MUST PAY UP.
Many Corporations Owe the State
Money.

According to the strict inter-
pretation of the corporation tax
law, several hundred corpor-
atoms will find their corpora e
powers susE ended to-day, accord
ing to the statements made in
recent dispatch sent out from
Salem, Saturday, unless they
pay their general license fees by
that time.
1t is said that only about three
fourths of the companies doing
business in this state have paid
their tax this year, and the last
day of the time specified for pay
ment was yesterday, August "a.
It is possible that all corporations
paid yesterday, but it is not prob
able, and it is declared that a
number of important corporations
are among those that have not
yet paid.
Section 5 of the corporation tax law
requires that the Secretary OF State file
with the State Treasurer on or before
July Is, a statement of the amount of
license fees due from each corporation.
''Within 80 days thereafter every such
corporation shall pay or cause to be paid
to the State Treasurer the license fee
hereinbefore mentioned" Failure of any
corporation to make its annual report or
pay its annual fee for 20 days after the
time specified renders the corporation
liable to fine of 800.
Section OF the law provides that mo
domestic corporation, and no foreign
corporation, joint stock company oil
association, which shall have failed to
pay the annual license fee, or any othel
tax or fee which shall have become due
and payable against it, as provided in
this act or any law of this state, shall
! be permitted to maintain any suit, action
or proceeding in any court of justice
within this state, while such delinqueucy y
shall continue
Sectioa 10 provides that plea that
any domestic corporation or foreign cor
poration, joint stock company or assoc
iation has not paid any tax or fee re
quired by any law of this state anc
which is then due and payable, m ay bt
interposed at any time before trial upoI
the merits in any action, suit or proceed
ing, and if issue be joined upon sucf
plea, the same shall be first tried. Suci
plea cannot be made at any time by the
delinquent corparat on y
1t thus appears from the language O
the statute that corporations powers
are suspended whenever tax is due anc
unpaid, but the concern is not liable to
fine until it has been delinquent 20 days
The suspension of powers operates a.
well in the case of the ordinary property
tax as in the case of the license tax, fo
the statute says, "any tax required BY
any law of this state"

A PUBLIC DEMAND.

At no time in the history of
Oregon has there been so much
railroad agitation throughout the
state as at present is in evidence.
Lack of railway facilities more
than any other one thing has
worked to the detriment of the
state and retarded progress.
This is not new to readers of the
Gazette, for while this paper has
ever been liberal in its senti-
ments, it has, nevertheless, from
time to time commented on this
particular state need.
At present there seems to be
growing a sentiment against the
Hartman system. Mr.. Harri-
man has been among the people,
broke bread and took wine with
them, but said nothing, made no
promises. His attitude in Port
land was not reassuring to the
business men of that city. There
was a vagueness about his utter
ances that gave the impression
that he desired to convey quiet
ing idea to the public, while in
reality he promised nothing.
Is the railroad history of Cali
fornia to repeat itself in Oregon?
For years our sister to the south
writhed in the grasp of the
Southern Pacific, but do as they
would the people of that section
could not free themselves of the
claws that scratched for blood.
The pound of flesh was not
enough, was not satisfying. :, In
Oregon things have not been so
bad, but the development Of the
state requires that the railroads
extend their lines.
There is at present no state in
the Union that offers so much to
railroads as does Oregon. In
Central Oregon are large areas
awaiting the advent of a rail
road. Thousands of acres OF
land are there, a portion of it
already under the plow, and the
entire product Of the country
awaits the company first build
ing there "a trade worthy any
carrier is to be had for the TAX
ing. Who will claim it?
Will Hartman take hold and
force a line here and there as ii
is needed? Did his manner OF
fndirectness when before the
people of Portland recently in.
dicate that he had plans fol
future actions favorable to the
interests Of Oregon that he die
not care to divulge? or did il
mean that his company was salts.
fed as things are and he woulc
not place it on record for any.
thing different?
Let Hartman or any othel
railroad man do as they may, the
fact remains that the people Of
the State Of Oregon are awaken
ing to a realization that upon the
question Of railroads more large
ly than any other one thing
hinges the matter of state de
velopment. The people are fas
tirIng of a policy whereby al
the benefits go in one direction
and there is a growing sentiment
IN favor Of some good, up-to-datt
railroad legislation when the Law
making body Of Oregon mex
convenes in regular session.

GOAT WENT UP IN SMOKE.

Combination Of Railroad Torpedo and
Milking Stool Too Much.
The Widow Moriarity of Melrose,
Pa, had pet goat, which was the
idol of her heart. She had nothing
else upon which to lavish her great
wealth Of affection. When asked by
her neighbors why she didn't marry,
the widow would invariably reply:
"Sure an Billie is company enough,
and he don't smoke or drink. nor
swear, an he don't stay out nights"
And the aromatic goat appeared to
enjoy the affection showered upon
him, and as he ambled along the JEFF
ferson branch tracks, picking up stray
door scrapers, railroad spikes and
couch springs, no happier animal
could be found. In an evil moment
he found railroad torpedo and swal-
lowed it. At supper time he came
home, and seeing lace curtain upon
line, ate it for dessert.
Mrs. Moriarity ran into the yard,
and seeing only the end of the curtain
in sight, threw milking stool at
Billy, hitting him squarely in the side,
when the torpedo exploded, and i'm
mediately the air was filled with
smoke, widow, goat, curtain and iron
ware. The widow was thrown over
fence, more scared than injured.
They could find but few struggling
pieces of the goat, the whiskers, the
toes of the left hind foot. The widow
placed them in herring box and bur-
led them beneath gooseberry bush.

Partisan Trees.

Paris is said to lead the world
in the culture of city trees. The
success of the French capital is due
not so much to an admirable soil
climate as to a well-organized system
of caring for the trees.
In large nurseries young trees are
grown and prepared for the Partisan
streets. The culture of the soil is
elaborate. From the very beginning
the trees are pruned and staked to
compel straight growth. By fire.

is often consulted by Wachache, the

Hens Used for HatehInu Fish,

Chinese use hens for Matching the
spawn Of fish. The method is said to
protect the spawn from those acct.
dents which very often destroy large
portion of it. Fishermen gather from
the margin and the surface of the
water all those gelatinous masses
which contain the spawn, and after
they have found sufficient quantity
they fill the shell of a fresh hens egg
which they have previously emptied,
stop up the hole, and put 1t under a
setting hen. After a certain number
of days the shell is broken in water
warmed by the sun. This done, the
young fry are soon Matched, and are
kept in pure fresh water until such
time as they are large enough to put
into the ponds with the older fish,
