William II. werth, lawyer of Tazc.

tion was that no pays license tax

to assess his income I'm addition
After consideration, Judge Kegley
upheld Wcrth's view, and entered an
order forbidding the commissioner to
assess him.
This Will be OF no effect whatever,
since Auditor G. Lee Moore has dctcrm-
ined to ignore 1t. In the assessme nj
OF Incomes, the commissioners act
solely as agents OF the State, and
therefore, he holds the local courts
have nothing to do with 1t. Moore
has addressed letters to the commits
