The State Tax.
To DANIEL WooDALL,
Wilmington, Del.

EXTENSIVE ASSESSMENTS ON TELEGRAPH COM
PANIEs.
We have heretofore referred to the extraordi-
nary character of the State Tax law, and our
readers will not be surprised at any other of its
astonishing features. 1t lcvies special taxes on
Banks Insurance Companies Canals, Railroads.
&c, and then, to gather everything generally
provides for tax of one-fonrth of one per cent.
upon the cash value of the capital stock of any
corporation chartered by this or any other State
"lawfully doing business in this Staie.''
This seems Ikea sweeping provision and SUCH
In one Instance, at least, it proves to be. Thus
The western Union Telegraph Company, charter
ed by other States, does business in Delaware, of
course, having within Its borders @ large number
OF offices. Now the cash value of its capital stock
may be sct down at about eighteen millions of
dollars, counting the shares at u cir present SELL
Ing rates at the stock boards Then Just cacu-
late the tax owing by the Western Union Telc-
graph Co., to the State of Delaware for the year
ending next April. Thus
Capital stock, caslr value. sls, 900, 900
One per centum of above, $50. 600
One fourth OF one per cent, 10000
That is all The Delaware tax on the Western
Union Telegraph Co., is just 5i5, 900 for this
year! and is due and payable after the LIST prox.
As might be supposed, MIR. Wcstbrook, the
wilmington agent of the Company, looks at this
little item, somewhat wOndeiingly, and is not
quite sure there isn't some mistake But the
State Tax Assessor, Mr.. Springer, has politely
furnished him with n blank for his annual return,
and perhaps the Collector expects soon to receive
a check for tho amount-upon this point we are
not positive, however.
There Is no other case where the tax will be
excessive, unless 1t be that of the Adams Express
Company. We are not positively informed as to
its precise capital, but it runs into the mi lions
and II II should amount TO say five millions, the
tax would be s12, 800. IL Is however minated
that ii is not an incorporated company and hence
does not come under the law.
