TO REPEAL ICE TAX.
Bill introduced to Repeal an Act Aimed at
the Industries of Kenosha County.


Assemolyman Martin, of Brown
county, introduced bill in the assem-
bly, Tuesday afternoon providing for
the repeal of the law passed to place
the tax Of ten cents a ton on ice. The
measure, which has been declared un-
constitutional by the State Supreme
Court, is still on the statute books and
it is not probable that any effort will
be made to enforce it.
Some of the friends of the former
measure are making an effort to Sc
cure the aid of the administration
party in passing law that will have a
similar import, but it is not thought
that any law to tax ice being shipped
out of the State will be held constitu.
tional.

Ethnologists of the Smithsonian In
stitution have Investigated the Fill
pinos, with results that are of rare
interest to science. They have called
attention to the fact that in the veins
of the tribes of the archipelago flows
the blood of all the races and varieties
of mankind. In the makeup of the
composite Filipino, the darker sub
stratum has been supplied by Negrito,
Papuan, and African negro. A copper
tint and fighting blood have been
furnished by Malay and Polynesian.
A lighter hue and certain arts have
come from Japanese, Chinese, and
Cambodian. Hamite, Semitic and
Aryan have stamped their image upon
the islanders. Even an ancient stream
of Caucasian is traced by ethnologist'
and stranger still, perhaps, the dis
covery has been made that a rivulet
of American Indian blood found its
way to the cosmopolitan veins of th,
Filipino through the channels Of TIVE
centuries of uninterrupted commerc,
between Mexico and Peru and tn,
archipelago.
