check to Costley, but he bought no
stamps.
The Attorney General figured that one
Superior Court decision would receive no
more attention than another, and decided
to appeal for relief to the Supreme Court
of the State. This he did yesterday, and
in his cause of action ayers that the com
pany is and always has been since us
Incorporation under the laws of the state
or Colorado, in the business OF car
rying and transporting packages as a
general express business.
That since the first day of July, 1898.
1T has been the duty of the defendant to
aftlX, and cancel at its own cost, to all OF
It's receipts revenue stamp of the Value
of cent, as provided by an act of Con-
gress entitled IAN act to provide ways
ana means to meet war expenditures, ana
for other purposes That on October ~
he rendered to the company a package
for transportation to the State Board OF
examiners at Sacramento and at the
same time offered the usual rate OF 70
cents, but that a demand was made upon
him for an additional cent to pay for the
stamp, which plaintiff alleges he was not
required by law to pay, and that upon his
refusal to pay the l cent his package was
refused by the company's agent.
In his statement of cause the plaintlH
also alleges in general charge that the
company in diSregarding the tax law Is
dishonoring it's franchise. On this point
the complaint says:
Affiant believes upon information and al
leges. that defendant is violating its franchises
and Its duty to the public and is unlawtully de-
mandtng of all persons who transact any ex-
press business with defendant within this State
the payment OF the internal revenue tax which
by virtue Of the provisions of the act OF Con-
gress aforesaid II is the duty of defendant it
self to pay, and unlawfully and oppressivey
forces and compels all Of such persons to pay
said tax by unlawfully refusing to receive for
transportation any goods so offered to it for
transportation and shipment unless, in addi-
ton to It's regular charges, the persons offer
ing goods pay TO defendant sum sufficient to
cover the cost to defendant of purchasing and
procuring the internal revenue stamps, or I'M
less such persons themselves furnish said
stamps; that by of its unlawful and
coercive acts defendant is evading and escap-
ing it's just share of the burden of the internal
revenue tax and is unawfully violating its
franchise and falling to properly perform the
duties imposed upon it by law, and is CO.
ercively and without any right violating its
duty to the people of this State by imposing
the unlawful and onerous burden of paying its
joint and rghtful share of the internal revenue
tax upon the general public.

MUST FIGHT FOR IT'S LITTLE
PENNIES.
Despite Numerous Semi VirtuOuS Concessions Wells,
Fargo Company Must Show Cause Before the
Supreme Court Of This State Why 1t Should
Not Pay the War Tax.

! Attorney General Fitzgerald yesterday
filed with the Supreme Court his petition
for an alternative writ of mandate ope-
rating against Wells, Fargo & Co. 1t is
by this means that the State of Califor-
MIA will seek to rid its sovereign people
of the burden of a grasping corporation s
taxes and convince President John J. Val
entine that the laws of the land are not
to be differentiated that he may further
squeeze the people who have made his
company and his own rotund salary prof
liable possibilities.
There is a bright, shining possibility
that Mr.. Fitzgerald's petition is too
late for its object. 1t has developed in the
past few days that Mr.. Valentine and his
company have made concessions and that
to some of their little receipts they are
attaching and paying for their own reve-
nue. stamps. True the patrons who have
been so far honored are the very largest
and most profitable shippers that appear
on the company's books, and the suspi-
cion may arise that the Valentine magma
nimity is induced by the coercive infiu-
ence of threatened Withdrawals of big
blocks of trade. However, the fact re-
mains that the company is actually pay
ing for some of its stamps, not only in
this city, but in Sacramento and in the
other towns where there are shippers of
enough Importance to the corporate purse
to tell Mr.. Valentine to put up or go
without. Mr.. Valentine is putting up,
and the fact will argue to his benefit I'M
til he proves that his sudden accession of
virtue is nothing more than discrimina-
ton against those who do need it for the
benefit of those who do not.
unsupported virtue to the contrary, At
torney General Fitzgerald is going right
along with his fight for principal and pub
lie rights. 1t was his original intention
to make his application for a writ of man
date before the Superior Court. The
decision of Justice Of the Peace Barry
and of Superior Judge Trout in the
Costley case, however, interfered with
that. Though the Superior Court declared
that the corporation should buy its
stamps and pay damages to William
Costley as well, Mr.. Valentine considered
that the last behest only was incumbent
upon him. He acknowledged the decis-
ions justice in so far that he forwarded
