but little choice. when tax of per
cent on net receipts of other corpora
lions is considered.
1T cannot be said that there is any
exemption of insurance companies. Al!
taxation laws must be considered to-
grther.
"On the subject of duplicate taxation
it is in a certain sense double taxa =
ton, but in another sense it is not
a double tax on property. Under the
, general law of 1896 only tangible prop
"rty is taxed. When the income on
that property is taxed ii cannot b.
called double taxation. 1t seems to
mo that there is a distinction between
capital aud income, just like a govern
ment bond. That is the capital, but
the coupon you clip from it is not cap
ital, but income.
Regarding the contention as to pen
atty that does not directly concern
this case, ii is only incidental The
imposition of this penalty is not un-
| constitutional. / take it that the tax
payer is entitled to a hearing before
the tax appeal court under the law OF
! 1886. There is nothing here to show
that the penalty can BE- added without
the right to appeal. This act would
stand and be operative even If that
section is void.
Il don't believe that there has been
any objection cited that would hold
! water Perhaps one of these minor
/ propositions may be affected, but that
would not invalidate the law as a
| whole.
! Il think that ii would be interfering
with the Legislative powers to declare
, this act void. Taxes cannot be levied
! by the executive or judiciary depart
I ments. This is a right delegated to the
/ Legislature. If ii was not allowed tC
/ levy taxes, the business of the govern
ment would have to be suspended. The
discretion left to the Legislature is
broad.
/ "A comparison of the present income
! tax law with other systems shows il
/ to be extremely mild, both in the mat.
/ ter of discrimination and of eXemp-
ton. Far more stringent laws have
been sustained by the courts"
/ MIR. HARTWELL REPLIES.
Mr.. Hartwell replied briefly to the
argument, stating that the Legislature
! instead of levying this income tax
could have added to the general tax
that the present law was blocked out
after the former law, which was de-
clared null and void, and also after the
United States law which was overruled
by the Supreme Court. If the law
contained such radical defects as had
bttl pItseIleu II argued lnat III SnOulC
be set aside as whole. Concluding
he said: The corporation pays a tax
only on its net income, while individ-
! uals are allowed a deduction of but
81 600. This discrimination totally pre-
cludes the possibility of proportionate
taxation and of uniformity"
The question is to be further pre-
scented to the Supreme Court on briefs
which will be filed Friday. The SUI
preme Court adjourned to this morning
at 10 o'clock, when the hearing in the
Pahia case will be resumed.

Dewey Designs a Battleship.

NEW YORK, October 16.-Admiral
Dewey has proposed to the Navy Depart
ment design for a battleship which Will
carry a battery OF four twelve-inch guns
in the turrets, sixteen eight-inch guns In
the broadsIde and about twenty three
inch guns. In the opinion of the Admiral
this design is superior to that submitted
by either the majority or minority of the
Board of Construction. The majority
recommended a battery of four twelve
inch guns and twenty seven-inch guns IN
the broadside, and the minority four
twelye-inch and twelve eight-inch guns
four of the latter in superposed turrets.
The superposed turret does not appeal 10
the Admiral.
Both the majority and the minority de-
signs were referred to him for an ex-
preston of his views, and In an extend
ed response he submits the plans given
( above Admiral Dewey declares that if
compelled to decide between the plans
of the majority and of the minority OF
the board he must unhesitatingly de-
| eide for the majority. However, he
points out two elements of weakness in
| the latter; namely, a sacrifice of Often
sive power by the adoption of the seven
inch gun; and. secondly, insufficient pro-
lection for the broadside battery.

BLOOD

We live by our blood, and
on it. We thrive or starve, as
our blood is rich or poor.
There is nothing else to live
on or by.
When strength is full and
spirits high, we are, being re-
freshed, bone muscle and brain,
in body and mind, with con-
tinual flow of rich blood.
This is health.
When weak, in low spirits,
no cheer, no spring, when rest
IS not rest and sleep is not
leep, we are starved; our blood
is poor; there is little nutri-
ment in it.
Back of the blood, is food,

it fails, take SCOTS emulsion

THE new marine railway which has
been under construction for the
Oahu Railway and Land Com
pany. was completed on Saturday af-
ter about three weeks work, and the
first vessel went on it yesterday. 1t
was the company's big dredger, which
has not been out of the water for
about two years. She was hauled up
on the marine railway by the aid Of
a block and tackle arrangement, the
dredger's own engines furnishing the
required power
The outer boards on the dredger' s
sides are covered with barnacles and
marine growth, as could but be ex-
pected after they had remained in the
water for so long a period. AZ places
the boards have been entirely eaten
away It is a curious fact, however
that even at the worst places where
there has not been splinter left OF the
original boards, the layer Of tarred felt
under the boards of the surface has
not been touched. The dredger will
now be entirely re-sheathed' and VIII
be caulked 1t is expected that she
will be ready for business in a couple
of weeks. The marine railway has
proved itself to be a success
On the Railroad Wharf.
There has not been very much &C
tiyity along the Railroad wharves late
". There are only three ships in the
docks at present. OF these, the schoon-
or Dauntless is discharging lumber.
She is lying at the smaller wharf, ana
does not expect to finish discharging
for several days She will then sail
for the Sound in ballast The car
roIlton. also lying at the short wharf
has been discharging coal for the last
week. She will probably finish and get
ready to sail in ballast for Tacoma
the end of this week or the beginning
of the next. The Annie Johnson was
at the Hawaiian American steamship
Company's shed yesterday afternoon.
She will be discharging some of her
freight at that place today, whereupon
she will go back to one of the other
wharves to discharge the rest of her
cargo. She will then begin loading as
big a cargo of sugar as she can pro-
cure, and sail for the Coast.
