SOME PERTINENT rscusHs IND rlus

BDIToR CENSoRi In a group of tax
payers here, YESTERDAY, the paragraph
copied in this weeks paper, taken from
a speech delivered lately by Senator Nc
Calvary, was discussed tn some length.
If IL is fact az therein stated, that the
numerous street ca lines pay only $42
600 in taxes in this state, when they
should pay $3.50 600, it is one of the
things which people, in Justice to them
selves ought TO right. This il show
ing which ought 70 stir every citizen,
yet we have an example Of injustice in
corporation taxation ut our very doors
which makes the street car matter look
like an infant in comparison. The Kick
apoo railroad, which has its terminus in
this village, paid the enorm rs sum of
1856 in taxes the past year Juss think
Of it--a railroad with sixty miles of
trackage it's landed interests, depot
buildings, stock yards, franchise, engines,
cars, engine houses, water tanks, repair
III rps and other property worth thous-
ands of dollars, pays to the state in lieu
of all general and local taxes the enor-
nous sum of 1885, What did this road,
to the present tim, cost the company?
A near approach TO million dollars
1t is but a few months since the COM
pany was rendered S400, 600 for the
property, which was refused, and sell
ing price fixed at 800, 900, yet it paid
but 1855 toward the general tax burden
of the state How many individual tax
payers along the Kickapoo Valley are
thus favored? None. There are indi-
vidual business men, firms and farmers
along the line who pay in excess of this
amount Of tax, who do not own one IF
tieth or one hundredth part of the
property value of this corporation. But
hear some one say; This is poor
and struggling road, and it is all the
company can afford to pay" Very well,
why not extend the same privilege to
other payers whose investments and
property La. 70 yield big profits2 The
men who own this road are wealthy
citizens of Milwaukee and other cities,
who do not invest the ir money where it
is unlikely to return good profit, soon

WlscnNslN,S DEAD.

Hon. Jesse Stone, Lieutenant Cover
nor Of the state passed away at his
Watertown home, after a long and pain
full illness from cancer of the stomach,
Governor Stone waswell known through
out the state, having been twice elected
to the honorable position which he held
at the time of his death, also as a mem
her of the legislature for several terms,
and represented the republican party OF
the state in two national conve 4tions.
Mr. Stone was better known as bust
ness man Of experience and standing
rather than politician He was gen
tleman of influence in private business
and official life. He was born in Eng
land sixty-six years ago, emigrated to
this country in 1871, and to Wisconsin
twenty years later.
No greater tribute need be proclaimed
to the memory of the dead man than to
credit him with sincerity of purpose IN
official. business and social life. He was
a mar Of high ideals, slew to determine
but steadfast to maintain when once be
arri we'd at conclusions. He was plain
and unassurning, a good friend and noble
father and husband.
Many Of the years since 1882 the
writer has been associated in official
capaci ty with Jes, Stone. His taking
off is tantamount to personal loss.
