with the murder of George E. Marsh,

State Senator E. c. Champion this
afternoon introduced in the senate a
bill, having for its object the con-
ferrng of additional power upon the
state board of equalization and upon
the boards of county commissioners

Of property listed for taxation. The
bill gives the state board OF equaliza'
ton the right to fix the value of prop
critics Of railroads, express companies,
sleeping cars, telephone. telegraph
lines and Of livestock in the state for
the purposes Of taxation.

board issued an order calling upon
the corporations coming under its
jurisdiction, to report their property
at full value for the purpose of as
sessment. Under the bill by Mr..
Champion, the board is empowered to
issue subpoenaes and administer
oaths to witnesses and to take all leg
al steps to ascertain the real value Of
properties before 1t.
In the event of failure to meet its
requirements on the part Of any con-
Germ operating in the state, the board
may ascertain the value Of the prop
erty for itself.
The bill by Mr. Champion is in sub
stance, as follows:
