reason Is suggested why power to tax
so situated should not be
delegated equally with power to tax
property on land within the Territory,
or why general power to tax property
within the Territory should be limited
by inference to the tax of property |
having its situs on land.
The importance Of this question to
the Territory is obvious. for If the
Territory has no jurisdiction for tax.
ing purposes over this open sea limit
IL may have none for the punishment
of territorial offenses committed with.
in that space, or fer service therein Of
civil or criminal process. Whatever
IL true of the outer portion Of that lin
IL would also be true of the inner por.
ton as far as the low water mark. As
suggested by appellants counsel, the
doctrine c0ntended for by the Cable
Company would enable any resident
who wishes to do so to eyade payment
of taxes on personal property by plac-
ing 1t outside Of low water mark on
the first day OF January when liable TO
assessment. The inference that Con.
prcss did not intend that the tax laws
oi the Territory should apply to prop.
crty in territorial waters and that the
expression within the Territory"
should mean within it's geographical
limits would lead to possible Conse.
Quences OF so grave nature that the
inference ought not to be made unless
lor definite and satisfactory reasons.
The cables are not real property

claim to them be made by the state on
any theory of the law of fixtures.
