considers tho claim that inasmuch as
the tax IS not levied upon partnerships
or individuals, but is put on corpora.
lions and Joint stock companies, it is
therefore assessed on franchises.
Distinction to Be Made
"The distinction between part ner-
ships and individuals on the one hand
and corporations and Joint stock compa-
MES on the other is explained as not
proceeding from the presence or absence
of franchises, ''but from tho wide and
important diversity of legal rules af
fecting the two kinds of business of
these two groups.
Even if this tax were regarded
merely as a tax upon the exercise or
use Of franchises,n continues Mr..
Bowers, ''instead of being tax on the
entire conduct or transaction Of bust
ness under many special conditions, 1t
would be altogether different from 4
direct tax on the franchises themselves
y tax upon the use Of franchises in
business is no more direct tax upon
the franchises than tax upon the use
of property in business is a direct tax
upon the property so used.?'
Finally on this point Mr., Bowers
contends that franchises cannot be the
specific subject of tho tax, as no tax
is actually done.
Not an Income Tax.
The second point MIR Bowers seeks to
make is that the tax Is not direct tax
upon the shares OF the stockholders. nor
upon the income. The reasons given for
the tax not being direct tax or property
is held to apply TO the claims that 1t is
OF the stockholders,
The third point IS that the tax does not

become direct in the special case Of a
company engaged In the business Of hand =
ling or dealing in real estate. Five OF
the fifteen cases for consideration by the
court involve such corpora tions. Mr.
Bowers claims they raise no constitutional
question, but only the query as 10 wheth-
er they are engaged In carrying on or
doing business II any corpora ton Is not
so engaged. IL is not reached by the
statute, he argues.
The fourth point Mr.. Bowers seeks TO
establish Is that the tax is not an infrac-
ton of the general power Of the states TO
authorize the formation Of corporations
and stock companies. Even II the tax
were on franchises. IT still would not be
n tax on the legislative power OF the
state. Corporate franchises, he adds
grow out OF an offer by the state and an
act Of free choice Of election by the per-
sons TO whom the offer Is extended.
Hence. he concludes, franchises arc Great
cd not by the state, but by the persons
which accept them.

NEW INVENTION OF THIEVES
Philadelphia shoplifters Equipped
With a Really Ingenious
Device.

Wholesale thefts from a score or
more of Philadelphia stores were dis
covered recently through the arrest
of two men and a young woman, and
from $4,000 to $4,000 worth of stolen
goods were recovered in their room.
The detectives entered the room
just as the three were Unloading
goods of various kinds from the big
paper boxes. Hawley, Upon whom
cards we're later found giving the
name William HALEY, character
comedian" demanded to know who
they were and what they wanted. The
detectives soon enlightened him and
told the three they were under ar
rest.
The boxes were especially arranged
for making thefts easy. the arrange
ment being something new even in
the varied arts of shoplifters. A hole
about IL inches long and 5 inches
wide was cut in each box, and the
box was so carried under the arm
with this hole next to the side Of the
body that It was almost impossible
to discover it. The accused would
each buy some triaing article ard pay
for 1t. The bill was then taken and
attached TO the box in such a way
that 1t could be seen readily by the
salespeople and store detectives.
Each of the thieves would operate at
different counters, as a rule, but
sometimes one of tho mon opd tba
womap would operate together.

HEINOUS CRIME CHARGED
Unnatural Father is Accused of
 Host RevoIting Crime

Jonesboro, May 11.-One of the most revolting crimes that ever occurred in this county was brought to light today when Con- stable Bert Phillips of Nettleton, aided by number of citizens, captured Tom Powell, aged 45, who is charged with incest on the person of his own daughter, Ida, aged 22, and Powell is now in jail here on charge of rape.
 esterday the father loaded up on mean whiskey, hired buggy and took the girl out for a drive, and going into the woods, forced her to spend the night with him.
 The girl tells an awful story of how she suffered through the night in the clutches of this worse than beast.
 This morning Constable Phillips instituted a search for Powell, the neighbors having become alarmed for the girls safety. He found them, but tie father showed fight and 1t was only after several shots had been exchanged that Powell surrendered.
 The girl was bleeding and torn, and in agony she broke down and told of the awful treatment she had received.
 The people are highly wrought up over the matter, but there is no fear of a lynching.
