 issued the statement that it would make no more compromises in the mat ter of the one-tenth of per cent. priv ilege taxation on foreign corporations. A few agreements of special characy ter were entered into last year but At
 was done, it is understood, only to pacify the corporations which were threatening to assail this feature of the revenue law also.
 It remains to be seen whether Gov ernor Jelks, upon his return here, will call the State Board together to con-
 slider the compromise sought by the Republic Company. Or 1t may be that the mortgagors are willing to walt un-
 til the next regular meeting of the
 Board for decision. In the event that no concessions are made, MT. Campbell asserts that he Is authorized to seek a mandamus against Judge Greene, of
 Birmingham. Ml get the deed of trust recorded. It is the intention of the company to record the deed in one or
 two other counties of the State. Under
 the law, however, the tax is to be col footed only in one county.
