L. Sharp, who in In KoHeuiirg directing the claHHillcation of the lands. They contend that dur ing these years the lands Hhould not have been on tho tax rolls and that If the Government makes payments, uh provided under the lYrrin-('ht.ni-berlaln grant land hill, It will do so voluntarily und without right to re imburse itself from the company, or Its associates. Tho refusal 1h Incorporated In a lotter Bent to Louis L. Sharp by the land department of the Southern Pa cific Company at San Francisco, un der date of November 24, and sets out in detail the grounds upon which the company bases lis position. The company claims that "no power resta in the Congress of the United States to declare or maintain a revestinent of tho title to the rail road company's property In the man ner attempted by said act (the grant land hill); that in the event the United States pays any taxes on any lands granted, such payments will be voluntary paymenls by the United States of taxes upon another's prop erty, and will not be recoverable by the United States from the owner of such property."

From this It argues that no taxes can bo levied by the slate or coun ties on the grant lands for the period between July 1, l!H:i, and June 21, 1916, and that (he counties cannot enforco tho collection of taxes for that period. The letter also states that the com pany "has or may have oiher lawful reasons why the taxes for the years 19 13, I'M 4 and 1 ! 1 5 should not be paid, eidter in whole or In part," and that It "reserves to itself the right to advance and rely upon suc h other reasons at such lime or times as it may desire."
