REPLIES TO RAILROAD MEN
Lawyer Mclntovh Continue tta Argument
on Railnad Taxation.
SAYS CITY ASSESSMENT IS DISTINCT
pa. .ace af Koim Roll 171, He Ation,
Will Not Aflert AMrumrnta (or
Stale, oanty and Reboot
Dlatrlet Tain.
J. H. Mcintosh, after reading the state
ment published by the tat representative
of the railroads yesterday morning aaid:
"The rallroadii. In replying to my article
on H. R. 11, published In the Omaha pa
pera Tueaday, keep on dodging the Issue
ralaed by thla bill Juki aa they want to
keep on dodging their city taxea.
"They talk about state, county and school
railroad taxes, which bare nothing to do
with thla hill, and which thla bill does not
affect. Sections 3! and 40 of the revenue
law require the State Board of Equaliza
tion to value all railroad property In the
atate for alate, county and achool purposes.
H. H. 171 does not t,ouch or affect sections
19 and 40 of the revenue law. After thla
bill is passed the State Board of Equaliza
tion will value all railroad property within
the atate for atate, county and school pur
poe.es, Just aa It did before It was passed.
The atate, county anC a-hool district rail
road taxea will be levied, collected and
equal In amount after this bill Is passed.
Just as before. H. R. 171 relates to tnetro
polltaa city railroad taxea and does not re
late to or affect railroad, atate, county and
achool taxea.
"The railroads do not undertake to show
hot H.' R. 171 would deprive the state,
any county or a alngle achool district of one
penny Of 'railroad taxes, but they evade
tbla question and call H. R. 171 'the Omaha
echeme.' Then they say, first, it Is un
lawful because it Is double taxation, and,
aecond, 'Is Impracticable because It under
takes to separate an Inseparable entity.'
. I aball answer these In their order.
Whf Do Railroads Worry f
"As to the claim that It would be un
lawful for tbe same assessor to value rail
road property within cltlea for city taxes
that valuea all other property within the
city for that purpose. If that were 'really
ao If the 'Omaha acheme' were really un
lawful or the railroads thought it waa,
doea anyone believe they would be giving
themselves so much trouble about it? Doea
anyone believe they would think It. neces
sary to offer their checks for the Insertion
of railroad-prepared misrepresentations as
'local or editorial" artlclea in the press of
the state?
"It did not worry them much when the city
assessor of Omaha tbla year, disregarding
the existing discriminating law aa uncon
stitutional, valued railroad property as he
valued other property. The railroads, with
perfect equanimity, stood by without a
lobby, without paid editorials, almost with
out a word of objection, and law this done,
because, believing it to be unlawful, they
knew they could again, aa they had so often
done In the past resort to the federal courts
to shield thorn from the exercise of state
authority. And their suite for thla pur
pose are now pending. So unconstitutional
lawi don't much worry the railroads.
"It Is not proposed to 'withdraw the value
of the terminal properties from tho outside
mileage,' for either atate, county or achool
purposes, or to affect the law taxing rail
roads for atate, county and achool purposes.
Thla bill relates only to metropolitan city
taxes. It has no bearing on atate, county or
school taxes, or upon the law under which
tbey are assessed. By confusing taxea for
city purposea with taxes for state, county
and school purposes the railroads evidently
hop to mislead the legislators. Therefore
there la no analogy between the wheat
Illustration the railroads give and taxing
railroads for city purposes.
Treble Taxation for All.
"In metropolitan cities every taxpayer
pays not only double taxes, but treble taxea,
namely, eute taxea, county and achool taxea
nd city taxea.' These taxes are each levied
by a different authority and for a different
purpose. How property la valued for one of
them doea not affect the way of valuing it
for another. Hence when we ask that the
aame officer that values other city property
for city taxea value also railroad property
within the city tor city taxea we are merely
asking tor them the aame thing that exlsta
for us.
"As to H. R. 171 being Impracti
cable. Suppose it la; then It won't hurt the
railroads. Why ahould they spend money
for false 'local or editorial' Items, and
maintain a powerful lobby at Lincoln at
great roat, to defeat something that Is Im
practicable? But why ahould it be Im
practicable for the aame assessor to value
railroad property for city taxea that values
Other city property for city taxea?
"On the ground that- It Is Impracticable
for the city assessor to value railroad city
property for city taxes, do the railroads
expect to keep on dodging city taxea? If
It la Impracticable, then why leave It with
the atate board? The logic of thla preten
sion Is the first hnneal argument I have aa
yet beard from the railroads; for It means
of course that because It Is Impracticable
for tbe rity assessor to value their property
for city taxea It must be Impracticable for

every one, and therefore, in tbe future as
In the past, railroad property within cltlea
must escape taxation for city purposes.
Iletvreen Railroads and Assessor.
"This bill, however, does not raise the
queitlon ss to how the city assessor shall
value railroad property tor rity taxation,
or what the valuation shall be. The bill
merely clothes the city assessor with au
thority to value It. After the bill becomes
a law, then the question of the method to
be pursued will be up between the rail
roads and the assessor, Juit as It Is now
up between every other city taxpayer and
the assersor. If the city assessor does not
pursue the right method In valuing railroad
property for city taxes, the railroads will
have recourse to the Board of Equalisation, i
Juet aa every other taxpayer has. If the j
Board of Equalization doea not pursue the
right method, the railroads will have re
course to the' courts Just as every other
taxpayer has. And there they, like other
taxpayers, will surely get Justice.
"Why not be fair to tbe railroads and
put them on an equality with other city
taxpayers for purposes of city taxation?
But Is it Impracticable to value railroad
terminals within cities for city taxes?
"It wasn't Impracticable for the railroads
themselves to value them when they were
defeating the maximum freight law in tbe
federal court. Then, without hesitation,
they separated this 'Inseparable entity.'
The I'nion Pacific then valued Ita terminals
In Omaha at $10,000,000 at least, and swore
they 'could not be bought for $15,000,000 If
they were vacant.' This It did to defeat
a stat law, and was successful. There
fore, why t the terminals be valued
for city fate?
"SuppofA terminals here, as In St.
Louis, ha v. '.'& to a Separate Company;
would they bare to go untaxed because it
waa Impracticable to value them? If not,
then what difference does it make in valu
ing the terminal property for city taxea
that the same company owning the termi
nate also owns tracka outside of the city?
"The question, however, of the valuation
the city assessor shall put on railroad
property for city taxea la not now perti
nent. That will come up after this bill be
comes a law. And la there anything in the
conduct of the railroads In looking after
their interests before thin legislature, in
dicating that they may not be able to take
care of themselves before the city as
sessor? Put them on an equality with the
Individual and let them try it."
The Nest Varht Rarea.
It ta pleasing to learn that there win be
another attempt mads by the English people
to recapture the cup thla summer. A new
challenger la being built on secret lines
which la claimed will develop remarkable
speed. The most remarkable family medi
cine today Is the old reliable Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters because It cures when other
remedies have failed. If you are a sufferer
from Insomnia, nervousness, chills, Indi

ALL DENY STORY OF UNION
Employers of Fretajht Handlers Say
Men Were Dlaeharajed for
Good Reasons.
Employers of freight handlers say there
la nothing In tbe report that men have
been discharged by them because of mem
bership in the Freight Handlers' union.
Said C. H. Pickens of the Faxton ft
Gallagher company:
"The men we discharged were let out
for reasons entirely different from that
assigned by members of the union. We
did not know that they were members of
the organisation and have made no dis
tinction between those who are in the
union and those who are not." ,
w. 8. Wright of the Wrlght-Wilhelmy
company said: '
"The man who waa discharged from our
employ, and there was only one, waa let
out by the foreman for personal reasona.
The man had been In the employ of the
house. before and had quit when his serv
lces"were needed, and now when there la
a comparatively dull time he waa dis
charged, his servlcea being no longer needed
and the foreman feeling that. In view of his
prevloua record, the house waa under no
obligation to keep him, only to have him
throw up his Job at a busy time."
The Lee-Glass-Andreesen company aaid
that when the man was discharged by them
It waa not known thst ha waa a memhor
of the union and that the firm had no In
tention of discriminating.
Another Jobber aaid: "While the ten
dency of tbe age la to organisation, and a
man working for $1.50 a day la not to be
envied nor to be blamed If he aeeks to Im
prove his condition, aa large employers of
this, class of labor we must resist any at
tempt on the part of the men to apectfy
the hours at which they will work. We
do not care so much for the price, but must
be able to use men Sundays and holidays."
N. J. Weller, for fourteen years In the
employ of the Paxton-Oallagber company!
as a freight handler and In other rapaci
ties, takea exception to the printed state
ment of C. II. Pickens, representing that
company, aa to the cause of the recent dis
charge of the men. and insists that In his
rate at least it waa because of affiliation
with the union. Mr. Weller aays:
"Mr. Pickens slatea that the men were
let out for reasons entirely different from
that assigned by members of the union.
In contradiction of this, I am willing to
take my oath that Foreman James T.
!.ee ssld to me ani to Thomas Jennings
Faturday evening, when be discharged us;
'It Is no use for you men to try to deny It.
I know the name of every, man who at
tended that meeting Thursday night. I
know that you two were prime movers and
I am going to let yos bo) h out.' "
