Scenes Seldom Witnessed.

The scenes at the coronation were
such as have seldom been witnessed
in Norway. Early in the day great
crowds thrOnged the streets. The city
was decorated in every possible man

day costumes.
Among the guests who are here and
witnessed the coronation are: Prince
Henry of Prussia, Crown Prince Chris
tian, Crown Princess AleXandrine and
Prince Harold Of Denmark, Grand
Duke Michael AleXandrOvitch, brother
of the emperor of Russia, and Premier

Inheritance Tax Law Valid.

The Wisconsin Inheritance tax law
was sustained. 1t imposes tax upon
every transfer of property, real or per-
sonal, lying within the jurisdiction Of
the state, made either by will or the
Inheritance laws of the state, or in con-
temptation of the death of the owner
and to take effect after his death.
Transfers under power of attorney are
also subject to the tax. The tax so
imposed is upon the clear market value
of the property at the rates imposed
by law and upon the excess of eXemp-
tons granted by law.
Some Features of the Statute.
The primary rates are imposed upon
estates which exceed the exemptions
allowable and do not exceed $50. 900.
The primary rates range from l per
cent. in the case of the wife. husband,
lineal issue or lineal ancestor of the
deceased. to per cent. in the case OF
the most distant relatives and stran-
gers in blood. The rates of taxation
are graded according to the value OF
the estates

Fifteen determined, resolute farm
ers in any local Union Lodge can
build a good one-section cotton ware
house if they will come together with
the conviction that this thing must
be done for their mutual protection.
If the actual cash to pay for all
this warehouse cannot be raised by
the true cooperative spirit among
the local Lodge and the members have
them that all Union farmers should
have, there is nothing in the way OF
them clubbing together and making
their own concrete blocks and put
ting up their warehouses with their
own labor. The old-time co-opcra-
tive plan of~house-raising, log-rolling
and corn-shucking may be worked IN
building warehouses to considerable
extent where the Unions cannot raise
only money enough to produce the
material. Our Union bureau is now
getting up. plans and specifications
for the very cheapest and simplest
warehouse plans and will publish the
same as early as possible.

Farmers Organizations.

I. In South Carolina we have had u
deal sight Of experience in organiz-
ing farmers. The old line Of farmers
socie'ies-the Grange, the Alliance
and Institute Clubs-have all come
and gone up in the smoke of time
like the burning down or the rotting
away of old buildings that have dis
appeared and better structures have
taken their places. So it is with the
Farmers Union. We have had vast
amount of experience in farmers or
and know that the Union
Is building up structure upon bet
fer plan and upon irmer foundation
than all the other organizations that
have gone before.

The only part the troops took in the
