Excerpt from Records and Briefs of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, Vol. 7 of 8 In the matter of the reassessment of the operating property of the Northern Pacific Railway Company situated in the State of Washington, for the years 1935 and 1936. In December, 1936, the N. P. instituted a suit in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Washington, Northern Division, against the twenty-three counties through which it operates, their county commissioners and treasurers, seeking an injunction restraining the collection of a large portion of the taxes levied pursuant to the above assessments. In its complaint the N.
