the proper construction Of See. of tho Rev.
cnne law as amended by the act approved
April 10, 1876, relating to tho valuation for
taxable purposes of tho franchises, priv
ilcges, and other intangible property of
corporations. Tho Attorney .Genoral in
atructs the Board TINT the meaning and in
tent Of tho statute is that tho property Of
corporations, tangible or intangible, shall bo
assessed the same as the property Of individ-
11als,-at its fair cash valuo; md TINT
"a strictly uniform rulo should bo observed
in reference to individuals and corporations,
and thore should bo no uniavorable discrim-
inatlon against tho lattor in assessing their
