AFFIRM DECISION
OF GRADY COURT
IN TAX HEARING
Case Heard Here In District Court in
1915; involved Taxes on Land to
Pay for Drainage Ditch.

In q decision just handed down by
the state supreme court, the decls-
ion OF the district court of Grady
county in the case of Il. b. Johnson
vs.. II. N. MullicaH, as county treas
urer of Grady county, was affirmed.
The case, according to the rec
crds in the office of Mrs. Edna T..
Watkins, court clerk, was tried be-
fore Will Linn, district judge, here
in 1915. The action was a suit pray
ing for an injunction restraining the
county treasurer from collecting a
special tax against one-half section
of land, levied to pay for the con-
struction of drainage known as drain
age district No 2, created in 1911.
Mr.. Johnsons contentious in the
case were that his one-half section
was not benefited by the drainage;
that it was an Indian allotment and
therefore not subject to tax. Judge
Linn granted the injunction, follow
ing which the case was appealed to
the supreme court. At this time,
John H. Venable was county attor-
ney.
The bonds issued for constructing
the drainage system in drainage dis
trict No. 2, near Minco, were issued
to Matheney-Dixo company. This
company has been pushing the ca SO.
Mr.. Johnson Is a brother of Ben
f. Johnson, vice president Of the
First National bank here. He is a
banker and stockman at Norman,
and is owner Of large land acreage
near Minco.
