passed by the last Nevada Legislature
instructing our Senators and requesting
our Representative to urge the passage
of an Act Of Congress which will enable
the various county authorities to collect
taxes on lands granted to railroads and

The said resolution, with its preamble,
being read at length. Mr.. Kendall made
a few appropriate remarks. in the course
of which he said: These companies
either own the lands that have been
granted in aid of their roads or they do
not own them. If they own these lands
they should pay.taxes upon them as upon
their property, i'll like manner as the ma
tural person or the individual citizen is
compelled to pay taxes upon their prop

revert to the Government and to the

them q source of State and national rev.
