TAX QUESTION
CHARACTERIZATION
COIOFed Property Owners
Pay No Tax For School
Purposes
ONLY ASSESSED ONE DOLLAR

Taxpayers in Wilmington, at least
the great majority Of them. will be
surprised to learn that colored people
are paying no school taxes this year.
while at the same time they enjoy
the same privileges Of public school
education as the whites. Colored prop
perty owners pay into the city
treasury but 81 on the 500 Of assess
ment, while their white brethren are
compelled to go down in their pockets
10 the extent of $3.50 on the same
bases Of assessment. Now the ques-
tion arises, why are tolored property
owners only assessed 81 and still get
all the advantages Of an education
that are extended to the whites. True
it is that colored scholars are not
allowed to sit with white children in
the schools OF the latter, but there are
schools nevertheless. which they can
attend, and receive the same instruc-
tion as white students. They have a
high school and the graduates from
this institution are as fully prepared
to enter college as are scholars Of the
Wilmington High School
City Tax Was Illegal.
Last year County Treasurer Burns.
acting on resolution passed by the
Levy Court of New Castle county.
levied a school tax Of 30'cents on the
500 Of assessment in this city. and he
collected about $500.
Then the question was brought up
whether it was lawful for the county
treasurer TO collect this tax, and the
latter to set himself straight. submit
ted the matter to Attorney General
Robert II. Richards for an opinion.
The latter informed Mr.. Burns that
after having examined the law touch
ing the question he found there was
no authority in law for the assessment
or collection of school tax from colored
residents Of the city of Wilmington
and he was Of the opinion that the
school tax was assessed and collected
without legal authority. He advised
County Treasurer Burns to retain the
money he had collected upon special
deposit until the meeting Of the next
Legislature, at Wnlcu time IL may Oe
possible to have such legislative ac-
ton as will authorize him to make
some disposition Of the money.
In consequence Of this decision the
Levy Court of New Castle county this
year did not levy a school assessment
on the colored residents OF Whining
ton, and as a result the latter are
virtually exempt from this tax. mas
much as the city tax collectors are not
collecting the same. The latter claim
they have no authority to do so and
put II up 10 the county treasurer
Therefore it appears to be a question
OF law and the matter, in the opinion
OF many taxpayers, should be settled
The school assessment IL forced OF
colored people would bring the city
$4,000 annually.
Where the Gain coems In.
BY way Of illustration, It it pointed
out that where colored people tenent
houses owned by white taxpayers, tbs
latter must pay $3.50 tax on the 500 Of
assessment. where as on the Other
hand, where whites occupy houses
owned by colored people. Of which
/ there are a number of instances, tn,
latter only pay 81. thereby having an
advantage of 80 cents. 1t Is not con,

company. the Indiana branch OF which

The hearing was held in the office of
Henry Wollman local counsel for the
Missourians and II looks as If 1t might
continue for an indefinite period. BY
means OF rapid-fre questions and speedy
stenographers Mr.. Hadley had hoped TO
finish up the New York end OF the mat

the examination the Standard oil lawyers
insisted that the questions and answers
be taken in long hand and he had to
yield.
This demand was made under section
919 Of the code OF civil procedure. which
provides that in cases OF this nature the
commissioner must take down the testi-
mony in writing

ON The COMING
EXPOSITION
Justice John 7. BIOdgett Ad-
dressed R. |. Business Men.

Justice John r. Blodgett. head of the
Rhode Island jamestown Ter-Centennial
commission. gave an interesting address
last night before the meeting Of the
Rhode Island Business Mems association.
He explained fully the purposes Of the ex-
position and the particular line OF devcl-
opment OF it's purpose to bring out.
While Industrial exhibits from all the
states as we'll as from foreign peoples
would be welcome. and would be given
all due attention, the Judge said, it would
be more especially the purpose OF the
exhibition to show up the historical de-
velopment of the colonies and OF their
subsequent outgrowth, the present United
States Of America
In speaking OF what had already been
done towards making the exposition
success. Judge Blodgett called attention
TO the fact that President Roosevelt is
deeply interested in the matter and gave
It some space in his last message to con-
gress.
That message, the speaker said. had
stated that already 16 states had sighihed
their intention OF participating in the
exhibition. either by making appropria-
tions or otherwise. Some OF the states
only have biennial sessions of their legis-
latures and this fact accounted for the
lack OF action on some OF the states which
have not yet signified their intention OF
taking part, but doubtless will.
In speaking OF Rhode Island from a his
torical standpoint, Judge Blodgett said:
There are few states where history
carries them so far back I'm the annals
Of the western hemisphere as does that OF
Rhode Island. Rhode Island was n coll
ony longer before the declaration OF in

Even then IL refrained from taking
action until the temporary laws had been
promulgated. and during the interregnum
there were no laws.
While the government did not desire to
act for fear of arousing indignation. the
revolution gained headway.
The policy It is now following is solely
for the purpose Of making possible the
holding Of the elections and accelerating
the convocation OF the national assembly.
