right, and would willingly cut out
his share of the talking. He was
proud of the record made by the
rural lines thus far, which now
controlled 425 phones and expected
to double the number the coming

were fortunate in their ability to

thereof"
THE verbal error" said Mr..
Young is apparent. The word ex-
cess is used in the first sentence Of
section 2, instead of the word exemp-
ton, which is intended. The error
here is so palpable that the meaning
is not obscured, and therefore it is
not worthy of discussion. The policy
of the law is clearly and emphatically
disclosed in section l.
I'm view of this declaration, the
other error, which is found in sub
division 1, or section 2, is manifest.
In order to harmonizeSSthis subdivi-
sion of section 2 with the policy
declared in section 1, it should read
as if the phrase over $4,000 and
were omitted. The subdivision would
then read when such valuation is
less than $4,000 the rate shall be Il
per cent. thereof. =
The only question, he said, was
whether the law is repugnant to
section 1, of article 9, of the con-
stitution.
Mr.. Young cited cases to show
that an inheritance tax is not one
upon property, or upon persons, but
solely on the right to receive property.
1t has been held that an inheritance
consisting of United States bonds, ex-
empt by federal law from all forms
Of state taxation, notwithstanding
such exemption, is subject to an
impost of this kind, because the tax
is not on the property passing, but
on the privilege granted by the state
to receive it.
Further, ct is not until it has
yielded its contribution to the state
that a bequest becomes the property
Of the legatee.'
Jared How made the principal
argument for the defendants. He
argued that authorities hold that
the right for state to escheat the
property of individuals has been lost,
and that while a state may have a
right to control the giving of be-
quests. it has not a right to stop
them. The fault Of the law is that
while section ! states that a tax
shall be levied, section 2 provides a
computation of the tax according to
which no tax can be levied.
