THE IOWA VOTER.
A. r. Spsrry, Editor.


In the Gate city of last Thursday
we have a synopsis of the recent
Decision, by Judge Dillon Of the U.
S. Circuit Court, in the case of King
and others VS.. the County Treasurer
of Linn County. Some time ago,
certain nonresident taxpayers OF
Linn County, whose taxes in the
aggregate amounted to over $500,
sued to the u. s. Circuit Court for an
Injunction to restrain the Treasurer
of that County from collecting the
Railroad Tax levied against them.
In giving his Decision, Judge Dillon
argues the case considerably, and
proceeds to animadvert somewhat
upon Decisions by the State Supreme
Court, Of which he was formerly a
member; but his remarks are rather
of interest to the lawyer than to the
general reader like ourselves. AS to
the question of Jurisdiction, Judge
Dillon is ''inclined to think" that
though several persons may unite to
apply for such an Injunction, yet In
order to bring the bill properly before
the Court the amount in dispute
must not be. less than $500 for each
person. The Judge, however, decides
as to the application upon its merits,
a. asked by counsel. He holds that
in matters Of this nature the U. s.
Courts are bound to follow the latest
Decisions of the State Supreme Courts
-overruled Decisions, howeversound
in principle, being nugatory in law
and he therefore refuses to grant the
Injunction. SO those who want to
get out Of paying their Railroad
Taxes must find some other way.
