urer Holiday from selling for taxes the
advertised property of j. d. Finn of

business and residence lots within the

embraced within the Northern Pacific

allege that, as no patent has yet issued

ty, ii is not subject to taxation. The
application for a permanent injunction
will be argued before Judge Henry OF
the district court in a few days. The
suit involves the same question raised

in favor of the company. and which is
