OUR LANSING LETTER
Report of the Work of the State
lawmakers.
GOVERNOR HAS ATKINSON BILL.

Whether 1t VIII Ever Become "a Valid
Law or Not Remains To he Seen-Senate
Played Havoc with Some of the Sections
of the Bill-Proposed Amendments to
the State Constitution-High School Ex-
cursions to Lansing.
Lansing, Mich, March 14.-By the
time this letter is read the famous At
kinson bill for the taxation of railroad.
telegraph, telephone and express COM
panies, concerning which so much has
been written and said during the past
three years. will doubtless be law
whether a valid law or not remains to
be seen.
The legislature has finished its con-
sideration of the bill which is now in
the hands of the governor. The fact
that every member of both houses Of the
legislature, except four who were alb
sent, voted for the bill in the shape in
which it finally passed, leaves no rea-
son TO suppose that it will be vetoed.
The Pingree men, leaders and all, voted
for the amended bill, although they
were not entirely satisfied with some of
its provisions.
The senate played havoc with some of
the provisions of the bill, but still left
1t in quite acceptable shape. The
amendments made by that body dropped
the governor and secretary of state
from membership on the board OF asses
sors, made the auditor general chair
man of the board. but without a vote;
increased the number of civilian MEM
bers from two 10 three, and provided
that they should be appointed only dur
ing the sessions of the legislature and
be subject to confirmation by the SEN
ate; provided that the franchise should
be taken into consideration with all
the other property of a company in fix
ing such company's valuation instead of
being valued separately; struck out the
provision that companies should make
detailed report of receipts Of every sta
tion on their line. leaving them TO re-
port their entire receipts from what
ever source derived" changed the pen
atty for failure TO pay taxes from so
per cent. and subsequent forfeiture of
charter TO per cent. month: reduced
the salaries of members of the board
from $4,000 to $500 and all expenses,
and increased the salary of the secre-
tary from 81 200 to 81 500.
The friends Of the original bill were
particularly opposed TO the changes rel
ative to the appointment of members Of
the board of assessors. relieving the
companies of the necessity of reporting
the receipts OF each station, and re-
ducing tn esalary OF assessors. They
at first determined to make a warm
fight in the house against concurrence
in these amendments, but al the last
moment withdrew all opposition, the re-
suit being concurrence by unanimous
vote.

trict, 300 miles north of St. Mich
aels Island, where they spent the
winter. Mr.. Bates was well with
the exception of an attack of rheu-

might be expected home in Sep
tember. He reports having done
well.

BOUND BY THEIR CHARTERS.
Railroads nust Observe the Secre-
tary's Orders.

Several parties have wondered how
it came about that the railroads lent
themselves so readily to aiding in the
hay tax collecting. The reason is
that under their charters they are
bound to do SO and the secretary has
a way of bringing them to time in
short order A refusal might result
in proceedings to vacate their char
ters and cause them no end Of trouble.
