down decision in the suit for manda-
mus OF the Chicago Teachers Fedora
ton against the state board of equaiza-
ton and awards peremptory wlit'of
mandamus. The opinion is quite lengthy
and holds that members of the state
board OF equalization are public officers
and 1t Is their legal duty 10 assess the
stocks OF the twenty or more companies
named in the petition. He also holds
that the last board did not even make a
pretenae at assessing thirteen of this
number He holds the act OF assessing
etiIl remains unfinished and can, under
the statute. be assessed as omitted
property. In closing the Judge says:
THE exigencies of the case demand
an application Of this extraordinary
remedy. Such officers must be made TO
understand that both the spirit and let
ter of the law must be observed that
assessments must be made honestly and
in absolutely good faith, that no neglec,
or evasion will be tolerated and a man

by which such duties can be compelled.
