The history of the case of the State vs. the
Maine Central Railroad Company which the
Supreme court of the United States has just
decided in favor of the State is briefly this:
In 1874 the legislature of the State assessed
tax upon the several railroad companies in
the State. Several companies paid promptly,
but other failed to do SO. Accordingly the
legislature of the next year, 1875, passed IAN
act to enforce the collection of taxes upon
approval of this act, steps were taken by the
Treasurer to collect of delinquent companies
the tax assessed under the act of March 4,
1874 George l.. Ward of Boston, a stock
holder in the Maine Central Railroad Company
filed his bill in equity in the Circuit Court Of
the United States, alleging that the act referred
to "would, if enforced against said Maine
Central Railroad Company, impair the obliga.
ton of the contract contained in the charter OF
said company, in this, that it authorizes the
levying and assessment upon said company of
tax other than that as provided in said
charter" They prayed the court to enJoin the
Treasurer from collecting the tax. The ques-
tion whether or not an injunction should be
issued was argued at the April term of the
court, 1875, temporary injunction granted,
and the effort to collect the tax from the
Maine Central Company for time suspended.
In 1876, suit was brought against the Maine
Central Railroad Company in the Supreme Ju-
dical Court of Maine, to recover the tax of 1875,
$40, 093. %. The case was duly argued, and af-
ter full hearing a decision was rendered in
favor of the state. The Maine Central Com
pany did not acquiesce in this decision, and
carried the cause on a writ of error into the
Supreme Court of the United States 1.-THE last
appeal). The writ of error was recently heard,
the State being represented at the court by the
able Attorney General, L. A. Emery. The de-
cisioa, as stated has just been rendered, and it
is in favor of the State. The company has re-
sisted the payment of taxes from the first fiscal
year assessed, and are indebted to the state as
follows:

o'clock yesterday afternoon. Mr. 1. P. Far
rington presented a petition asking that he be
allowed to lay drain from his new houses on
the land running from Cumberland to Congress

ton drew out a discussion which occupied the
attention of the Board for one whole hour. It
was finally referred to the committee on drains
and sewers With instruction to confer with the
committee on public buildings and report at the
regular meeting on Monday night.
The bond of Eli Wing weigher of kay, and

A SMALL PETITIoN-The Mayor has in his
possession q petition now containing about
eight names asking that Officer Lawton be re-
tired from duty on the police force for an al
legged uncalled for shooting. This petition for.
merly contained about a dozen names, but
several of the petitioners have called on the
Mayor and asked that their names be stricken
off, as they signed the paper under misap-
prehension. Tim Kennedy is at the bottom of
the matter, and he charges that while trying to
escape the officer, who was trying to arrest
him, that he (the officer discharged his revolt
yer at him. The case has been thoroughly
looked into, and it is said that the Mayor is
satisfied that the officer did not exceed his
duty. The case will probably never be heard
from again,

The Atlantic & st Lawrence aud Dexter 8,
Newport companies have resisted the payment
of taxes, awaiting, doubtless, the decision in
this case; but in referring to the opinion of our
state court it will be seen that the decision
which has just been reaffirmed at Washington,
only applies to this particular company' the
Maine Central, and does not exclude the other
companies from setting up claims for exemp-
ton under their charters. Hence new actions
would be necessary to determine the question
of their exemption and enforce the collection
of taxes upon them, and this has accordingly
been done.
The tax of the Atlantic aud St. Lawrence
Railroad Co., at this time amounts to Sill, $685.
80, aid that of the Dexter and Newport to S.
957 so.
Under an enactment of the last legislature,
the Maine Central Co. have the right to appear
before the Governor and Council for an abate-
ment of a portion Of the tax; and they will of
course avail themselves of that privilege.
