elections on the ground that the fabric
of our government would rest on more

of the people themselves under it. 1t

commission would be instrumental, with
out another line of law on the statutes
regarding the taxation of public service
corporations, in making street railway
companies, for instance, pay taxes cor
responding to the value of their fran
chises. This is a good thing for those to
keep in mind who fear that the public
service corporations features of the Ja-
cobson bill would amount to income con-

How IT WOULD WORK

1t is interesting to estimate what might
be the taxes of some of the public service
corporations under the operations of the
Jacobson bill. Let US take the street
railway company--the Twin City Rapid
Transit company-for example. F..
The bill provides that street railway
companies shall be assessed on real es-
tate, personal property and franchises.
The value Of the franchise is to be de-
termined by adding together the value of
the capital stock and the bonds Of the
companies and deducting therefrom the
valuation of. the real estate and tangible
personal property. The residue is to be
used as the basis for determining the
value of the franchise. It is to be noted
that the insertion of the word basis"
gives considerable leeway for discretion
on the part of assessors. Assuming that
in the case of the Twin City Rapid Tran
sit company, which is a company believed
to have assets worth its entire capital
stock and bonds, the assessor should
conclude that the residue mentioned was
the value of the franchise, as he we'll
might under the law, it would be found
to be $22,648,OO0; the company's capital
stock being $1s,00o,O00, it's bonded indebt-
edness $685. 900, and its assessed valua-
tion Of real and personal property $780,
600. Taking the tax rate at 80 mills, the
tax on such valuation of the franchise
would be $679,440. The tax on real es-
tate and tangible personal property would
be about 100000, making the company's
total tax about $500, 900. In practice the
rate would average lower, but the COM
pany might have 20 pay $750,00O on
its lines in Minneapolis, St. Paul, Still
water and connections. The gross in
come of the company last year was $3,173,-
600; the net, $1,75S, 900. The estimated
tax would be equivalent to gross in
come tax of rs per cent, or a net income
tax Of not far from 80 per cent
or course it is not likely that with
the convenient word basis on which tc
use administrative discretion the COMPANY
would ever find itself confronted by sucf
An enormous tax bill as $500 1t would
not be surprising, though, to see it com.

which is urged as reasonable rate O

Is no doubt paying much les
now than it should. Under tn
theory OF the tax commissions code
the company would have had to pa
about 100000, assuming that valuation
would have been trebled.
We apprehend that the street railwa
officials do not expect that with fair
minded tax officials they would be exor
bitantly taxed, but it is the Infinite pos
s1bilities' of the scheme that alarr
them.
