RAILROAD TAXATION.
THE GREAT CASE IN THE sUPPEME COURT
COUNTY OF SAN MATEo. CAL, vs. SOUTHERN

THE GREAT CASE IN THE SUPREME COURT.
COUNTY OF SAN MATEo. CAL. vs. SOUTHERN
PACIFIC RAILROAD COMPANY.
The great railroad tax case now before
the Supreme Court of the United
States is attracting such wide attention
and involves such important questions
as to deserve full statement and
careful study. Briefly, it is to be
settled whether men who form Il part
nership or corporation lose the right
they would have if they continued to do busi-
ness individually land specially whether
they can be taxed on their debts as on
what they own, while if doing business separate
Iy they could not be taxed on theirdebts. The
alleged conflict between the Kelrney Z onstl-
tuition of California and the Constitution OF the
United States is also involved The
whole case is set forth in the able
opinion of Judge Field given below.
1t is on appeal from this decision that
the case comes now before the full bench of
the Supreme Court in Washington.

ORIGIN OF THE CASE.

The county of San MateO, Cal. brought ac-
ton under a statute TO recover state ana
taxes claimed to be due from the southern Pacinc ka
road Company agreed that if the first separate
defence set up in the companys answer shouu DC ei
good Judgment final should go FOR the defendant other
wise for the plaintiff The main points in that defence
were that all the companys property was assessed ho
exemption being made OF mortgage securing indebted
ness that the company had no opportunity 20 app! lo
relief and that general the assessment ana taXauo
were unconstitutional The case was argaed before Jus
tice Field and Judge sawyer August 2l-29 1857 ana
the opuIous were read in the Circuit Court at san
Francisco on September 25 Tnc Court held that tne
assessment on winch the were levied was inVad
and void and that final judgment must go Tor the
company.

New Mining Decision.

The Secretary of the Interior has
decided in the case of the Rob Roy
mineral lode, Helena, Montana, that
where two applications are made, one
of which has been abandoned, the
ground in question comes within the
purview of the second application and
is subject thereto. Previous to this
decision, it has been held by the De-
partment, in case of the abandon
ment of land in controversy, the
Abandoned tract should revert to the
public domain. In the case of the
Bobtail vs.. the Caledonia, in Dead
wood, Dakota, the Secretary declares
that after the claimant has obtained
a judgment in his favor in a court of
competent jurisdiction, he is at lib
erty to take the necessary steps
pointed out by the statutes to obtain
a patent. He need not wait till the
time for claiming an appeal to a
higher court has expired. He may
proceed, subject to being again stay
ed by appeal; but il the appeal is
taken the steps which he had taken
subsequent to the judgment towards
obtaining a patent are held to be
valid, if he be finally successful in
the higher court.

How Nevada /. Kept Down.

How Nevada Il Kept Down.
The unprosperous condition of the
State of Nevada, says the San Fran
cisco Examiner, is in part due to the
failure Of the Comstock mines to yield
gold and silver as of old. But the
Comstock is not yet dead, and there
are many other mining sections in
the State that are known to be rich in
the precious matals. Besides, min
ing Is not all that Nevada has to rely
upon. As in the early days of Cali
fornia our people scarcely thought the
State worth considering as an agricul-
tural region, so Nevada has been de-
risively termed the 'ssagebrush State"
desolate aud useless for any purpose
but mining. Even in Nevada, how
ever, agriculture Is making progress,
and year by year the area of land
brought under cultivation Is likely to
increase. Many a spot now barren
and uninviting will be made 10 yield
good returns to the husbandmen.
And, withal, various industries will
gain a foothold and thrive in Nevada,
when the clutch of the railroad extor-
ton Is taken from her throat.
Nevada has suffered fully as much
~ California, II not more. from the
greed Of these common carriers who
defy the law and natural right and
are able to enforce their own hard
will. Many instances have been
brought to our attention which illus
trate the g~rievous burden under
which our neighboring State has
struggled. Let us give one or two.
A man at Eureka imported a car
load of oil from Cleveland. The
freight from Cleveland to Ogden was
$3.50; from Ogden to Palisade, how
ever, the Central Pacific cormorant
charged S2S5. 1t was simply a swim
dle-a palpable, gross, heartless rob
berry. But what could the cheated
man do about IL? The Central Pacific
was master of the situation. 1t had
no competitor. 1t controlled The Leg
islature and prevented regulation.
The nan was pow erless.
Another instance: A man at Elko
imported from the East two barrels OF
whisky. The weight was put down at
one thousand pounds. The charge to
Ogden was Sl2 Is. The Central Pacific,
for carrying it from Ogden to Elko,
extorted from him SIS so. Ofcourse,
1t MAS robbery. There is no other
name for it. But what could he do
about itf Simply pay the bill aud
curse the robbers with hated breath
These outrageous extortions have
b,en practiced IN Nevada ever since
the road was built. They have done
more to crush the State than any
o.her influence. Until the grip Of the
railroad robbers Is broken the prog
ress of Nevada must be slow and
painful.

Cheap Way of Transporting Prisoners

Cheap Way of Transporting Prisoners
Last week Thomas Morority was
convicted at Hawthorne Of selling
liquor to Indians, and sentenced to
pay q fine of $50 or twenty-five days in
the county Jail at Aurora, twenty
miles away. The Aurora Herald says
that on hearing his sentence Thomas
grabbed himself by the coat collar,
pocketed his commitment, and yank-
ed himself off for the county Jail, ar
irving there Wednesday night.
Thomas hunted up the Sheriff, read
the order of the Court to him, and
was rewarded for bis straightforward,
manly course of procedure by a bu TX
in the county jail. This is the Sec
ond time / n the past four weeks that
prisoners have been forwarded from
Hawthorne to the county seat under
their own charge, and it looks like a
farce to Il man up a tree.

a Seventh Sense.
British Medical Journal.


Sir William Thomson, the eminent
professor of mathematics in the Uni
versity of Glasgow, in his inaugural ad-
dress delivered last week as president
OF the Midland institute, at Birmino-
ham, preached the idea of the existence
of magnetic sense. This sense he
| called the seventh sense, to distinguish
| it from our other six senses-namely,
those sight, hearing, taste, smell, heat
and force. He said that, in speaking of
possible magnetic sense, he in no way
supported that wretched, groveling SUI
perstition of animal magnetism, spirit
ualism, mesmerism or clairvoyance, of
which they had heard so much. There
was no seventh sense of a mystic kind.
Clairvoyance, and so on, was the result
OF had observation chiefly, mixed up
with the effects of willful 1mposture,
acting on an innocent and trusting
mind. If there was no distinct magnet
&c sense, it was a very great wonder
there was not. The study of magnet
ism was very reconcile subject. One
very wonderful discovery that was
made IL electric magnetism was
made by Faraday, and worked
out very admirably by Foucauld,
an excellent French experimental,
showing that a piece of copper or a
piece of silver let fall between the poles
of magnet would fall down slowly, as
if through mud. Was it conceivable
that, if piece of copper could scarcely
move through the air between the poles
OF an electric magnet, a human being
or living creature in the same position
would experience no effect? Lord
Lindsay got an enormous magnet, SO
large that the head of any person wish
ing to try the experiment could get well
between the poles, and the result of the
experiment was marvellous, the marvel
being that nothing was perceived. Sir
William Thompson, however, was not
willing to admit that the investigation
was complete. He could not think that
the quality of matter in the air, which
produced such prodigious effect ON a
piece of metal, could be absolutely
without any perceptible effect whatever
on living body. He thought the ex-
pertinent was worth repeating; and it
was worth examining whether or not
an exceedingly powerful magnetic force
was without perceptible effect on a liv-
ing vegetable or animal body. His
own speculations had led him to con-
clude that there might be a seventh or
sense, and that it was posi-
BILE an exceedingly powerful magnetic
effect might be produced on living bod
les that could no. be explained by hest,
force or any other sensation.
