Illinois Supreme Court December 22, 1915 (People ex rel. Burton v. Wabash Railroad)

Mr. Justice Dunn

delivered the opinion of the court:

This appeal involves the validity of the same taxes involved in the case of People v. Illinois Central Railroad Co. (ante, p. 236.)

In its objections the appellant states that the item of $10,000 in the county tax is excessive. The evidence shows that $4000 was required, to pay the salaries of county officers .for which the county was liable.
