An other interurban out of Omaha is valued for taxation lower than itself, the company asserts. The company was represented by R. A.' Leussler, general manager, and W. G. Nichol son, secretary. ' i In his argument Mr. Pollard de clared that the Burlington is assessed and taxed in Nebraska on the basis of $42,800 per mile as compared, with a depreciated physical valuation of $36,673 reported about sixyears ago by the engineering department of the commission. The. commissi on-er claimed that other property is as sessed on an average at not more than 60 per cent of its real value.- Farm lands and 'others real estate is rated especially low, he said. Mr. Pollard pointed out that it was not fair to consider only the pros perous years of 1916 and 1917 and he quoted figures on earnings as far back as 1908. He made reference to govern ment taxes amounting to $3,200,000; which the road paid last year, and de clared that Nebraska stands its pro portion of that sum.
