LINCOLN. July 10.-(Speclal Telegram. J
Tho supreme court tonight delivered an
opinion sustaining the tax commissioner
feature of the now Lincoln charter which
was fought vigorously by several large
Lincoln corporations, principal among
them being the gas ami electric company.
Unless further prevented by a motion (or
rehearing tho city may proceed to collect
taxes upon the valuation Mxcd by Commis
sioner Altkcn, The general effect of this
new law will bo a reduction In the rate of
taxation and an Increase of $3,000,000 to
J20.000.000 In the total valuation of taxable
property. The opinion was written by
Judge Hastings and, an exclusively pre
dicted In The Uee several days ago, It up
holds nil of the contentions of City At
torney Strode.
M) Itnliu of tlic Citnr.
The Byllabtis of the case Is as follows:
An net ot Match 27, rU. reUitln to tlio
government of eltlc of H),wX to luO.OW In
habitants is not void for uncertainty as
regards the olllce of rax commissioner.
Tho provisions of the net ns to tax com
missioner do not violate the constitutional
requirement of uniform taxation.
It Is not aa to tax commissioner void us
being forbidden special legislation.
It is not un amendatory net nor BUbJect
to the constitutional requirements ns to
amendments.
lt provisions! as to tax commlsssloner,
nre sulliclently covered by Its general title,
The principal point Involved In tho litiga
tion was the question of uniformity of
taxation, It being alleged that the law dis
criminated In favor of the railroads. In
this regard Judge Hastings says;
Tho provision ihat railroad property
shall bo assessed at the valuation llxed by
ihn Stntp Hoard of Kmiiillzutlon certainly
Cannot bo held, whether constitutional or
not, to deprive the tax commissioner of all
authority to assess property within the
corporation. Our constitution expressly
provides that property rdi.ill be taxed ac
cording to Its value, to be ascertained In
the manner provided by the. legislature.
Tho legislature, In Its wisdom, has clodded
that the value of railroad property can
bo more accurately nnd Justly estimated by
tho Stale Hoard ot 'equalization than by
local nssessors and has exercised Its con
stitutional prerogative that by providing
that rallro.nl property shall bo assessed In
that manner.
Whether or not II Is reusonablo to sup
pose that the State Hoard of KqUaltzatlon
would Imvo more knowledge nnd a better
opportunity to make a Just valuation of
such property than local assessors Is quite
unnecessary to bo determined In deciding
upon respondents' right to uct as a tax
commissioner.
Why may not several valuern constitu
tionally act unon several different hinds
of property, or upon tho same property for
the purpose of (liferent taxes? The real
objection to this act. sn the ground of uni
formity, Is, evidently, the Idea that value
Is not such a fixed quantity thnt It Is pos
sible for two Independent appraisers to
agree. If values are llxed for the purpose
of municipal taxation by one body of as
sessors, anil for county and stntn by an
other, It Is practically certain that the two
will disagree. Knough Is said above to
lndlcnto nn onlnlon that the only uniformity
required us to any tax Is thnt It should be
unirorm throughout tne jurisdiction, i. e.,
that state taxes shall be uniform through
out tho state, county taxcti throughout
the county and city taxes throughout the
city. (1'ieuier against state, u rseu., mi.)
In closing Judge Hastings says:
To say that this net may bo abused and
may In ItH practical workings result In a
lauure oi nniiormiiy oi inxniiou is noi
to establish Its unconNtltutlonallty,. If all
laws which may full .to bring about u Just
and eoual valuation of nroriertv and a uer-
fcctly fair and equitable adjustment of
taxation are to bn held unconstitutional, It
Is to bo feared that not only tho city of
iincoin, out every otner municipality in
tho state of Nebraska, might have to wait
a long whllo for authority to collect Its
revenues. It Is therefore recommended
thnt this case be dismissed.
Judges Day and Klrkpatrlck, the 'other
members of the division, concurred in the
opinion, making It unanimous.

An Important point In the case of the
State against the Standard Oil company
was arsucd before Referees A. S Tibbctts
and C. C. Wright In the office of the attor
ney general this morning. It concerns the
mlmlsslon of former Attorney General

tent! of the books and records of the de
fendant company.
A few months nfter the suit was Insti
tuted tho supreme court Issued an order
authorizing the attorney general to cx
amino any or all recordsof the company.,
C. J. Smyth, then attorney general, at
tempted to examine some of the prlvuto
records, but was denied tho privilege by the
officers of the company. He then pre
pared nn affidavit In which ho set forth
what ho believed to be contained In tho
books. This affidavit was filed at the last
sitting of court and objections wfre im
mediately recorded by tho attorneys for
the Standard Oil company.
Tho question was taken under advisement,
but It Is believed that a dcclslou will be
rendered within' a few weeks.
