GROSS RECEIPTS
TAX WILL Be PAID
State Officials Expect Little Trouble
Collecting From Corpora
tions This Year.

Guthrie. Okla, Aug. PA. d. Hum
barger. special tax clerk Of the state
auditors office. has begun the ooIIee-
ton OF the annual gross receipts tax
which is levied against all public SER
vice corporations in the state Mr..
Humbarger today sent out 500 blanks
upon which corporations which owe the
TAX are 10 make their returns.
The Postal Telegraph and Cable
company Is the largest corporation
which has thus far rendered state
ment The total gross receipts Of that
company for the fiscal year ending
June so. 1910. were s6s6.65775. OF
which y6.555.2s was collected from Ok
lahoma business and upon which the
company paid gross receipts tax Of
s1s1.10. The tax paid by that company
last year was sl0s.01 upon gross re
celpts from its Oklahoma business Of
s5,s0o.54. Seven other public service
corporations have already remitted the
tax
The total gross receipts taxes re
turned in Oklahoma last year amount
ed to s.s2f64. OF which s5.5s243 Is
delinquent. The railroads contested the
tax in the federal courts and did not
pay. but il is estimated that had they
paid the tax it would have amounted
to $3.50, 900 on the railroads alone. The.
railroads are not included in the new
gross receipts law enacted last winter.
as the collection or taxes from rail-
roads is provided for in special Law
providing for the collection OF taxes
from railroads upon q gross earning
basis.
The gross receipts Law as II existed
last year vas defective in that Il did
not provide the fund into which the
taxes collected by that method should
be paid. II is likely. therefore. that the
taxes still delinquent from last year
under the old gross receipts tax Law
cannot be collected. II is believed that
the Law is now perfected SO that all the
taxes due under il can be collected and
that the state wi'I realize in the neigh
borhood Of s5000o this year from the

TAFT IS TIRED Of
NEW YORK FIGHT
Believes Leaders Close to Roosevelt
Know His Attitude-wrOughs
Up by Reports.

Beverly, Mass, Aug. 27.-Indications
continue to multiply here that Presi.
dent Taft's participation in the New
YORK state fight IS ended fer gcod. I'll TThhe
president is not a resident of New
York and does not feel it to be the
province OF the president to interfere
or dictate in local political fights.
Mr. Taft was drawn into New York
politics reluctantly. He was glad to
see the various leaders as they called
and he urged upon all the Importance
of trying to bring about an amicable
adjustment of affairs prior to the
state convention. This, it appears. was
impossible, and now the fight goes to
the convention. Mr. Taft will keep
hands off
The president. it is said. feels far
more keenly than he let it appear in
his letter to Mr.. Iriscom the false light
he was placed in by anonymous state
ments from Oyster Bay and New
York. He had every reason to believe
that leaders close to Col. Roosevelt
knew exactly what his attitude was
and they had first-hand knowledge of
the fact, it is said, that Mr.. Taft had
done none Of the underhand things
charged against him.
It is pointed out here by Mr.. Taft's
friends that Lloyd c. Griscom, presi-
dent OF the New York county republi-
can committee, who stood sponsor for
Mr. Roosevelt, was in President Taft's
library at Burgess Point when the
president sent the long telegram to
Vice-President Sherman. since made
public. telling him to do nothing with
out the approval of Col. Roosevelt,
which would in any way involve the
administration. Mr.. Griscom, it is said
here. took copy of this telegram back
to New York with him. Armed with
this message which outlined the presi-
dents position and fresh from con-
ference with President Taft which
lasted nearly all night, Mr.. Griscom
Went almost Immediately to see Col.
Roosevelt.
In view of the facts, Mr.. Taft was
thoroughly wrought up when he read
the subsequent newspaper attacksf
from Oyster Bay and New York. He
wrote his letter to Mr.. Griscom as a
matter of satisfaction to himself and
declared as he sent it, that it was a
matter of entire indifference to him
whether it was ever made public or
not. The president in the meantime
warned every one connected with the
administration in Beverly to make no
reply to Oyster Bay in any way.
Soon after the recent incidents at
New York it was announced that Mr..
Griscom would visit Beverly in a few
days. It is said here that Mr.. Griscom
has no engagement to see the presi-
