Syllabus

<p>The objections to the constitutionality of the provisions of ch. 135, Kansas Laws of 1913, taxing foreign corporations doing business in Kansas for such privilege measured on the proportion of its stock used in that State, resting in this case exclusively on the asserted invalidity under the commerce and due process clauses of similar provisions of the same statute in regard to domestic corporations doing interstate and intrastate business, and those objections having been found untenable (Kansas City & Fort Scott Ry. v. Kansas, ante, p. 227), the sole basis of attack on such provisions as to foreign corporation fails ¿nd they cannot be held unconstitutional in this action.</p> <p>95 Kansas, 271, affirmed.</p>
