All stocks Of corporations organised
under the laws Of other States than
Illinois, that are owned In Chicago, ore
taxable here.
But through some Overslght Of the
Board Of Assessors and Board Of Re.
view, a majority Of the most valuable
escape taxation.
The Chicago Eagle has been looking
up the facts In this matter. as 1t II
OF paramount importance to every man
woman and child In the city.
Already enough valuable stock In
outside corporations has been found
omitted from the tax schedules to foot
up a good total In taxes alone OF So
100000.
Twenty millions Of dollars!
Just think OF 1t.
Why, that sum would buy all Of the
street railroads In Chicago, equipment
and all.
1t would raise the salaries Of the
Rrcmen of Chicago, and they ought
to be raised.
It would raise the salaries Of the
school teachers and they ought to be
raised.
1t would give us the best lighted and
hest paved and cleanest streets In the
world, and u lot of other good things
| besides.
The Chicago method Of taxation Is
tn take the total valuation and then
make the owner pay on One-fifth Of that
valuation.
The tax is about per cent on this
fifth.
Where taxes have not been paid on
any foreign capital stock, the Supreme
Court has decided that the authorities
can 60 back and collect taxes for i've
years.
Yhls is where the twenty a,illloRs
will come in.
Let us look at few corporations.

II, as is alleged, this stock has ~
capped taxation here, then there Is due
the people from this source alone, for
five years, at $4,000 per year. the fine
sum OF 100000, enough to raise the
salaries OF firemon and school teachers.

The Chicago Junction Railway is In

The tax is per cent on one.nfth OF

One-afth of $l3,OOO.OO ts 100000

How many electric lights would II

The stock Of the Union Stock Yards
Company of South Omaha, Nebraska
corporation, Is all owned In Chicago
and taxable here, hut it seems, like
others, to have been overlooked.
The Union Stock Yards of South
Omaha, is corporation capitalized at
$7,5OO,00O.
The taxes on this stock If collected
for five years, would put $525, 900 In

Among others Armour 4 Company

The following taken from pages 20l
and 202 Of the report Of the United

tells US something upon this subject:
"The New Jersey corporation was
formed for the purpose OF transactlng
certain business which the Illinois
corporation was not authorized to
transact. Armour & Co. Of New Jer-
sey operates practically all the branch
houses for the sale OF beef and other
packing house products supplied BY

the Armour packing houses ut Sioux

ience the accounts Of Armour & Co. Of

tain the business transactions OF the
