Lisoos, Febroary 26.—As I telegraphed, eenate file No. 40 was votei to s third reading Frday evening, It came up for passage Sut- uedsy momicg. Qulte an intersst ing debste precesded the third resd- ing of the Il Mr. Fredoricks, of Howard had “igoted in 1879 fur the tax onm niil roade to be spread vu' over the whole line.” This was necessary for the operation of the whole rozd. The machine shops were maiutained for the whele road. Every couitry member should vote pro-rata. Mr. Howe was glad to see the niom: bers all come to the same conclusion on this bill. They had given the clties all they asked for. Mr. Whedon esid one were to compare these bills he would see that the counties get more tuix: by local taxation than through a sta board of equalization. ‘“The coonties willnot_lose snything they get now. If we don’t pass this we don't get anything.” . Ransom said senats file No. 40 wes & very importaut messare to the people. Evidence of this was given 1n toe fuct that toe sailrosds had wor: - ed 6o hard to defeat i' and other bills on the subject. Mr. McShaue wanted to show th se opposed to the bill the disadvantage the interior counties have under the law of 1879. T depots are sppals- ea by the state board of equalization The appraisement is made wpoi the depot and grounds and road bed. Depota that ccst iwo and three b sand dollars in the country; the in Omaha which cost $100,000, au the one at Lincoln which cost 815,000 were appraised by the state beard st $100 esch. What beneiit do intarior i coet two or thres thousand dollars per scte whick are sppraised s twenty dollars per acre. Me. Fraoee, of Cumiog—Whoss fanit is it—sarely it is not the fault of the law. Mr. MoShane—The state boas know uothing of the valae of these dc- pot gronnde. They take the word of the railroad mansgers for it, and tale it for granted that the railroadsraturn to them to true valustions. Now un. der this senate filo No. 40, those depot grounds that are outside of the right of way are assesed by the procivet asscssor, consequently the revenue goes into the county tressury for the beuefit of the county. Let usseo wh; the railroad companies deeire board fin proference to assersors, One eral ers members on this foor: jeot to being asmesced by tae pr. ciuc arsessora for this reason: Our line runs through 125 precinots iu th state. Precinot assessors demwd of us sunual pssses over vur road, and say to us that unlo the pes: is for.h coming they will raise our asacerment. ” Tdon’t beiteve They only de sire under the suthority of the county comminsicners to sssess railrcad pro. perty just the same a3 yours or mine —for local, sehooi and muxcipal pu: poses. Mr. Montgomery, of Furnas, e it seemed to him that the gentl from the cities were very anzicus about the coustry’s welfare. ‘Now we (hink we are able to take cars of ourselves. We expact to know h w to vote on this withont any dlciation from them They coms in here with insimidation. Under this bill these Ppeople expec toresp a revenue by tax ation on this railroad property in cnly one locality; 8ud n t0p of thst they expect that the people of thia siate will pay the taxation. It is trae that the rallrosd companies pay i1, bt they will o vut into the coun'ry snd increase their rates to pay this tax That is why we are opposedto this hil., We dou’s want 4o pay the expense of keeping up these clties. The law we now have is & good one, if enforced Me. Ransom, of Otoe: Will you tell us why o railroad company osn ing proper’y within city limits should not pay city taxes? Mr. Slocumb, of Jefferson, ssid was Dot a question between the reads and the people, but bet the country and the cities. He op- posed the bill Mr. McShave asked him what benefit his county would derive from an amsessment of a depot at $100, which cost §15,000, as is the ocuse with the Lincoln depot. Mr. Slocumb ssid it was not the fault of she law. The railroads did not fix the valustion on any proper ty. If thess depot grounds were vot asseased enough it is the fault of the board. The board of eqaalization bad taken grest paius to wake an equitable sppraisment on all prop erty. They bad o-licd before them the best attorneys in the state, Mr. Rosewater and others, and had sought all the iaformation obtainsble on the subject. The other bills before the house were all that is needed. Houss roll Ne. 1 was fally equal to the de- mande of the case and would psss both houses. Mr, Whedon said that renato filo No 40 was tFe only bill before the alature which provides for the tax lon of franchises. Mr. Broatch wantod the railroads topsy oity tax. It was nufair that the citizens be required to pay taxes properiy which adjoined property of the railroads which was exempt made a forcible argument in sup port of his position. Mr. Hollman took the same grouud a8 did Mr. M ntgemery. Mr. Juckson, of Douglas, exglal hir vote as follows. Being desirous of scting in good faith toward our rural friends who assisted us in pass- ing house rcll No 1, which I think every member of Douglas county were satlsfied with, I vote no. The clerk read the bill and called the roll. The bill was lost by a vote of 44 t0 34 It is rather strange that this bill ©could be ordered toa third reading one dsy by a vote of 46 aud the next day muster only 34 supporters.
