KILLED TAX BILL.
Railroads Won Out in Suit Against
the Gross Receipt Tax.

Austin, Texas, March 21.-The
Third court of civil appeals this
morning handed down its opinion in
the suits of the railroads against the
operation of the Love gross receipts
tax law.
The opinion skaters the law from
caption to emergency clause, and
after tearing the act into bits. the
court reverses and renders the case
in favor of the roads. This includes
the six injunction suits against the
state by the Santa Fe, Cotton Belt.
Galveston, Harrisburg and San An
tonic. International and Great North
ern, Texas and Pacific and the Katy
and also suits on part of the state to
collect taxes and penalties under the
Love law.
The opinion of the court by Chief
Justice Fisher covers fifty-two tyre
written pages, in which he holds that
the act is not an occupation tax. as
contended for by the state. as it is
tax on gross receipts. both state
and interstate, which is contrary to
the commerce clause of the constitu-
ton of the United States. That the
tax is not divisable and therefore UNI
constitutional. besides the tax is I'M
equal.

The recent visit of one Of the in
suTgent republican leaders over in
the Black Hills has been productive
in the way of bringing out a con-
gressional candidate. One of these
'srousing. eutnusiastic'' meetings was
held at Rapid City and the populace
demanded that Charles j.. Buell. De-
come a candidate for congress. and
inimical to the interests of Con-
gresham Martin, who is the candi-
date for the election of senator.
How the Rapid City people were
buncoed into bringing out Mr. Buell.
for congress is more than we can I'M
derstand. 1t is very evident that
they care very little whether they
are represented in congress or not.
The insurgents have little hope that
they can secure the nomination OF
Mr.. Buell. IN the convention, and he
is brought out for the sole pun pose OF
making a fight on Congressman Mar
tin. The Hills people will be acting
in a very judicious name if they
resent the introduction OF anoth er
! candidate when the motive is so
apparent. Mr.. Martin represents the
spirit OF the Black Hills country so
thoroughly that we think there
should be little question as to which
candidate they would support. 1t
is the policy of the insurgent leader
to bring out all the candidates posi-
BILE to so muddle up the campaign
that they hope to be able out Of it
all to get in on the ground floor.
However. before the convention is
held in June, we believe there will
not be a more clarified atmosphere in
the political field aud that there will
be the trouble on hand that the in.
surgents predict.
