Uist year the railroads and public ut- lilities were assessed at 49 per cent of their estimated actual value, which l means that they paid taxes tiniej as heavily as did the Huwley Com pany, assuming that the! state tax commission's figures are correct.

These queer figures were typical of many that were brought out at tin; ratio hearings in Salem. Other figures are: Many timber companies are paying $100 taxes a year on each quarter- section of timber land. It is a race between the taxgatherers and the sawmills to see who will get tho value out of the timber Cattle, banks, railroads and public utilities are uHsessed at about double the ration of farm lands and residence property. The reason aparcntly is that market reports, bank statement and public utility statements aro public property, enabling the .assessment -officials to capture a larger proportion of value from these 'riwy marks of taxation" than from farms nd reslden ccs, the real value of which is not ob tuinable from market reports and of ficial reports that arc readily acccs: iblc.
