The increased assessment OF the rail
cad property cannot be defeated. Judge
SimCnton may defer its operation nth
the meeting of the Legislature In June.
but the Legislature then can make the
assessment for 1900, and can assess at
q figure nearer in keeping with the actual
value of the property than the conserva-
tive assessment OF the Commission. 1t
IS to be hoped that the railroad authori-
ties, in view of the recent delisiOu, will
hot prosecute their untenable contention
further, but will come forward and pay
the taxes due as assessed. We con-
graduate them that the year 1890 WAS
II of uneNampled prosperity, and trust
that the future will be equally prosperous.
enabling them to continue to earn large
sums of money and pay taxes on a fair
valuation.
