MCLEAN COUNTY TAX CASE.

Lean County's Boundaries
Cannot Now Be Attacked
The supreme court has handed
down an opinion in the case of
Ralph D. Ward, Milan G.. Ward
and VIM. o. Ward, appellants, VS.
Ole Gradin, sheriff of Mclean
county, respondent, in which the
trial court is reversed. The sylla-
bus is as follows:
l. The right of Mclean coun-
ty to exercise it's corporate powers
over the territory added .thereto:by
!: chapter so laws of 1891, cannot be-
.assailed even by a direct attack
at the suit of a private person or
by the state. State vs. Mclean
Co., IL N. D., 1885,, followed and
approved.
2. The existence. and authority
of municipal corporation acting
under color of law' cannot 'be
questioned collaterally by private
suitors.
8. The sheriff was sued in con-
Z version for seizing and selling
property pursuant to proceeding
to collect personal property taxes
from; a delinquent taxpayer. One
of the contested issues was wheth-
er the property belonged to the
taxpayer or to the plaintiffs, and
the taxpayer was the principal
witness for plaintiffs. The defend
ant was permitted to prove that
the taxpayer whom the defendant
claimed owned the property seized
had never voluntarily paid the
taxes imposed on him. Held pre-
judicial error.
4. Trivial defects in a pleading
which could not mislead should be
disregarded7 where no objection is
made before trial.
Appeal from the district court

er, judge.
Newton & Dullam for appellants,
w. L. Nuessle and Guy 81. Cor
liss, for respondent. . - .v "a
The opinion is be Enge;ssrsGsa, e;s ID j.,
Justice Young concurring ip the
result but pMcing his concurrence
in the reversal upon the insuffici-
ency of the special verdict. > :
The plaintiffs in this case sued
to recover damages for the alleged
conversion of thi rty- eight head of
cattle for the payment of certain
delinquent personal taxes. In the
the trial court verdict was found
for the defendant and judgment
entered accordingly. Plaintiff
moved in the alternative for judg-
ment Notwithstanding the verdict
for new trial, which motion was
heard and denied before the en-
try of judgment.
The plaintiff contended, among
other things, that the cattle in
question were seized outside of
Mclean county, being in that por-
tion Of the territory fixed by the
act known locally as as the "great-
er Mclean county act," the same
being an act to increase the bound-
aries of Mclean county, etc.
Counsel for plaintiffs contended
that this act was void for the rea-
son that the subject of the act was
not expressed in the title, and to
sustain this contention relied up
on the decision in the Stark coun-
ty case. On this point the court
says:
I'VE are agreed that tho right
Of Mclean copnty,to / eze5oise its

tory added BY shaptss 60 =

and the men enjoyed the lecture as they
smoked the candidates cigars. At some
OF the rallies refreshments OF oyster stews

evenings generally were of rare good fell
lowship. His district, however, went
against him by about 300 votes.

scHoOL QUESTION IN THE coURrs.

SCHOOL QUESTION IN THE COURTS.
Our government is taking the intel
ligent. straightforward way Of bringing
before the courts. to which the settle
ment belongs, the question whether
the action Of the San Francisco school
authorities under the state law requir-
ing segregation Of school children Of
Mongol parentage is a violation OF Jap
anese rights under existing treaties.
The decision OF the legal point is es-
sential in dealing with the feeling that
has been created. The mere submits
sion Of the matter to judicial ascertain
ment and the time required should
tend to repress popular passion in both
countries.
II the California statute be found
null, as a treaty infringement, it is alb
surd to suppose a conflict between
state and national authority, whatever
may be the local conviction. With
prudence a way should be found on
that basis to adjust matters so as to
maintain treaty faith and still not to
violate any substantial interest Of the
community in the schools. On the
other hand, a finding that sustains the
state law, while conclusive as to the
technical point, should not be in the
way of reasonable common school pro-
vision for Japanese.
There is, in fact, no novelty in the
class of difficulties to which this San
Francisco case. belongs. They have al
ways arisen in all countries wherever
aliens settle in large numbers, espe-
cially at the points where they are
mainly grouped. Prejudice Invariably
is excited under such circumstances by
differences of race and habits. Bitter
ness and strife indeed often arise
where alien residents are of identical
race. The real difficulty is to bring to
bear on these questions the good sense
and cool judgment of the community,
because by nature they appeal to pref
udice, ignorance and passion. That
will be the difficulty with respect to
the Pacific coast points where the Jap
anese are mainly settled, and with re-
spect to popular sentiment in Japan
itself
1t will stand us in good stead to re-
member that we cannot with safety,
even If we were so disposed, trample
on the rights or wantonly offend the
sensibilities of the Japanese. They
are not a nation to be trihed with. Vast
American interests in the Pacific and
in the orient require prudence and
moderation, not to speak of justice,
on our part.

BANKS AND LAND LOANS.

The bill to empower national banks
to loan on real estate, although it has
passed the house, is not likely to be-
come a law without such amendments
and restrictions as would practically
nullify the purpose of the prime NOV
ers for the change. The securities
and assets of safe bank must be
quick, and land is among the slowest.
In the nature of things instant con-
vertibility is the ideal of bank re-
sources. The land loan business re-
spends to an entirely different want
and a different class both of investors
and customers.
To transform national banks into
land loan agencies, or to make 1t pos
sible to conduct the latter under the
name of the former, would be hazard
Gus and in violation of the teaching Of
all experience. There may be some
| agricultural communities in the west
ern and southern states in which better
connections with capital available for
land loans are desirable, but sound
judgment will not break down safe
guards in the national banking sys-
tenn merely to meet such exceptional
cases.
In the normal community land loans
are today readily available through
land loan agencies at far lower inter
est rates, precisely proportioned to the
quality of the security, than the nor
NAL rates for bank accommodations.
To legalize commingling of such func-
tions would not add a dollar to the
legitimate fund for land loan invest
ment. And the extent that such in
vestments were increased would there
fore be at the expense of banking sta
bility and solvenoy.
These points are so well established
as to rank almost as axioms of sound
business. so that If the pending bill is
made to square with them there would
be little excuse then for spreading it
on the statute book.
