CORPORATION TAX
MAY YIELD $4O,OOO,OOO

WASHINGTON. l.. c., March 21.-Esti-
mates made by Treasury officials now are
that the revenue this year from the cor
poration tax will far exceed the amount
Secretary MacVeagh originally thought
would be derived from that source. some
of them putting II as high as S4O,OOO. .OOO
This estimate is based on the returns up
to this time They indicate larger
amount of net income over the 5000 ex-
empton than was at hrst thought would
he the case. Returns have been received
from about 100000 corporations and when
the delinquents are all in Il is believed the
total number will approximate $4,000.
For the purpose of examining the re-
turns preparatory TO levying the assess
ments. a force of SO clerks from the vari-
GUS branches of the Treasury service have
been designated for duty under the Com
missioner of Internal Revenue The as
sessments must be paid before June 30.

Editorial
Opinion
They Deserve It.

They Deserve It.
Dover Republican.
In the memorial which we, publish
on our first page, Senator dupont
gives some local history which will be
read with interest
Not only from a historical stand
roint however, has this paper interest
for Delawareans, for IL shows the ef-
fort being made by Senator dupont
to secure justice for Delaware soldiers,
who have been too long ignored by
the Government.
Senator DUPONT makes it very plain
that the members of the Fifth and
Sixth Delaware Regiments did good
service for the Government, much OF
it without pay of any sort, and he calls
attention TO this service in "a manner
that it has never before been pre-
sented, and IL is to be hoped that JUS
tice will at last be accorded the sur
vivors of these regiments and their
families
Senator dupont points out that there
are now probably about 400 survivors
Of the two Delaware regiments and
he says
They are all full of years and many
of them exceedingly infirm and I'm very
destitute circumstances. earnestly
hope that Congress will not be deaf to
their appeals and will be moved by a
sense of justice and equity to enact
such legislation as will put them on
a pensionable status under the act of
June q, 1890"
A point in the memorial also that
speaks well for little Delaware is the
fact as explained by Senator dupont
that out of total population of mill
tary age of 10000 Delaware sent to
the front nearly 5000 men, while at
least 900 Delawareans were represent
ed in the regiments of other States.
II is doubtful if another State in the
union made a showing to compare with
this when the proportions are taken
into consideration.
Senatr dupont will earn the thanks
Of all Delawareans If he succeeds in
having the survivors Of the Fifth ana
Sixth listed on the pension roll.

CONSERVATION CONVENTIONS.

THROUGHOUT the. Western states many
important conventions have been
held to urge conservation of our natural re-
sources and agricultural development The
Minnesota Congress convened as a result OF a
call issued by Governor Eberhart, who intends
to make Minnesota the leader in a movement
which is meeting with Widespread response.
Some weeks ago Missouri held land and in
dustrial Congress for the purpose of developing
the Ozark regions Delegates from 40 counties
in the Ozarks went TO the Springfield Congress,
some in special coaches and others in special
trains. Schools were dismissed so that the chill
drcn might 90 to the meeting. One village sent
a carload of apples to advertise the fruit raising
possibilities of the region. The commercial
bodies of St. Louis and Kansas City were largely
represented and the attendance at the conference
on one day reached $4,000 Wisconsin has
issued a call for convention similar to that Of
Minnesota, and Illinois and Nebraska have taken
like action.
This movement in the West has prompted some
OF the Eastern newspapers to ask why cannot
such conventions be held in the Eastern states,
for If the West can profit by such gatherings
there is no valid reason why the East should not
do So
Such convention might stir up considerable
interest in Delaware No state has better oppor-
tunities than has Delaware Recently one man
aroused interest throughout the state in apple
growing There has been much agitation of the
problem OF good roads. Sussex county, having
taken forward step for good roads by electing
a county engineer is now considering the drain
age problem. Each county has something
which should be thought of with view to
improvement.
A convention in Delaware might result in
accomplishing much good. The State Board Of
Agriculture and the Board of Trade in this city
together with Boards of Trade in the towns
could act together in having a convention to
consider what should be done for the advance
ment and progress of Delaware 1t is a fine
thing to have the people of the state get to-
gether and consider these matters.
The subject is brought to mind by the recently
issued Arbor Day proclamation of Governor
Pennewill. Arbor Day is but a phase of con-
servation, of the general movement. Delaware
is in need of instruction in these matters. Dur
ing the past year beautiful shade trees have been
destroyed in some towns and conservation con-
vention might throw light in some places where
darkness on these subjects reigns supreme and
unchalenged.

have put his case somewhat in this
fashion, Commodore, you know that I
have been long associated with this lit
tie railroad, in fact. from the time it
was first operated. I have strong per-
sonal pride i'm it, Now, I do not care
anything about the pay, but / am sure
you will appreciate my feeling when I
tell you that It would be very gratifying
to me to serve under you in some nom
inally important post in the railroad
That way of putting his case would have
won the Commodore over completely. and
he would undoubtedly have found place
for the man that would have gratifed his
pride in his old property.
But this man didn't so about IT this
way, and instantly the Commodore's s
whimsical side was aroused He looked
his caller over for a full I-inute. Then
he spoke:
" SO you say that 1 will find I can't
get along without you. Well, supposing
you We're TO die tomorrow, what would
1 do them?"
Well Commodore was the hesitat-
ing reply in that case, I suppose, you'd
have to find someone to take my place.
Well snorted the Commodore, as he
turned to his desk. LOU were dead last

F President Taft is desirous Of paying proper
attention to Delaware, he will appoint
Delawarean to be Collector of Internal Revenue
for this district. Maryland has held this place
for some years and in all fairness and Justice il
should now go to Delaware. There are two Repub-
can Senators in Delaware. There are none in
Maryland. Wise politics it would be to give
Delaware this place, and when the President
considers the matter in the judicial light for
which he is noted, we think he will recognize the
claims that Delaware has for this position.
And the President could not find in Maryland
a man more competent for the office than Dr.
Marshall who has been indorsed by the leaders
