DRIVEN AWAY
BY TAXATION
Very Large Capital Withdrawn From
Kentucky.
The Case Of the Walsh Estate In Lex
lngton Points Out Danger
Gus Result of Our Tax
System.

The manner in which the tax sys-
tenn of Kentucky may seriously affect
its business interests was recently
given a very striking demonstration
in Lexington. The estate of Mrs.
Clara Bell Walsh, amounting to about
$750,000 had been for many years
managed by the Security Trust COM
pany of Lexington, as trustee. A pc
tition was filed recently in the Fay
cite circuit court asking the court
to terminate the trusteeship, so that
Mrs. Walsh might put her property in
the hands Of a trust company in st.
Louis. The Security Trust company,
which had been acting as trustee, did
not oppose this suit, it being distinct
ly stated in the petition of Mrs. Walsh
that the services of the trust company
had been in every way satisfactory,
but that the taxes imposed upon her
property were too burdensome.
The peculiar feature Of the case lies
in the fact that Mrs. Walsh, herself,
resides in St Louis and, therefore,
claims that her personal property
should not be taxed at Lexington in
the hands Of her trustee The court
of appeals having held otherwise. and
Mrs Walsh, not feeling justified in
paying a tax rate of 500 on the
stocks, bonds and other investments
in the hands Of the Kentucky trustee,
since she could not derive any posi-
BILE good from the payment of this
tax, decided to remove the property
to the state of her residence.
A considerable part of the estate
was invested in local securities-the
bonds of local corporations and real
estate mortgages. This will mean
that the money will gradually be with
drawn from investment in these local
securities and reinvested by the St.
Louis trustee in other securities, thus
constituting a loss Of that much
money to enterprises In and around
Lexington and Fayette county. 1t
means just that much greater scarcity
of needed capital.
The Lexington Herald has been,
with great energy and skill, showing
the result of this sort of taxation on
the business interests of the state. II
points out among other things, the In
consistency in the decisions Of oul
courts, which hold that a man who
lives in one Kentucky county and has
intangible personal property, such AZ
stocks, bonds, or money, in the hand:
of a trustee in another county of Ken
lucky, must pay the tax in the county
of his residence and not in the county
where the trustee resides; but if the
owner of the property moves entirely
out of the state, then he must pay a
tax in the county where the trustee
resides, as well as pay the tax in the
state where he takes up his new resi-
dence, thus constituting double tax
afiOu

Consumed With Taxation.

In her petition asking for the
change in trusteeship Mrs. Walsh
says: plaintiffs desire, if said Clara
Bell Walsh be not entitled to a
discharge of the trustee, that
there be a change in the per-
son Of said trustee, and II 1t can
be done that the funds and property
in trust be transferred to a trustee
duly qualified under and resident in
the state of Missouri, where they
have their home. Plaintiffs state that
the reasons why a change Of trustee
is desired do not in any manner relate
to the conduct or fidelity of said trus-
tee, but are on account Of the heavy
burdens of taxation imposed on said
estate by reason Of the residence of
the trustee in a state and city differ.
ent from the home Of the beneficiary"
Court Of Appeals Decision.
The Herald adds the following fact
as to the case. Under this decision of
the court, Mrs. Walsh's personal prop
erty in the hands of the Security
Trust company would be liable for
city, state and county taxes here; and
realizing that she. a nonresident of
the state, could derive no possible
benefit from taxes paid to the city ON
her personal property. Mrs. Walsh
takes this means of getting possession
Of her property. The removal of
the estate to another state is a power
full argument against the wisdom Of
the system Of taxation in force in
kentucky; for though the invest
ments made by the trustee in local
securities are so safe and highly re-
garded as to be retained, yet when a
reinyestment Is made it is likely that
a large portion Of the funds will be
invested elsewhere, thus deprivins
this community and state Of so much
badly needed capital for its progress
and development
Poverty or Perjury.
"a prominent attorney Of this city,
in discussing before the Taxation
Committee of the Kentucky senate in.
1905 the tax system Of our state, de-
nounced our personal property tax as
necessarily leading either to poverty
or perjury, We do not know whether
any statistics on the subject are avail
able, but we think It a safe guess that
at least three-fourths of all the intan-
gible personal property, such as
bonds. notes, and cash, which is as
sessed for taxation in Kentucky. is in
the hands Of niUciaries. Is II fair
and manly thing to place upon those
least able to bear ii nearly all tha
burden OF such tax?"

CRACK At JACK
BY FRIEND JOE
Acting Governor Urged to Raze
Honolulu Hale, but Does
Not Tumble.

Acting Governor Atkinson received a
letter yesterday from Postmaster Jo-
seph G. Pratt. which in form is unique
among state papers. 1t is written with
blue pencil upon the first half of a
quire of paper, and bound with coarse
red tape. The letter abounds in puns
and classical and unclassical quota
tions. mostly in parentheses after the
style of the Honolulu Times. It was
sent in a dead letter Office envelope.
Written. moreover, in the third per-
son it plaintively states what ''Joe''
would do were he Governor and Jack"
were Postmaster, and Jack" asked
Joe to remove that old shack"
meaning the fine remaining example of
Mexican architecture of the '49 days in
Honolulu known as Honolulu Hale.
P. NJ. Joe describes the inconvenience
caused to the public by the dispatch
and reception of mails at the Bethel
street door of the postoffice. He would
have the mails handled on the other
side if the old Government building
in question were removed, and that is
where Jack" is suspicious of his fur
ther suggestion of making little park
on the site.

ernor Atkinson said yesterday after
noon, "onIy 7 don't want the space

ATTACKED BULL
WITH AN AXE

Driving a trespassing bull off the
premises with a pitchfork is quite the
acceptable mode of procedure, but cut
ting off it's tail with an axe is carrying
the joke too far. That it what Bu-
yama is accused of doing to the pet
bull belonging to DR.. J. S. McGrew. a
bull raised from infancy under the
doctors watchful eye and which he
kept in a pasture at Aiea. This detail
ing was done some months ago. but
Buyama made his first appearance in
the police court to answer the charge
yesterday.
The principal witness against him
was a japanese servant, who said that
ne had helped drive the bull out Of his
masters field and had seen the axe
used. Because of the darkness at the
time ne could not swear positively that
that was the blow that did the deed.
Doc Monsarrat also testified, giving ex-
pert evidence as TO the nature of the
injury inflicted by the axe.

.ENTOMOLOGISTS
OFF To MOLOkAI
Prof. Fr0ggatt of Australia
Will Accompany the
Party.

Prof. Walter W. Froggatt, the gov
ernment entomologist of New South
Wales, who arrived by the Manuka.
will leave next week for Moiokai, ac-
companied by Entomologist Van Dine
of the United states Agricultural Ex-
pertinent Station, and others, probably
including Acting Governor Atkinson.
Among other matters which Prof.
Froggatt is interested in are parasites
of insect enemies of sheep. Australia
is a sheep country. It is reported that
some parasitic enemy of insect enemies
of sheep have appeared among the
sheep of Molokai. though it is not
known where they have come from, and
Prof. Van Dine goes to investigate.
Entomologist Kotinsky of the Board
of Agriculture and Forestry may also
go with the party, if some insect ene-
mics of the horn fly, which he is now
propogating. are ready for transference
from the laboratory to the ranch by
that time.
Prof. Froggatt was shown the ento-
mological work Of the Board of Agri-
culture and Forestry yesterday. lie
has visited the United states Agricul~
tural Experiment Station and the

MUCH JAPANESE RICE
HAS To Be FUMIGATED

About 5000 bags of rice which arriv-

been found infected with the larvae of
a dangerous moth, and so is being
thoroughly fumigated under the direc-
ton of Alexander Craw of the Depart
ment of Agriculture and Forestry.
Carbon bisulphide is being used as the
fumigating agency. Large quantities
of japanese rice were found infected
with this last year. but since then most
OF the shipments have been fumigated
in Japan before shipment.
