of appeals for the ninth circuit,
holds that the Northern Pacific
Railway company must pay taxes
upon its granted lands. The full
decision would fill too much space,
but the salient points may be set
forth.
This was . suit in equity to en-
join appellant, the treasurer of JEFF
ferson county, Montana, from sell
ing the land described in the bill Of
complaint for non. payment of state
and county taxes, levied in the year
1894. The circuit court of Mon
tana granted an injunction as
prayed for in the complaint.
"The lands in question:" says
the decision, ARE surveyed, odd
sections within the place limits Of
the grant to the Northern Pacific
Railway company by act of con-
gress, approved July 2, 1894"
In conclusion the decision says;
"Ws are of the opinion that the
land il taxable. The railroad com
pany, by virtue Of its grant, has an
indefeasible right or title thereto.
The land has become the property
ofthe railroad company in the sense
that there is nothing to prevent its
use and enjoyment by the company.
1t being the beneficial owner OF the
land and being protected in it's use
and enjoyment, there is no sub
stantial reason why it should not
be compelled TO pay taxes thereon.
The argument that it may some
time in the future be shown that
somo part thereof 10 mineral land
Ia toe remote, indefinite and uncer-
tain to be seriously considered by
tho court as q valid reason for re-
fusing to enforce the right of tax
alton.
courts should deal with things
"a they are right, without attempt
Ing to determine rights upon mere
possibilities and speculations. The
duty devolved upon the railroad
company to af6rmativsly show that
the lands taxed belong to the class
which was excluded from its grant.
In other words, the burden was. up
on the railroad company to show
that the lands taxed were mineral
lands.
1T should not be allowed to blow
hot and cold; to say in one breath
the lands are not mineral for the
purpose OF establishing its rights
therein, and in the next breath TO
say that the lands may be mineral
for the purpose of avoiding the pay
ment Of taxes thereon.
"The judgment and decree of the
circuit court is reversed and cause
remanded with instructions to dis.
miss the bill and enter judgment
In favor of appellant for his costs"
