Special to Times Republican,.
Des Moines, July 15.-Practically no
changes in railroad assessments will be
made by the state executive council
this year and the property valuations
Of these roads will remain about the
same as they were last year. The same
is true of telephone and telegraph COM
panies and express companies doing
business in this state.
In 1915 the railroads paid taxes in
Iowa to the amount of $3,654.122, and in
1914. $3,596.436. Interurban railroads
operating in this state last year paid in
taxes $103,584, and in 1914, $101,7A6.
The total assessed value of express
companies in 1914 amounted to 1901, 400,
and of telegraph companies, $749.121.
The total assessment Of commercial
telephone companies, including ex-
changes, farm and toll telephones in
1914 was s3,195,915.
Land Assessments Next Week.
The executive council will take up
the matter of land assessments and
other property next week. There will
be no changes in the valuations placed
on land over those as adjusted two
years ago. This year nine counties re-
ported below what their land was adj
justed at last year and these will be
raised to accord with last years valua-
lions.
Representatives OF some Of the larger
railroad companies appeared before the
council this past week and declared
that there would be no serious objec-
ton to the assessments as made last
year, altho in some instances 1T was
claimed that the properties were valued
too highly. The express companies and
telephone lines had representa- tives be-
fore the council. They were there to
oppose any increase in the valuation of
their properties but offered no serious
objections to the assessments as made
last year.

Special to Times Republican.
Denison, July 15.-William Luney
and the heirs Of Samuel Luney have
won their case in the district court in
which they resisted the assessment Of
the state inheritance tax on landed
property which they came into pos
session of thru Samuel B. Smythe, now
deceased. On the death of Mr.. Smythe
the clerk Of courts reported to the
state treasurer that the 5 per cent in
heritance tax was collectible on some
200 acres Of fine land adjoining Deni-
son on the east. The payment was
resisted on the ground that the land
had been conveyed to the plaintiffs
some time previous to the death of
Mr.. Smythe and that they had entered
on the possession. Judge Albert held
this week that the land is not subject
to the payment of the Inheritance tax
and that the proceedings Of the board
of supervisors is void. there being no
jurisdiction for theiboard to make the
same.
