TO Be Appealed
MODESTO, CAL, Nov. 25.-Judee Minor
handed down a decision today i'll the
case of o. McHenry, president of The
National bank of Muies to ct aI.vs. W. A.
Downer, tax collector of Sanislaus
county. which is CT interest TO all national
banks of California.
Assessor J. +. Cam bell assessed the
shares of t.Ie Mndssto National bank and
made double assessment on account OF
the shares not having been assessed be-
fore. The decision covers eighteen pares
OF manuscript. Judge Minor holds that
the assessment is valid.
The question in this case is whether
or not the owner of shares IN natiun al
banks can be compiled to pay taxes to the
state on such shares. The decision is
nv exhaustive and n any authorizes and
secti ne OF acts of CONGRESS and state
legislatures are cited. The decision con-
clues as filows:
"A large portion Of the capital of the
stat Is invested in shares of stock Of
nat onal hanks. and there is probably no
mode OF Investment go profitable. Prop
erty uf all other CORPORATIONS and indi-
vduals hears a burden OF taxation. The
leeislat on expressly declares that stock
shall be taxed, the act OF congr' IS per
mits it, and revenue laws Of the state
were framed for the purpose Of reaching
property or every thing of that descrip-
tion, and do not believe that the leais-
loture OF this state has bsnn so powerful
for evil and futile for good as to ov r.
throw pain provision of organic law
and at the same time defeat the object
that it st .rted out to accomplish in the
enactment of revenue law. namely, I'M
20 tion of burdens Of government upon
all property alike. In my opinion the
assessor ent is valid"
The decision affects the thirty-five
national hanks in the state, and all the
banks attributed to fighting the case.
The case wa, test case for all the banks.
