PROTEST AGAINST
GARNISHMENT LAW
Tcs Case TO Determine ii % Per Cent
of Wages Can BE
Held.

Local merchants are Interested In
the probable outcome Of q case in the
supreme court to test the constitution
ality of the new oklahoma garuish-
ment law, passed by the legislature
last January.
The case is styled VIII and W II.
Stewards against the Credit Refer
ence company, and involves the sum
Of $3.50.
Attorneys for the plaintiff claim
that the new law is unconstitutional
because It does not state whether the
25 per cent which It places as the
amount Of income liable TO garuish-
ment is that part OF the whole income
or 25 per cent after the 30 days cX-
emption allowed by the old law has
elapsed In line with this IL is
claimed that the new law does not
repeal the old law. which provided
that 80 days wages should be exempt
from garnishment
The intent Of the law. according 70
members Of the legislature, was 10
repeal the old law and make one
fourth of a mans wages subject to
garnishment at ali times, and without
any exemption provision.
Question has also been raised as 20
whether or not the new law is retroac-
tive. Several credit bureaus have at
tempted garnishment for old accounts.
but il is generally held that the %
per cent law does not apply to debts
contracted prior to its passage
The new law was passed at the re-
quest of the retail merchants Of the
state and the retailers organizations
probably will make a fight In the su-
preme court to uphold It's constitu-
tionality.

Sheriff WooIIey Will Begin
Notifying Taxpayers
Monday Morning.
FEW CENTS TO $1,000 GOOD ATTENDANCE
One Big Corporation in City
Owes More Than
$500 in Taxes.

Sheriff James Woolley tomorrow
morning will notify 1900 delinquent
personal taxpayers of the intention OF
the board of county commissioners TO
appoint a special deputy sheriff ior
the collection of money due the county
on personal belongings. If the
amounts. which range from a few
cents to more tan $1,000, are not
forthcoming stocks of household ot-
fects will be attached and sold until
the obligations are satisfied.
The object of sending out these let
ters is to prepare the delinquents for
the collector, who may begin his duties
next week. Excuses will not be ac-
cepted. When the warrants are served
thcy must be satisfied. otherwise
quick and decisive action will be taken.
TIE warrants include the personal
taxes for the fiscal year 1913 as well
as 1914. Although there are hundreds
of residents of the county who owe
personal taxes for years previous, no
attention has been given them. The
countvsis determined to realize, as the
law provides, for the past two years,
however. and nothing has been left
undone to insure an ample Increase
on the credit side of the county treas
urcr's cash book.
Corporation Owes $500.
one big corporation in Tulsa county
owes $500 personal taxes for the
years 1894. These figures are the
largest on the sheriffs books, although
there are many as high as $500. The
majority are for sums ranging from
50 to $50, and these, it is thought, will
be quickly paid
Contests are probable in the cases
of the large corporations and manu-
factories, and it is even possible that
many of the storekeepers also Will pro
test against the assessment through
the courts. They will have to act
quickly, however as once their stocks
have been attached they must witness
the sale of their stocks.
County Attorney Ed Grassland prob
ably will recommend to the commits
sioners during their regular meeting
tomorrow that they have the power to
appoint a special deputy sheriff for
the express purpose Of collecting this
money. The question was left with
the county attorney last week, with
instructions to have his report ready
for the next meeting.
In the opinion OF the majority of
county officials, however, there is no
doubt that Mr. Crossland's report will
be favorable, as il is understood
similar appointments have been made
elsewhere in Oklahoma and have
worked wonders
/ II is.the intention to give attention
to Tulsa city proper after which the
collector will go into the county,
where it is understood many dollars
i'm personal taxes yet are outstanding.
The work is expected to consume the
greater part Of thirty days.
