$4,000 a year each and various pro-
visions were made for expenses and
for Office help. For these purposes
no appropriation in set terms was
made. Another item provided the sun.
Of $1,000 q yea for the purpose of
detreying the cost Of putting the law
INTO effec, and for this an appropr!a-
ton was made in the usual form.
This was the only appropriation made
ii set terms in the bill.
The las, legislature amended the law
IN several particulars. The salaries
were left unchanged. but the items for
travelling and Office expenses were re-
duced $4,000 q year. and the $1,000
item was eliminated. This hill was
vetoed by ,he governor. which. Of
course. left the Law of 1911 standing
unchanged.
Last year when funds were need
&c for the purposes of the commits
sion, Auditor Brightnili interpreted
the Law II near that the sums speci-
fed IN IL were intended to be appro-
priaced. and he made payments out Of
any moneys available in the general
fund. This year Auditor Jorsenson
took a different view and held tina, as
there was a specific appropriation for
but one item, when the s3.h0o thus
appropriated was exhausted ne could
not legally make further payments.
When that time came and payments
were refused, action was brough, to
compel payment and this decision is
the result. II is held hat the sums
specified in the original lgw are in fact
appropriated and must be paid. The
commission can therefore proceed with
its work and its members can draw
their salaries as before. and payments
will re made as formerly FOR expenses
as they are incurred.
There has been considerable COM
ment on the &c, hat the veto Of the
tax commission amendments by the
governor after the late session lef,
h commission with $1,000 more
money 70 spend than if the bill had
been signed. The statement made las;
nigh, for publication by Commissioner
Birdzsii will set !, rest any miscon-
oeptions that there may be On that
score. II is q fac that the commits
sion may. If il chooses. ex.end in ali
se2.5o0 a year. Mr.. Birdzeli saye.
however. that there is no intention Of
doing anything Of the sort, that ire
commission was in favor of the cur=
ting Gown Of the amounts as provii-
ed f., the amendment. and that It in
tercs 10 be governed by the spin, Of
that bill just az if it had passed. The
for salaries and cost Of
operation will therefore be limited to
1880 a year as was intended by the
a legislature.

THE TAX CONFESSION STANDS

SALEM FRUIT UNION
INCREASES ITS CAPACITY

A deal went through yesterday where
by the Salem Fruit Union leased the
plant of Hunt Bros. cannery for the re-
mainder of the season, and Salem will
have one of the finest and up.to-date
canneries in the northwest by next
spring according to the agreement en-
tered into between the union and the
owners of the canning plant.
The enlargement of the consumption
of fruit is the purpose the union had in
mind when it took over the cannery.
The owners of the plant are financially
able to build first class cannery which
will have capacity to handle all the
fruit grown in this territory, and if this
is done, large amounts of fruit win not
go to waste in the future as in the past.

JUBILEE SINGERS COMING.

There is probably no other kind of
music which has more universal ap.
peal than well-trained negro voices,
The Georgia Jubilee Singers, who will
appear on our Chautauqua program this
summer are a company of very capable
cOlOred singers. They have a repertoire
embracing some of the best and most
difficult music, and thus they are
capable of rendering in a most satisfac.
tory manner. Their greatest hits will,
however, probably be made with old.
time plantation melodies. The Jubilee
Singers will give us two complete con.
