PROE1IBITIVE TAX RATE

The APPEAL, il common with many
other Nevada papers, has beld that
the greatest stumbling block to the
advancement Of this State is the lew
valuations and high tax rate
We think We are able to illustrate
Just what this means.
The total valuation OF Nevada
property for the year 10 SIG. 6o2, JOG
Now anyone with ordinary common
sense knows that twenty-three mil
lions OF dollars is not One fourth the
valuation Of property In this State.
1t is worth at the lowest valuation
one hundred million.
A twenty-three million valuation
means an average tax rate Of s. SO
on the hundred. The valuation is 6c-
ticious and indicates to the outside
world that the State is retrograding.
The fictitious rate Of So SO indicates
k0dI kAlS ID q POOA PloNO ~ nsOoA "a r
ital. We cannot explain to the out
side world that three fourth of our
property escapes taxation for they
would at once refer US to our revenue
laws and point to the clause which
says that all property shall be taxed
to its fall cash value.
Thus we get the reputation of being
a poverty stricken State, that people
must keep away from because poverty
and high taxes rule, when as mat
ter Of fact, if our tax laws were prop
erly enforced, We would be regarded
as prosperous State with low tax
tate. In every financial center of the
world where capital lies waiting for a
chance to invest, will be found cane
fully authenticated record of the tax
rate of every section of the country.
Last summer the writer secured
from Mr.. Chas. Sain, editor of the

for one hundred dollars an acre and
the sugar in the beets ranged from "a
