F City Enterprise

Miller very much needs a city
hall, building for puplic hall, council
chamber, auditors office, and a
place for all sewer, drainage, and
water records, a room for the fire
engine. hook and hose carts, and a
work shop for tools. implements etc.
This question ought to be taken up
and pushed through on the city lot
on Second street. The voters
strongly endorsed this enterprise at
a vote taken four years ago.
The /. o. OF, lodge has a lot
near this location. and are now con-
sidering a building. The two could
be built together.
The Dakota Central Telephone has
begun the erection Of good build
ings. where they have considerable
business, and already look favorably
upon Miller as a location for such q
building.
The library people are arranging
The preliminaries and hope to get q
Carnegie building.
A united and persistent effort
will carry some Of these PROPOSE
tons through: They are worth
while.

TERMINAL TAXES
CAUSE TROUBLE
A, 3. & A. RAILROAD AND THE
STATE IN MlXUP OVER PAY
MENT OF TAXES.

rather curious state of affairs
has developed regarding the wharf
and dock facilities of the Atlanta.
Birmingham and Atlantic railroad in
Brunswick.
When the road put in it's docks and
wharf in the GlyIn county metropo-
lis, the city of Brunswick agreed to
exempt the property from taxation
for a period Of years, This period Of
exemption expired last year and The
property is now subject to taxation
in Brunswick for 1911.
But a serious difference arose be
tween officials Of the road and BIuns-
wick city authorities over tie valua-
tion Of the property. The road placed
valuation of $200,009 on it, while
the city contends that it s worth ful.
ly $75O,OOO.
With this wide difference Brdny-
wick officials finally wrote ComDtrol-
Ter Gen Wright in an effort to secure
adjustment Thereupon Comptroller
Wright made an examination of the
returns OF the A., b. & A. for The past
few years and discovered tie fact
that lie road had sver made any
state and county returns for Buns
wick docks and wharves.
He promptly called on President
Atkinson for an explanation, and that
official stated he was unaware of the
fact that it had not been returned,
but acknowledged. on investigation,
that the comptrolled was correct.
So the Atlanta, Birmingham and
Atlantic is in for several years OF
back taxes on its Brunswick docks
and wharyes, as soon as an adjust,
ment is reached as to the proper val
uation Comptroller Wright agreed to
accept the valuation fixed ty the city
of Brunswick. But as yet President
Atkinson and the Brunswick author
tiles are widely at variance.
This road has not filed it's returns
for 1911 with the comptroller.
