turn not true bill.

Olympia Street Grading Tax Cases.

OLYMPIA, Jan. 2.-tSpeciaL Judge Gordon,
in the superior court here today, decided against
the city OF Olympia i'll the special tax assess
meat suits against J. W. Robinson and James
Pattson. These cases were important test cases
and involved the validity of assessments for
street grading. The assessments ara held TO be
invalid for want of notice to property
owners and opportunity for them to
be heard before the assessments were
made. The amount of special taxes affected by
this decision is about 100000. 1t is believed,
however, that the city has not lost the right 20
make other and valid assessments Tor these
improvements.
