AFTERNOON SESSION.
THE RAILROAD TAXES.
Counsel for the Company Gives His Views
on the Subject

on the subject.
In conversation with an Alta reporter
yesterday Creed Raymond, the attorney for
the Southern Pacific Company, said "Our
company is ready and willing to pay its
share of the State taxes for the fiscal year
of 1886 81, and it is It's purpose to pay taxes
in the future, whether there is any law to
collect them or not. There is great need
of revision of the tax laws, and | believe
that railroad companies should be taxed on
their gross incomes, as the most lust and
equable basis. We are willing, however,
to pay 60 per cent. of the amount levied on
our road-about $500, 000-and then we will
be paying a greater tax than any single
track line in the United States Besides
this State tax we pay under local assess
ments State taxes on our workshops, Office
buildings and depots, beside the city and
county taxes. We pay more taxes to this
State than any railroad corporation does to
any State in the Union. The trouble is that
the State Board has always included in its
assessments property and franchises on
which we claim that we ought not to be
taxed. The Courts have sustained us in
this, and, as the legal and illegal have been
inextricable mixed, there has been no al
tentative but for the Court to declare the
whole assessment void. Some of the press
do not understand this, and convey the i'm
preston to their readers that the company
tries to evade the payment of its taxes.
That is not the fact, but we do not wish TO
be taxed out of existence. So far as the
taxes of 1SS6-S7 are concerned, the Supe-
rior Court has rendered decision that re-
lieves US of all liability in law. 1 believe
that the Supreme Court OF this State will
affirm that decision. do not see how it
can do otherwise, because it is sound law
But we are nevertheless willing to pay 60
per cent, because we believe that is about
the proportion which we would be legally
liable to pay if the assessment had been
properly and legally levied."-S. r. Alta.

A Warning.

The modes of deaths approach are va
rious, and statistics show conclusively that
more persons die from diseases of the
throat and lungs than any other 1t is
probable thas everyone, without exception,
receives vast numbers of tubercle germs
into the system, and where these germs
fall upon suitable soil they start into life
and develop, at first slowly, and is shown
by slight tickling sensation in the throat,
and if allowed to continue their ravages
they extend TO the lungs, producing con-
sumption, and to the head, causing
catarrh. Now all this is dangerous, and il
allowed to proceed will in time cause death
At the onset you must act with prompt,
ness; allowing a cold to go without atten-
tion is dangerous, and may lose you your
life. As soon as you feel that something is
wrong with your throat. lungs or nostrils

Owing to the inclination of many
people to be humbugged in the
purchase of articles of necessity in
the household, we feel it our duty
to sound note of warning 10 those
who seek remedies for the relief OF
the aches and pains incident to
this season of the year. The great
and growing popularity of BEN

scrupulous manufacturers to offer
many worthless substitutions and
limitations OF that valuable rem
edy; hence we would advise those
who wish to secure prompt relief
from Coughs. Colds, Hosrseness,
Pleurisy, Chest Pains, Sciatica,
Rheumatism, Lumbago and Back
ache, to carefully avoid worthless
plasters by always asking for
BENSON'S, and let no persuasion
