COMP N|ES
MAY TIE UP GROSS
EARNINGS TAX Law
Will Delay Collection Of IL Per
Cent Tax For Several
Months

Due to complications resulting from
the passage of the gross earnings tax
law the State Of North Dakota and
political subdivisions are going to
be short, for a time at least, largt
sums of tax money heretofore paid BY
power companies.
The gross earnings law passed last
winter defines power companies to
mean companies furnishing electric
ity, electric power, steam heat or az
tificial gas. The new tax absolves
the companies from paying any other
taxes excepting special assessment
taxes where they own real estate.
An assessment OF IL per cent of the
gross earnings is assessed against the
power companies under the new law.
It is understood they are preparing
to take the case into federal court
when the law becomes operative on
January next, on the ground that it
is confiscatory and unconstitutional
The law was passed on the last day
of the session after the constitutional
time limit was past and the constitu-
tionality of the 'long" last day may
be brought into the case.
The companies have paid their taxes
for 1882 and under the old law the
state board of equalization would
have made a new levy against the
properties of the power companies in
September. The taxes would be de-
linquent after Dec. 81. Under the
gross earning law the equalization
board will not make the levy until
next April and the taxes will not
be delinquent until Aug. l, 1884.
The board can not make a levy un-
til the gross earning returns are made
by the power companies for the calen-
dar year which ends Dec. 81, 1888. As
a result the state will be out the tau
money usually paid by the companies
for several months even if the law is
not held up in the courts.
If the courts hold the law uncon.
stitutional the state will be compelled
to assess the companies under the ole
law, which will delay the payment Of
taxes for some time. If the court &C.
ton is lengthy one, which is prob.
able, and the decision is delayed, thu
state, counties, school districts ane
other subdivisions will find themselve.
seriously crippled for an indefinit.
period.

HOLDS CLERKS MAY
KEEP HALF OF FEE
IN NATURALIZATION
Former Interpretation overruI.
ed BY Assistant Attor-
ney General

Clerks of district courts are entitled
to receive and retain one-half Of the
fees collected in naturalization pro-
ceedings, P. o. Satire, assistant at
torney general, held in an opinion
which reverses the ruling of former
assistant attorney general given in
1881.
The opinion. given to Peter ]. Erick-
son, clerk of the district court at Will
liston, points out that under the uni
form naturalization act passed by
congress in 1906, the clerk of court
is required to account to the bureau
OF immigration and naturalization for
one-half of the fees collected, and
may retain the other half.
The initiated lSw of 1882 pertain
ing to salaries provides that the SAL
aries fixed by the act shall be the
full compensation for all county Of
ficfals, and all fees and compensa-
ton received for any act or service
rendered in official capacity shall be
accounted for and paid over by them
to the county treasurer, Satire said.
Prior to 1927, the schedule of fees
to be charged by the clerk of the dis
trict court for services rendered in
cluded services in connection with
naturalization proceedings. This law
was amended in 1927, the subdivisions
which prescribed the fees to be charg-
ed Tor naturalization proceedings were
omitted.
Is Federal Matter
1T will be observed, therefore
that the statute which provides for
the fees to be charged by the clerk of
the district court does not provide for
any fees to be charged for naturali-
zatlon proceedings" Satire ruled. I'm
this connection it should also be noted
that all blank forms and records
necessary in naturalization proceedings
are furnished by the federal govern
ment to the several clerks of the dis
trlct courts without any charge to the
counties"
Satire called attention to the opin-
ion OF Former Assistant Attorney
General Charles Simon holding clerks
OF district court must pay to the coun-
ty all fees they retain from naturali-
zatlon proceedings. Simon cited q
Wisconsin case to support his con-
tention. Satire cited an Oregon
supreme court case taking the opposite
view.
1T seems to me that the Oregon
case cited herein is decisive in this
matter" Satire held, and in view of
the TACT that our statutes are silent
as to any fees to be charged for
naturalization proceedings, it is my
opinion that the clerks of the district
courts are entitled to receive and re-
tain the one-half of the fees collected
In naturalization proceedings"
