The great fact stands out above and
beyond all that the railroad corpora
tions are already taxed in this State to
the full limits of justice and any addi-
tional burden of taxation placed upon
them would be simply prohibitive.
Here are some facts about TAXA-
TION OF RAILROAD PROPERTY IN
ILLINOIS:
The people should study them care.
! fully:
Railroad property in Cook County
paid 5.63 per cent of the entire general
taxes for the year 1000; As per cent
for the year 1899: 641 per cent for 1898;
and G5S for 1897.
A man who would purchase the prop.
erty of railroads on that basis would
| be insane.
Carroll County is one of the richest
farming counties in the State, and in
addition has three fair.sized cities, and
yet the property of two railroad CON-
panies was assessed for 2O.G5 of the
entire general tax for the year 1900;
1867 per cent for 1899: 1891 per cent
for 1898; and 16.S per cent for 1897.
In De Kalb County railroads paid
1O.77 per cent of tho entire general tax
for the year 1900; 0.G6 per cent for 1890;
11.43 per cent for 1893; and 11.42 per
cent for 1897.
In Du Page County railroads paid
1923 per cent Of the tax for 1900: 13.45
per cent for 1880; 1886 per cent for
1S9S: and 1915 per cent for 1897.
In Kane County are the two large
cities of Elgin and Aurora, and several
smaller cities. Railroads paid 0.46 per
cent of the general tax for 1900; S.14
per cent for 1899; 9.4S per cent for 1893;
and 95J per cont for 1897.
In Lake County, with the large man.
nfacturing city of Waukegan, and -four
or five smaller cities, railroads paid
11.35 per cent of the tax for 1900, and
about that proportion of the tax Of prior
years.
In Rock Island County, with the large
cities Of Rock Island and Moline, the
railroads paid S.4 per cent Of the tax
for 1900. and q similar proportion in
prior years.
For the year 1900 one large road had a
total assessment of Si0.05O Gin full val.
uc per mile. while the market value of
Its stock and bonds on the day of the
assessment was Si6,4I7 per mile.
The same road having lines in eight
different States paid general taxes for
the year 1900 outside of Illinois ut the
rate of SlS7.i3 per mile. while I'm ILL
nols the rate was S5203j per mile. and
In the city of Chicago the rate was 81.
