money value. and without making deductions
for the mortgages covering the property as
sessed; that Section 2644 of the political code
was not constitutionally enacted by the Legis-
lature, and had not the force of law. The ma
jorlty OF the court did not think that it was
necessary to consider the question of the consti-
nationality of the law by which the case was de-
termined by the court below but affirmed the
Judgment entirely upon the ground that the
assessments cannot be the basis of judgment
against the companies.
Justice Field, in separate opinion, says: II
agree TO the judgment of the court in this and
the other tax cases. but regret that it has not
been deemed consistent with it's duty to decide
the important constitutional questions involved,
and particularly the one which was so fully con
sidered IN the Circuit Court-that in the assess
ment. according to which the taxes claimed were
levied, an unlawful and unjust discrimination
was made between the property of the defend
ants and the property of individuals to its dis
advantage, thus subjecting it to an unequal
share Of the public burdens, and to that extent
depriving 1t of that equal protection of the laws
guaranteed by the fourteenth amendment to the
Constitution" The question was one of trans
cendent Importance, he said, and it will come to
this court and continue to come until it Is au-
thoratively decided in harmony with the great
constitutional amendment which insures to
everyone. whatever his position or association
may be, the equal protection Of the laws
The court adjourned until October next.

THE DAKOTA BILLS.
Senator Harrison's Measure Will Probably
Be Adversely Reported.

Senator Harrison's Measure Will Probably
Be Adversely Reported.
Special to the INDIANAPOLIS Journal.
WASHINGTON, May 10.-The Democrats of
the House committee on Territories have re-
solved to adopt vigorous measures to kill off the
tendency that exists towards granting the people
of Dakota the rights which they should enjoy.
Some time ago it was decided that the Harrison
bill, which passed the Senate recently, and
which provides for the division of the Territory
on the forty-sixth parallel, and the admission of
the southern half into the Union as State,
should be reported adversely Since the com
mittee took this action. however, it has been
discovered that there are numerous Democrats
who will vote against the committee and for the
Harrison bill, if allowed the opportunity to do
to reconsider the action by which the bill was
ordered to be reported adversely, in order that it
may not go on the calendar at all. It is hoped
by this means to prevent any discussion of the
Dakota question, but even if this plan succeeds
it is probable that its projectors may find that it
is a boomerang movement, as the people of Da-
kota are determined to visit the sins OF the
Democrats in the present House upon the candi-
dates of that party who may ask for votes dur
ing the coming congressional elections. 1t is the
purpose of these people to select several hundred
of their brightest men-and they have thousands
of bright men in Dakota-and TO send them into
all the doubtful congressional districts to work
against the Democratic candidates who may be
nominated. If this plan is carried out it will re-
suit in serious loss to the Democratic party in
the next Congress-

vestigation, said tonight that the committee had
searches. and had, in wording its report, been as
generous with Stealey as possible. Warder, ne
said, would be removed from his position in a
few days, as it was determined to call up the re-
port for action in the House soon as it was re-
ceived, with the testimony, from the Public
Printer. Mr.. Cox was inclined as others are, to
believe that Stealey will retire from his position
as clerk to Speaker Carlisle Last week a
member of the committee went to the Speaker
and asked him if it would embarrass him if a
report was made which openly inculpated
Steaey.
mo" replied Mr. Carlisle; ''Stealey is not Mr..
Carlisles clesk. He is the Speakers clerk. He
appointed at the solicitation of the Indiana
and Kentucky delegations. Treat the case as
though Mr.. Steaey was in no way connected
with me or my Office"
1t is believed by Indiana Democrats generally
that Stealey will tender his resignation and re-
leve all parties from embarrassment Stealey
has been i'll and at his house for several days.
Mr.. Stone, Democratic mem Der of the COM
mttee, will submit minority report of the in
vestigation, in which he will vindicate Stealey;
but all of the other members, including Chair
man Cox condemn this procedure, and say it
will result most damagingly to Stealey, because
it will open up the case the floor of the House
Stealey has been universally popular here and
has been treated with the greatest fairness in
the investigation and his friends deplore the ab-
sence of vindication in the committees report,
but say that in the face of the testimony nothing
better could have been DONE

Blatchford delivered the opinion of the court
He held that in the Cannon case the question of
