Syllabus
<p>TAXATION —NATIONAL BANK SHARES —INJUNCTION.</p> <p>The assessment of the capital stock of a national bank, made to the bank in solido, is valid.</p> <p>The collection of the tax assessed upon the capital stock of a national bank will not be enjoined on the ground that the moneyed capital of such institutions is unjustly discriminated against, when the complaint does not show that, either by reason of the law or through the action of the assessors, some considerable moneyed capital, which is employed by individuals* in the business of making profit by the use of their moneyed capital as money, is permitted to escape taxation. The non-taxation of “credits” is not ground for such injunction.</p>
