22 S.D. 202 | S.D. | 1908
This is an action involving the validity of certain tax levies- in Pennington county. The facts arc fully stated in a former decision affirming the judgment of the circuit court. Fremont, E. & M. V. Ry. Co. v. Pennington Co. 20 S. D. 270; 105 N. W. 929. Two propositions ■ were considered: (1) Whether chapter 41, p. 44, Raws -1899, was intended to limit the levies for all county taxes to 8 -mills; and (2) if such was the legislative intent, whether the limitation was constitutional; the court concluding that it was the intent of the Regisl-afure to-limit county levies for -all purposes to 8 mills, and that such -limitation in its natural and reasonable operation impaired the obligation .of contracts. Appellant, of course, concedes the correctness of the first
The judgment of the circuit Court is -affirmed. .
