THE Supreme Court of the United States
recently decided, in the case of Judge
Bufinton, probate judge of one of the
districts of Massachusetts, for the State,
that his salary as State officer was not
liable to the payment of income tax.
With this fact in view, Judge Barton, Of
Baltimore, has called at the Treasury De-
partment to consult regarding the tax al
ready paid by him (some 5000 on his
salary as State judge during the time the
income tax has been paid. 1t is contended
by some Treasury officials that if this
deci:iou Of the Supreme Court Of the
United States is carried into effect, the in
come tax can he collected from the salary
Of no State officer, not even from that Of
