Pope Not POLK.

OMAHA, Aug 22.-To the Editor of The
Bee: Whereas one J. A. Pope, Presbyterian,
who arrived in the city of Omaha a few
weeks ago and who has had a series of
trouble and was written UP in the different
papers from the time, many OF the pub
lie are impressed with the idea that it is the
Rev. H. d. Polk. pastor of the Mt Moriah
Baptist church of this city, hence. we take
this step to disabuse the minds of the public
of such false impression. Rev. II. d. Polk
has been pastor of the Mt. MoriAh Baptist
church for nearly three years and is also
a member of the Twin City alliance and has
not had any trouble whatever.

Attorneys Agree to plan.

The attorneys present agreed with the
county attorney that in this way the whole
question of the constitutionality of the
law as first passed, and as amended TO
provide for devoting the money so raised
to the construction of permanent county
roadways, will thus be raised. The lawyers
were also of the opinion that the supreme
court will be willing to take original iuris-
diction in this case, for the reason that all
the counties of the state are concerned in
the outcome, and for the further reason
that the tax. II held constitutional. is a lien
on all the property of the decedent per-
sons and against the administrators and
devisees and bears per cent interest from
the day OF death
The appeal now pending in the Ben B.
Wood case, in which the county Judge held
the state law unconstitutional, will be al
lowed to rest where 1t is until the new
procedure reaches a conclusion. At the
conference Judge Vinsonhaler said he saw
no reason to reconsider the decision he
had made in the Wood estate, which had
the effect of discharging the administrators
without the state inheritance tax being
first paid.

TEST OF LEGACY TAX LAW
Mode Of Procedure Regarding Value Of
Estates iI Decided Upon.
COUNTY OFFICIALS AND LAWYERS AGREE
SlabauEh VIII Prepare order on
County Court Denying ApPIica-
tion for Appraisers Here
tOfore Made to Court.

At a conference Tuesday between County
Attorney Slabaugh and County Judge Vim
sonhaler which was attended by two-scors
lawyers representing various estates which
have passed through or are still pending
in the probate court, a method OF pro-
cedure was agreed on to test the constitu-
tionality of the state inheritance tax law.
Judge Slabaugh will prepare an order
for presentation to the county court Fri
day morning, which will be denial Of
the application for the appointment of
appraisers for a list of estates heretofore
made to the county court. The order
will be made specifically in the case of
the estate of the late Roxena Kendall.
This estate disposed of something like
$4,000 which might be subject to the state
tax.
Following the journal entry Of this order
OF refusal to appoint appraisers, the county
attorney will apply to the supreme court
as soon as 1t convenes, or as soon as two
judges can be gotten together in Lincoln,
for writ OF mandamus to have Judge
Ninsonhaler show cause why an order
should not be granted compelling him to
appoint the appraisers as asked with a
view to having the estate valued for the
purpose OF collecting the inheritance tax.
