The Back Tax Cases.

There will be no further back tax
litigation at the present session of the
Kinds county circuit court. A meet
ing of the attorneys for the State
revenue agent and the Illinois Cen.
trail RAILROAD was held Saturday after
noon at which it was agreed that the
case should be allowed ito lie over to
await judgment from the United
States Supreme Court ON the cases
now pending in that tribunal and in
which the same legal points are in
volved.
1t thus appears that the vast amount
of complicated litigation is coming
to head" as one of the attorneys ex-
presses it, and when the court at
Washington announces decision in
one of the cases it will practically
mean the decision of all. The Supreme
Court will not take up the cases until

they cannot be defeated then by Nc

spairing of their party, the Republi-

ing our councils and creating d.scord

hand. that is precisely what happens
among US. and is always confidently
counted on by our antagonists.
