THE TAX QUESTION.
Petition for Writ Of CsrllOFarl Argued
Before Supreme Court.
BOTH SIDES OF THE ARGUMENT
Attorneys Z,ns and Fri elbow for Peti'
TONERS and iuorn'y General Bishop
and Arthur Browu FIR State Board.

The Supreme court met II special
session today AMI heard arguments on
the petition OF lanes A. CUNNINGHAM
and Isabella NJ. Petite for writ oil
cettioria to review and anDul the
action ef the State board of equsllzs-
lion 10 respect to the boards action In
raising the valuation Of property In
Salt Lske county fiveipsr cent.
Attorneys John M. Zine aud Il. b.
Critchlow appeared in behalf OF petit
Il lsis, sud Attorney General Bishop
and Arthur Brown for the board.
Cou nssI for the plaintiff commended
~ that the State bosrd had no right
to Increase the total amount OF the
taxable property In the State as re-
turned by the county assessors and
county boards, which had been
done by raising SAT- Lake
county's assessment and not lowering
the assessment Of some other county
or counties. (2) That the order OF the
Htste board was invalid because IL did
not make the raisc In accordance Win
the statute, by rsising respectively
the rsAi estats, improvements on real
estate and person. property. %. That
tho otder,was invalid because 1t raised
the value OF the money assessed and
also mortgages which were assessed at
their full lace value.
Coupssl for defendants commended
that the constitution provides that ali
property shall be assessed at Ito value
in money. The equalization must be
to that standard. This authorized the
legislature TO pass subdivision 0, sec
{ on SO OF the act OF 1896. That section
nutboIiz.s the State board to Increase
or lower spy assessments. Its action
was strictly within that authority, the
only question being the constitution
ality 81 the law. There Ia no clause In
the col slituiion that can be found
prohibiting tuch legislation.
The court took the matter under ad-
wise ment.
