TAXATION FOR TERMINALS
Council Bluffs Commercial Club Takes
Question Up.
LETTERS SENT TO OTHER CITIES
Reaweet Is Made that Candidates far
Legislators Ba riedged ta Vata
far Mease re af This
Kind.
The Commercial club of- Council Bluffs
has Inaugurated a campaign for tha taxa
tion of railroad terminals. Copies of a
letter which was drafted by ths executive
committee are being sent to the mayor,
treasurer and aollcltor of every town or
city In tha stats with a population of too
or more.
The letters present a brief but forceful
statement of ths fairness of terminal taxa
tion, and, while advocating no specific
set, ask that pledges ba obtained from can
didates for tha state legislature to sup
port any meaaure that will give tha cities
and towns of tha stats their just propor
tion of railroad taxes.
The letter in pert la s follows:
I assume in advenes that you are 'thor
oughly familiar with the fact that under
the law tha entire property of each rail
way in this stats la valued, and this total
valuation divided by the number of miles
of main line mlleaga In the state to os
tabllsh the valuation per mile. Each polit
ical subdivision-la sseesslng the property
of such railroad within Its limits, must
make such assessment by multiplying this
value per mile by tha number of miles of
main line mileage of the railway within Its
limits. Thus the cities of the state, tn
vhlch are situated valuable terminals,
yards and other railroad property, cannot
assess such property for tsxatlon, but are
limited to an assessment fixed by multi
plying the valuation per mile by the num
ber of main line mileage within tho city.
By this method a city having ons line of
main line mileage with terminal properties
f the vslue of $1,000,000 Is placed on ths
tame baals for taxing purposes as a coun
try township having one mile of main line
mileage worth $50,000. These extenelve ter
minal properties of the railroads are a
great expense to the cities snd towns, re
quiring extended police and fire protection,
and, in many Instances, occupying Urge
tracts of territory that would otherwise be
subject to a fair valuation and assess
ment for tsxatlon purposes.
In the judgment of our Commercial club,
tha ttme has now srrlved when it is vital
to ths life and prosperity of the various
cities and towns of the state that a more
equitable method of aasessment for taxa
tion ba obtained. In order that this may
be accomplished. It will be necessary that
each town snd city of this state, which Is
being deprived of its legitimate revenues
by this unfair method of valuation, co
operate with tha other cities and towns
in an effort to secure relief.
In order to accomplish this purpose, will
you not arrange to secure an unqualified
? ledge from your candidates of both parties
or the Iowa senate and house of repre
sentatives to support and vote for a meas
ure which . will - allow terminals, yards,
buildings and other property of railway
00m panics to be valued for taxing pur
poses within tha limits of tha political sub
divisions within which they are situated.
We do not, at this time, desire to advo
cate any specific act, but to enlist your co
operation In securing a membership in
tha Iowa legislature which will support any
measure which will deal fairly with the
cities and towns of tha stata In this matter
of terminal taxation.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DE8 MOINES, la., April 24. (Special.)
Tha Burlington railroad defied the stats of
Iowa In issuing passes snd In tha list of
panes Issued during the last six months
of 1907 admits breaking the anti-pass lsw.
The law requires that roads shall file with
the executive council a list of all passes
Issued. The law prohibits Issuing passes
to attorneys and doctors unless they are
giving all or the principal part of their
time to tha service of ths road as attorney
or doctor. Tho Burlington is the' first of
the large roads to file tha list of passes
issued. It gives a long list of attorneys,
giving one In nearly every county, and
also doctors. One pass ' was Issued to
Charles Lock of Keokuk, being a trip
ticket, and tha reason given Is "witness."
It Is presumed he wss a witness for tha
road in soma suit Among ths names of
persons to whom were Issued annual or
trip passes ts George B. Btewart of Fort
Madison, assistant United States district
attorney for sou then. Iowa; R. H. Spence
of Mt Ayr, an attorney and one time chair
man of the republican state central com
mittee. Both Btewart and Spence are put
down as attorneys and this is given ss the
reason for issuing the pass. One pass was
Irsued to E. H. Hunter of Des Moines,
who is put down as "special agent." Hun
ter is a railroad lobbyist. '
A suit Is pending against tho Illinois Cen
tral for a violation of the anti-pass law.
The arrangement for testing ths law was
made In advance in order to get a de
cision of the court and the Illinois Central,
it Is understood, has not broken the letter
of the law except In this one sgreed In
stance. The Burlington gives a list of
thirty lawyers and as many doctors who
are known not to give all or the principal
part of their time to ths employment of
the railroad as the law requires.
Attorney General Byers wss unable to
say' today just how he would proceed In
the esse of the violations by ths Burling
ton, but said ho would take the matter up
st once and Intimated that something would
be dons to take ths violations Into court
