Charles II. Campbell and Adam
II. DAYS., arrested in this city
last Friday in connection with an
alleged fraudulent draft issued
on a capitalist of Eugene. Ore,
appeared in police court today.

day In order to secure counsel,
which was granted. Campbnll

asked for preliminary hearing
He was sent up for trial.
George S. Willoughby, on
whom the draft was made, testi-
fed to having met Davis in the
G. p. r. depot here on Jan. 81.
Draws introduced himself as a
Dakota farmer out here looking
for investments. He asked Will
loughby for his address so that
he might communicate with him
later. Davis handed the latter
his fountain pen Gnd notebook in
which his name and address were
inscribed. 1t was Willoughby's
intention to arrive home n two
weeks, he testified, but his plans
were altered and he got home in

PORTLAND, Ore, Jan. 81
Binger Hermann established the
fact that he is known as a man of
good reputation for honesty and
integrity by the testimony of Gov
ernor Benson, Chief Justice F. A.
Moore, ttAorney General Craw-
ford and some six other well
known citizens of Oregon at che
opening of the Hermann trial be-
fore Judge Wolverton in the Unit
ed States court this morning.
He then proceeded to take a
fall out of Henry Meldrum's
testimony given i'm behalf of the
government by putting Charles
Holmstrom of Salem on the
stand, who testified that he had
paid Medium three visits at his
office and that at neither of these
had he seen either Mays or Her
mann in the office.
This is i'm contradiction to the
testimony of Meldrum and H. L..
Patterson, who both said that
Holmstrom was one of the men
in the office at the time Hermann
was there and had his talk with
Mays about the Blue Mountain
forest reserve.
Three other witnesses are yet
to come and then Hermann, the
defendant, will himself take tie
stand in his own behalf, as The
last witness for the defense.

But It Won't Knock Out That
Treasury Deficit Which Is Now
STANDARDIZATION Corporation
Tax Is Collected.
Especial Correspondence

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-The
latest estimate made by the treas
ury department is that about $15,-
100000 will be derived by July
l, 1910, from the corporation tax.
This will go but short way to-
ward meeting the present $751;
100000 deficit in the government
revenues from tariff and other
sources.
The largest possible revenues
from the first levy of the nation
al corporation tax as now estimat-
ed by the treasury authorities is
$25, 100000, of which 100000
900 at least will not be paid in
until after midnight June 80, and
will therefore not be entered in
the present fiscal year.
What the treasury deficit at
the end of the fiscal year will be
can only be estimated. The treas
ury authorities are hopeful that
it may decrease. owing to better
returns from the new tariff law in
the last three months of the fiscal
year, April, May and June.
The sc districts of the internal
revenue service have sent out all
their blanks and now have the
returns pretty we'll in. The taxes
are assessed by the internal reve-
nue. commissioner on their re-
turns, and they are then redis-
tributed to the various collection
districts for collection. 1t was
found that instead of 10000 cor
porations in the United States, as
estimated originally by the treas
Iury, there are over 100000. But
perhaps one-third or one-half of
that number will be found to
have gone out of existence or to
be nontaxable on account of lack
of net income. which only is tax
able under the law.
| Four kinds of blanks are COM
| ing in as returns of four kinds of
corporations, namely, mercantile,
miscellaneous, banks and other
financial corporations, and insur-
ance companies. Each of the cor
porations must make sworn re-
turns through the proper officials
which report their gross income
from all sources, all deductions as
we'll as depreciation of plant for
the calendar year January to De-
cember inclusive, also stock issued
and bonded or other Indebtedness.
Evidence thus furnished is secret
and may not be used except for
collecting the government revenue
from corporation.
If concealment is made of prop
erty and the commissioner of in
ternal revenue has cause to be-
lieve that any corporation is max
ing wrong returns or concealing
property, he is empowered under
the law to make examination OF
the books of the company or an
examination of any other kind he
may choose to develop the facts
A corporations official is liable
for perjury if he knowingly swears
to false returns of income.
So far, the returns to the treas
ury have not indicated improper
returns, but nevertheless some in
stances where the corporations
themselves prefer the government
to make sure that returns are be-
ing made in the proper way. The
circuit and distrist courts of the
United States have jurisdiction to
compel the production of books
and to summon witnesses.
The penalties provided are fines
of from $1,000 TO $4,000 against
corporations or officials of COM

made to congress the treasury de-
partment figured that this method
of taxation would add about $780,
100000 to the gross income of
gncle Sam. 1t is now estimated
without full data that the sum
taken in annually will approx
mate $25,00O,000. However.
other sources Of revenue will
have to increase greatly, coupled
with rigid economics in the mat
ter of appropriations by congress,
to make Uncle Sans budget go
around.

AUTOMOBILE CROSSES
PERILOUS QUIckSAND

ATOKA. Okla, June 2s.-Fording the
Canadian river and crossing the lime
stone gap of Oklahoma in one day
feature never performed in motoring
history of Oklahoma. the Flanders "20"
Under Three Flags" automobile added
nearly a hundred miles to its record
today, and is within a days journey of
the good roads of Texas.
The fording of the Canadian was an
extremely perilous undertaking, not so
much on account of the amount of
water in the stream as from the mile
or more of perilous quicksand of which
the river bed is composed. The under
taking consumed most of the morning,
and none of the prairie and woodland
roads permitted much speed during the
day on account of the hidden stumps
with which they bristled, but the car
kept plugging along and by eliminating
all delays except those caused by the
road steady progress was recorded in
the direction of Mexico City.
All today's travel was over the route
pronounced too tough a proposition for
the Glidden tour.
