0UITMAN is DIVIDED
OVER. TAX ASSESSMENT

QUITMAN. Ca, Sept. 1a-The con
troyersy between the mayor and coun
ell and certain merchants here in re
gard to the justice of certain specific
taxes. has reached a most interesting
stage. The merchants appealed from
the mayors ruling that the tax mus
be paid to the council as a whole. fol
"a decision.
At its last meeting the council listen
ed to the reasons advanced by the mer.
chants to support their contentious; tn,
specific tax ordinance was thoroughly
discussed and it's alleged discrimina
lions and inaptitudes pointed out No
a member of the council denied tn,
truth of the showing made and Alder
man Mcleod said he though the whole
ordinance was illegal.
Other aldermen agreed the take!
were unequally levied on certain line:
of business. and the ordinance itsel
was obscure, nevertheless the council
sustained the mayors ruling in full b!
a majority vote. The defendants IL
the case Immediately notified the coun
Gil of their intention of taking the
matter to the superior court on a GER
tiorari.
A strong feature of their argument
in court will DE the councils admission
that the taxes are what the Insurgents
say they are. If the court verdict Is
favorable to the insurgent merchants
all the others who have been taxee
under~protest will demand refund OF
their taxes.
It is understood the council was
very much divided on the question OF
the tax at the time it was first discuss
ed, but it was finally put through as
a sort of emergency measure 70 raise
needed funds Most people seem t
think an ad valorem tax would more
equally divide the burden.
