That R. n. stanfield, joint repre-

IN the race for speakership of the

OF Representative Roy W. Ritner who
has Just returned from tour of the

for speaker.
According to Ritner the Stanfield
strength is general all over the state

Exclusive Of SS.000.00O col
lected in July, 1915, the Inter,
nal Revenue Bureau has as
/ seSSed during the current fis-
cal year SlI3,000.000. This
includes S52,127,604.05 cor
poration income tax and SOL
04S,324.79 individual income
tax. a total of $l1S,175,92S.S4.
If 10 per cent of this amount rs

ing the first ten days of the
next fiscal year, the collection
Of the balance by the govern
ment during this year, together
with the $S,000,O00 paid in
July, 1915, will amount to
S110,000,000, while only six
months ago it was estimated
that the collections would be
only SS5,000,000 for the year.
Government officials declare
it is difficult to realize the ex-
tent of the expansion of bust
ness and private incomes rep
resented by this increase in the
income tax. 1t must be re-
membered that the estimate of
SS5,000,000 for the years col
lections was formulated last
September, when the country
was in the midst of an era of.
prosperity which many per-
sons already had character
lied as unprecedented. The.
estimate of S85,000,000 was
based upon prospective contin-
uance and eXpension of the
prosperity of which so many
signs then were perceptible. 1t
provided for a considerable in
crease over the collections of
the preceding year. The sta
tistical experts of the bureau
who have sought to interpret
the significance of the pros
pective increases in the income
tax collections are almost at a
loss to estimate even in round
numbers the volume of new
maximum, Secretary McAdoO
the increases. Several weeks
ago one of the highest experts
of the internal revenue service
expressed the belief that an in
crease of S25,000,000 in the in
come tax would represent an
increase of from S1,500,000,-
900 to S2,OOO,OOO,OOO. If the
percentages employed in this
estimate are accurate it is to be
assumed that the increase of
S35,000,000 now looked for
will be from S2,O0O,OOO,OO0 toI
S3,000,000,000.

THE CALL OF UNCLE SAM

~ HE rapidity and eagerness
VI with which the Oregon
national guard has re-
sponded to the call of the presi-
dent typifies the patriotic spir-
it of the country and the show
ing being made by our guards
men at Camp WithycOmbe Is
complimentary to the state.
In Pendleton there is no mi
litia company but not to be
held back on this account 26
of our young men took advan-
tage Of a chance to enlist IN
one of the Idaho commands. 1t
would be preferable for them
to be in an Oregon regiment
yet the Idaho boys will fight in
the same cause as Oregon so it
does not matter so much after
all.
In the call for soldiers IN
time of need there is an appeal
that quickly reaches home with
red blooded men-particular-
" with those having some mill
tary training. To those who
follow the flag under an en-
hstment oath the cOuntry's
banner is not a mere piece OF
fourth of July bunting. 1t is
the sacred symbol of the natl
on's glory. 1t represents a
cause for which brave men
have suffered and died and in
behalf of which there are mil
lions now ready to risk their
lives if necessary.
However our brush with
Mexico, if it comes about as
seems inevitable, should not be
a monumental job. When our
forces are properly mustered
we will sweep over that coun-
try as easy or easier than in
AT. For our soldiers it may
prove an adventure rather than
real war. Though there is
certain to be arduous work to
perform there will be plenty of
willing men available. The
men to 90 are the guardsmen
and men who can get away
without sacrificing home duties
too greatly. 1t is questionable
whether men of families should
go unless already in the ser
vice. In such cases their real
duty may be at home rather
than at the front, for men have
obligations to their homes as
well as TO the flag.
1t appears the United States
will have a duty to meet in
Mexico. 1t will be properly
met and if through the decree
of fate our country should
come face to face with big
war our people will not falter.
