It waa a three-cornered fusillade, In which City Attorney Connell, Hon. An drew J. Poppleton and E. Rosewater par ticipated. The debate waa reported and published at length In The Omaha Bee of December 0, 188. At that time Mr. Pop pleton was the general attorney of the Union Paclfle railroad and waa a member of the charter committee of fifteen which framed the charter for Omaha aa a city of the metropolitan class. It was at this time that Mr. Connell prepared and fought for his viaduct provisions and for equitable railroad taxation. The arguments made by Mr. Connell and Mr. Rosewater are sub stantially those now being urged. What oc curred presents a case of history repeat ing Itself, and Is an Illustration of the proposition that no question is settled until It Is settled right.

Thera wss a (air attendance at the meet- Ins; of the charter amendment committee yesterday afternoon. The first question dis cussed waa that of railway taxation. Aa he bad preTlousIjr announced his Intention to do. City Attorney Connell reported his amendment providing that the property at railway and telegraph companies be as sessed for taxation the same as that of all other eorporattona and Individuals. Mr. Poppleton objected. He held that the amendment waa to the contempt of the committee had no business there. Mr. Connell aald that he had followed right !n the line of other changes offered. It the committee objected. It was simply a matter of striking cut a very few lines from the pages already prepared with amendments, which In nine esses out of ten have been approved by the committee. Mr. Poppleton sa'.d he did not like to see the amendment go In, Mr. Connell ssld It was to subject tho railway and the telegraph property to the same tax precisely aa the property of other corporations and Individuals, on the theory that there Is no reason why. these com panies should not pay for maintaining the police department, fire department and other necessary expensea of the city, pre cisely the same as Individuals were re quired to do, and the same as the horse ra 1- way, telephone company and every other corporation In the city, except the rail ways and telegraph companies, were re quired to do. Mr. Poppleton bad remarked on another occasion that he did not propose to engsge In any side controversy or curb atone debate. The speaker advocated the amendment on the theory that It was right. and can be defended upon principles of right, and cannot be successfully opposed or resisted on any theory of fair and Just taxation. The question bad arisen In court, where Mr. Poppleton filed a petition ask ing for an Injunction. The speaker had asked him the question: If the charter waa amended so aa to give a clear right to make thla tax In thla way, would It not be constitutional, and in your Judgment would it be In conflict with the present law? His recollection waa that Mr. Pop pleton aald It would be constitutional and not In conflict with the present law. Mr. Poppleton: I did not say any such thing. I said If It waa put In the charter It would repeal the general revenue law to the extent It would affect the general rev enue. StralaeA Coastravllea of Law, Mr. Connell: The general law waa not In tended to cover this, aad It la only by a strained' and forced construction of It by the railroad people that It Is allowed to cover railroad property for municipal pur poses. The law la evidently framed with respect to county and state taxea. Mr. Chaae: How la It with other cities? Mr, Connell: I am not familiar with other cities. The district court of Toledo, O., has Juat rendered a decision In the mat ter of railroad taxes. The Wabaah road. In order to eacape the levy, baa hitherto had It assessed In the lump and prorated by counties. But the treasurer of the city assessed the depots and grounda apart from the proate, and the court baa now sua talned the assessment as a Just one. It Is right, ian't It? I dm honest in my con vie tton that railroad property ought to be taxed the aame aa the property of citizens Mr. Poppleton moved the adoption of the aection as It waa agreed upon and recom mended by the committee. Seconded by Mr. Chase. Mr. Rosewater: Mr. Chairman, when I waa here last, it waa my Intention not to take part In the deliberations of this com mittee again. . To me personally thla com mittee aeemed Inclined not to take a broad and liberal view of the very important queattona which are Involved In framing this charter. It appeara to me that Its action In aome reapecta was so narrow gauged and ao utterly Incompatible with he great duty It baa to perform aa repre sentative of the taxpayers. I thought per haps It would be best at once to cut abort and say nothing. Because after all the responsibility Is without legislative delega tlon, who could readily underatsnd that hat thla committee had done waa largely id Its private Interest, and not In the In te'eat of the people who have aent the delegation to repreaent Douglas county In the legislature. But I have concluded once more to take part In your deliberations, be csuse I waa notified that there would be very Important matter discussed today. If I could have my own way, I would have thla committee take a wider latitude on the whole question of city taxation by aim ply Inserting four lines: That the prop erty of all corporations shall be taxed for municipal purpcaea Juat the aame aa the property of individuals. Mr. Connell: There are only four lines as It is. All except railroad and telegraph companies are taxed. Oar-Mded aad I ajast arateai. Mr. Rosewater: I do not aee any neces sity for even admitting for one moment that there la auch a great injustice and such a one-sided system of lawmaking aa the exemption of any claaa of property from a proper share of taxea. I have talked with one of the circuit Judges of the United States on this question, and It the railroad people are determined to staod stubbornly In the wsy of their own Interest and reaiat (air dealing, thla queatlon la going to be brought up In the courts. I jay that the time will come when tbla whole revenue law will be knocked to pieces aa a fraud. It la a mocktry of Justice which will not be permitted. There Is nothing la the constitution of this elate which authorises It. and I have the highest legal authority for aaylng that If a teat caae was made la the federal courts, not la Nebraska, but la Iowa er Ohio, b some outside property owner, cur whole tax system would have to be revised. The fact is this, the consti tution of the state of Nebraska says that the property of all eorporattona shall be taxed Just the same as that of individuals not only corporation property, but their franchises. Now In the city of Omaha there are today over 1,000 lots exempted from city taxes. We published two years ago 669 lota that have never been assessed or levied upon. Since that time the Burl ington railroad has built roada which will certainly Increase the number to over .000. I believe that fully 10 per cent ot the entire property of thla city yields no tax tor municipal purposes. If there Is any man that can atanl here and defend auch tax-shirking I want to look at him. Mr. Poppleton: I want to say that as sertions like these that are made week after week and year after year are not true In fact. The place we want to meet thla question la In the courts. Mr. Rosewater: The court has not had a chance to paas on this question. A warm cross-fire ot words took place here, which the reporter waa unable to record. Aa to the Conrts. Mr. Poppleton: I rise to a question ot order. Slsnder of the courts Is out of place before thla committee. I hope that Mr. Rosewater's atenographer will take what I say as well aa what Mr. Rosewater says. I rise to a point of order, i n.s com mittee should not listen to abuse of the stste and federal courts. Mr. Rosewater: I have made no reference to the state courta. I simply speak of a test In the federal courts of some other state, where the rights of the people are respected and protected. I am not practicing before the courts of Nebraska and have no favors to ask of federal Judges. I am not afraid of this court of justice. I think day of reckoning will come before long. We are simply asking that the 1.000 lota located In the city of Omaha owned by rail road companlea shall pay their juat pro portion of the clty'a taxes. The sewerage ot the. city drains of these lots; the police ot this city protect the corporate property against raids; the fire department that we maintain at public expenses protects their buildings. The men who represent the rail roads enjoy all the privileges of our city; they have the advantage ot our pub ic schools maintained at public expense. Why not tax those lots for municipal purposes? It Is stated here that I am not telling tho truth about these untaxed lots. I havo published a description of the lots as taken from the county records. If these records are Incorrect I am not to blame. Mr. Poppleton: They are taxed for all that, but you do not know the law. Mr. Rosewater: I think I know as much about the revenue law as Mr. Poppleton. Tho law provldea that the assessment ot all railroad property shall be made by three state officers aa a board of equalization. Mr. Poppleton: This Is a mistake. This law provldea only for railways that pass through more than one county. Mr. Rosewater: All right; that does not make any difference.. Mr. Poppleton: It makes all the differ ence In the world. If you build a railroad wholly within the limits of a county It Is assessed by the county assessors. Railroad la Oil County. Mr. Connell: Do you know of any rail road ao built? Mr. Poppleton: The Belt line railroad. Mr. Rosewater: I will ask you another question: la the property ot the rallroada of thla state assessed the same as other property? Mr. Poppleton: It la assessed In accord ance with the law of the atate. Mr. Roae water: Is that law in accord ance with the constitution? Mr. Poppleton: Why don't aome of your agrarian friends help you to change the law? county and give to other counties. I do not think It la quite right and fair so far aa Douglaa county Is concerned, but my position la simply thus, that the real object and purpose of that law waa to distribute the tax on railroads for county and stats purposes and was not for the purpose ot In any way affecting municipal taxation. Tou may examine the law which Is to be found on psge 407 ot the Complied Statutes and you will find that It prescribes In the first place that a railroad company, by Ita auperlntendent or president, shall return to the state board the entire prop erty belonging to the railroad company Ita right-of-way, depot grounds, etc. It then becomes the duty of the state board to make a pro rata division of that amount to the several counties, and it Is made the duty of the auditor to certify to the county clerks of the several counties In which the property of the railroad la situated, his assessment per mile, specify ing the number of miles and amount In each of auch counties. Now don't you see that It Is evidently the purpoae and Inten tion of that law to relate only to county and state- taxes? It It wss the Intention to apply to city taxes then would not the law have gone little further and required the state auditor to certify to the city clerka the amount? Mr. Toppleton: If that Is the law, how does it come that you, as city attorney, have never raised that point? Mr. Connell: I have raised that point In the courta. Mr. Poppleton: Not till last Saturday. Mr. Connell: And aa a matter of fact that was not a case which fully Illustrates the point, for the reason that the city did adopt Mr. Toppleton's theory for valuation and did make an assessment according to hla theory. I have frankly admitted It would amount to double taxation. Now t aay that you can not tor city purposes make a double tax upon the railroad prop rty. If you adopt his system, which gives merely a nominal valuation, then It Is plain and apparent that you cannot assess It upon the valuation that you pay. We ought to meet this square In the face, and If It Is right that the Vnlon Pacific Railway company should pay nothing upon Its prop erty according to the same basis aa the Belt line is taxed, you should say so. TABLE AND KITCHEN Mr. Connell: I would like to hear Mr. Poppleton on thla queatlon, and give any reason why this proposed change la not Juat and right. I would like ta have him explain why the property ot the Union Pacific railway should be taxed on a differ ent baala than property of the Belt line railroad ia taxed. In other words, why ought not all the corporations to be taxed alike? Mr. Poppleton: I know perfectly well the object of these gentlemen In coming here with their stenographer. They are welcome to all there la In It, but I think that when they do ao they put themselves outside the pale ot the right to ask queatlona and to aak for any exposition of this subject. I said when thla matter was up before that I would not discuss this question except In court. I am aot going to waste my time to make a public record for myself. I came to aaslst In framing a charter that would be adopted. Mr. Connell: If your railroad company la already paying city taxea upon a full and fair valuation of all railroad property, why do you object to thla additional clauae. Mr. Poppleton: Becauae It almply breaks up another system of assessment and the very object la to prevent Ita having a fair distribution. They want to cut It off and tax It aa a aeparate thing when It should be distributed over the line. 1 Mr. Connell: Does that railroad property within the city limits pay taxea aa other property on Ita valuation? Mr. Poppleton: Yes, sir. Talks of a "Whim." Mr. Connell: Then why do you oppose the amendment? Mr. Poppleton: I do not propose to have a law passed to meet your whim. It would open the door to unjust valuation. You want to "sock" It to us.. Mr. Connell: I have never used any auch term. I want you to pay juat taxea. Mr. Poppleton: We are paying just taxea. What do these gentlemen want? They do not want only that this property be as sessed. They want to levy a local tax upon thla property. Mr. Rosewater: Are we not all subjected to locsl taxation? Mr. Poppleton: No, air; If that ia idea you need a little education. Mr. Connell: Acting on this amendment will not overturn any previous action. Thla aection waa left over for after considera tion, and I give Mr. Poppleton full and fair notice that I would prepare an amend ment solely on the ground ot Justice and right, which would require that a railroad company should pay taxea precisely the aame aa all other corporations, and in dividuals, and not for the purpoae of "sock ing it to tne railroad company, aa Mr. Poppleton has stated. Mr. Poppleton has maae reference to the atate law which la likely to mislead. He has referred alao to the previoua action of the committee that It would have a tendency to revolution ise our present system. A revolutionary change waa made several yeara ago whereby tne property or a railroad company situ ates in uougiaa county waa put Into common pot with the property In all other eountiea of the atate. and then a pro rata division waa made by the State Board of B.quaiisauoa.
