Whin? f am not clear that the court

taxing large Incomes.
-Of course, as soon as the Income tax

there can be no doubt of the constitution

The validity of the special act of the
Iowa legislature under which tha Coun
eil Bluffs water plant waa acquired by
condemnation waa attacked In the fed
eral court her yesterday na the ground
that tha supreme court had no authority
to appoint tha three district court Judges
aa appraisers. Tha attack waa made by
tha Des Moines Waterworks company in
tha form of an application for an in
junction restraining the city from pro
ceeding under the amended general con
dom natloa law In Hs purpose to acquire
tha water plant by the same process
that' was used In Council Bluffs. '
'Judge Smith McPheraon .called upon
Judge Walter L Smith .of tha United
States circuit court of appeals and Judge
W. H. Munger uf Omaha to alt with1
him en tha bench to bear the case. The
history of tha attempt mad by ' Dev
Motnea to secure ownership of Ha water
plant ta la all material respects a repeti
tion of that of Council Bluffs. Tha city
ha been trying tn vain to buy tha plant
Last Jane a special election was hsld
for tb purpose of authorising tha issue
of bonds ta buy ths old plant or build
a new one. The necessary ordinances
wars enacted In tha following months and
m October tha way wa cleared for the
application of the statute created for the
relief of Council Bluffs.
Caart af Caadaaeaatloa.
The supreme court waa appealed to to
appoint the ' court ot condemnation In
accordance) with the provisions ot : the
statute and did so. As soon as ths court
met and organised, tha water company,
appealed to tha federal court for a re
straining order on tha ground that ths
newly devised section of tha state' gen
eral condemnation law that directed the
supreme court to nam three district
court Judges to constitute the condemna
tion court waa nnconstltutlonal for the
reason that tha stall's constitution did
not glv the court any such appointive
powers. This point waa fully argued
before tha three Judge alttlng en ban
yesterday 'afternoon by N. T. Guerneey,
attornf-y for tha water company, and by
former Attorney General H. W. flyers,
now aorporatton counsel for Des Motnex,
assisted by Robert O. Brannaa, city so
licitor of Des Moines. They pointed ut
what appealed to the unorthodox lay
mind as conclusive evidence whan 'ths
cited sections 1 and 4, article v, of tha
constitution, which seemed to eipreeely
empower the supreme court to max such
ppolnlments, the only technicality being
In the question of whether the condemna
tion eaurt wa really a court at alL This
waa mat by th argument that If It was
not a court th plaintiff oould not appeal
from It ta tb federal court. -

tha granting of a temporary writ at In
junction by Judge McPheraon at Da
Motnea oa February gt.
City Solicitor a em P. Kimball wa aa
Interested spectator at tha hearing, for
th reason that he waa the author of the
amendment to th condemnation law that
la betag attacked. Ha drew th amend
ment only after many eonsuHaUona with
Jurists of mor than a stats Wlda promi
nence, and recalled th fact yesterday
that th first suggestion t empower the
supreme court to nam th appraisers wa
mad by Judge Smith McPheraon. and
that there la no doubt In tha minds of tha
greatest lawyers In th Hat that the
constitution wa In no manner contra
vened by tn designation of the supreme
court a th appointive power of th con-
dem nation court. Much favorabla com

to hi aid tha two dlsUngulshed Jurists,
