win R.duo. Our shar. of Stat. Tax.

Lansing, August 24.-The real
bone of contention before the state
board of equalization. which began
itc public hearings Wednesday is
the report of the state tax commits
sion purporting to give the actual
values of property in the various
counties of the state, and the injus-
tices claimed are so many that the
figures will likely be changed in
some instances.
Coming as an official document,
the report of the tax commission is
sweet music to the railroads, as 1t
is an acknowledgment that the gen.
eral property Of the state has been
underyalued for assessment. pur-
poses. The railroads have been
gathering data for months, and the
position taken by the tax commits
sion will now force counties to in
crease their valuations.
Representatives from 26 counties
were heard Wednesday and judging
from their stories, Michigan is a
poor state, at least for this week
From the progress made, the board
will be able to finish its labors this
week.
Representatives from the agricul-
tural counties got together and de-
cided to stand by the report of the
tax commission, after it was shown
that If these figures are adopted
their proportion of the state taxes
will be considerably reduced. This
is absolutely true, and it Is interest
ing to note just what counties would
be the gamers. Under the present
equalization, Lenawee county where
Tax Commissioner Horton lives,
Pays 2.24 per cent of the state tax,
while the tax commissions compu-
tstion would reduce Lenawee's
share to 1876 per cent.
Secretary LOOMS happens to re-
side in Ionia county, which now
pays 1.27 per cent, which would be
reduced to 1.13. Houghton county,
which claims Tax Commissioners
Shields as resident, now pays 8
per cent of the state tax and its share
would be more than cut in two.
Shiawassee county is reduced
from 1925 to 1.03.
In round numbers the state tax
found that the general
of the state is worth $751;
$4,000 more than 1t was assessed
'or in 1911.
Attorney L. e. Stewart of Battle
Creek, who appeared for Calhoun
county, objected strenuously to the
'act that Battle Creek was given
higher valuation than either Kala-
lIaZoo or Jackson.

AT one of the recent meetings of the

bic time was taken in an endeavor to
ascertain whether a discrimination in
freight rates of two cents on hundred
pounds on sugar shipped from Balti.
more, Md. to Pitt,burg, Pa, or from
Owosso to Pittsburg, Pa, was sufficient
to prevent the producer at this or any
Michigan points from competing with
the sugar trust in the Pittsburg mar
ket. The witness, who was an expert
along railroad lines and familiar with
the sugar business gave it as his opin-
ion that the difference would prevent
competition. The daily reports of the
hearings show that Congressman Ford.
ney has taken an active part in the
questioning of the witnesses and many
of his questions have brought answers
not to the liking of the sugar trust
officials.
