The question of the constitutional

on the bread trucks and vendors is j
contrary to the constitution of the..

defendants.
This case is somewhat similar to
the case filed against the city of Fre-
mont some months ago when the
council there levied a tax of some
$250 a year on the bread trucks,
much larger sum than here, where
the tax was fixed at $150 for the
year.
The baking companies, after the
hearing of the case in the police
court, nled notice of appeal and tiled
a bond to cover the appeal of the
case and under which they have been
