NORTHERN PACIFIC TAX CASE.
The Judgment of the Dakota Supreme
Court Reversed,

WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. THE supreme
court of the United States today decided the case
of the Northern Pacific Railroad Company, appel
liant, from the supreme court of Dakota. Suit was
brought in the district court of Trail county, Dak
by the present appellant against the treasurer of
the county, to enjoin him from enforcing the col
lection of taxes assessed on the lands of the COM
pany in that county. The verdict was for the de-
fendant. The supreme court of the territory
affirmed the judgment. This court now reverses
the Judgment and the case is remanded, with
directions to decree to be entered perpetu-
ally enjoining the treasurer of Trail county from
any further proceedings to collect the taxes. This
action is based upon the provisions of the act of
Congress which prohibits the conveyance of any
granted lands to the company until the costs of
survey have been paid to the government. Until
these costs are paid the government retains the
title as security, and this security would be
neutralized if the lands could be sold for taxes.
The court says: ''We are aware of the use being
made of this principle by the companies who hav-
ing earned the lands neglect to pay these costs II
order to prevent taxation. The remedy lies with
Congress, and is of easy application. Ii that body
will take steps to enforce its lien for these costs OF
survey, by sale of the lands or by forfeiture OF
title, the treasury of the United States would soon
be reimbursed for its expense in making the sur
yeys, and the states and territories in which these
lands lay be RENTED to their appropriate rights
of taxation"
