Co nrt ID ecide 8 Taxa tion case.
The decision which Judge Il. @.
Smith of Yankton handed down Sat
urday in the case of q. L. Salmer VS..
the county commissioners of Clay
county is an important one, touching
as it does upon similar cases throught-
out the entire state. The county board
last year attempted to assess moneys
and credits owned by many capitalists
of this city and Clay county. All
resisted payment, and as a test case G.
T. Salmer took his troubles into court.
The case came up before Judge f. G..
Smith last Thursday, and after argu-
ments had been presented took the
matter under adyisement. Dean Thos.
Sterling of the State University law
department appeared for the plaintiff
aud the commissioners were repre-
sented by @. Fl. Dillon OF Yankton and
States Attorney Tilton of Vermillian
The argument advanced by Dean Ster-
ling was to tine effect that under the
law as it now exists the commissioners
have no power Il levy assessments on
moneys and credits where the assessor
or town board has returned no assess
ment on same. The old law gave the
commissioners this power, but it was
rescinded in 1908. on, rather amended I'M
a way to make the town board or asses
sor responsible for assessments. Nearly
every county in the state has cases
similar to the one in which Judge
Smith has just handed down a decision.
There is no question but that millions
of dollars in moneys and credits in
South Dakota could be taxed, but the
law will have to be complied with to
the letter. This is the second verdict
that Dean Sterling has gained in regard
to the taxing OF moneys and credits.
Some years ago he represented the
defence in the Ease of Billinghurst VS..
Sphinx county. The old law was in
vogue at that time and although
the county lost the decision in the
lower court the supreme court reversed
the decision. Bat it is likely that the
supreme court under the present law
could do nothing but agree with Judge
Smith. Thus Attorney Sterling would
have credit for having won a case as
counsel for the defense, and one as .
counse flor plaintiff.

An eccentric character of western

was found dead near Midland Saturday,
presumably from natural causes Some

hid in a h%aystack for several days. He

before his body was found and it is
presumed that his death was from dis
ease. His body was frozen when found.
