PANi BRINGS SUIT AGAINST
STATE TAX COMMISSION TO
HAVE aSSESsMENT DECIDED.

Contending that the tax commits
sion has no authority to assess tele-
phone systems. the whole of which Is
confined in one county, the White
Pine Telephone company filed an ac-
ton in the clerk s Office last Friday
against the Nevada State Tax Com
mission. The plaintiff seeks a de-
cree from the district court asking
that valuation not to exceed So
800 be placed upon the corporations S
holdings in this county.
The tax commission found that the
full cash value of the eompany's es-
tate was $4,000. and the state
state board of equalization reduced
the assessment to s67.50 The tele-
phone company contends that the
action of the state board is unjust
and discriminatory The corpora
ton paid taxes on $40, 500. represent
ing three-fifths of the defendants ap-
prasisement.
II is recited in the complaint that
the plant Is not worth more than
s16,50o and that IL was assessed in
1914 for $500. The plaintiff con-
tends that the tax commission ex-
eeeded its authority In placing
AT the time the increase was au-
thorized, the company appeared be-
fore the commission at Carson and
protested against fixing a valuation
above $4,000. eontending that it
would be grossly excessive, Illegal
and unwarranted. Plaintiff alleges
that the commission refused to modi-
~ or correct the mistake.
The telephone company paid into
s6sS.65 to the county treasurer. but
this action was not deemed as a
waiver of right TO just and proper
assessment to be determined by
court of competent jurisdiction
The tax commission was controlled
and influenced largely If not entirely,
by the earnings of the telephone
company and physical conditions con-
slant depreciation and the probable
life of the district were not taken
into consideration the plaintiff con-
tends
The complaint alleges that the as
sessment fixed by the high moguls in
the world of taxation wasnot even
based on earnings fixed on value. but
on considerable less than the current
bank rate of interest of every bank
ing institution of the country. 1t is
also set forth in the complaint that
the amount paid in taxes is more
than is justly and legally chargeable.
The telephone company has agreed
to pay up the second installment on
the FIRST Monday in June, and asked
that the county treasurer be required
to refund the special deposit to be
made covering taxes for the last
period. After reciting that it has
been customary to assess property on
the basis of sixty per cent valuation.
plaintiff ask that its holdings be
appraised on that basis

and women roasted viii Stanley a
negro, to death in the public square,
alleging he was guilty of the murder
of three Grimes children and the bru-.
tai assault on Mrs. Grimes and her
husband.
Arrested near Bolton late yesterday
afternoon with two other negroes,
"SIim" Harris and "Dicey" Bell,
Stanley told conflicting stories as to
how he came by a pair Of Grimes
trousers. Just before he was dragged
into the funeral pyTe he is said to
have confessed that he held the horse
while "Sim" Harris did the killing.
At exactly midnight the frenzied
mob, in which there were children as
well as women, took Stanley from the
officers, dragged him to the public !
square, meantime kicking and curs-
ing him. He took the proceedings |
stOicaIly, asking that they permit !
him to tell the whole story. Some
one in the crowd answered this re-
quest with a bullet and the crowd /
