Des Moines, Nov. 16.-The supreme

the company on the value OF nine GER

to the district court and were defeated
there, then appealed to the supreme
court, which yesterday affirmed the as
sessment.
1t was commended by the transfer
company that 1t merely handled the
machinery from the nonresident
seller to the resident buyer and
that 1t would be as reasonable to as
sess the property on board the freight
cars Of railroad companies as to tax IL
