POLL TAX IN COURT
First Legal Step Against Law Is Taken
Today.

First legal steps to test the consti-
nationality of the poll tax law, i'm
posed upon cities of the first class by
the recent legislature, was taken to-
day when George P. Hayden, city at
torney, and Robert Carver, county
attorney, filed an application for a
writ of mandamus in the supreme
court to compel w. H. WATSON, COM
missioner of finance, to turn the
money collected into the hands of the
city treasurer. Oscar w. Gregg and
Frank B. Brown, representing the
anti-poll takers, are made parties in
the writ on the grounds that they paid
under protest and that the writ if
granted, should embrace them. thus
making further suits, as a result of
protests, impossible.
The supreme courts decision will
be state wide in its scope, determin-
ing whether, or not, othe- cities will
be justified in collecting the tax
There were LOO notices sent out to
pay poll tax. About 500 have re-
sponded.
The city officials announce that
they realize many are waiting to de-
eide whether the law is institutional
before paying and while the legal time
is up August 81. no fines will be inn

upheld by the supreme court as con-

The Santa Fe shop men were in
strumental in starting the agitation to
fight the law. Following a number OF
