GOVERNOR WILSON

arose to make an additional argument for
the State. he said be had no idea of tax.
ing any part in, the discussion, bat there
could be no improperly il saying q few
words. Especially did he want to say some
thing on the subject Of the statute Law.
There seemed to be idea on the part of
the plaintiffs, IN opening the case, that the
County Courts had something to do with
this matter. But notwithstanding this, he
did not want to discuss the matter unless
the Court thought the point had something
to do with the case.
The Court said it would like to hear srpu-
nent on the subject, and Governor Wilson
proceed BY saying that the County Court
bad nothing in the, world to do with the
taxes, except making the levy. and spend
ing the money when II had been collected
In support of this he quoted from Sec. 2S of
Art. 8 Ofths Constitution, wherein it is laid
Wheeling Sunday register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1882-1934, 1885-09-06

down that the County Court shall have "au-
thoritv to Law and disburse the county le1ies.
~ And shAll exercise such other
jurisdictions, and perform such other duties,
as may be prescribed BY law. The p AIN
tiffs had claimed that
THE COUNTY COURT HAD AUTHORITY
,ointerfsrs in the matter, and he wanted to
Enov by what power that tribunal could
ston the collection of AS taxes and enforce
the collection of BIS The County Court
could correct erroneous assessments, but
farther than that it could not 60.
The Governor elaborated this point IN
most interesting way, and continued his re-
marks until hslfpast one, when the Court
took q recess until two thirty.
When the Court re-convened the Govern
or resumed his discussion Of the mater.
BE alluded to the cry Of the Railway Com
papy that it had been uDjustly dealt with,
and said1hst he was sick and tired Of hear.
ipg this talk of discrimination.
Referring to the plea of the Company
that it would be greatly Inconvenience BY
the dissolution of the restraining order, he
said: "Ihey say it is impossible to pay
that thew haven't the money. Why, Your
Honor, there are thousands Of people snnu-
a,Iy pushed to the wall all over the State,
but does anybody hear this sort Of wall from
tbem2 The taxes must be collected. They
are assessed for the security Of society and
the existence of the State. This is serious
matter, and is not question to be higgled
over"
THE QUESTION OF DIsTRAINT
was next taken up by the speaker, and he
sail it would be beautiful idea, advanced
by the plaintiffs, that when an injunction
issued before the date of distress under the
law, and extended beyond the date when-a
syY could be legally made, that the tax
rayeIs had right to further stay equal to
he period between the date of the issuance
Of the Injunction and the date when dis
trees warrant could issue.
As to the claim of the plaintiffs that the
taxes were not due until this year, Governor
Wilson said:
I'VE taxed you in 1879, and the Supreme
Court decided that we had right to tax
you then, and not now. You have held in
Allowance the right Of the State. That is
all you did. Courts don't sit to decide as
to whether you will be liable in the future,
but whether the Identical liability in the
plea is q liability. That is the meaning Of
pleadipgs and the meaning of litigation
Either the taxes OF 1879 were payable in
lS79And we had a right to collect in 1879,
or we had NO right to collect at all.
Again he said:
This road would like to take this State
into court of equity again. 1t pays 1t
1t is $l2. 600 yesr to it
A little further he referred to the move
Of the counsel for the road toward Master
Commissioner, and said the idea was ridicu
lous, when the Court said:
You ought not TO object to them asking
The great mistake in this world is that peo
pie
Wheeling Sunday register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1882-1934, 1885-09-06

This matter has been up in suniry State,
and has been fully discussed
Again
II contend that the plaintiffs bill is defec
tive, because it does not show what portion
of the tax is legal and what is illegal, and
also because it fails.to set forth any figures
further than to allege in general way that
the whole amount of the tsxis $4,000
and that $l9 900 or $40, 900 is unjust"
In conclusion, Mr.. Caldwell called the at.
tention Of the Court to the large amount Of
money tied up by this litigation.
snd referred to the large amount of interes,
lost to the State as result. he said at 6
per cent. about $3l per day was accruing
on the sum at issue, not dollar of which
could be collected. and asked the Court for
