Coming on top Of the sensational

county commissioners with the
NOrtbsrn Pacific for the payment a
its delinquent taxes. by which the
company saves something like SIS.

won this case In the courts, ID causing
much unfavorabIe comment. The
railway fought the payment Of these
taxes IN the courts and In its issue Of
November IS. 1905. the Press pub
lished the decision Of the United
States district court, stating that the
case was decided the previous We'd
nesday BY Judge Beatty in the federal
court at Boise. II was claimed by
the railway company that the state
Law providing for special taxes vas
unconstitutional, and. secondly, that
the comfy could not sell the cOrpor
stion property Of the company sepaT-
ate from its franchise. On the lat
ter point the court says:
The complainant ID a quasi pub

has an interest to the extent that -

that nothing shall be done TO cause
its suspension. Its franchise il Its

The above pOi=t was not denied by

The court holds that the state Law
