$4,000 for double track. while the
net earnings OF at least one OF them
amounts 10 SlSS.0O0 for that stretch,
the commission. said Senator Wcndcn-
burg, is practicing unjust and UNEQUAL
taxation.
Tho methods were suggested for ar
irving at the proper assessment of

value OF the property as a whole. as
evidenced by the value of the stocks
ana bonds for the preceding fiscal
Year, ana then ascertain the Dropov-
tonat" share according To tho mileage
of road In Virginia. or capitalize the
net earnings al per centum as a
basis for valuation.
