Inheritance Tax Denounced-S

yer Law Repeal Demanded.
Yesterdays meeting of the board of
trade was full of ginger from beginning
to end. First of all came report from
the committee on legislation, through
Judge Isaac AtWater, on the inheritance
tax bill. The report was against the
proposed law. Fault was found with
the bill because under it an inheritance
of $4,000 would not be taxed. while one
$500 greater would be. Complaint was
urged against the provision fixing
the tax on a descendant of de-
ceased person at 2 per cent, while
publc.or charitable Institution, like a
school, library or hospital, would be
taxed per cent on inheritances. The
report also said the bill would destroy
all of the strongest motives i'll the de-
yelopment of good citizens-the accu-
mutation of wealth and the bequeathing
to charity. The state would gain moth
ing by the law, aS it would be taking
money out of one pocket and putting 1t
into another. Judge Atwater made a
personal argument on the report and the
accompanying resolution, which called
upon the Hennepin delegation to work
against the bill. The report and reSOlu-
ton were adopted.
The hottest debate was over the pre-
amble and resolution presented at the
last meeting by MAJ. Bassett, calling
for the immediate repeal of the Sher-
man silver law. The financial question
was fought over by Maj. Bassett, eX-
Gov. Pillsbury, J. NJ. Bartlett and
George P. Wilson. MI. Bartlett said
the board of trade didn't know enough
about silver to memorialize congress on
the subject. But the memorial calling
for repeal was adopted.
The board voted that no money be
raised for the purpose of bringing trav-
elers to Minneapolis. Gov. PillsDury
brought up the fact that an old law
stands in Minnesota which prohibits all
corporations, other than those organized
to operate railroads, canals or turn
pixies, from holding more than 5000
acres of Ian d. The committee on legis
laton will consider it. Resolutions
were adopted condemning the project
of building new capital right away.

Ahuse the Park R1ard.

The property owners around Lake of
the Isles are up in arms on the park
boards intention to remove the dredge
boat from Lake of the Isles to Powder
horn park. Nearly all of the Lake of
the isles shore was decided to the park
board in 1886. with the understanding
that the lake would be dredged and i'm
proved within a reasonable time. The
taxes on the land around the lake are
several times higher than they were i'll
1856, yet the land will sell for not 81
more. The property owners will not
reap any benefits from the gifts to the
park board unless the improvements be
completed. The dredge boat was pur-
chased expressly for this work. The
property owners object to its removal
