SETTLERS THREATEN
TO DESTROY DAM
Fatal Floods Reported on the
Rainy River.

Fort Francis, Ont, May 3.-The
rapidly rising waters of Rainy river
are endangerirg a large territory near
this stream The waters are pouring
into the Lake of the Woods. Home
steaders all about the shores of that
body of water are suffering heavy

Five persons are reported dead.

A quarter section of the finest land
in the Northwest, located at the mouth

ENDORSES TAFT
ADMINISTRATION
Roosevelt Said to Have Done
So in Recent Letters.
NOT SEEKING ANY OFFICE

Declared Ex-President Would Not Ac-
cept denomination for the Presi-
dency and Is Not Candidate for
Depews Seat in the 5enate-Favors
William Loeb, Jr., to Succeed
Hughes as Governor of New York.
Washington, May 3-In letters
which Theodore Roosevelt is alleged
to have written to President Taft, Sem
ator Root and William Loeb, Jr., it is
said by the Washington Post, the for
mer president thoroughly endorses
the Taft administration, favors Mr.
Loeb to succeed Governor Hughes of
New York and indicates that his de-
cision to remain in private life is
FINAL and unalterable. The colonel
will not even be a candidate to sue
ceed Chauncey M. Depew in the SEN
ate and much less would he desire any
other office.
1t is said also the former president
will in no sense be candidate for the
presidency in 1912. On the contrary,
is his conviction that the reelection
of President Taft is the Republican
party's duty. While Colonel Roose-
welt believes that a fight within the
party, when it is confined to opinions
of legislation, may be healthful, he
does not favor degree of insurgency
that threatens to disrupt the party at
the polls and will probably deliver
campaign in the West urging the re-
turn of Republicans to congress.
His Conservation Speech.
When Colonel Roosevelt speaks be-
fore the National Conservation con-
gress in ST. Paul in September, it is
said he will declare himself again for
the policies for which he has always
stood, but will insist that the work be
pressed forward without making con-
servation a pivot for political expedi-
snts.
In a word, former President Roose-
welt, before seeing Clifford Pinchot in
Europe and after, has expressed him
self as convinced that President Taft
has been working hard and conscien-
tiously to carry out the policies which
were started during the Roosevelt ad-
ministration and has given to the Taft
administration his whole approval.
The most intimate friends of Mr..
Roosevelt in Washington say the story
that President Taft has received let
ters on political topics from Mr.. Roose-
welt is a bold fake. No one has re-
political conditions.

Estimate of Receipts From
Corporation Tax.
FEW TRYING TO EVADE

Force of Forty Trained Accountants
Engaged in Verifying the Reports of
the orporations-Estimate That
the Earnings of Concerns Affected
by the Law viii Aggregate Four
Billion Dollars.
Washington, May 3.-The corpora
tion tax is yielding so per cent more
than was estimated by treasury Off
cials Secretary MacVeagh stated
that he now looks for $4,000, 900
from this levy. This represents a to-
tai net earning of the corporations of
the United States of $4,000, 900 900.
The number of corporations assessed
is 100000.
The law exempts from taxation $5,-
600 of earnings, SO that the returns to
the treasury indicate an everage earn
ing last year by each of the 100000
corporations of $4,000 This takes
in all the life insurance companies,
the banks, steamship companies, rail-
ways and all big industrial corpora
tions, as well as the numerous small
commercial concerns doing business
under a corporate form.
A force of forty trained accountants
is busily at work verifying the re.
turns of the corporations. These men
he off Of ho
several auditors of the treasury, and
are thoroughly competent to deter
mine whether the returns are honest
or fraudulent.
Four Billions in Earnings.
At the present rate of approving the
returns Secretary MacVeagh estimates
that the earnings will reach the enor.
nous total of $4,000 100000. When the
tax was first proposed Secretary Mac.
Veagh informed congress that a l per
cent levy would yield $25,000,O00.
The tax is payable on or before
June 80. Some of the corporations
have already paid. The government
has received 100000 in cash from cor
porations that want to close out theiI
accounts.
Assistant Secretary Hills has
charge of the active work of collecting
this tax. He says that with compare
lively few exceptions the corporations
are making no attempt to evade the
law. There have been some instances
of manifest errors and other cases Of
bold attempts to avoid payment. Fol
example, a number OF corporations
have deducted dividends that were
paid from their earnings under tht
law. These concerns have been not1
fed that the earnings subject to the
l per cent tax should include divi
dends.

Carmel MISSION
Will BE REBUILT
James A. Murray, Millionaire of
Monterey, Will Restore 1t
Inside and Out

Those who believe in preserving the
old landmarks of California, and more
especially those who have taken a spe-
cial hand in endeavoring to keep the
old missions from falling to decay,
will be pleased to learn that the Car
mel mission not only will be rebuilt,
but will be restored inside and out to
its former grandeur by James Murray,
the millionaire clubman, whose sum
mer home, the Hacienda, overlooking
Monterey bay, is one of the show places
of the county.
Since HIS purchase of the place for
merly owned by Hugh Tevis and pre-
sented by him to his bride, Miss Cor
nelia Baxter of Denver, now Mrs Hart
Mckee, Murray has been most generous
in donating funds for any proposed
improvement for the public good He
has aided, materially by his public
spiritedness In the growth of Mon
terey and Pacific Grove, and this late
move ION his part is on a par with his
other charities throughout the county.
Murray approached the proper au-
thorities some time ago with the prop
osltlon at his personal expense to re-
viye the mission to all its former glory,
and steps will be begun at once under
his direction TO carry out the original
plans of Father Junipero Sierra, found
er of the mission, shortly after the
discovery of Monterey bay. No ex-
pense will be spared in paintings,
vestments or altar linen; everything.
in fact, to the minutest details will
be looked into, as well as the neces-
sary replastering, reprinting and re-
painting.
The Martin family, which owns the
adjoining acres of land, not to be out
done in generosity, has donated a few
acres of its rich farming land to afford
the mission an access of its own to
the outer world. BY this arrange
ment not only will a good avenue be
provided as an approach to the famous
old church, but the immediate sur
rounding land will be cultivated as in
the early days of the padres. and ar
rangements will be made for holding
regular services there.
Murray is the capitalist who recently
purchased 500 acres of land in the Ell
Cajon valley and 400 near San Diego,
with 40 miles right of way, in antici
patton of the rush of immigrants that
he expects will follow the opening of
the Panama canal
