REVENUE CASE GUES OVER! Responden's Not Rendy te Prooed with the Argumet Before Suprems Court. DUFFIE FILES SUPPLEMENTAL OPINION i | [ { Combats the Argument of Commi foner Kirkpatrick that the Law is Valld in Its Insurance Feature, (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Nov. 30.—(Spec.al)—The tev- enue law case ir all prooadlity will not be argued before the supreme court LOMOrrow, as was sd. This merning the attor neys ior the respondents in the case asked for turther time in which to prepare thelr briefe, and it is likely ihis will be granted, the arguments going over until the next sitting of the court, December 15. Aitorney | T. J. Maloney, who 1s act.ng in the interest | of the business men of Omaha, will have | his bifef filed in the morning, and probab #0 will John L. WeBster, representing the Omaha Street Raliway company. Hallack Rose, one of Lincoln's prominent attorneys, | Las come to the rescue of the law, and he | will have a brief in its defense in just as | soon as he can get it prepared. In the meintime Commissioner Duffie, who as one of (the commissiogers heard the arguments in the case when It was flrst submitted and who declared the entire luw invalld because of the unconstitutionality of the Insurance sections, sifll beileves that | way and today filed a supplemental opinion answering some of the contentions of Come | missione.

Judge Duttie calls attention to section 1, articie 9, of the Iilinois constitution, which gives the gemeral assembly power to tax “persons or corporations owning or using “Wganchises or privileges In such manner as It shall from time to time direct by general law uniform as to [the class upon which It operates.” He then cites section | 1, article % of the Nebraska constitution, calling attentlon to the tax upon fran- chies. He continues: “It will be noticed that our constitution directs that the franchises of corporations and other parties having franchises are to e taxed as property upon a valuation whi.e the Illinois constitution franchises and privileges are put in the second subdivi- slons of the section and may, as heid by the aupreme court of that siate, be taxed otherwise than on an assessment which determines the valuation. I do not think It can be successfully clafied that the several classes mentioned | in the second subdivision of the constitution can be subdivided or further classified | than is done by the constitution itself, it being the evident purpose of the framers of the instrument to allow the legislature to levy a tax upon the business conducted by the several classes named and the busi- ness pursued by each class must be taxed by a general law uniform as to each. In other “words, the constitution should be construed as'if it read, “and it the (legis. lature) shall have power to tax peddiers, auctioneers, brokers, ete., in such manner as it shall direct by general law uniform a8 to each of the classes above named." There must have been some object in view by the framers of the constitution in taking out of the latter part of the sec- ton the property of a corporation known as a franchise and putting it in the first Part of the section which requires all prope erty to be taxed upon a valuation and that object undoubtedly was to depart from n rule of the Illinois constitution and to require franchises to he assessed and taxed a8 other property. as the section with that exception {8 a copy of the Hlinois consti- tution, which was followed and adopted lMterally in many respects. It this be true and the construction which I place upon the constitution fs a correct construction, it follows that the classification contended for by Judge Kirkpatrick cannot be mads and that all property of a corporation, In- cluding its franchise, should be assessed and taxed as {8 tangible property of the corporation and not in some other method devised by the legislature. 011 Inspector's Office Pays.

RUMOR 1S OF Nation DOUGLAS, Wyo., Nov. 30 —Charles Wes- ton, state auditor of Nebraska, who was arrested hera on charges connected with the closing of the Denecke bank of Casper, tays the affairs of the bank will be ad- justed to the entire satisfaction of the other stockholders. A message from Casper says that the stockholders will settle in full with the de P and will immediately reorganize the bank Into a national institution tors Plan to Pinch Weston. (From a Staft Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Nov. %.—(Special.)—The ar- rest of Auditor Weston in Wyoming, charged with taking in deposits in his bank at Casper when he knew the same was Insolvent, was the occasion of many conferences of his friends at the state house today. Every state house officer ex- pressed surprisc and each believed thut the | auditor would come out of his trouble with clean hands. It is the belief of Weston's friends here that it is the intention of the depositors of the Wyoming bank to hold Weston there and compel him to settle in full all the bank's shortage, it being their bellef that he is financially able to do so. Just what Weston s worth even his intimate friends have no idea, but it is known that he can command most any amount of money through his relatives, one of whom, it is sald, has placed $00,000 at his Gisposal The bank of W. A. Denecke & Co. which it is charged Weston s a member, as listed in the Annual Bank Reporter, does not contain the name of the auditor By the Reporter it Is shown that W. A Denecke Is cashier and H. L. Fuller nssist- ant cashier. At the time the reports were compiled and published the bank had out- standing loans of $65,000, deposits of $100,000 and undivided profits of $2,040. The capital stock was $,00. But this latter s not shown by the Reporter. The bank's refer- ences are the Omaha National bank, Chey- enne Natonal and the Stock Growers' Na- tional of Cheyenne. Mr. Weston is also president of the Northwestern bank at Hay Springs, his home town, which has a capital stock of $15,00. According to the Reporter this bank ha# loans aggregating $40.00, deposits of 345,000 and surplus and undivided profits of §2,000. The statement of this bank, just filed with the State Banking Board, in re- sponse to a call recently sent out, shows the bunk to be In excellent condition So far as ascertainable here Mr. Weston has never at any recent time asked financlal assistance to help out the affairs ot | of the Wyoming bank, and it is the general opinfon of his friends that his arrest was just as much & surprise to him as it was to the people of the state, who have hereto- fore considered him one of the most re- llable afid most conservative of business men. Mr. Weston left here Wednesday afternoon and rode out on the same train with Governor Mickey, but other than men- tioning to the governor that he was going to Wyoming he said nothing of his business there.
