MOST IMPORTANT DECI-
sIoNs FOR MANY YEARS.
Tennessee Supreme Court Hands
Down Decision in Tax Case
at Jackson.

Judge Wilson of the Supreme
Court handed down one of the
most important decisions which
has come from that tribunal for
years at Jackson Saturday after
noon.
Under this decision all property
must be assessed ut its actual cash
value and the assessed valuation Of
of the State will be increased
probably 25 or 30 per cent.
The State Board of Equalization
is givon absolute power to raise
every assessment to the actual
cash value of the property.
Chief Justice Snodgrass only
dissented from the decision.
The action of of Hon. N. II.
White as proxy for Treasurer K,
B. Craig on the State Board of
Equalization is upheld and the
board is required to give no no
tice of having raised assessments.
Any property which was assessed
for less than its actual value can,
at any time within three years, be
back assessed for the difference
between the assessment and the
actual value. The latter clause is
probably the most sensational item
in the decision and affords wide
field for the operations of the
State revenue agents.
The substance of the opinion
isas follows:
This is a bill to recover taxes
paid the State and county under
protest and to set aside an assess
ment of property for taxation.
The bill was demurred to, the de-
murrer was sustained aad bill dis

We have known Mir. Mayrath for 25
years and have suspected that he was
incognito-a long lost heir of an Euro
pean throne. He has kept his disguise
most scrupulously close. But now that he
uncovers himse and discloses his identi-
ty we must let him chose what he most
desires. Having long enjoyed the
luxury of home in the short grass belt
he could not reconcile himself to the un-
certain but gorgeous place on a kingly
throne. A home in the wilderness is
vastly more congenial than Servia' 5
throne. Mr. Mayrath chooses wisely.
The independent people are the pluto
Gratis of Western Kansas. The serfs and
minions of a kingdom are not to be COM
pared to the dukes and dukesses of the
short grass country There is nothing
congenial in holding down a throne. No
one having enjoyed a home in Western
Kansas would relinqulsh it for crown

guillotine stalking broadly at daylight,
