.:uilding up Maryland's Agricul.
tural section.

On Monday The Sun" published an
account Of the sale of Howard county
farm to farmer from Switzerland The
transaction was brought about by the
state Bureau of immigration, and it H.
illustrates the condition of farming prop.
erty in Southern Maryland and shows
how the Southern Maryland farmer prof.
It's by parting with portion of his real
estate.
John G.. Miller, of Howard, the man
who sold the land to the Swiss farmer,
had two farms, but could not get suffic.
lent labor to cultivate them both, and he
could not get tenant. He was, therefore,
reduced to the necessity of abandoning
one farm or of attempting to work two
with labor only sufficient for one. By
the sale of one farm both will be we'll
cultivated. and that will add to the wealth
OF the county and to the prosperity of
Mr., Miller. In all the southern counties
of the State it seems impossible to get
labor. The population is undiminished
and there is the same number of negroes
in the census that there always were.
But in some way they have solved prob
lem that very few white people have been
able to master, and that is how to live
without work. The operations of the
State immigration Bureau are most bene-
ficient for those counties. Whenever it
succeeds in inducing an industrious white
man to buy farm and settle in one of
them it helps to solve the labor problem
and the land problem. A great portion
Of Southern Maryland is growing up in
bIushwood or washing away in gullies
for lack of labor to cultivate it, Most OF
this land is easily improved, and the soil
and climate of Southern Maryland are
suitable for almost any crop of staples
vegetables and fruit.-Bdl'imore Sun.

Intent of the Act.

The act on its face bears evidence of the
legislative intent to provide a system
whereby the inequities and inequalities ex-
listing under the old law might be avoided.
and property not before listed by the as
SCISSOR might be discovered and placed on
the tpx list. 1t is a matter of common
knowledge that back OF this legislative in
tent to improve the morale of the revenue
law there was the purpose to raise sufil-
Client revenue with which to meet the needs
OF the government and to reduce a contin-
ually Increasing state debt already far in
excess of the constitutional limit. Under
the old act the grand assessment roll OF
the state had never exceeded In round num-
bers $3.50 100000. and the total railroad as
scssnient had never exceeded s27.00 600, and
yet the law provided that all property in
the state should be listed and assessed. at
It's full. actual value. Under the new act,
which provided that all property should be
listed Mt its full actual value but assessed
ut one-flfth of its actual value. the grand
assessment roll OF the state was increased
to almost s3C00o0.O00 and the railroad as
sessment to about s47Ooo,Oo0. This increase
is conclusive OF the fact that the purpose
Of the new law was at least partially real

Attorney General Brown on Railroad Taxation

the company. is no guide TO the real value
of a property used and operated by virtue
Of a franchise; and for the further reason
that the railroads themselves and the courts
recognize the fact that the physical prop
erty Of the railroad in one state Is, from
the very nature OF its use, so closely re-
lated and associated with the physical
property of that road in other states as
to be practically inseparable therefrom.
All its physical property is used and OPP
Grated as indivisible and inseparable parts
Of the system operating through several
states each part in connection with every
other part. The courts are also unanimous
on the proposition that the Intangible or
franchise value of a public service cor
poration may exceed the value of its phys
ical property. But In this state the board
authorized by law to assess railroad prop
erty Is not permitted to ascertain sep
arately the value of the physical
property and the intangible or fran
chise property, and by adding the two,
find the actual value of the entire property
In view of these considerations Il would
seem that very little weight can lawfully
be given by the state board to the test of
the value Of the property measured by the
physical property test. This will more
clearly appear when we come to consider the
value of the railroad used in this illustra-
ton in the light of further investigation,
remembering that by this test the value of
the property of the railroad referred to is
only $4,000 per mile.

Information REQUIRED by Law.

The law next provides that the railroad
company shall make a sworn return TO
the board showing first the amount OF
capital stock authorized and the number Of
shares into which said capital stock is
divided; second, the amount Of capital stock
paid up; third, the market value of such
stock, OF II of no market value, then the
true value of the shares of stock; fourth,
the total amount Of all secured ana unse-
cured indebtedness, except for current ex-
penses of operating the road; fifth. the To-
cation and actual valuation of all Its real
estate and personal property In this state
that is locally assessed. 1t will be observed
that the first returned relates alone to the
physical property OF the railroad located in
this state; the second. return relates to the
value of it's stocks and bonds covering Its
entire property wherever located The leg
islature required third return to be made
by the railroad to the state board, which
should show the total earnings, gross and
net. of the corporation during the year pre-
vious. the total amount expended in opera
ton and maintenance OF the property and
the improvements thereof, also the last
dividend declared upon the shares Of stock
and the amount thereof. the date, number
ana amount Of all dividends declared upon
it's stock during the year preceding ana
such other information as the state board
IN writing must require. The law further
commends the state board in ascertaining
the true value Of such railroad property
and it's franchises to take into account and
consider these three returns required or
the railroad.
