THE WISE ONE AND
THE DEREL|CT BET
And tho Derelict Says He Is Open to
More of tho Kind.

One of the wise ones picked up
more or less of a surprise last even
ing. The talk was upon the subject
Of the worlds championship; the
wise one ventured the opinion that
Philadelphia would win. when a per-
son who is taken seriously by none
of the initiate" and is considered a
COAX" by the supersapient, made a
proposition to bet 80 to 20 that the
Giants would take the flag over the
Philadelphias There were several by
ISLANDERS, and it was up to the wise
one to either do something or vacate
the throne. He pleaded the time
honored and entirely adequate reason
for not calling the bet that he al
ready had all of it he felt justified in
taking, whereupon the derelict rather
astonished the wise one and the by
ISLANDERS by offering 25 to 5. This
rather put il up to the wise one with
hardly any alternative, and the bet
was booked" and then the derelict
nearly took the fire from under the
flues of the bunch by offering even
money on Brady O'Neill against the
field. This was made an object OF
ridicule for a few moments. but the
"wheely" one stood firm, and the wise
one finally juggled it until tomor-
row" And he is open to three more
25 to bets on the pennant. Anyone
interested can leave word with the
sporting editor of The Republican.

TALKS
At THEATER
A Small But Enthusiastic
Gathering Greets Tucson
Man Who Tells People
Why He Should be Chos-
en- Senator.

a democratic speech that possessed
| more Of the elements of dignity than
one has been in the habit of hearing
in Phoenix for the past several weeks
was delivered last night in the Third
Avenue theater by Marcus a. Smith
of Cochise county, democratic candi-
date for the senate.
II was owing TO the inclemency Of
the weather that the place of meet
ing was transferred from the city hall
plaza to the Third Avenue theater
The rain interferred in marked degree
with the attendance as the auditorium
of the building was not more than
two thirds filled. However, it was
really enthusiastic gathering Mr.
Smith was applauded on his appear
ance upon the platform and there was
frequent applause all the way through
his address
J. II. Langston called the meeting
to order and introduced Judge A c.
Baker, who spoke briefly in a manner
highly complimentary to Mr.. Smith
who. he said. probably has more
friends in all sections of the country
than any other member of either
branch of congress. He also spoke in
the highest terms of Mr. Smiths
services while representing Arizona
in the national legislature and closed
with the prediction that he is certain
To be nominated and elected.
Mr.. Smiths speech was devoted
largely to a discussion of the tariff
He took the usual democratic ground
on this matter and said he stands
squarely with the democratic party
upon that question-in favor of a
tariff for revenue only. He denounced
the protective tariff as the mother OF
trusts and said that so far from
protecting American labor il acts
merely to make dearer the articles
that the American laborer has to buy.
There was one thing noticeable
about the speech and that was It's
tone of fairness to other candidates
There was not a hint of abuse in
anything the speaker said; and i'm
this matter his address was in mark
ed contrast to some that have been
delivered in various sections of the
territory
The story Of the speakers early
NE IN Arizona contained an element
of humor. when l landed in Tomb
stone l had just $3.50" Mr.. Smith
said. AS it happened / was taken
i'll and had to submit to a serious
operation. | have always thought
that while l was under the influ-
ence OF the anaesthetic the doctor
and the hotel man took an inventory
OF my personal estate; for when r.
recovered 1 found that / owed the
doctor $500 and the hotel man just
$50. / stepped out upon the streets
Of Tombstone without a cent and ]
have managed to maintain that COM
Portable attitude ever since"
There was quite a sprinkling of
women at this meeting and they
seemed to manifest as much interest
and enthusiasm as the men. Consid-
cring the size of the crowd the event
was quite successful and il can be
truly said that Mr.. Smith INDUCED
in no language to cause him any loss
of prestige with his party here.

CORPORATION TAX ACT
Held CONSTITUTIONAL
SUPREME COURT OF UNITED
STATES CPHOLDS LAW.
Opinion, Delivered by Justice Day,
Goes Into Detail to Meet OBJ
iectiOns Raised.

Washington, March 13.-In a unani-
nous opinion the supreme court Of the
United States today held that the
corporation tax provisions of the
Payne-Aldrich tariff act are consti-
tutional. Thus ended controversy
waged almost continuously since
President Taft first suggested their
enactment to congress. The opinion
was announced by Justice Day, who
was appointed to the supreme court
bench from Ohio in 1903. 1t was an
elaborate treatment of the subject,
containing approximately 10000
words. About half an hour was spent
by the Justice orally explaining to the
bar the position of the court, the
printed opinion being used basis for
the remarks.
Just What It Seems.
The Justice first determined that
the tax was just what it claimed to
be in the act, namely, an excise tax
on the doing Of corporate business,
and not direct tax on the ownership
of property. With that point decided
the Justice took up at more or le
length the various objections urged
against the tax as an excise tax and
disposed of them to the satisfaction o.
the court. Finally he interpreted the
law so as to apply to real estate
companies and the so-called public
service corporations, but not to "real
estate trusts
Tax on Use.
The opinion predicates that the TAX
is imposed not upon the franchise OF
the corporation irrespective OF their
use in business, nor upon the property
of the CORPORATION, but upon the doing
of corporate or insurance business
End with respect to the carrying on
hereof, in a sum equivalent to l per
cent. of the entire net income over
and above $4,000 received from all
sources during the year; that is, When
imposed in this manner it is a tax
upon the doing of business with the
advantages which inhere in the pecu-
Harities of corporate or joint STOCK
organization of the character. descrlo-
ed. AS the latter organizations share
many benefits of corporations it may
be recognized generally as tax on do
ing of business in corporate capacity
Affects Foreign Companies.
"This view of the measure OF the
tax is strengthened when We note thai
as to organizations under the laws o1
foreign countries the amount OF ne'
income over and above $4,000 includes
that received from business transac'
tions and capital invested in the Unit
ed States, the territories, Alaska and
District of Columbia
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1911-03-17

to select the measure and objects OF
taxation devolves on the congress and
not On the courts. and such selections
are valid unless constitutional imlta-
tions are over-stepped."
The court was able to find no such
violation of constitutional limitations.
With regard to real estate compa-
MES the Justice said:
eve think it clear that corporations
ORGANIZED for the purpose Of dolng
business and actually engaged in such
activities as leasing property, COL
/ lecting rents, managing Office build
ings, making investment Of profits or
leasing ore lands and collecting roy
alties, managing Wharves, dividing
profits, and in some cases investing
the surplus, are engaged in doing
business within the meaning OF the
statute and, in the capacity necessary
to make such organization. subject to
! the law"
Railways Subject to Tax.
The court held that it was not part
of the essential governmental func-
tions Of a State to provide means of
transportation, supply artificial light
water and the like. Therefore, it, was
determined that the Coney Island &
Brooklyn Railroad company, and the
Interborough Rapid Transit Of New
York are subject to the tax.
After dealing at length with nu-
merous other objections to the law
Justice Day came to the attack upon
if based on the so-called publicity fea-
lures of the provisions which require
certain returns to be made to the gov
ernment as an aid in the assessment
of a tax.
"The tax being, as we have held.
said the justice, within the legitimate
powers of congress, It IS for that BODY
to determine what means are appro-
pirate and adapted to the purpose oi
making the laws affectual."
Covers Fifteen Cases.
The opinion thus summarized coV-
ers Is of the IS cases in which the
constitutionality Of the tax was as
sailed. The non-applicability of the
act to real estate trusts" was &C.
cided in the other three cases. III
these cases the law was held inap'
plicable to the Cushing Real Estate
trust of Boston on the ground thai
the trusts were not organized under
the statutes of the State or OF the
United States, but existed merely un-
der the common law. The Mlnneapo-
lis Syndicate was held not liable tC
the tax, because the real estate which
it held before consolidation had gone
out of it's control and therefore
the syndicate was mot doing bus:
ness within the meaning Of the law

Answering the various objections
raised against the tax, Justice Day
first took up the contention that it
was a direct tax and unconstitutional
for the same reason that the famous
income tax law was declared uncon-
stitutional in 1895. He pointed out
that the income tax was held to be
direct because imposed upon property.
On Doing Business.
I'm the present case" said Justice
Day, 1.-The tax is not payable unless
there is carrying on or doing of
business in the designated capacity,
and this is made the occasion for the
tax, measured by the standard pre-
scribed."
Justice Day next took up the objec-
ton that the provisions in question
levied a tax upon the exclusive right
of a State to grant corporate fran
chises in thai it taxed franchises.
which are the creation of a State in
it's sovereign right and authority.
1--WE Think" says the opinion. 1T
is the result of the cases heretofore
decided in this court, that such busi-
ness activities, though exercised be-
cause OF State created franchises, are
not beyond the taxing power of the
United States.
Too Much to Grant.
". 1t can not be supposed that
it was intended that it should be with
in the power of individuals acting un-
der State authority to thus impair and
limit the exertion Of authority which
may be essential TO national exis-
tence."
Justice Day lex addressed himself
to the objection that the tax was un-
equal and arbitrary.
"The thing taxed" he said. lis not
the mere dealing in merchandise III
which the actual transactions may ba
the same. whether conducted by in
diyiduals"or corporations. but the tax
is laid lpon the privileges which ex-
ist il conducting business with the
advantages which inhere in the cor
porate capacity of those taxed and
which are not enjoyed by private
firms or individuals.
Pay For Advantages.
"These advantages are obvious and
have led to the formation of such
companies in nearly all branches OF
trade. The continuity of the business
without interruption by death or dis
solution, the transfer of property in
terests by the disposition of shares
of stock, the advantages OF bushes
controlled and managed by corporate
directors, the general absence of in
dividual ability, these and othe:
things inhere in the advantage OF bu'
mess thus conducted which do not eS-
ist when the same business is co
Quoted by private individuals or par
nership."
Measurement of the tax by the ne1
income from all sources, according tc
the opinion, is not so unequal and ar
bitrary to the outside of the authority
of the taxing power.

SOUTH IS TIE PLACE
FOR POOR PEOPLE
Champ Clark Amends Greeley to Mod.
ern Effect-His Chance of the
Presidency.

Chicago, March, 14.-Congressman
Champ Clark, of Missouri, the coming
speaker of the national house of rep
resentatives, today amended the ia
nous saying of Horace Greeley. say
ing: "Go West young man, go West, "
and made it to read: "Go South my
boy, go South.
"The South is the place and my
advice is to go there. You won't
eat as much as you do here in the
North. If you do. you'll die. Your
clothing must be lighter and there
fore less expensive. You won't have
to buy fuel to speak of and you can
allow your borses and cattle to Craze
out of doors the year around.
Poor Mans Land.
"Believe me. the South is the poor
mans land. and you'll live to see the
day when the South is going to be the
richest part of the United States.
"Why, say, I know man who
made $4,000 in one year off three
acres of lettuce. Sounds fishy, doesn't
it? True, though, for I took the pains
to find out. It's a great country, boys,
and if you want a good tip follow my
advice. That is. go early to the
Southland and grow up with its prog
ress."
Mr.. Clark admitted he would
make a good Democratic candidate
for president at the next election. say
ing:
Might Go Further.
"Well, the Democratic party might
go further and fare wcIse-and [
think it will"
= He prophesied victory for the reci-
procity measure and said of the tariff:
Eve can get by Mr.. Taft with a
few schedules, we hope, where we
never could pass with whole bill"
Mr.. Clark intimated that if Fepub-
licans in the next house did not like
committee appointments, they could
go hang for all the good it would do
them. Only he said it this way:
"Those who don't like the appoint
ments can take advantage'of the great
American privilege of cussin'."

special to Times Republican.
Webster City. Feb. 3-City officials
are in receipt Of the report Of the Iowa
waterways commission, which survey
ed the Boone river last summer with a
view to locating power sites. Three
power dams are recommended, one in
the north part of Webster City and
two south OF the city at the old Tun-
nell and Bone mill sites.
Exhaustive reports are given on the
probable amount of water that could
be developed, especially from the dam
In this city. A twenty -six-foot dam
mere would form reservoir seven
miles long and furnish ample power
for the light and power and water
plants, as Well as furnish an ideal
place for boating. etc. 1t is estimated
that dam Of the kind would cost but
s35, 600, tho local authorities place the
figure higher.
Boone river was selected as a suit
able river to survey because it is twp
ical OF the medium sized streams of
the state, and hence what can be done
along its banks in the way Of power
sites can be done along all medium
sized streams in the state. The Web
ster City Commercial League will make
an attempt to put into practice the
recommendations Of the WATERWAYS

struction Of the power dam in this
