The act of the Legislature of l'.MH to encourage the preservation of forests by providing for a rebate of taxes levied upon forest lands has been pronounced unconstitutional by Judge David Cam eron, of Tioga. The law was designed to permit a rebate equal to 80 per cent, of all taxes, local and county, annually assessed and paid upon timber lands of not more than fifty acres, where the owner maintained upon them not fewer thau fifty trees of not less than a pre scribed size to the acre. County Com missioners have had all sorts of trouble with the act, and its enforcement in some counties has appreciably reduced the revenue. The constitutionality of the measure was questioned from the first, and in order to have this point de termined the Commissioners of Tioga County recently refused to allow one of the rebates claimed, and the case was at once taken to court. Judge Cameron has not filed a written opinion, but is ex pected to do so, when his reason will be known. An appeal will be taken to the Supreme Court, so that there may be no uncertainty about it.

We do not build our suits all alike as trade usually does, but we study peculiarities place these beside made-to-measure suits, and you could not tell which were which. You can bring $7, $8, $9, $10, $11, 12 or 15 to this store and get the best suit for the money that money can buy.
