IN HIS GRAVE
After Weeks Residence in Oregon
w. o. Neville Succumbs to Bright's
Disease

One week ago last Monday w o
Neville and wife, son, father and
mother, arrived in Corvallis from
Norton, Kansas. Yesterday his
remains were consigned to the
grave in Crystal Lake cemetery.
Mr. Neville had been in falling
health for a number of years, hav-
ing become afflicted with Br1ght's S
disease. He long entertained a
wish to come to Oregon, and al
though relatives and friends tried
to dissuade him from the purpose
on account of his health, he stead
fastly to the desire. stating that he
would come, even if he only lived
long enough to reach his destina-
ton. Events proved that he was
able to only accomplish the mini
mum of his desire. Monday morn
ing at six O'Clock he passed away
at the home of George w Brown,
where the family was temporarily
rooming. He was member Of
Norton lodge, No 100, A F & A M
and the fraternity OF this city at
once took charge of the remains
and rendered every service to the
bereaved family. Tuesday after
noon funeral service was conducted
at the undertaking parlors by Rev
F L Moore of the M E church, af-.
ter which the remains were con-
veyed to Crystal Lake cemetery,
where members of Corvallis lodge
No IA, A F & A NJ performed the
last service to the dead.
The circumstance of Mr. Nevi11e's
death calls for an extention of TN
usual sympathy from Our citizens.
Members of the family have not as
yet, fully decided whether or not
they will remain in Oregon or re-
turn to their home.

ITS FIRST TRIAL
1t Left Very Small Delinquent List
The New Tax Law.

The first year of experience at
tax collecting under the new law is
nearly ended. Monday was the
last day for settlement of taxes,
and all that remained unpaid at five
O'Clock that evening are now de-
1inquent, and are subject to the
penalty prescribed by law. This
is interest at twelve per cent, until
date of payment and 10 per cent
penalty. If half the tax was paid,
before the first Monday in April
and the balance remained unpaid
until after last Monday, II per cent
interest On the balance from the
first Monday in April to date of
payment, together with the penalty
of 10 per Cent will have to be paid
Fortunately, only few individ-
uals have failed to avoid the pen
alties. The delinquent list is much
smaller than usual. Whether the
condition is due to increasing
promptness Of Benton county
payers of taxes, made manifest each
year by a smaller de1inq quent list,
than that preceding, or whether
the new law has stimulated pay
ments is not certain. That the
first influence has had something
to do with it, is true. Many also
believe that the new law has ma
terially assisted in bringing about
the result.
The last few days of the paying
made times lively at the sheriff S
Office. VII him two or
three weeks nearly 800 receipts
have been written by the sheriff
AS the case with lastspring's col1ec-
tions, the receipts had to be divided
and subdivided into something like
"a different funds, entailing a vast
amount Of tedious work, and invo1-
wing an intricate system of book
keeping. The total number of re-
ceipts taken out up to Monday
noon was 2,I83. Several thousand
dollars in taxes were collected. Of
delinquent taxes, including double
assessments and errors, there will
probably be less than $4,000.
There are those who believe that
the new law with the rebate elm
mated and a few other minor
changes would be very good ar
rangement. Some think that the
period for final payment should be
extended to the first Monday in
November. Ali agree that the
principle of permitting payment of
at least portion of the taxes late
in the fall, after crops are harvested
and marketed, instead of requiring
all in the spring time when farmers
generally have but little if any
ready money at hand, is very de-
sirab1e.

Lost Tickets Found.
Some Corvallis lad is doubtless
wretched. Eleven season foot ball

thousand gallons, and the whole

They tell it that youth out at
college was taken sniping the other

ried bicycle lamp so the snipe
could see how to get into his sack,
Out in the stiffness of the night
and not far from the ghostly ssones
in Crystal Lake cemetery, the
youth from Possum fiat kept lone
1y vigil until II o'clock. without
capturing a single snipe.
