 Horn has announced that he will fight eNtradition on the ground that his act was one of military expediency. He said when arrested that he wish ed to destroy the bridge in order to G1am- per the transportation of British war materials. The bridge was not great- ly damaged.
 A statement issued last night from the law office of Joseph F., James E. and Daniel T. O'Connell, of counsel for Horn, said:
 "The beginning of proceedings at Boston indicates. of course, that the United States officials plan some un- usual form of action. And while Ve are informed as to the nature of the proceedings. we do not feel at liberty to discuss the same.
 The obvious result of thesa pro- ceedings before the federal court hero is that there can be no action taken on any attempted extradition proceedings until the federal courts have completed their eXaminatioS which undoubtedly will occupy con- siderable and uncertain period of time and may wholly eliminate the ques- ton of extradition.'

GET RID OF HUMORS
AND AVOID DISEASE

Humors in the blood cause inter-
nal arrangements that affect the
whole system, as well as pimples,
boils and other eruptions. They affect
all the organs and functions, mem-
branes and tissues, and are directly
responsible for the readiness with
which some people contract disease.
For forty years Hood IS Sarsaparilla
has been more successful than any
other medicine in expelling humors
and removing their inward and out
ward effects. 1t is distinguished for
its thoroughness in purifying the

for no other medicine is like it.

Increased Tax Levy
Is Not Expected

" Unless the present legislature gets
unduly wild and extravagant there need
be no fear on the part of the taxpayers
of an increase in the annual levy of
taxes under the present system of
laws" said a high state official last
evening in discussing the possibility Of
big appropriations by the present as.
sembly.
According to this official, also, the
present legislature might even exceed
the appropriations of the last session
by considerable amount and there
would be no appreeiable difference in
the levy for the year 1916 us compared
to that for the present year This as
suranee, coming from source whose
authority is unquestionod, might serve
as balm to the frightened nerves anil
quiet the fears of the quaking taxpay.
or HLo ,s awaiting the outcome of tine
23tl o sembly to see how nUcn he is
6 ing - he ul!e to pay on the dollal.
1t is all very simple and is due entirely
to the code of laws ON assessment and
taxation of the legislature Of 1913
which works automatically to balance
the annual tax levy as between two ap.
preparation years.
Under the old law which was in ex.
istence for 20 years prior to 1918, -
says this official, "the tax levying
board was not permitted to anticipate
conditional or extraordinary appropri-
ations beyond the limit of 100000.
While this margin was sufficient for
the 20 years preceding to permit Of the
| equalization of state tax levies between
two years, under the larger appropria,
tions of recent Legislatures it was not
sufficient.
"The levy for 1918, $1,122,OOO was
the lowest that has been made in
years. This was due to the appropri-
alton Of the 1911 session, of $503,OOO
for the support of the university of
Oregon having been referred to the
people and defeated and this fund re.
turned to the general fund of the treas
ury where II laid until the following
Legislature made il again available. In
order to make up for the deficiency and
satisfy the appropriations for 1913 il
was necessary to levy $4,l65,00O for
the year 1914 and this is what made
the appropriations Of the last session of
the Legislature loom up so great in the
eyes of the taxpayers, when, as a mat,
ter Of fact, the average levy for the
two years was very reasonable Tho
amount actually levied for the years
l0l3.l9l4 was $5,2S7 900.
II 10 had not been for the $503, 00C
carried over from the year 1919 to 1919
the tax levies for l0l3.l0l4 would
have been S5,700,000.
The state tax commission was in
strumental in having the law amended
in 1913 so as to cqualize the levies be
tween each annual period For the
year 1915 the total levy was $3,ll2,00C
so there will not be any material dc
fieiency to make up in the year l0lt
unless the legislature greatly exceeds
the appropriations Of the last session
Under the old laws We had fat and
lean years in tax lcvics but under the
present system the levios are so evenly
balanced that il makes but shade OF
difference either way under ordinary
conditions Of conservative legislation.
