A comparison of Nehrasl < a railroads with those of l\IU\SaChllllelts would he senseless , lIecause in Nebraska - raska there are r,3.31 lIIi1es of railroad to lieI've eaoh ItrUOO people , while in Massachusetts there arc but ! Y 7.55 for the same numher ; or , with New Jersey , which r has 2fJ.fJY miles of railroad to eaeh 100 square miles of territory , while Nehraslm has \Jut 7.4. However , In the comparisolls we will select sections of railroad in Nehraslm which have a lal' ! e llltsiness , and we will pick out some eastern roads that handleli approximately - mately the lilC character atlll volume of husiness and malC thc comparison with those roalls. showing the taxes that they pay and the tax that is paid here. It will lJe found that in those instances the roads of Nehraslm pay relatively hig-hoc taxoe than they should he called UpUII to do. 'l'he critics who makc a comparison of the tax per mile charg-ed in the District of Columhia , with that chargell un w'sterll railroads , evidently intelld to de- cei'c , from the fact that the city of Washing ton has outg-rowlI the Distric't of Columhia , and the 52 milea of railroad which are reported in that distrIct are practically all city property. A comparison of'a Ne - raska railroad with lhe New York Central , a four- track railroad with S57OOOOOU worth of equipmcnt alolll' , would not he fair , lJut we will give the people of Nehraska the details of taxatioll in these other sta tcs , for the purpose of letting' them mllke their own cOllclusiolls and judg-e whether the railroads in Neb- raslm arc pa.ring their just share of tax , when cow- pared with other railroads. There IlI'C but II. few states in the Union in which the raill'lJlttls pay tr.A per eent of the taxes paid while ill the tCl'ritOl'Y west of the Mississippi the rt\illrou.dH ill Ncbl'a ICIl pay more per mile thau sixteen of .hI ! other statl's.
