Of April. That the Ware Shoals Com
pany was chartered on the 9th of
August, 1902, and in 1905 its char
ter was amended whereby it's capital
was increased; that it has paid all
fees and charges for said charter re-
quircd by law and under that charter
has been engaged in business; "that
the license tax provided for by the
said license Act of 1904, as amended
i'll 1905, imposes conditions and bur-
dens upon your said petitioner which

impairs the obligation of the charter

violative of Section 10 Of Article 1
Of The Constitution of the United
States and Section 7 Of Article l Of
the Constitution of South Carolina,
which prohibits the passage of laws
impairing the obligation Of contracts.
Further, "That said license Act Of

rs applies to corporations organized

and therefore the said license fees
cannot be collected legally from such
foreign corporations; and also that
said License Act of 1904 by it's ex-

Of individuals such a tax and does
