CORPORATION TAX LAW. JExacution of New Provision. ; Washington, Sept. 19. New ly inducted into office, Commis sioner Cabell, of the internal revenue bureau, is now engaged in the heavy task of providing for the execution of the of cor poration tax law. He is in daily consultation with his deputies and law officers of government departments regarding the pre paration of the blank forms which must be sent to the various internal revenue collectors and by them placed in the hands of the corporation officers within respective districts. Precautionary measures are THE GOVERNOR WINS APPLAUSE ; OF THOUSANDS. 'Governor Kitchin has won the plaudits of many thousands-of people -by his recent speeches. At Sanford, the other day, he spoke to 7 over three thousands persons who had assembled to do him and the occasion (a vete rans' reunion) honor. - At Pitts boro, on Saturday, he spoke to eight' thousand persons, the largest crowd ever assembled at a reunion in Chatham county. The Governor inherits his de votion to the csuse of the South which is now coming to be seen as the cause of constitution al government in the Union for his father, the late Capt. W. H. Kitchin, was a gallant soldier of the Confederacy. - Those who heard his masterful address at the Opera House in this city on the tenth of May, need not be told of the magic of his elo quence when defending the South and expounding the prin ciples of the Constitution which controlled her action in 1861-5. A writter at Pittsboro, in the course of his account of his speechjthere says: T71 1 "I r or one nour me vjoveniur spoke and it measured up to the high reputation he possesses as an orator. He defended in unmistakable language the right of secession and expressed the time would soon come when Southern men would control na tional affairs, as was done before the war, and paid glowing tri bute to the woman of the South, and the Confederate soldier. ,r Long mav bur able and elo- mecessary in order to render the forms "lawyer-proof" because it is quite certain that the new law will never be put into oper ation without undergoing fierce onslaughts in the courts at the hands of the ablest attorneys in the land. The forms will not be ready for nearly a month. Evey cor poration or company save labor, religious and mutual associations which no individual dervives a -profit, and whose net income ex ceeds $5, 000 . per annum must fill in the blanks under heavy pen alty, not only for the corporation itself but for the derelict offi cials. False returns will be made the subject of severe pun ishment. All returns must be in the hands of the district collector by March 1 next; within a month the collectors must inform the comoration of the amount of the tax for which thev are liahle.

It has shown that one-eleventh of all the forests are swept by fires every year, and . that on the average since 1870 forest fires have yearly cost $50,000,00Q in timber and fifty lives. It has shown, Mr. Cleveland continues, that over 99 per cent, of the for ests in private hands which comprise three-fourths of all the wood - is devastated by destruc tive use and the sweep of un checked fires while less than 1 percent, is properly handed for successive crops or effectively protected from fire.
