1T is ALL A FARCE.
Attorney General Tells Truth
About Railroad Inspection.

The state board of railroad assessors
are preparing to start on their tour Of
inspection of the railroad lines of the
state at 1880 o'clock tomorrow morning.
Lieutenant Governor Hanna came down
from Hill City today to join the other
state officers who compose the board, in
making the inspection. The southern
Kansas line of the Santa Fe will be the
first inspected.
It has been commonly supposed that
the law requires the board to make this
inspection, but Attorney General Cole
man says this is an error and he is Op-
posed to it. He can find no such re-
quirement IN the statute relating to
railroad assessment The custom was
probably started years ago by some
board that wanted to take q trip over
the state, and it has been kept up ever
since under the impression that the law
requires it.
The inspection is all a farce" said
Attorney General Coleman today. The
law contemplates that the board shah
get its information by subpoenaing the
officials of the railroad companies TO ap-
pear before it with their books and an
swer any questions that the board sees
fit to ask about the value of the roads.
It is impossible for board to get any
idea of the value of a railroad simply
by riding over it, I can't find anything
in the law TO compel such an inspection,
and while I don't wish to be captious
if the other members of the board want
to take the trip, 1 would much prefer
to stay in my office

of the whereabouts of D. J. Kelly Of

Superintendent Goodrich said this

that the plant is in bad condition, or
has been allowed to depreciate in order
to make a showing for economy. 1t Is
true that the plant is electrically over
loaded, and that / have had to refuse
to put in some electric lights which the
council ordered simply because the
plant Will not carry them. The reason
we have six or eight lamps go out on US
at night is because the plant is over
loaded.
Another dynamo would relieve this
present overload. and would in addition
allow us to take on about forty new
lights. I know where we can buy a
good second hand dynamo for $780, The
present boilers viii carry another dyna-
mo all right, but will not carry two
more. If more than one dynamo is
added it would necessitate additional

plant. This is a. question which could
be profitably considered in view of the
city ownership of the waterworks. The
two plants might be prohtably consoli-
dated.
If the mayor and electric lights COM
mittee desires to get at the bottom Of
this matter, I will gladly pay half the
cost of hiring an electric expert to make
a thorough examination of the plant and
report whether or not it has been al
lowed to go to pieces"

of the penalty.
Only such companies as have lines ii
more than one county are assessed by
the state board. but all such come un-
der this law. 1t is not yet known Just
how many delinquent companies there
are. because a number of new COM
panies have built lines during the past
year.
The section Of the statutes fixing the
penalty for not reporting to the board is
in part as follows.
In case any company required to file
statement under the provisions of
section CT531) fails to make and hlc
such statement on or before the Goth
