A California Kick,

MERGED, Cal, Jan. THE first of a
great series of mass meetings will be held
here to-day in which public protest will
be made against extending the famous
Yosemite national park. A federal COM
mission has just been to California and
has decided to recommend that all the
portions of four adjoining
counties be added to the park. The citi-
zens of these counties have arranged a
series of mass meetings of which this is
the first and in which they will endorse
resolutions opposing the extension on
the grounds that it will take millions of
dollars of taxable properties out of the
four counties. Each mass meeting is ex-
pected to appoint delegates to conven-
ton, which will soon be held at Fresno,

POpulists Protest.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Jan. Mass meet
ings of Populists are to be held through
out the state to-day to protest against
the Inauguration of Gov. Jones. The
committee which called the mass meet
ings gave the following reasons for is
suing the address. ''This address is is
sued to those who favor reform and a
free vote and fair count. All such are
asked to assemble in mass meeting in
every county in the state on Saturday,
January Z, to consider alleged frauds
committed in the recent election and to
ascertain whether it is the sense of the
people of the state that R. F. Kolb and
the candidates of the ticket headed by
him should take such steps as will enable
them to gain possession of the Offices to
which they were elected or quietly and
tamely submit to the stupendous wrongs.
Also whether, in case the legislature shall
fail to provide for contest of said
election, it is the desire of the people to
assert their sovereign power by such
legal agencies as may yet be at their COM
mand.'

NATIONAL BANK STOCK,
History of worthy Case Just
Decided in the U. S. Supreme
Court.

Two suits to test the validity of the
New Mexico statute relative to the taxa
tion of national bank stoc we're brought
in Nov. 1888 by the Albuquerque Nation
al bank and the First i,ational bank
OF Albuquerque, to restrain the
collection of territorial and county taxes
levied upon their shares of stock and
property. The cause came up on writ
of injunction against Jose L. Perea, sher-
iff, ct al. The cases were brought by W.
B. Childers, attorney for the banks, and
Solicitor Gen. Bartlett appeared for the
territory, assisting Mr.. Greenleaf, dis
trict attorney; filed answers and demurrer
to the bills and argued the same before
Judge Lee, at Albuquerque, who sustain
ed the demurrer and dismissed the bills.
By agreement the case OF the First Ma
tional bank was to abide by the decision
of the Albuquerque National bank as the
same questions were involved, and the
latter case was taken by appeal to the
supreme court where it was argued by
Mr.. Childers and the solicitor general at
the January term 1890, and the Judgment
of the lower court was affirmed at the
January term 1891, in an opinion by
Chief Justice O'Brien, concurred in by
all the court. Mr.. Childers then took an
appeal to the supreme court of the Unit
ed States where, by agreement, the case
was submitted on briefs by the solicitor
general and Mr.. Childers in November
last, and the judgment of the supreme
court of the territory was affirmed.
The amount of taxes involved in the
case decided, Is something over $4,000,
and in the case of the First National bank
about $4,000.
These suits involved the New Mexico
revenue law of 1884, the banks contending
that under that statute national banks
could not be taxed by the territory, and
it was for this reason that the act of 1891
was passed providing expressly that they
should be taxed upon their shares SO as
to avoid any question on the bject.
But by this decision of the upreme court
of the United States, the alidity of the
old revenue law is fully established, and |
the national banks of t. s*srrtory will
have to come up and pa, .ses for the
support of the government like other,
and ordinary mortals.
