Tribute to Wisconsin FIGHTERS.

That practically every commanding
officer who had any contact with the
Thirty-second division, composed of
the Wisconsin and Michigan National
Guard, has written praises of its
bravery is the statement of Adjt. Gen.
Orlando Holway.
Gen. John j. Pershing's heretofore
unpublished tribute to the Thirty-sec-

written lines of his chronology of the
major American operations in France.
A complete copy of General Pershing's
story of the war is on file in the office
of Adjt. Gen. Orlando Holway.
His tribute to the Thirty-second d.

"The Thirty-second division took
Fismes. In an eight-day battle this

Decision Hits Income Tax Law.

Judge Chester A. Fowler recently
in circuit court at Fond du Lac hand
ed down a decision which makes H.
legal the method employed by the
state tax commission in assessing
trust estates under the income tax
law.
The decision will have far reaching
effect in the operation of the law, par
ticularly in cities where there are a
number of trusts administered. The
point was raised as to the illegality of
the method in the assessment of the
estate of Benjamin Wild, Sr., a
wealthy Fond du Lac manufacturer
who left his estate in trust to his six
children the language of the will be
ing such as to create six separate
trusts. The income from the estate
was $4,000 The income tax assessor
assessed the $4,000 as a single in
come, after allowing the combined de-
duction of the six beneficiarles.
This made a high rate applicable In
computing the income tax The board
of review sustained the manner of as
sessment by the assessor from which
the trustees appealed by writ of Ger.
tiorari, claiming that the estate should
have been assessed as six separate
trusts of $4,000 EACH and using the
lower rate In computing the tax.
The court held that the point of thu
trustees was well taken and annulled
the assessment. He held that although
the trustees invested the estate in its
whole, the letter of the will did not
obige them TO actually set over a one
sixth part to each heir. Owing to the
fact that the decision strikes at one
of the fundamental principles OF the
income tax law and were it allowed
TO stand 1t would greatly lessen the
tax derived from trust estates, an
early appeal to the supreme court viii
be taken in order to obtain final in
depreciation.

While WiscCnsin's ratification of the
prohibition amendment did not change
the result, the verdict in the nation
making prohibition permanently effec-
tive one year from date will close out
an extensive industry in Wisconsin.
Wisconsin has more saloons than
any other state which has ratified, ex-
cept the state of Illinois; and in pro-
portion to her population Wisconsin
has more saloons than Illinois. Wis
cOnSin had last year 1862 persons
holding federal retail liquor tax re-
ceipts (including drug stores and all
other places retailing liquOr). AS
there are $50 druggists, il leaves 1865
saloons, cafes, hotels, restaurants and
other vendors of liquor The popula-
ton of Wisconsin is ESTIMATED 1870
2473,633, so that there are but little
more than $50 population for each
saloon.
The farmer members of the legis-
lature would limit the length of
the legislative session to 80 days.
