Out In Courts.

Bismarck. N. D., March 15.-De-

serting that funds were squandered
in the Werner creamery operated by
the commissioner Of agriculture and

pany Of Bismarck. representing the
creameries of the state subject to tax.
has filed answer to the suit Instituted
by Commissioner of Agriculture and
Labor j. A. Kitchen to compel them
to pay the tax
The creamery opposes the states
suit to collect the tax, which was
levied by the legislature on butter fat
which to operate an experimental
creamery, on the following grounds:
That while the said chapter 149
Of said session law is ostensibly for
the purpose of managing and operat-
ing a state experimental creamery.
the primary purpose as specifically
expressed in said chapter 149, is the
ing and marketing of dairy products
and b~y-products: that by reason
thereof the said chapter 14s is I'M
constitutional.
Special Privileges. +.
That the law grants special prfvt-
leges and Immunity ton the dairy in
dustry of the state. makes unreason-
able classilcations which arbitrarily
and oppreesively discriminate against
the business Of the defendant and de-
prive the defendant Of equal protec-
ton Of the law.
It further opposes the collecting OF
the tax for the reason and upon the
ground that no experimental work
has ever been or Is now being con-
Quoted by the plaintiff: that for a
short time prior to h last day OF
January. 1921, the commissioner OF
agriculture and labor did operate a
creamery in the western part OF this
state but that the same was operated
solely as a competitive private indu-
try, was OF no benefit to the dairy
industry of this state or to h industry
or business in which this defendant H
engaged and that while the said
creamery closes it's doors long prior
to the last day Of July, 1921. after
having fully demonstrated its inability
to promote either Of h said indus
tries aforementioned. such funds AZ
had Heretofore been assessed n col.
lected under and by virtue of said
chapter 149 were squandered and
wasted nearly the whole Of said yeal
1921"
The case probably will be heard ir
the Burletgh county district cour'
soon. The attorney general is prose
cutting the action for the commits
sioner of agriculture and labor.
