Across the State Road Will Be Discussed at Meeting in Holdrege May 16 Lincoln May 2 At the meeting of the state hoard of assessment it was decided to put the same valuation up on the railroads of the state as last year the values on personal property having shown in the estimation no in crease since that time Whether or not the levy will be raised on the amount of this property will not be determined until later when property values of the entire state are submit ted and placed in the hands or the board The valuation placed on the four leading roads of the state is as fol lows Chicago Burlington and Quincy on 284221 miles 23S58011 Union Pacific on 108302 miles 15153 4G50S Chicago and Northwestern on 10C537 miles 7457590 and the Chi cago Rock Island and Pacific on 24558 miles 20891SG Will Increase Levy It is understood that the state board will increase the state levy compelling the railroads as well as every other taxpayer to pay greater taxes even though in many cases as with the rail roads the assessed valuation had not been raised This as stated above will not be done however until the board has had a chance to review the assessment figures of the entire state Last year the total levy for state purposes was 5 mills but 1 mill of that amount was levied for a separate purpose and was devoted to the use of the state university The 4 mill levy thus left can be increased under the present law to 5 mills but not more than that amount A bill introduced at the last session of the legislature to raise the maximum levy of the state to 7 mills was defeated in the commit tee of the whole The instructions of the board to the secretary Henry Seymour to make a computation upon the same basis as that of last year of course provides further that any mileage added during the year by reason of new track shall be included in the 1911 valuation Across the State Road Commercial clubs of the state have been invited to send delegates to a convention to be held at Holdrege May 16 for the purpose of discussing ways and means for an state road As at present planned rep resentatives of several of the counties which have already manifested an in terest in the matter say the road will start from Nebraska City run west and north to this city thence to Exe ter Hastings Minden and Holdrege and McCook The survey of the first lap of the road from Nebraska City
