DECISION INVOLVING
THE INHERITANCE TAX,

Judge Adams has rendered a de.
cision of some Importance as affecting
the payment of interest on inheritance
taxes in this county. The case in
point was that involving the heirs OF
the late Ellen S. Weber, whose death
occurred some three years ago. The
heirs objected to the payment of in
terest on the tax from the time of the
death of the testatrix, and the matter
came before Judge Adams yesterday.
I. A. Murphy represented the heirs
and States Attorney Weld the state.
The judge held that the interest must
be paid. This will bring the tax on
the estate TO about So, 900 and when
paid it will be the first of it's kind col
lected in the county.

Some interesting developments
were looked for in the consideration
of the report of the committee on

knotty problem to deal with in the
complications that had arisen be-

hospital. The regular rate allowed
by the county for the care of the sick
when treated at the county's expense
is So. so per week for hospital services

MERCER PLEDGED TO
MARSH BY MCKINNEY.

According to the Springfield State
Register, James Mckinney pledged
Mercer county to supp ort Marsh for
nomination for congress in the new
district, before the apportionment
committee agreed TO take Adams out
of the district and add Rock Island in
its place. The Register says in it's
report of the committee meeting:
Senator Mckenzie suggested that
Rock Island should be taken from the
Prince district and given to the Marsh
district, while Adams county Should
be added to the FRINGE district Good
politics, he said, made it expedient to
do this.
Senator Pemberton agreed with
Senator Mckenzie and spoke in favor
of making the proposed change.
" i object to this arrangement,
said Repre- entative Rinaker. we
have been considering personal mat
tiers here and we have taken care of
every one of the congressman except
Congressman Marsh. Now it is pro-
posed to put him into district where
he will have no show for a renomina-
ton
81 do not understand that this dis
trict will interfere with Congressman
Marsh's chances of going back to con-
gress,' said Chairman Stubbletield.
Mr.. Mckinney, of the state executive
committee, is here, and he can explain
the conditions
asI have no doubt concerning the
standing of Congressman Marsh in
this district said Mr.. Mckinney. i
understand that it is complained Mer-
Ger county will not be for Mr.. Marsh.
The fact is that Mercer county is on
the best terms with Mr.. Marsh and he
probably has as many friends there as
in any county in the district. We
have always been for Mr.. Marsh and
he will have no trouble with this dis
trict.'
Representative johnson agreed
with Mr.. Mckinney and said that MIR.
Marsh stood well in Rock Island.
Rock Island, he said, has no candi-
date for congress and it is not under
taking to undermine the political am
bition OF Congressman Marsh.
Representative Schlagenhauf, of
Adams county, said he had in his pos
session a letter from Mr.. Marsh, in
which he requested that he be given
the district originally mapped out.
Il have been told, said Mr.. Schla-
genhauf. that Mercer county would
not stand for Marsh. :"
"'You have certainly been misin-
formed said Mr.. Mckinney. i can
say for Mercer county that it is will
ing to stand for Marsh.
