Affirmed by Supreme Court.

One of the opinions affirmed by
the supreme court at Lansing
Tuesday was the case of the Auditor
General VS.. Longyear, ct. al, or
what is known as the Tax Payers
Association. The case was tried
before Hon. Judge Hubbell at the
term of circuit court in this county
last October, and involves all the
taxes in Covington township. The
court held the taxes TO be valid, and
the Association appealed to the
supreme court, with the result as
above stated. that the decision OF
the lower court is sustained. The
result will undoubtedly prove a
cheek to other cases OF a similar
nature
