THE DECISION is UNLIKELY.
Probabilities Are That the
Court Will Not Act for
Two Weeks.
THE LAW CONSTITUTIONAL.
There Are Few Indeed Who
Believe That 1t Will Be
Knocked Out.

WASHINGTON, March "a. :. The
recess in the United States supreme
court will terminate on Monday, but
as Monday is the day of the week
on which the. court usually hands
down decisions, there are some who
think that a decision may be given
then on the income tax cases. 1t is
understood that the members Of the
court have been in consultation con-
corning these cases, and while it
would be most unusual for them to
come to conclusion in so important
a matter soon after conclusion of the
argument, it is suggested that the
exigencies of the government are
such that special effort will be
made in the present instance 1t is
conceded by those who advance
this idea that it would be too much
to expect that an opinion giving the
reasons for a decision could be an
nounced Monday, but it is thought
possible that the court might an
nounce it's decision as to the consti-
tutionality of the law then and re-
serve the preparation of the opinion
for time of greater leisure. This
course is occasionally pursued
toward the end of term, but it is
not believed to be at all probable
that it will be followed in the income
tax cases. There will still remain
after Monday three weeks of time
before the law shall go into effect,
and it is argued that the decision
might be postponed until the Sth Of
April without putting the govern
ment to special inconvenience. Those
most familiar with the practices of
the supreme court say that the
court would not be inclined in q.
case OF so much Importance to an
hounce decision either favorable
or unfavorable to the law without
at the same time giving it's reasons
for it. There appears to be a grow
ing belief that the law will be sus-
tanned by the court when the decis-
ION is announced, and members of
congress, both among those who adj
.vocated and those who opposed the
law when it was before congress as
a part of the tariff bill, generally ex-
press themselves to this effect.
1They appear to have the belief prin-
-cipally on the faith that the court
viii be 10th to interfere with the
'prerogative Of the law-making DOW
er to provide means of securing
rev revenue. p Lawyers generally hold
that the Moore case will be thrown
out on the technicality that a col
lector cannot be enjoined from in
forcing law. This point has been
several times decided in the court.
and it appears quite uniformly
against proceeding in that way.

We have large drove of horses, and
according to the latest quotations,
none of them are worth $40. For steal
ing property of less value than $40
when the stealing is not done in a.
building, the heaviest punishment that
can be inflicted is three months in the
county Jail. The state pays a reward
OF $40 to every man who catches a
horse thief. If the aforesaid right
man calls around We will turn a horse
out in the yard, that he may steal him.
Then we will arrest him. He will get
three months in Jail and we will draw
the $500 reward. This will be divided
with him, and when his three months
are up we will repeat the performance.
one man can steal four horses a
year, or steal the same horse four
times, thus earning for the firm $780,
besides getting free board for himself.
In case he is able to give bail each
time he steals a horse, the earnings
may be run UP to $1,000 during the
year. In these times of financial de-
preston, it takes energy to win, and
we are ready to get there.
