The Washington grange held its

factory state Of things In the national
grange. as was to be expected. 1t was
resolved to adopt the Michigan Patron
as the official organ and ask the nation
nj grange to do the same; also to de-
mand an accounting from the treasurer
of the national grange with special ref
erence to the money that has been
spent and is now being spent on the
national grange organ. Other resolu-
lions authorize the master to endeavor
to arrange for conferences with other

influence of the whole Order in its ia.
vor. Plans were laid for founding a
"state wide cooperative movement"
which is hoped to prove attractive to
''those farmers who are DESTROYS of
gaining financial benefit from their
membership" In our opinion, people
should go into such fraternities in
order to unite forces for the common
good, not in the hope of getting direct
ly back a certain number Of dollars
per annum themselves. Other resolu.
lions favored direct legislation to
which the farmers of the northwest
appear to be committed.
The report of the secretary showed a
gain In membership over last year of
1000; 101 new oranges were organized
during the year at a cost Of $2.750. Re
ceipts from dues were 5000.

HERlTANCE
TAX BEING
COLLECTED


Guthrie Okla April is--For the
quarter ending March 81. 1910, Charles
McCafterty. treasurer Of Oklahoma
county. has reported to State auditor
AZ. r Trapp collections Of inheritance
tan in his county amounting TO $l.-
S3G97 A cheek for that amount was
inclosed with report and was indorsed
by the state auditor 10 the order OF te.
state treasurer
The report shows that this amount
was paid o the county treasurer by the
executors Of administrators of five
estates probated in Oklahoma county
The largest payment was by William
r.. McGinnis. executor OF the estate
ofGBettv McGinnis. who paid inherit
ance tax amounting TO Sl,33S35; the
estate Of A. MI Wycoff paid S2l0.7l.
the estate Of c. S. Mckenzie Sl4e6l
the estate Of Mary Couch sl2Ll2 the
estate Of Francis J, Eagan s17lS
This is the second largest remit
tance received By state treasurer
under the inheritance tax law: the
largest having amounted to something
more than $4,000 from a single estate
in Murray county.
Although the Inheritance tax law
was adopted by the first session OF the
state legislature and has been in ef-
feet since that time, the payment Of
taxes have only begun within the last
few months. as under the law. the ad-
ministrators or executors are given
eighteen months from the date Of
death OF the decedent before a penalty
attaches for the non-payment Of the
tax This provision is made in order
that the executor or administrator may
have ample time to settle up the es-.
tate and be in position TO know exact
ly what the sum will be which goes
to each heir or legatee in order that
the tax due may be properly com
puted
1T is impossible at this time, to de-
termine the amount OF taxes which
win be collected annually under the
inheritance tax law said State Audi
tor Trapp, but from the reports al
ready received in this office from the
different county judges, am Of the
opinion that the receipts for this year
wiK amount TO $4,000 or $4,000 AS
the state grows in wealth and density
OF population. the returns from the i'm
heritance tax law will be correspond /
ingly increased and in my judgment
at no distant date it viii be found to
be the most productive of any Of the
special state taxes
There is now in two estate already
reported to this office taxes amount
ing to more than $4,000 that are due
the state
