JAMES O.. GRAHAM OUT
attorney General Won't Keep Him
as Counsel IN Franchise Tar Cases.

Albany, Jan. 25 (speciaD.-Attorney General
Jackson sent a letter to James G. Graham OF
New York. to-day, revoking his designation as
counsel for the state in franchise tax valuations
Mr.. Graham was First Deputy Attorney General
when Julius NJ. Mayer Attorney General
He resigned the office in the latter part Of De-
cember, and was Immediately designated by MIR.
Mayer TO appear for the state before the State
Tax Commission.
In Attorney General Jackson's Relief Appro-
priatioa bill as agreed on by him and the Sem
ate Finance Committee was an item setting
aside a sum of money for investigating viola
tions Of the tax laws The belief here is that
this latest action by the Attorney General is
merely forerunner of distinct excursion
against the franchise tax delinquents. In this
connection will be remembered the charges pre-
ferred last year by Frank White against the
corporation tax bureau OF the Controllers Of
fee. Mr.. White is First Deputy Attorney
General. Also the removal of Mr.. Graham. a
Republican. is in line with Mr. Jackson's taking
into his own hands the investigation Of election
expenses by Diminishing Gherardi Davis
The franchise tax valuation cases. in which a
review is sought, constitute a most important
matter involving property valued at $45O,000,-
200 by the Fire Commissioners. and taxes that
amount TO slightly over $30,OG0OOO.
Many corporations In New York City have re-
fused to accept the franchise valuation made by
the Tax Commission. claiming that it was far
above the actual value of the franchises and
they have appealed 10 the courts. No franchise
tax. in many instances has been paid to the
state for six years
Among the corporations which have refused 70
pay this tax and demand lower valuation are
the Metropolitan Railway Company. the Second
and Sixth Avenue railroad companies. the
United Electric Light and Power Company, the
Interborough Rapid Transit Company the West

tance of the cases TO the state, Mr.. Graham re-
signed his position First Deputy Attorney
General in order that sIr. Mayer might designate
him for this work. The present Attorney Cen
erals letter revohing that designation gives no
reason, nor does II make any explanation for the
action. Mr.. Graham was informed of his dis
missal, requested TO turn in all the papers IN
the case 20 the Attorney Generals office and
thanked for past courtesies.''

association appearing against them. Permission
was not granted. Subsequent history is told in
a letter sent by the association to each member
OF the new Legislature, which says. in part:

waite uses then, in their capacities of members Of

pTessions Of public sentiment. When this asSo-
citation applied for public hearing before the Ju-
dietary COMMITTEE OF the Senate, of which the
informed that none could be given and the reSo-
luton was damned through In the rush Of the
closing hours of the session
When Governor Hughes was asked about the
measure to-day. he answered: Il do not care to
discuss it further than TO reiterate what said
in my message to the Legislature on that sub
tect"
What he said then gives an ample outline OF
his views After urging decidedly the carrying
on of the policy Of acquiring forest lands, the
Governor said:
In this connection II is well 70 consider the
great value OF the undeveloped water powers
be preserved and held for the benefit OF AL the
people. and should not be surrendered to private
interests. It would be difficult 20 eXaggerate
the advantages which may ultimately accrue
from these great resources OF power If the COM
mon right Is duly safeguarded.

BILL IN THE ASSEMBLY.
What POper Companies Wamt-
Governors altitude.

Albany, Jan. % (special) Mer-
rita, OF St Lawrence County. presented to-day
his constitutional amendment permitting the
flooding OF state lands. Senator O'NeIl expects
20 introduce IL in the Senate in few days. thus
launching on the necessary second year IN the
Legislature this gigantic scheme 20 take thou
sands OF acres OF the states forest preserve for
the benefit OF the power companies.
This measure purposes 10 modify a clause OF
the state constitution to make It read as follows;
'"rhe lands OF the state now owned or hereafter
acquired. constituting the forest preserve now
fixed by law, excepting such lands as the Legis-
lature shall provide by law shall necessarily be
used for the storage OF water for public pur-
poses and the construction OF dams therefor,
shaIl be forever kept as Wild forest lands" To
be effective a constitutional amendment must
be submitted TO two legislatures and then TO a
vote OF the people OF the state. Senator Malby
and Assemblyman Merritt showed the measure
through the last Legislature. and its supporters
hope 20 get IL through the present Legislature
early. They have little fear OF its being de-
feated on vote at a state election.
Power companies and anything appertaining
10 them are not popular at the Capitol just now.
sn view OF the tremendous sentiment loOsed be-
cause OF the opposition 20 the Letchworth bill.
The power companies. which still have many
things 20 get from the state, were most in
sstent that opposition 10 that measure be aban-
doned. kilograms by the score were sent 20
legislators. saying, IN effect: For heavens
sake. pass that bill and don't give every power
scheme in the state a black eye for all time -
In consequence Of that feeling a report had
spread that the Merritt amendment would not
make its appearance this year. but would go
over until next session. when some OF the senti-
uent might have subsided.
Apparently however. this opposition has had
little deterrent effect on the power people who
want to food Adirondack tracts. Senator
ONeiI. in speaking OF the measure to-day,
voiced the sentiment OF many OF them when he
said that the passage OF this bin would do COM
paratively little harm 10 the Adirondack forest
preserve. since the total nOOdable area was not
