ANOTHER FALsEHooD REFUrED.

WouId-be-govenor Willis in his speech
the other day at Mcpherson. made this
statement: .sThat the railroads of this
state are assessed for taxation at only Spe-
cent. of their value, while other property
is assessed at from 30 to 10 per cent. AS
Willis is riding about the state Oh a free
railroad pass. he ought not to make such
statements. His object. we suppose WAS
more to misrepresent the republican state
officers who act as a board of state assess
ors. than to injure the property OF the
gentlemen who furnish him free transport
tation.
Now the following table. compiled from
official sources, show how far he fell short
of the truth when he made such reckless
assertion:
Assessed valuation of all other
property than railroads for the M. ~
year 1855. SIS sol Bi w
Railroad assessment, lSss........ -. o29,664 %
Other property, 1889 ..-...:...- ag,3d.,oo5 %
Railroad assessment, lSs9.......- 81, 49,, $40 81
Other property, 1890. 2o9, O9ei .
Railroad assessment, lS9J........ $3.50, Do 81
Railroads pay one-siXth of entire taxes.
Increase in railroad assessment since adj
ministration of Governor Humphrey, 3d.
036, 56S.4 IS.
Decrease in assessed value of other prop
erty than railroads during Governor Hum
phrey's administration, So, 0l0, $3.50, or
8 v-.lp in fa
vor of property, the taxes of which are
paid by the people, as against that of rail-
road corporations, Sl4,0E, 52S.23. This
is the showing during the administration
of Governor Humphrey.
The total value of all railroad property
as near as we have at hand the data for
estimation, is Sl65. 734 ,36l %; the assess
ed valuation for taxation purposes for the
year 1890 is as stated above. S57 .S66, 232. 81,
and this makes the assessed value more |
than 33 per cent. of the total valuation, and |
We doubt if the other property of the state
is assessed at 33 per cent. of its true value.
There are $3.50 miles of railroad COLI
structed and operated in the state, and its
actual cost of construction, including roll
ing stock and all other equipment to this
dale. is little less than $4,000 per mile,
making total of Sl65, ,3Gl.2S. This
does not represent either the value of the
stock or the earning capacity of the vari-
Gus lines, but it is the actual cost of con-
struction and equipment as gathered from
various sources. OF coarse, railroads have |
not a commercial or market value as other
property has.
If Mr.. Willis does not know anything
more about the state affairs than he does
about the taxation of railroads, he had
better be sent TO the district school for a
term rather than be posing as a candidate
for governor. And now that Willis has
called the attention of the public to this
matter, we embrace the opportunity to con-
graduate the people of this state Oh the
fact that they have state officers who do
their duty to the people, and who are not
influenced nv railroad cOrrOratiOnS
