UNANIMOUS DECISION
BY HIGH TRIBUNAL
Court Holds That Corporation
Tax Law Is Constitutional

Washington, D. c., March 13.-The
United States Supreme court has
sustained the corporation tax. The
decision of the court was unanimous,
all of the justices concurring.
The corporation tax provisions Of
the Payne-Aldrich tariff act We're sus-
tanned today as constitutional by the
Supreme court of the United States
At 1926 Justice Day began to deliver
the decision He first announced that
it was within the power of the senate
to insert the corporation tax provis-
ion in the tariff law, which originated
in the house. Justice Day said as it
appeared to those who listened to him
that the court held the tax as an "eX-
else tax on the doing of business, F"
which is exactly the basis on which
the government has defended th9
law.
Justice Day seemed to hold that
the tax provisions were not the arbi-
trary exercise of power. This was urg-
ed in argument as one reason why the
law should be held to be unconstitu-
tional
By regarding the tax as measured
by income rather than being tax on
income, the opinion seemed, as Jus
tice Day proceeded, to hold that the
law might reach the income from
non-taXabIe sources.
Thereby a source of income of ap-
proximately $25,0OO,O00 annually was
assured to the government.
OF all the objectors to the tax
raised by suits in all parts of the
country, none of them were found suf-
ficient to nullify the law. The court
did not hold that the tax was not ap-
plicable to the real estate trust" II
Boston, which was organized, not un-
der any statute, but under common
law The law was held unconstitu-
tional, not applicable to the Mime
apolis syndicate, a real estate con-
Germ, on the ground that it was not
doing business" within the meaning
of the law.

REBELS WIN VICTORY IN
CLASH With FEDERALS
Gen. BIanCO Beat Government
Troops

Douglas, Ariz, March 13.-EIeven
federal soldiers dead, eleven wounded,
with the losses to the rebels unknown,
is the result of battle just east of
Aqua Prieta today The opposing
forces We're 500 insurgents under Gen.
Blanco and a federal force of 800 di-
rectad by Col Mora.
The battle was spectacular and was
seen by several thousand Americans,
many of whom rushed closer to the
battlefield when the firing was at its
height.
After the smoke had cleared away
i was Americans in automobiles who
gave the first aid to the injured, hur-
rying with them to where American
physicians were in readiness to assist
The Mexican army surgeons.
If any rebels were killed or wound
ed they were taken back to the noun
tains by their comrades.
After mystifying both the Mexican
officers and the Americans on the Dor
der for a week, Blanco suddenly broke
Out of the canyon leading from Cenisis
Springs and engaged the federal troops
that had been rushed into Augua
Prieta last night on special train
under command of Col. Mora
Except for few prisoners taken by
the federals, the rebels retreated in
good order. It is understood that
Blanco's entire force did not partici,
pate in the engagement.
Blanco's first move was to throw
out skirmish line drawing the fed
erals into action and ascertain their
strength. The battle lasted an hour
and the retreat that followed was for
the purpose of drawing the federals
into the canyon, where the main
body of Blanco's force was stationed.
The federals, however, after a spir-
tied pursuit, rallied and returned 10
Aua Priesta, refusing to be entrapped.
Another attack is expected tonight.
Three hundred federal troops are be-
ing rushed from Cananea to the re-
lief of the Aqua Prieta garrison and
should reach there by daylight.

that that is done. Whatever our schools
gay accomplish in fitting pupils for
higher grades of service. most of those
pupils will upon graduation work at
the ordinary levels OF service, and it
is to that class. therefore. that prime
attention requires to be given.
As an illustration of this principle
superintendent Maxwell, on the occa-
sion above referred to. insisted on the
advantage that would accrue TO So
ciety if the state or the city would
purchase land and set it apart for pur-
poses of agricultural training.
It is the land. after all. that fur
nishes the basis of our material pros
perity as nation
But that, and other expedients which
might be mentioned, serves only as an
application of the principle for which
we are contending-that those who are
in circumstances of disadvantage have
an absolute right to look to their more
favored brothers for. relief
The question that was asked a good
many centuries ago: Am my BROTH
erss keeper2" Christianity answers in
the affirmative
1t is not IN keeping with our Chris
tan profession that there should be
any boy or girl growing toward ma
ture life without Icing so equipped as
to have fair fighting chance in the
competitions of life. 1t is not simply
a matter of duty, but also one Of priyi-
lege.
That is all involved in sincere broth
erhood which feels another's burdens
as being our own burdens; others
limitations as though they were our
own handicaping.
It is to be believed that the occa-
sion at De Witt Clinton High school
dignified as it was by the presence of
Mr. Roosevelt and marked by the ap-
peal made to the distinguished audi
ence by the scene standing silently.
before us wrought out upon canvas,
will be an impulse stimulating the
board of education. and through them
the public at large. to give practical
effect to the appeal and to help ac-
tuaIize the brotherly relation subsist-
ing among all of the Heavenly Faith

CHILDREN'S PLAY
BECOMES SERIOUS
A Globe Mother Finds Two
Little Ones Almost
Suffocated.

Globe, Ariz., May 25-Hiding in a
china closet in play very nearly re-
suited in the death of two little daugh-
ters of Mrs. R. l. Sutton.
When Mrs Sutton found her two
little girls locked up in separate COM
partments of the closet in a vacant
house, one in an unconscious condition,
the other nearly unconscious. she be-
came almost as badly frightened as
the children had been frightened a few
minutes previous, when they first
found themselves in trouble.
Beatrice aged {, and Lillian. aged 5,
had been missing for about 90 or 80
minutes when their mother called
them. Not finding them anywhere
around the yard Mrs Sutton went to
look for them in the vacant house on
The adjoining lot. where the children
were in the. habit of playing Upon
entering the house she fancied she
heard muffled cries, but a hurried
search of the rooms revealed no trace
of them.
The cries apparently continuing but
much more subdued she went over the
house a second time, but the cries had
ceased, and thinking she had been mis-
taken she started through the dining
room in order to leave the house when
she noticed a small drawer above a
pair of doors was pushed out several
inches and a sudden movement within
caused her to look sharply
To her CONSERVATION she saw a little
hand sticking out Hurriedly opening
the doors she found Beatrice in an al
most strangled condition. Quickly pull
ing her out she opened thel correspond
ing doors on the other side and found
Lillian unconscious. and. in a much
more dangerous condition.
In their play Beatrice had pushed
Lillian into the compartment and
closed the door. Thinking this great
fun she Immediately crowded into the
other and pulled the door shut upon
herself Tie compartments were al
most alright and in their struggles
for breath they had almost torn their
clothes from their bodies. Had they
been imprisoned a few moments long
er they would undoubtedly have per-
ished, for when found. the children
were helplessly strangling.

FIVE MikADo ENGINES FOR
PORTLAND-SEATTLE RUN

Seattle, April 10.-Five of the TWEEN
ty Mikado locomotives, ordered by the
Hartman lines to run between Sc
attic and Portland, left Philadelphia
Friday and will be absorbed into the
system Immediately on arrival. Each
engine. equipped and ready for service
with tender. weighs 10000 pounds.
The combined weight of the twenty
engines is 8.720,000 pounds, and their
aggregate cost is $460,000. The en-
gines are not built for mountain climb
ing, and are not constructed on the
pattern of the Mallets, used by the
Milwaukee.
The slight grade between Seattle
and Portland renders the heavier types
unnecessary. The tractive force,of the
Mikado locomotives is 45,5OO pounds,
and they will be able to pull string
of loaded cars more than half mile
in length.
