NO FIGURES ON PHYSICAL WORK Probable Western t'nlon Telrarapn (mpnny Mill Be Made Defendant In Salt for Fallare to Report Gross Reeelpts. (Prom a Staff Correspondent.) L.INOOI.N. Neb.. April . (Speclal.)-The State Board of Assessment will meet Mon dsy to begin the work of valuing tbe rail road property In Nebraska preparatory to Its assessment. Governor Aldrlch, land Commlseloner Cowles, Auditor Barton and Secretary of State Wait compose the board which la now authorised to add to all physical valuation of such roads the value of railroad franchises. The physical valuation department of the railway commission has not yet finished Its labors and In all probability will not be able to submit Ita figures to the board of assessment until later. As this, however, ha snothlng to do with setting values on railroad franchises dealing only with the rolling stock equipment, and other tangi ble property possessed by common carriers, the board will not be retarded In Its labors. It la probable that the Western Union Telegraph company will be made defendant to a suit started later on by the board of aesessment for failure to report gross re ceipts to local assessors or to recover large Penalties for the alleged violation of the revenue law. The Institution of such a suit will He with some county attorney whose assessor will have asked for such action. Similar .proceedings were Instituted at the Instance of a county assessor at the time the railroads of the state refused to psy their taxes and the state later prosecuted them unsuccessfully through every oourt to the United States supreme court. Refaeal to Report Reeelpts. The telegraph company refused to re port the gross receipts on the ground that the Nebraska supreme court had held that said receipts are not taxable. Further, the officers of the company stated that their books were not kept In such a condition as to enable them to give the amount of gross receipts In any one county for a given period of time. The latter statement has met with little credence from the mem. bers of the board of assessment and that contention has lUtle weight In their minds In the first place the county designation Is ...... . -Mun tu ujr iaw. a report is required. nowever. to local assessors of receipt which means a report by towns, a thing which it is asserted the company pays considerable attention, and that its busi ness, town by town. Is carefully preserved and at all times ready for use or refer-, ence by the officers of the company. Unlesa a suit Is started Boon there may be such a piling up of penalties that the company will be sorely the loser should It still maintain its present attitude In the matter. The law provides that the as sessors may add 60 per cent to their esti mate of tbe value of taxable property where tha owner refuses to list It for tax ation and provides further for a fine of 125 per day for each day'a refusal to coma Into the fold with the tax list.
