The precise question, however, has never been directly decided by the Supreme Court of this State, and, as you can readily see, the matter is not wholly free from doubt. I would there- fore advise that all bonds of this char- acter be assessed by the respective As- sessors of the several counties, and if suck essment be contested the matte } pon national bank stock alued $7,500,000, may be eliminated here may be a further reduction of sed values of $5,500,000, to cover un- , making a total loss of nd a reduction of the total ent to $373,000,000. Upon such an assessed valuation, with a tax of $1 on every $1)0, the rate would be 94 cents. It is difficult to ae- termine, therefore, what the rebate will be, and those property owners that | have paid their personal property tax will have to wait for what is due them. | A fact in this connection is interesting. | While the personal property roll has | heen increased enormously, the individ- ual tax ers will not have to pay more this y than they did last year, as the 1ate of taxation has been de- | creased proportionately as much, if not than the asi sed valuation has en increased. The real estate tax- payers, as already shown, will pay very | much less, as the assessed valuation of | their property has not been increased | materially. There may &till be further rellef to the taxpayers by assessing and taxing Londs.- The Assessor is determined to do this, and although he has turned his essment rolls over to the Supervis ors, he will nevertheless make an add tion of $21,000,000 represented in the as- seéssment as bonds. Attorney General Ford's opinion in this matter has thus become an issue he .tax and definitely settled. Very truly yours, TIREY L. FORD, Attorney General. By WILLIAM M. ABBOTT, Deputy Attorney General. Bonds similar to those discussed by the Attorney General are assessed in other States, and Assessor Dodge be- lieves they should be taxed in this State. In speaking generally yesterday of his assessment and its meaning he sald: “I hope the taxpayers of this city will see that the way to secure low taxes and a low rate is honestly to return their property to the Assessor. If this were done a dollar rate in a few years would be regarded as exorbitant as a rate of §1 31 is now. This city, unlike any other city in the United States of over 100,000 population, has no bonded debt to provide a sinking fund for through yearly taxation. Think of Chicago, With 66 cents in each tax levy for sinking fund and interest on levy alone; Philadelphia with 71 cents, Bos- ton with 41 cents, Cincinnati with 51 cents, and other Eastern cities in much the same condition. “Why should we not have the lowest more, and | Legislature and court are at sea upon | can then be speedily tested in the courts | tax rate in our enviable position of any city in the United States? We certainly should. I would be willing to guaran- tee that in three years 1 could reduce the tax rate of this city under the new charter to 70 cents on the $100 and not raise to any extent the valuation of real estate. “As to my assessments of the large corporations, T am prepared to show that while they are largely increased they are not unjust or burdensome, and that in the past many of these corpora- tions have had their property outra- geously undervalued.” Since Assessor Dodge has turned over his books to the Supervisors the board has adopted a resolution to the effect that having met and examined the as- sessment books of real and property for the fiscal year 1899, it will hereafter be in session until July 17, for the purpose of hearing ap- ments. WHEELER IS COMING HERE OPINIONS REGARDING HIS RE- CENT LETTER TO THE BOARD. Belief That He Will Accept the Presi- dency of the University—The Syle Episode.
