BEGINNING OF THE SUIT
TO TEST THE REVENUE LAW

Pueblo. Colo. July S.-Witliput form
ally making his ruling on the states
application for a change of venue in
the proceeding brought 30 test the
new revenue bill. Judge ~ Walter Dix
on of the Pueblo District Court indi-
Gated SO clearly that he will deny the
motion in the morning that attorneys
for the state and for the various rail
roads entered into an agreement by
which the arguments on the states de
murrer Will be taken up next Monday.
Arrayed on the side of the state when
court opened this afternoon there Were
i'll addition to Attorney General Post
and Assistant Attorney General
Caesar Roberts. Il. S. Morrison and
Senator L. NJ. Patterson, whose ap-
pearance in the ease was entered after
formal opening of the proceedings this
afternoon. Representing the petition
ing railroads We're Willard Teller.
Charles +. Cast, c. f. Harrington, II.
y. DubbS and C. W. Waterman.
As preliminary to the argument on
motion for a change of venue TO .Arap-
hhoe county, Attorney General Post
MED with the court n demurrer pro
testing in the first instance against as
ser1ion of jurisdiction in the case by
the District Court of Pueblo and de
murrinG to the proceedings on five sep
arate grounds. In the first place. ON
the grounds that the court has no
jurisdiction Of the persons Of the re-
spondcnts or of the subject matter OF
the action: second. that the court has
II" jurisdiction of the person of the It
spondent. James B. Orman. governor
of Colorado, since the governor is
made party respondent i'll his official
executive capacity: finally. in general
terms that the writ does not state suf-
ncient cause for action.
Attorney Morrison opened the argu-
meht for the state on the Motion for Il
change of venue, contendiny for the
allegations set up in the motion filed
last Saturday. Judge Dixon speedily
made it clear that under the law his
view was that the question of change
of venue depended on construction of
the statutes permitting the hiinying of
mandamns proceedings in county in
which the whole or Il part of the cause
of action arose. Judge Dixon then
called upon counsel to enter into the
The Grit-advocate., 1901-07-12

, cause of action i'll this case. Mr.. Nor
rison urged that the entire cause of
action was in Arapahoe county and
concluded his argument by urging the
grentcr convenience of trial of The case
i'll Arapahoe county. This caused
Judge Dixon 10 suggest that geOgraph-
ically Pueblo county is the most con
venient of access from all paris of the
state. and therefore in the matter OF
convenience tie natural county sine.
the personal attendance OF the re-
sponden; officers under the bill would
probably not be required.
Senator Patterson was entered as of
counsel for the state. and after paying
Il tribute to Pueblo county entered up
on discussion of the points involved.
He read the statute 10 show that the
alleged failure of the state officers to
act as a board of equalization was the
cause of action and that was neces-
sarily confined to Arapahoe county.
He urged the right of she state officers
to the change asked. Attorney General
Post followed out the same line of ar
gument and then c. W. Waterman OF
counsel for the Denver X Rio Grande
railroad replied to the attorneys for
the state. His contention WAS that the
cause of action is i'll Pueblo county
since the meeting of the State Board
of Equalization in Denver is only pre-
liminary to the filing of assessment
rolls for railroads in the various coun-
ties. Mr. Waterman entered ii length
into the law. after which Willard Tel
Ter reinforced the position taken by
Mr. Waterman. Attorney General
Post made a brief closing statement
for the state and Judge Dixon an
nounced that he would take the matter
under advisement until tomorrow
morning.
In making this announcement Judge
Dixon said the application for IL
change of venue seemed either Ike IL
decided reflection upon the Pueblo
court or like a great compliment TO
the Arapahoe county court. He said
the case before him involves matters
of Greatst moment to all the people of
the state and that an action to test the
revenue law. which is the purpose of
this proceeding. might in one way or
another be filed in any or every coun-
| ~ in the state.
