bearing. The southern California fellows didn"t know that Oregon co'uld produco English walnuts. And a very few of the men from either Washington or Oregon or California knew that in Polk and Marion counties alone there is already 6,000 acres of prunes in bearing and more than 7,000 aeree that will soon be producing. Their surprise at what 'this, county can produce was greater than ever when they were shown about the Hunt can nery where there is packed ready for shipment more than five car loads of canned goods with an assurance that the Oregon Packing company had can ned several million of cans this year and that -the Salem King's Product company had one of the largest gov ernment contracts awarded in the west for evawir&ted notatoes. Tho California, men as well as those from British Columbia were wonderfully inmrPRxoiI with the nroductivenftta of the valley surrounding Salem and a? the same time with the low price with which the best of prune tracts could be purchased. It was noted that when a California man talks of fruit pro ducing tracts, he thinks, in thousands of dollars, while in this valley, it is in hnndieds. It was observed that the California man was a natural born booster and believed in irrigation, while tho Willamette valley product was neither strong for his home coun try nor a believer in irrigation. f ERS GiVE TEMPORARY RELIEF BUT HEAT NOT OVER Philadelphia And Richmond ; Swelter-More Heat Is In dicated.

Salem Man Arrested On Charge Of Burglary Constable Percy M. Vainey yesterday afternoon arrested Will 8. Singleton, a member of the Salem fire department, on a charge of burglary in the night time. He was taken to the city jail, and this afternoon arraigned before Justice Daniel Webster to plead.

The revolvers were a Colt, a Smith and Wesson and a H. & B. double action. As this was the night that Thuiber and Thompson escaped from the penitentiary it was presumed for some time that the revolvers had J-een stolen by the con victs. Later Constable Varney went 'nto the case and on a complaint being sworn out, arrested Singleton yesterday afternoon. One of the guns stolen, of which. Hauser Bros, had the anmbcr. was purchased a few days ago by Var ney and it was upon this evidence the eomplaint was made.
