The Massachusetts Law.


For twenty years Massachusetts has had
a law after which No. 284A was patterned.
California likewise has had provision
sufficiently similar to avoid double taxation
and to place lenders all the same foot
ing but as the parties to the contract were
barred from agreeing regarding as to who
should pay the taxes on the mortgage, the
borrower there has been subjected to a rate
of interest margin higher, plus the tax,
than he otherwise would have had to pay.
In his message to the New York Legislature
mortgages be taxed y per cent at time of
filing, in lieu of all other tax on them. Such
arrangements would porvide uniformity
and be the next move from exemption en-
jority of the authorities on economic law.
All civilized states on earth aside from
not pretend to tax credits at all. England,
Germany, France, Canada and other of the
civilized nations exempt them. Their laws
in regard to credits conform to the teach
ings Of economists, the scientific authority
on such subjects. Is it not strange that
Wisconsin and her sister states should be so
rance with economic law2 Trying to get
something for nothing is populism. The
credit is not property: The trouble is in
same as real, material property The credit
is only evidence that some other party has
property rightfully belonging to the holder
material property wherever found but not
utter an economic lie and try to tax the
man, too, who has parted with it, for that
makes double taxation on all property in
the possession of the debtors. has 800
on 500 worth of property and B pays no
tax. A sells the horse to B and takes his
500 note. Our populistic law says that
there is now 5000 worth of property and
would tax on the horse and on the
note. The note is not property, only evil
dence in AS hand that he may show to the
world that B has 500 worth of his (A's)
property, and demand for It's return, or an
equivalent in value. By classifying the
note the same as property the State utters,
Property is property whoever possesses it.
Were to trade the note back to B for
the horse no one will contend that the note
would remain property, yet were it prop

corporate property be a saw mill and iS
taxed as such to the corporation the indi

mortgage on the corporate property or mu-
n1c1pality, and ever stands for, and reDrp
sents, conditional title to property ALREADY
taxed. Likewise the mortgage is conditional
title, provisional deed, of the farm thn
store or the factory, and taxing it. without
exempting a like amount from the tax on
the property mortgaged, is, as the Outlook
says, placing a heavier tax on property
held by debtors than on property debt free"
Thus you see, while attempting to tax
credits at all, the State is doing violence
to right and reason, and attempting that
which is counter to economic law, and the
fact that the State has only been able to
collect a tax on from 2 to per cent of
such items proves it. Yet my measure. No.
284A, did not attempt the whole reform at
once.

Editor Sentinel:
DEAR SIR In reply to yours of the 21st
Wisconsin, in common with most states
of the Union, has for years had law tax
ing all credits as property Such has been
the lao. The practice, like in other states,
has been to list not to exceed to per
exempt. Now II each credit holder escaped
in the same proportion, say 1920 of his
holding, the result would be fair as between
them aud would practically amount to ex-
emption Of credits from taxation. In prac-
tice, however, the law has not been admin
istered fairly as between individual credit

PARIS MUST ANSWER
CITED FOR CONTEMPT
IN WAIKIKI LAND CASE
FINE POINTS OF LAW DECIDED
BY JUDGES DE BOLT AND
RoeINsoN-plvoRcE
CASE.

That 100000 borrowed by the Wal
kiki Land & Loan Association was
again under the judicial searchlight
yesterday. The report of NJ. T. Simon
ton, master, was before Judge Robin
son.
Lorrin Andrews. who appeared for j..
NJ. McChesney, the complaining stock
holder, stated that George II. Paris,
treasurer of the company, had utterly
refused to make the accounting order
ed by the court. Mr.. McChesney in
formed the court that the company had
authorized the loan all right and s40,-
900 of the amount was paid to n. w.
Griswold and himself for McCully tract
leases. II was for the balance of $20,-
900 that he had been trying fourteen
months to obtain an accounting.
Judge Robinson ordered that Paris
be cited to appear Saturday morning
and show cause, If any he had, why he
should not be punished for contempt
of court. The Judge suggested that If
civil proceedings we're not efficient, the
matter should be presented to the
Grand Jury for investigation.
VIM. Crawford was ordered by Judge
Robinson to pay his wife suing for
divorce $40 a month alimony, S25 at
torney's fee and $22 costs. Crawford
made a poor mouth about income and
debts without avail. J. NJ. Vivas ap-
peared for the libellant and Mr.. Crook
y for the libellee.
Judge Robinson sustained the demur-
rer of the Oahu Lumber & Building Co.
to the alternative writ Of mandamus OF
Lee Wal, dismissing the petition with
out prejudice. MIR. Peters for the re-
spondent showed that II was not ac-
cording to law to serve or enforce
mandamus on corporation, when the
acts required to be done by the writ
were such as were for an officer ol
officers of the corporation to do. Judge
Robinson, in the course of argument
asked Mr.. Peters II the demurrer itself
was not irregular. in being to the writ
instead of the petition, mandamus not
being demurrable. The answer was
that IL was the practice here to demul
to the writ as involving the petition
Mr.. Thayer appeared for the writ.
Judge De Bolt set aside the service
of summons on the garnishee in the
case of J. Hayashi VS.. f. Iwata and the
Phoenix Insurance Co. of Brooklyn as
garnishee, because the copy served
on C. / HutChins agent of the gar.

HeId.up and Robbed.

Benjamin Jarvis, a prominent citi-
zen of Saltwell, in the lower end of
the county, was held upa few nights
ago in the Maulsby covered bridge
near Gypsy and robbed OF $25. which
he had drawn here for the purpose of
paying his wlfe's doctor bill. He was
on horseback and the hour was late.
The bridge is splendid place fol the
successful operation Of highwaymen
and according to Il recent book has
been the scene Of daStardy crimes FOR
more than half a century. 1t is long
and being covered, when one enters it,
it is like going into a tunnel. Jarvis
has no better eyes than any one else
and, therefore, he could not see the
highwaymen and does not know who
they are. Several holdS-up have &C.
CURED there lately and it is the com
census Of opinion that these depreda-
tionS are being committed by local
parties.
