		PER CURIAM

		Taxpayer appeals from a judgment of the Oregon Tax
Court that affirmed the Department of Revenue's assessment of
personal income tax against taxpayer for the 1991 tax year. 
Taxpayer contends that the gain that he realized upon the
exercise of a stock option given to him by his employer was not
taxable in Oregon, because he no longer was an Oregon resident at
the time he exercised the option.

		This court has considered each of taxpayer's supporting
legal arguments and concludes that none is well taken.  An
explanation of our reasons for affirming the Tax Court's decision
unlikely would benefit the bench, bar, or public.

		The judgment of the Tax Court is affirmed.
