Milwaukee Protest of So Avail.
Today the State Board of Equalization 1
granted a special hearing to Tax Commis
sioner Dudley of the Milwaukee, who pro
tested against the assessment of Its track
age facilities at Omaha on the ground that
the statute falls to grant that power to
the board. At the conclusion of his argu
ment he was Informed by Governor Mickey
that the road comes Into the state to get
Its business and that It should be taxed
In fairness to the other railways and the
taxpayers. Dudley filed a statement un
der protest and the members of the board
intimated that the assessment would be
based on the rolling stock used on the
6.13 miles over which the road operates In
Nebraska.
Dudley took the ground that the action of
the board in assessing a road with bare
trackage rights would revolutionize the
taxation of railways In the state. He In
sisted that If the board considered trackage
the same as mileage owned and operated
within the meaning of the statute It would
be required to allow all the Nebraska roads
to report their trackage rights in other
states, thus lessening the proportion of the
total value to be credited to this state.
Another argument on which he relied was
the claim that the legislature failed to
provide any method for the distribution of
the assessment where a road has mere
trackage rights, since the basis of distri
bution fixed bf the statutes is the mileage
of main line track in each district. He
contended that trackage was a dlflerent
thing and that there is no way In whion
the distribution can be effected. He con
tended that the precedents established by
past boards of equalization were to the
same effect and Insisted that the assess
ment, if made, could not be used.
Secretary of State Galusha told him that
the legislature had left the assessment of
railways to the Judgment of the board and
that Judgment would be used with reference
to these licensing lines.
Dudley said that according to the board's
Interpretation of the law the construction
of a mile of the Milwaukee line across the
river In the northern part of tha state
' would necessitate the transference of the
I assessment of the trackage rights at Omaha
I to the county In which the mile of track
was built. Because under such an Interpre
I tation of the law the property would be
taxed In a different county from that In
which It was located, he claimed the board
would have no right to make the assess
ment. Attorney General Brown, who was pres
ent, said that the statute meant railway
service to be used as the basis. Governor
Mickey said:
"You come Into this state and get busi
ness on which you make a profit and there
fore you ought to pay taxes on your prop
erty In the state.
"You do not want your road to be con
sidered a pirate, do you?" queried Treasurer
Mortensen.
At the close of the hearing the board In
dicated that the ro'llng stock used In Ne
braska would be determined by taking the
ratio of trackage In tho state to the entire
mileage of the system.
Defends Biennial Flection Mutate.
TodaV Attorney General Brown filed a
brief In the supreme court sustaining the
biennial election law on the ground that
the legislature had the discretion to con
strue the constitution in the Interest of
the public, and he also raises the novel
contention, regarded as the main hope of
the friends of the statute, that the pro
vision of the constitution relating to elec
tions Is not mandatory, but only directory,
to he disregarded If the legislature In Its
Judgment saw fit to do so. It is contended
that tho main purpose of the convention
was to provide for the forthcoming election
and not to set up a fixed rule for the fu
ture. Still another contention Is that the
courts are bound to allow the legislature
to construe the political sections of the
conn I; ut Ion.
The brief filed today Is the Joint work of
ihe attorney gereral. F. I. Fors. I.ysle Ab
rott, Roscoo Pound and J. J. Sullivan, whj
were called Into consultation. During the
lutX few days the attorney general has
n odif.ed his views to a considerable ex
tent. When tho litigation waa inatituttd
he was convinced that the statute was In
direct violation of the plain provision of
the constitution, but his work on the brief
has led him to believe that the court can
sustain the act without doing violence to
the precedents.
As to the claim that the bill would extend
the official terms of present Incumbents of
office, the brief sets out that with the ex
ception of the regents and Judges the offices
are created by the legislature and there
fore subject to Its control. With refer
ence to the constitutional offices. It Is urged
that they would be simply holding over un
til their successors were chosen, the word
term being understood as covering rot
only the eix-year period, but the time In
tervening until a euccessor Is named. As
to the Judges, It la claimed that the mean
ing of the constitution was that the legis
lature should provide for their election at
the expiration of the terms of those first
chosen, whether it came In an odd or an
even-numbered year. As to the regents.
It Is argued that the constitution com
manded that they be chosen at the first
election following the adoption of the con
stitution, which took place In 1875. In this
respect It la claimed that the biennial law
Is a return to the Ideas of the constitu
tion framers, who had not Intended to
have the regents elected when the con
stitution which provided for their election
waa submitted to the electors.
