Description
The validity of this statute is challenged by plaintiff in error on three grounds: The first is, that its operation results in a lack of uniformity of taxation upon the same class of subjects, to wit, shares of national banks within the State; and the argument of counsel is that it conflicts with article 9, section 1 of the constitution of the State of Pennsylvania, which requires that "all taxes shall be uniform upon the same class of subjects within the territorial limits of the authority levying the tax."
