NOT CoLLFCTIBLE.
The Special Police Salary Tax Held to
Be Illegal.

The Special Police Salary Tax Held to
Be Illegal.
Superior Judge Catlin rules that the
special tax imposed.two years ago to raise
funds for the payment of policemen's
salaries is illegal.
r. a. Burr. the reformer, brought suit,
1t will be remembered, to prevent the
collection Of the tax. The case hung fire
for some time, but finally came to head
on the defendants demurrer, alleging
that the complaint did not state facts suf-
nclent to constitute cause of action.
Judge Catlin has oyerruled the de-
murrer and IN reviewing the case said it
was clear the tickets used at the election
dld not conform to the statute which pro-
Vlded that at municipal or general cleo
ton where the payment of any indebted
ness OF the city was to be voted upon the
ballot shall contain the clauses ''For the
payment-Yes." 'For the payment
No." The tickets used contained only
the affirmative clause 'For the special tax
y es." This the court declares was q
palpable violation of the law and it was,
therefore, his opinion that the election
was not legal and that the tax imposed
was not collectible
1t w3s held that the plaintiff had chosen
the right and proper remedy and that the
allegations of the defendant TO the con-
| trary were unsupported by anything
found in the code.
Holl and Dunn were the attorneys for
sBurr.

by Wright he was com ing out of Diers-
sens cellar with bundle.
Smith then told him he had the finest
ham in the land" and directed him to go
to man near by and ask s'his jags TO
buy 1T" His jags" didn't buy, how
ever, and they went to number of places,
hnally selling the ham at five cents.per
pound to B. Pilcovich, restaurant
keeper.
They then started for another drink,
preparatory to buying tools for the repair
OF Dixon, when Officer Talbot came upon
the scene and arrested Wright, Smith
and the ham. In the course of his story
Wright incidentally mentioned that
Smith told him of robbing a coal office.
Smith questioned the witness and asked
him if he didn't know he was liar, and
that they had met in San Francisco.
"Ain't you deserter from the navy ?''
queried Smith. Haven't you got navy
uniform under your clothes? Where did
you get that handkerchief"
Smith denied all these insinuations
and said he bought the handkerchief, as
his doctor had told him a silk handker-
chief was good for neuralgia
"l'll have you back in the navy, you
- -" said Smith as he sat down,
and the witness stepped off the stand.
b. Pilcovich testified to having bought
the ham of Smith and Wright for 81 25
and Officer Talbot to arresting the men
and recovering the stolen article
When asked if he had any hing to say
Smith was loud in his allegations that he
met Wright in San Francisco, and that
the latter deserted from his ship at
Vallejo. He was anxious to have the
court telegraph to Al White in San Fran
cisco to prove this.
Judge Cravens thought Smith guilty,
whatever Wright might have done, and
he ordered him committed to the Sheriff
and held to bail in the sum of $3.50.
Wright was also held as witness and
his bail fixed at 500.
