The permission Of the State for any
corporation TO conduct business is a
taxable franchise. according TO a de-
cision rendered by the Supreme Court
yesterday. Every Incorporated con-
cern in California from a fake oil
company 10 the Southern Pacific Rail-
road is affected. 1t is impossible to
form any adequate idea Of the amount
Of Increased revenue which viii in this
manner accrue to the State. county
and municipal governments during the
course Of the next year.
The value Of these corporate fran
chises" is 10 be fixed by deducting the
value Of tangible property from the
market value Of the stock in each
company. When 1t is realized that
many concerns have little other tan
gible property than Ofice furniture
and paper, though the market value
Of their stock is considerable, it may
be seen that when the subtraction in
oicated by the court has been per-
formed. there viii be left something
on which the Assessor may get TO
work
The Bank OF California, which in
sutUted suit against the City and
County Of San Francisco, will have to
under the new order of things. There
are more than fifty other banks in
this city alone and all Of these will be
affected, TO say nothing Of the other
corporations with which the State is
crowded.
Four Justices rendered the decision,
two dissented, and one did not par
uclpate. The attorneys for the bank
viii petition for a rehearing. Asses
sor Dodge and Assistant District At
torney BrObeck say that this decision
IS the most important TO the taXpay-
ers Of any that have been rendered
for twenty years.
STOCK CANNOT BE TAXED.
Under the laws Of California the
stock Of corporations cannot be taxed.
Hitherto this has meant a release
from taxation Of an immense amount
e OF taxable property. Under the Su-
preme Court decision the tax on fran
chises viii counterbalance the loss ex-
perienced through freedom of stock
q from taxation. Thus one OF the great
sources Of corporate wealth will no
longer escape paying taxes.

ADVERSE REPORT
MADE BY SEC. ROOT
SAYS THE GOVERNMENT CANNOT
OWN AND TAKE CARE OF ALL
SPOTS OF HISTORIC INTEREST
IN THE UNITED STATES.

Washington, January 7.-Secretary Root
has made an adverse report on
the bill introduced by Senator Martin
providing for the purchase of the Mclean
property at Appomatox. Va, in commem-
GRAFTON of the surrender of the Army Of
Northen Virginia to General Grant
The necessary expenditures for the bat
tlefleld parks already authorized" says
Secretary Root ARE and will continue to
be so great that l do not think this bill
ought to pass. The effect of 1t probably
would be to create another park to be
owned and cared for by the government
The national government cannot own and
take care of all the spots of historic inter-
est in the United States.
II transmit herewith a statement of the
moneys already expended for national
military parks, and estimate of the prob
able cost to complete these parks. and the
annual maintenance therefrom, from
which 1t will appear that the expendi-
lures already have amounted to nearly
SO, 000, 900, while 1t is estimated that more
than half million dollars will be required
to complete the military parks already au-
thorized for the maintenance of which.
after completion, over $4,000 will be re-
quired annually"
