LEGACY Taxes Are Constitutional.

the opinion of the supreme court in
the case of Abbie E. Beals against the
state of Wisconsin, involving the CON

tion law,
The court simply announced that
the complaint was dismissed and tho
constitutionality of the law upheld
In the opinion filed to-day, the chief
justice summarized the points con
tested as follows
l. The right to receive property by in
heritance or will is an inherent right sub
ject to reasonable legislation and taxa
ton but not to abrogation by the legis-
lature
.. Section I of article ! of our cOnsttu-
ton does not limit taxation to property
only and hence the legislature may levy
excise taxes upon privileges occupations,
business transfers or transactions
3. AS to the taxation of property,
there can be no classification which in
terferes with substantial uniformity Of
rate based upon value.
4 As to excise taxation there may be
proper classification and different rates
applied to different classes. and the term
uniform taxation means simply taxation
which acts alike on all persons similarly
situated.
5 The inheritance tax levied 10y chap
ter q Of the laws Of 1908 inheritance tax
lawr. Is not tax upon property or prop
crty rights in any sense, but purely an
excise tax levied upon the transfer or
transaction and merely measured in
amount by the amount Of property trans
fcrred.

Nearly 25,000 people in Il cities of

Sis exhibit prepared by the depart
ment of bacteriology of the Univer-
slty OF Wisconsin and sent out by the
university extension division of the

bitiOn has been on the road has been
1000
The interest is steadily increasing,
and at kaukauna larger proportion
of the population visited the exhibit
than at any place at which it has
thus far been shown. Difficulty is
being experienced in obtaining large

Mr., Brown is delivering a series of
lectures In towns surrounding the
places where the exhibitions are be-
ing held, and for this purpose a trunk
exhibit containing charts, illustra-
tions, etc. has been prepared to sup

ENGLAND LOSES A
SECRET TORPEDO AT SEA.

London.-A secret torpedo, by
means Of which the admiralty hoped
to achieve great results, has been lost
in the English channel somewhere
off Portland, and admiralty divers
are busy securing the bottom of the
sea in the hope Of discovering the
missing weapon.
The lost torpedo is the much-talk-
ed-of invention of Engineer-Lieuten-
ant S. HardcastIe. It is of the 21-
inch type, with the enormous range
Of 1000 yards, or 1000 yards more
than any other torpedo in existence
1t has an average speed of thirty
one knots, which is sufficient to up
set all ordinary gunnery calculations.
Many experiments have already been
made with it, and all the experts are
enthusiastic regarding its capabilities.
Indeed, it is stated that at long range
it would practically revolutionize ma
val warfare.
So far the divers have been unsuc-
cessful in their search. One torpedo
was brought to the surface, but it
proved to be one of an old pattern
which went astray months ago.-EX-
