The Importance of this law is rec

the Literary Digest" collects a num-
Der of opinions, without exception in
favor of the decision. 1t is pointed
out that this decision will not only
have influence over the laws of in
heritance in different states, but also
involves and seems to apply to the
provisions of the federal income tax
law of 1894, which exempted all in
comes below $1,000, and which was
the basis of Representative Winston's
law that was declared unconstitu-
tional here.
The Detroit Free Press says that in
the two laws there was the same
principle of classification and discrlm-
nation in the income tax, declared
unconstitutional, as in the Illinois in
heritance law, declared constitutional
by the same court, and adds that with
| the same features in both, ''if it is
constitutional to apply these princi-
pies in an inheritance tax law. it is
| hard to see why it is not equally con-
stitutional to apply them in an income
tax law" and these sentiments the

THE CABLE BILL.

There is considerable opposition to
the Cable bill which passed the SEN
ate. SO many people think that
there is niger in the fence" There
is fear that some one will make
money out of it. After all that is the
prime reason that people lay tele-
graphic cables. They do not lay
them for the general happiness of
mankind, they lay them because they
have capital to invest and a cable can
earn good interest.
The vague idea that some one, I'M
known, will lay cable to these Is
lands out of pure philanthrophy, may
be very fascinating, but it is not like
ly to be realized. Whoever connects
this group with the outer world by
means of cable is going to ask for
and obtain some privilege for what
he does. Of that we may be certain.
Whether it is a corporation or a gov
ernment, there will be something To
pay.
The fact is what we want is 4 ca
BILE, and "A great many of us would be
willing to swallow not only one 1ig-
ger, but several niggers, wool, hide
and bones, if we can get it. There

as brigadier general, and the ceremony
was one of intense interest. The oath
was administered by George A. Har-

large concourse of people, including
many Confederates. When the cere-
mony was over a great shout went up,

this city, who was with General Lee

to Sonntag's assistance.

"Lord Almighty" Sonntag ex-

me and joined the two at the door.
''Mr. Conway, come here" Mr.. Perry
called to me. "See," he said, when
came up, "here is the voice.

ner. 1T is attached to the instrument,
and runs down seemingly in the

did so, and a Elock-work arrangement
was set in motion which communicated

Mr.. Perry.
We went over to the plank. and saw
that Skinner had raised it so we could
look underneath. There was steel
spring under one end, which was COM
pressed when a weight was put upon
the plank. The compression operated

it. The wire ran through an iron pipe
under the stones toward the phono-
graph, the other end being fastened to
the clock apparatus as we had already
seen.
An arrangement like that which oper-
ates the photograph was also used for
the revolver, which was fixed above it,

in the mortar between two stones. The
