Property is Wanting on Tax
List.

property. This includes the value Of
railroads, street railways, telegraph

water works and electric light and
power stations, amounting in all to
1892, 1885, 06. Deducting this from the
personally there is left $768,S73,382,
which can be compared with the per-
sonalty now on the tax rolls. An as
sessment Of real property in 1906 gave
a total Of $753,585,056, including $751;
225,645 of assessed valuation Of mining
properties
Personal Property.
The personal property assessment
amounted to s163,432,357, which to-
gether with the real property assess
ment made the valuation for 1906
$917O17,413. The valuation for 1907
(the additions were confined to the
valuation Of mining and personal prop
erty) reached the sum of about $780,
100000 for personal property, making
the total assessment for the next tax
