Washington. ian I'm deciding
the case Of the American smelling Il
Refining company VS.. the people of
the state ~ Colorado. the supreme
court of the United States reversed the
decision of the supreme court of Colo
RADIO involving the construction OF that
portion Of the revenue laws OF Colo
RADIO. which imposes a tax Of 4 cents
annually on each thousand dollars of
stock Of foreign corporations doing
business in the state.
Justice Peckham handed down the
counts opinion.
The smelling company is a New Jer-
sey corporation and as It's capital
stock is 500. coo. 600 the tax would be
$4,000 a year. The company antag-
onized the assessment as a direct prop
erty tax and therefore unconstitutional
but the state supreme court sustained
the law ON the grounds that it pro-
vides only for a tax on the corpora
lions, using the capital stock as the
most convenient means Of ascertaming
the volume OF business.
In the course of his decision Justice
Peckham said:

nature OF the tax imposed by the
acts of 1909 or the former acts is
wholly uniniportant with reference 10
