Kyle v. . Commissioners

Opinion of the Court

Rynum, J.

The only distinction between tbis1 case and the other between the same parties, decided at this Term is, that the tax here was levied for the year 1874, and the revenue act of that year does not in express terms tax the shares of non-residents in National Banks located in this State.

We have decided in the other case that no distinction can be made between resident and non-resident shareholders and that the Constitution and revenue laws require the tax to be levied upon all shares in National Banks, and that the laws equally apply to non-residents, whether named or not.

For the reasons stated in that opinion, the judgment below is-reversed, and the action is dismissed.

Pe® Curiam. Judgment reversed.
