If the Government makes payments,

voluntarily und without right to re

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."

forfeiting tho grant lands In the
United States and revesting tide In
the United Stales, was reversed by
tho Supreme Court of the United
States, June 21, 1015.
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."
