ATKINSON BILL INVALID.
One of Pingree's Measures voided by til.
Supreme Court.


Supreme Court.
Lansing, Mich, April 27.-In decision
handed down late yesterday the state
supreme court declared invalid the
main principle of the Pingree-Atkinson
equal taxation bill. The case was one
instituted by Governor Pingree while
the Atkinson bill was hanging fire in
the legislature, to test the validity OF
an act passed some fifteen years ago
providing for the taxing of telephone
and telegraph companies on the value
of their property, the tax, which was
levied by the state board of auditors, to
be used for specific purpose
The act was similar to the Atkinson
bill in that both provided special as
SCISSORS, and also a specific tax. In its
opinion the supreme court holds that
tax on property based on an assess
ment cannot be maintained as a specific
tax" 1t is probable that steps win be
taken row TO have the Atkinson act
declared invalid
