BY legislation that has been perfected
during the last few days, following an
opinion by the supreme court against
the state in the taxing case Of the
4 Prairie Oil and Gas company, it may
develop that the state will gain much
J more than it could have gained II the
court had not decided adversely to It.
The court held that the adding of
! $10,500,000 to the taxable values OF
the Prairie Oil and Gas company by
the state board of equalization was
! irregular, and writ Of prohibition
the board has made its assessments
and caused the same to be certified to
the various county clerks and the
state auditor In the case considered
the board of equalization has added
for the current year the value Of
IS10,500,000 against the Prairie com
pany on motion of a special tax ferret,
IC. H. Pittman.
The legislature has attempted to
cure the defect in the law by enact
ing bill chat permits the board to
add any omitted or grossly under
valued property 10 the rolls either
after the underyaluation or omission
shall be discovered. In this lies the I
possibility of very much greater tax ,
upon the corporation in the case and !
other corporations. The state board
of equalization may go back a number
of years and make showing OF omit
ted or undervalued property in the
sum of several millions of dollars each
year if the showing of the tax ferret
in the case just decided be taken as
of conditions, and the law
has cured the defect that was pointed
out in the opinion Of the court.
