AGAINST THE CENTRAL PACIFIC
Tn. California sapr.ms Court Passes on
the rss pns-ttoa

the rss pns-ttoa
San Francisco, Jan. The Supreme
Court has filed It's decision in the six
cases Involving the Central Pacific rail-
tan by Justice Harrison. The decision
was against the railroad companies.
Superior Judge HehbartI's declaration
that the railroad assessments foe 1857
were valid WAS sustained.
The Supreme Court found that inter
est on unpaid taxes was not imposed
by the statutes. and the amount de-
creed by Judge Hebbard for interest
was dtsallowed.
The penalty OF per cent Is included
In the sum each railroad corporation
must pay.
The opinion OF the court was writ,
ten by Justive Harrison The decision
settles points which the railroads have
been raising for years to avoid pay
Ing the taxes. Justiye Mcfarland rem
dsred a dissenting opinion The rail-
road companies may find some conso-
latlon Ia the fact that they save over
$4,000 In interest and the fees al
lowed oae lawyer The companies Will
have TO pay. however the amount OF
the taxes. which win be SCAT 800. with
, per cent. penalty and Langhorne 4
MiIler's fe,-s, about $4,000.
The decision declares among other
interesting points. that 1t is lawful to
asss.ss a railroad at its value without
deslucting the amount Of its mortgages,
as i done In the assessment Of other
property. The supreme court also re
Ie--ts the contention that the assess
ment In question Is void for the reason
that II includes the franchise received
by the railroad companies from the
United States. II was cOntended that
the franchises received from the state
had been merged into that given by the
United States. The decision declares
th, contention is not supported by any
authority. Justice Mcfarland In his
dissenting opinion holds that the assess
nent was void because IL included
federal franchise. and thus attempts to
tax one OF the means employed by the
United States government In carrying
out It's sovereign powers. 1t was not
auparent to him how the state iran
-hise could be separated from the other.

THE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE
DR.. Ellis Recommend. Fewer Experiment
stations.

stations
DIR. Ellis, president OF the Agricul-
tural College. and director of the eS-
pertinent station, in his anual report,
Just published, criticlses the policy of
multiplying the number OF experiment
stations.
He says that four are enough for
Colorado. and that others could be
profitably discontinued. He deprecates
the expanded areas covered by the ex-
isting stations. and thinks 50 acres suf
ficient TO intellieently present an at
tractiye and useful object lesson in
farming. The fact that the state has
been able to sell but 81 900 of surplus
product from six experiment stations,
covering 100 acres each, is. he thinks,
evidence that something Is wrong. The
insufficient appropriation for conduct
ing the stations on the present enlarged
scale. makes the result unsatisfactory.
In commenting on the agricultural
course at the college. he says the
classes are small and the interest poor
ly sustained. the manual labor required
being performed in perfunctory and
half-hearted way. ON the other hand
the department OF mechanical engineer
ing Is crowded beyond its capacity.
The doctor thinks that greater interest
might be created under different
method OF instruction. The question
has already been raised in hegard to
the Agricultural College. whether its
course OF study has not been shaping
away from agricultural and towards
polytechnic lines. To make agricul-
lure attractive as well as practical Is
