that Lake county has a greater inter
est in securing an equitable share of
the taxes from the railroads than any
other county in the state
An interesting feature of the in
vestigation was the statement by Sims
that the value of the entire line of a
railroad is divided up by its mileage.
and that Lake county gets as much per
mile out of the railroads as Cook coun-
ty, Illinois.
