Tax Matters.

The Collingswood authorities are in
somewhat of a quandary. The tax rate,
as fixed by the County Board Of Taxation,
was $2.01, and after it had been settled
and the list of ratables had been printed
the Collingswood officials discovered that
it would require 25 cents more on the 800
to give them the money needed for NUM-
cipal purposes. But the time for allow
ing this increase had expired and the
common council will have to devise other
ways and means to meet the expenditures.
There Is no way in which the tax rate
may be changed after 1t has been fixed by
the County Board. Such q procedure
occurred in a neighboring county last
year, and the offending official who took
1t upon himself to make a rate that would
suit the case was called to account, and ii
we are not mistaken, was removed from
Office.
Another matter that has been called tc
the attention of some of the taxing au
thorities is the tax on dogs. A decision
from the Office of the Attorney General II
to the effect that township committed
has no right to remit or omit the tax OF
dogs. 1t had been the custom In town
ship, In Ocean county also, to remit thu
amount put upon dogs, 80 this year a new
assessor thought 1t was useless to put oil
the duplicate something to which no at
tention would be paid. The County Boar
refused to approve his work and referred
the subject to the Attorney General, VIII,
decided that 1t is mandatory to levy AM
collect dog tax. 1t is made obligator'
upon the township collector to kill ever,
dog whose owner refuses to pay the ia;
and If the collector does not SO kill, he
liable for the amount of uncollected do
tax.

Found Dead.

Schuyler Rainier, Of Florence, wa.
found dead on Wednesday. He left hi
house with his horse and wagon, going tt
the cornfield for the purpose of doing
some work When dinner time arrived
the housekeeper, Mrs. Nixon, was startled
to see the horse returning without 6
driver. She at once went to the field tc
see what was the matter.
There she found Mr.. Rainier lying or
the ground, apparently unconscious.
Close examination led her to believe that
the man was dead, and she summoned
medical aid, and soon found that her fears
were true. The man had been seized
with some affection of the heart and had
died, the doctor said, soon after reaching
the field.
The fact that Mr.. Rainier always
carries considerable money with him, and
the appearance of some bruises on his
head, led to a rumor that he had been
murdered Coroner Bisbing was sum-
moned and after he, and the doctor, had
made a careful examination of the body,
and discovered considerable money In the
pockets undisturbed, the conclusion was
reached that death was not the result OF
violence.
Mr.. Rainier has been In the eye of the
public very much during the past year
owing to robbery which took place at
his home and for which he had a neighbor
arrested. 1t transpired. however, that the
latter was innocent, the real thief being
caught In the west, and is now serving a
sentence In the state prison.

Milk Shippers Object.

A number of Burlington county dairy
men appeared before the public utilities
commission at Trenton on Thursday, In
support of complaints previously fled
against the Union Transportation Com
pany, alleging discrimination In the matter
of shipping rates, and char ging unfairness
on the part of the company toward milk
shippers by compelling them to load their
own milk on cars. The commission heard
witnesses and arguments in both matters,
and reserved its decision.
The complainant against discrimination
In the matter of rates was /. E Harrison,
dairyman of Cookstown. He appeared
as his own advocate, and charged that the
Union transportation Company charges
milk shippers at Cookstown 1926 for ten
tickets, each Of which Is good for the ship
ment of one forty quart can to Philadel-
phia and return, whereas shippers from
other points within the Hightstown ship
ping zone are charged only $3.50 for ten
tickets. Mr.. Harrison claimed that when
the Union Transportation Company OBJ
tanned control of the line from Hightstown
TO Pemberton, 1t at once doubled the
freight rates that had heretofore prevailed,
alleging that this was in violation of law.
Former Senator Barton B. Hutchinson,
of Trenton, appearing as counsel for the
transportation Company, by argument
and by the testimony of officers of the COM
pany, coDtended that there had been no
increase In freight rates by the company
since 1888, and that the difference In the
rates at Cookstown and other points with
In the Hightstown shipping zone were
made necessary In order to equalize the
rates that prevail on the branches of the
Amboy division of the Pennsylvania rail-
road that tap that territory.
Herman Croshaw and William Miller,
both of Wrightstown, were the complain
ants against the company in the matter of
compelling dsirYmen to load their own
milk cans on the cars They charged that
an order to this effect was promulgated
by the company on August IS, last, and
that no such condition was imposed upon
snC uoAA AOh OAOACA Wy tuC puUliSutu rules
and regulations of the company or by Its
contracts with the milk shippers. They
claim that such requ irement was unjus
to the dairymen. Harold B. Wells, of
Bordentown, appeared as counsel for Cros-
haw and Miller.
The company, answering the complaint
through Its counsel and witnesses, asserted
that the milk shipper, by reason of the
perishable nature of their product, were
given faster shipping facilities than almost
any other class of freight shippers, the
milk cars being attached to passenger
trains. This. 1t asserted, was large con-
cession to the dairymen, and for this rea-
SON the company felt that they should do
their part by loading their cans ON the
cars. Il was stated that such course Ia
pursued by all roads expect such as run
!; regular milk trains, and this the Union
Transportation Company cannot afford to
do. To have the milk loaded on trains by
| railroad employees, 1t was stated, would
mean an added expense to the company O
at least s., 600 year. A decision was. no
reached.
