Resolution
Il
phone & Telegraph Company has de-
clined to pay the full amount of taxes
assessed against it for the year 1919,
upon the ground that the valuation
of its property as fixed by the state
board of equalization was largely in
excess of the valuation at which 9TH
er property in this county, as well as
in other counties, has been assessed,
and has instituted suit in the Federal
Court in certain counties of the state
to enjoin the collection of a portion
of said taxes, in which it has been
agreed by the parties to said suits as
a compromise measure that. the said
company should pay its taxes for the
year 1919 in said counties upon the !
basis of seventy-five (75) per cent of |
the total taxes assessed: and
whereas, he attorney general has |
recommended to this board q similar
compromise settlement of the COM
pany's taxes in this county; and
Whereas, it is the Judgment of this |
board that such compromise set
Element should be made,
Now, therefore, be it resolved:
That the treasurer and tax collector
of this county be, and he is hereby
and directed to accept from
The Mountain States Telephone &
Telegraph Company, in full settle
ment of its 1919 taxes, the additional
sum of six hundred seventy-one dol
lars and ffty-seven cents ($67l.57),
it appearing that said company has
already paid the first half of said
taxes, and that said sum be accepted
as full and complete payment of all
taxes due from said company for said
year.
Such authority to the tax collector
is conditioned upon said settlement
being made before February /, 1921.
