mean that the erantor wished to evade
any law of the state,' said, Mr.. Ram

the expense and delay of probating an

shall make careful survey of all such
deeds and proceed to see that the
transfer taxes are collected"

Discovering Where Property Has Been
Transferred to Escape Idaho In
heritance Tax Law.

BOISE, Mar. 20-(SpeciaD State
Tax Commissioner Ramstedt, through
the painstaking work of his deputies
acting under his orders, has unearthed
taxes in the state to add a goodly sum
of money to the general fund and
thereby reduce the direct tax levy to
a considerable extent as soon as it is
paid.
The law provides that any property
within the state, or any interest, shall
pay the transfer tax, not only when
actually inherited upon the death of
the grantor, but "any property trans
ferred by deed, grant sale or gift,
made in anticipation of death of the
grantor."
Commissioner Ramstedts deputies
find that in northern Idaho no effort
has been made to secure the transfer
tax upon property in Idaho when the
owners lived in another state, al
though the law expressly states that
this property shall be taxed
Some Easy; Some Hard.
1T will be comparatively easy" said
Mr.. Ramstedt, ito ascertain any deeds
to property which have been given to
heirs in anticipation of death, because
these are a matter of public record
but the law also provided that all 9th
er property, such as stocks and bonds,
bank or mining stock, shall be taxed
also, when inherited, whether through
the death of the grantor or by previ-
