eording TO a decision rendered by
Judge Ritchie in the Third district
court Thursday in the case of the
Black Rock Copper Mining & Mill
ing Co. against Secretary of State

The action was brought by the
Black Rock Copper Mining & Mill

act passed by the last legislature tax
ing corporations upon their capitalize

to the Black Rock Copper Mining &

other companies. The matter came
before Judge Richie several weeks
ago. and was argued upon a demur-

ground that the facts stated did not
constitute a cause of action.
The plaintiff in the case contended
that the act In question was class
legislation, and also that corporations
should only be assessed upon the
valuation of their property. and not
upon the amount of their capital
stock. Judge Ritchie merely sustains
the demurrer, which holds the act
constitutional, and passes the matter
