That Plan OF Taxation

The Richmond Times notes that the
incorporated in its report provision that
the tangible property Of railway and canal
companies and their franchises shall be
taxed, but their bonds and stocks shall
be exempt If this report is adopted by
the convention The Times thinks Virginia
Will lie placed IN the very front rank OF
the States in the matter OF sound prin-
ciples OF taxation.
Me ara not disposed to combat the
soundness OF the principle involved. It
is, of course. clear that il the tangible
PROPERTY of such q corporation is taxed.
and its franchise is also taxed, all Of
its property will have been reached. The
theory in the case of such companies is
that the difference between the cost of
construction and their outstanding stocks
and bonds represents approximately the
value of the franchise. The principle IS,
therefore, equitable
We apprehend, however that there may
be some difficulty in the practical appll-
cation OF it, at least until the assessors
become more familiar with it. The great
difficulty that is experienced in securing
a proper assessment OF tangible property
does not encourage US to hope for the best
results when it comes to tho assessment
of intangible property. We wish, how
ever. to cordially endorse this Statement
of The Times:
"Bnt some will say that a franchise
is an intangible sort OF thing, which can
not be fairly classcd as property. Non
sense. Here is a little street railway,
which cost in tho construction $4,000, but
which is sold fer siS5.e@. We know Of

RAILROADS AND IAXAI0N.

Our friend Mr. Braxton, in his able
speech in support Of the Corporation Cum
mission ordinance, said that railroads
ities, because these corporations possess
the power to levy a tax upon the people
OF the State He contended that the
power 10 fix rates was the power to levy
iaxes, and that This power should be exer-
cised only by the Government.
If it be true that the power Of q rail-
road company TO fix rates is indeed q,
taxing power, Their every corporation and
every mercantile concern and every 9TH
er concern that deals With the people,
possesses the same power. The price
which the merchant places upon his goods
is no more in the nature Of a tax than
the price which the railroad company
charges FOR hauling freight, nor is the
charge which 4 property-owner makes to
the person who rents his house. If Mr..
Braxton's idea concerning the railroads
IS correct. then the State should assume
control over all branches of business and
fix the price Of all commodities.
But if the State does no better in fix
ting railroad charges than it does in levy
ing and collecting taxes it wifi make a
sorry mess of the railroad business in
Virginia. Our system OF taxation IS I'M
aaual and utterly lacking III uniformity,
Bearing lightly upon some and with OPP
oression upon others. If the railroads of
The State were half as discriminating in
their traffic charges as the State is in
sevSins and collecting taxes. there would
be a howl Of indignation from one end OF
The Commonwealth to the other.

interests of the community, and says:
s'The present tendency of the younger
generation i'll rural communities to seize

il, the larger cities, is due in considerable
mart to a sense Of social needs. Existence
becomes monotonous where there is no
social variety and aside from tn 'oei"e
for larger business profit and for making
more Of a name, the longing to know more
people. to see more sights and to get
more closely into touch, with affairs is a
persistent pull on the content of the aver
age rural young man or woman. 1t is
cutie evident, therefore, that ii the young
people are to be kept in the towns and
villages. something must be done to I'M
nroye their social surroundings. lheir
need must be met-and met wholesomeiy
and as completely as possible. at the
same time 81 ch an effort, properly car
ried out, is ccr,ain to bring educational
results of ether values, for to make the
