The city ocouncll granted a fran- chise to F. B. Elce in May, 188 for & period of twenty years, and ome of the stip- ulations of the ordinance was that Eloe #should be required to pay the eity of Mitch- ell 10 per cent of the gross receipts In ex- cess of §2,400. Elce made his first payment in 1901 and for the succeeding years up to 1904. In ‘that year e #old his local ex~ change to the Dakota Central oqmpany, which had been granted a franchise to con- duct a long-distance system within and through the eity, but it carried no tax clause. The court holds the ecity exceeded its power when it imposed the tax. —_— MORSE GETS TEN-DAY STAY Convicted Bamker Givem Chance te Ofter Motion for New Trial.
