ALL KNOCKED OUT
According to the Income Tax DC
cision All Internal Revenue
Laws Are
UNCONSTITUTIONAL AND VOID
Thus Says ii tennessee LaWyer-Only
Duties on Imports May BE
Collected.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, May 22.--A start
ling announcement is made by Col.
Noble Snithson, a Knoxville attorney,
who has had much practice before the
United States supreme court, that the
decision on the income tax has also kill,
ed all internal revenue laws. In a care.
fully prepared opinion Col. Smithson
says: Justice Fuller, in his opinion,
says the constitution divides federal
taxation into two classes: First-Dlrect
taxes. Second-Imposts and excuses,
and that direct tax must be apportioned
among the several states in proportion to
their representation in the house Of
representatives. The apparently logical
result of this opinion is that all federal
taxes, except duties import, (that is to
say, taxes collected under the tariff laws)
must be apportioned among the states
according to their representation in the
house of representatives. The act of
August -, 1894, (Wilson'bilD section AZ,
provides: There shall be levied and col
lected on all distilled spirits, etc, a tax
of Sl.1O Of each proof gallon The
statutes Of the United States levy a tax
of six cents per pound on tobacco, etc.
1t seems clear, according to this opinion
of the chief justice, that these are
direct taxes OF personal property, aud
not bong apportioped among the sew
eral states according 70 thoir represent
alton. they are u~ncOnstit utional and
void. II this view be correct the su-
preme court has not only wiped out the
income tax. but has practically repealed
the internal revenue as it affects tobacco.
whisky, brandy, etc. II this construction
of the opinion be correct, all direct taxes,
including those on real and personal
property must be levied according to the
representation, so that the rich people in
New York, Massachusetts, and other
rich eastern states will pay no more tax
per capita than the poor people of the
western and southern states. OF course
this is not to be thought of. 1t would
result that practically all revenues for
the support of the government must be
raised by duties on imports, and IN
stead of reducing the tariff, it will
necessarily increase il materiallvn

The story of Khikoff's brave fight
against adversely preceded him to Rus
STA, and his return was marked by an
immediate appointment as superinten-
dent of the KursE Kieff Railroad. He
filed this post honorably for several
years, and was afterwards transferrt 4
to the more important Moscow Riazan
line. When the RuSso-Turkish war
broke out he was placed in charge of
the Empress's special RED Cross
train. khilkoff's greatest service TO bis
country consisted in his superintend-

Bulgaria was Khilkoff's next field of
activity. His ability as an executive
caused him TO be invited by Prince
Leopolds government. in 1882. to ac-
ca1t the portfolio of Minister of Ways
and Communications and of Commerce
and Agriculture. He performed his
oneruus duties in a manner to win the
regard of all political parties, and
when, in common with other Russian
officials, he surrendered his post after
the coup d'etat of Philipolis, the regrets
of the entire Bulgarian people followed
him into retirement. The Prince has
since distinguished himself in many
way, notably as Anuenkoff's right
hand man in the extension of the Trans
Caspian Railway to Samaroand, and he
has also held the position of inspector
general OF the entire Russian railway
system. All accounts agree that he is a
man of broad views and untiring energy
and the prospects are that he will dc
his utmost to hasten the completion OF
the Trans-Siberian Railroad. From
this to the establishment of line OF
steamers between Vladivostock and San

thereby hope to see a tightening OF tho
