LEGAL TENDER NoTEs AND TAxEs-The
Supreme Court holds that the Act Of Con

has no reference to State. county or city taxes.
But here is the language Of the Court:
The question then presented for determine
ton is this: Are the notes of the United
States thus receivable for State and county
taxes under the Act OF Congress- On the
argument the question whether it is within
the Constitutional power Of Congress 10 make
these notes legal tender in payment of debts

country differ and until il is legitiuatelv and
directly before Us We have no disposition

to Intimate any opinion upon 1t. The Act
does not. in our judgment, have any reference
to taxes levied under the laws Of the State.
