Another Line 5f Comparisons. (Issued Under Authority of the Railroads of Nebraska ) In our former articles we have made comparisons showitiff the relative afcscRsraent of railroad property with other property in the state of Nebraska. We will continue to make these comparisons. They will show that the railroads have paid proportionately more taxes than any other interest in the state, but to complete the line of comparison, it will be necessary for tis to show that the railroads of Nebraska have paid as much or more than other roads in the Trans Mississippi states. No mati-r how taxes against railroads are col lected, whu.-er by excise or direct taxation, the gen eral average shows practically the same. With the railroads it is immaterial to them what the assessed valuation of their property should be ao lon as they are not required to pay an undue amount per mile to meet the requirements of taxation, and not in unfair proportion to other property. From the Inter-State Commerce Commission re port for l'JOO, we find that there were 83,175 miles of railroad lyinjf west of the M:ssissippi river. These railroads paid $M,3U. 109 for taxes, which makes an average of $171.45 per mile. These fiffurea include every state and territory west of the Mississippi river, excepting the Indian Territory, where the tax on railroads, beinff but 10.H6, is so low that we do not include the sum in our estimates. If wc did it would make the foregoing amount per mile a few dollars less. In this territory the average net earning of all the railroads amounted to 12,784 per mile. In determining the value of the railroad property there ate several essentials that must be considered. First: The volume of business that can be given a railroad. Second: The difficulties of operation. Third: The tariffs allowed to be charged. These three features must he taken into conjunc tion in any estimate that should be made regarding the value of the railroad property as an investment. A comparison of the railroads of Nebraska with thoae of New York, Pennsylvania and Maryland would be misleading unless these elements were taken into consideration. In these states the rail roads were furnlahed tonnage that enabled them to handle 1,9110,579 tot of freight and 202,902 passengers for each mile of railroad, while In this Traus-Misaisa-itipi country, the railroads were furnished but 378,300 tons per mile and but 49,814 passengers as reported in l'JDO. A comparison of Nebraska railroads with thosof Massachusetts would be senseless, because in Neb raska there are 53.31 milcja railroad to serve each 10,000 people, while in MaxV ls there are but 7.SS for the same number; or, wsx Iw Jersey4 which has 29.'J9 miles of railroad to eachWisfiiire miles of territory, while Nebraska has but 7. jever, in the comparisons we will select sectionsNnrajlroad in Nebraska which have a larije business, and we will pick out some eastern roads that handles approxi mately the like character and volume of business and make the comparison with those roads, showing the taxes that they pay and the tax that is pair! here. It will be found that in those instances the roads of Nebraska pay relatively higher taxes than they should be called upon to do. The critics who make a comparison of the tax per mile charged in the District of Columbia, with that charged on western railroada, evidently intend to de ceive, from the fact that the city of Washington has outgrown the District of Columbia, and the 52 miles of railroad which are reported in that district are practically all city property. A comparison of a Neb raska railroad with the New York Central, a four track railroad with $57,000,000 worth of equipment alone, would not be fair, but we will give the people of Nebraska the details of taxation in these other states, for the purpose of letting them make their own conclusions and judge whether the railroads in Neb raska are paying their just share of tax, when com pared with other railroads. There are but a few states in the Union In which the railroads pay 15 4 per cent of the taxes paid while in the territory west of the Mississippi the railroads in Nebraska pay more per mile than si xteao of the other states. Three mining states oblige the rail roads to pay more than they do in Nebraska, hut it is a well known fact that tax levies in minlDg counties are much higher than in aor other localities in the United States. Our ststeinent will show what the railroads pay to each county the average rate per mile, and from these you will be able to judge whether the people are being treated fairly In thia mutter. There is no neceaeitjr to coii'-eal anything on the part of the railroads, as they have borne and bear their just share of the Uses. L.
