TUB anti-monopolist value * tha rail
roads at $70,000 per mile for taxation
purposes , but when it comes to com
puting the capital upon which the
railroads declare dividends , the anti-
monopolist declares that the rail
roads are worth only about | 1C,000
per mile. Omaha Ittpublitan.
The Union Pacific quote * the cost
of iti road and equipments to the U.
S. commissioner of railway ! at $115-
per mile , but the road la only valued
for taxation purposes at $11,000 per
mile. How are vo to reconcile that
enormous discrepancy ? But since ono
conundrum does not answer another
conundrum , wo will explain the dif-
feropco between the legitimate divi
dends of railroads as gauged by their
cost and the value of these roads for
the purpose of taxation.
No anti-monopolist in this or any
other utato desires to deprive the capitalist -
italist who has made an honest in
vestment in railroads from a reasonable -
able income on the capital invested ,
The moro roadbed and rails of a rail
road located in a prairlo state like
Nebraska , would perhaps not cost moro
than § 10,000 per mile Possibly it
can be built for a good deal loss if the
right of way U donated through the
public domain , aa was the case with
most of the railroads wei
of tbo Mlsslislppi. In addition
to the outlay for road bed and ra It ,
it Is nccccsiary that every railroad
should bo equlppoi with rolling stock
to raovo freight and passengers , and
propar accomodttlons for man and
boast as well as for freight at their
stations. All these things together
make up the actual ooit of a railroad.
Upon thin outlay , which should be
the basis of its stock , the patrons of
the roadj would cheerfully pay t
reasonable dividend , in the shape of
tolls baied npon the cost
of operating expenses , repairs , oto
Bat no railroai this eido of the
Missouri has over been capitalized on
an honest basis. Ihg builders , as a
ruto , have divided among thomscives
the princely subsidies in lands and
bonds which the people voted and do *
uatod toward their enterprise , and
they have created fictitious capital by
credit mobilcr construction companies ,
and thus frequently moro than double
the cost. On the top of nil this they
have piled a bonded debt that usually
represents the actual cost of the road-
bid nnd rails.
As a result of such legallr.ad swind
ling the managers of the roads exact
from their patrons enormous and op
prcsslvo tolls. They tax the country
not merely for the actual coat of sor-
vlco and. reasonable dividend ? upon
the capital invested , but the people
are also taxed to moot the interest
upon mortgage debts and upon ficti
tious capital in watered stock and in
stooko that represent branch roada
built out of the surplus Inoomo from
the main linco. Now , then , the value
for taxation of the railroads in this
state can not bo confined to what
a sheriff would realize on a forced
sale for rolls , road bed acd rolling
stock as dead material and real estate ,
but it should represent the market
value of the railroad , as it is gauged
by exports who know ita condition nd
the resources upon which it relies for
its vast income. It IB this ability to
tax the country at will and force n
tribute from millions of producers
that makes the franchise of the Pa
cific roads BO valuable , and when this
franohleo is properly assessed the
trunk roada will cotno up to the stand
ard of $70,000 per mile.

The Modern Mooe ot Uajcmff Money !
from thi Uttrolt fi * Free.
The system of railway financiering
that 1s now most in vogue la a system
of speculation pure and simply. First ,
a lot of people go to work and get
rights of way , generally for nothing ,
and then Ret all the other franchises
and donation * that the people along
Ibo proposed route are willing to give
for the sake of having the road.
That Is so much clear profit to the
proprietors. Then the route is sur
veyed , and , if possible , money is bor
rowed to build the road , [ on bonds
sold at 15 to 25 per cant discount.
Stock equivalent to the amounl
of bonds is issued and dis
tributed around to men who are "on
the ground floor , " but who' , or most
of whom , do not risk one dollar In
the enterprise. Whatever this stock
may bo worth and if the road is
built it can hardly fall to bo worth
something ia clear gain , Then the
road is mortgaged for its equipment ,
tmd if the original amount borrowed
is not sufficient to carry out all the
schemes and support all the oitrava-
ganoo of the projectors , a second , or
oven a third mortgage ia issued. So
by the time the road la finished and
equipped it is bonded $30,000 , 10-
000 or even $50,000 per mlle , and
( ally half this debt , even moro aorco-
t mes , represents the gain of the fa
vored few who are Inside of the pro-
foot , bnt who are careful to got outside
