In addition to the above number of pri-

is to the credit of the nearly 500 men
who quit. however. that they held self

PITCHER ISUPdELD
In DISTRICT COURT
Judge Perry SuStainS Tax Levy
of Denver Assessor
Declares State Tax Commissions Order
Arbitrary and Its Values
Matter Of Guesswork

Commissioner OF Finance Clair j..
Pitchers assessment OF Denver taxable
values was again upheld in a sweeping
decision rendered Monday in the Dis
trict Court by Judge John A. Perry. 1t
vas a victory for the people of Denver,
and especially the small home owner.
The court denied the state commissions
petition for writ OF mandamus, by
which it sought TO compel the assessors
compliance with its command, and dis
missed the action. The state tax COM
mission had arbitrarily raised Denver's
taxable values S55, ,40S ,952 which would
mean an additional annual burden OF
$3.50, 900 on the people of this city. The
attorney general. representing the COM
mission, WAS gwen five days in which
to present a motion for a new trial.
Pitcher Wins Three-Year Battle.
Commissioner Pitcher has been fight
ing the raises OF the state tax commits
sion for three years. He has main
tanned that the raises ordered by the
board have been unfair, arbitrary and
without warrant of law. His point
that the board had made its raise with
out investigating values in Denver WAS
fully sustained by Judge Perry. He won
the first skirmish in the present action
when Judge Renison, before whom the
case fell in the preliminary stages. ruled
that the states demurrer to his answer
was insufficient.
Judge Perry. who has had the case
under advisement since the middle OF
last week, declared in his written opin-
ion which accompanied his decision, that
the entire action of the tax commission.
including its proceedings before the state
board of equalization. which upheld its
arbitrary raise on Denver property. was
void and OF no force or effect. His
opinion. in reality, is rebuke to the
state board for the methods it employed
in attempting to saddle an additional tax
burden on the property owners of Den
Yer. tho. in closing. he observes that
nothing in connection with the opinion
is to he taken as reflection upon the
board or its motives.
No General Investigation
In his opinion Judge Perry voiced the
belief that, in his Judgment. the mem
bers of the state tax commission never
at any time. or in any manner, made
any sort of a general investigation with
respect to the values of the seventeen
classes OF property upon which it or
dercd an increase. The commission pro-
ceeded to order the assessor to extend
what amounted to an increase of al.TTe
per cent on the property eomprehended.
in spite of the assessors appraisemeut,
which was based upon actual investiga
ton and examination OF such property,
In his return to the commission Mr.
Pitchers schedule showed valuation
