The proposed increase in the cor
poration tax rate affecting railroads
an administration measure-will, if it
passes, yield about $4,000 year
added revenue. The bill proposes a
rising scale above the present rate of
two and one-half per cent paid on
gross earnings, whereby railroads that
earn more than $4,000 per mile per
year will pay one-quarter per cent al
ditional tor each $500 so earned, up to
$500 per mile, after which the rate is
tour per cent fiat. This will not raise
the tax rate of the electric railways. in
most cases, or OF the improbable
steam roads, but of the larger COM
panies supposed tC be able to meet the
additional demand. As this tax on
gross earnings is an alternative tax,
open to the choice of the company, the
company may, ii it prefers, pay on its
appraised value at the rate OF one per
cent.

SUBJECTS. 1t seems to be an outbreak of
the anti-MongOlian prejudice that pre-

resent the presence of the japanese

taken the matter up, but as the federal
authority is limited within the states,
1t may not be at all easy to satisfy
Japan. Coming soon after the killing
OF japanese poachers in the Alaskan

an antl-American feeling in Japan that
