owner of a certain tract of land sit
uated near Chemawa. entered Into

to It a light of way across his land oa

would maintain a station upon It and
stop Its trains' to take on and put off
passengers.

Tllmon Ford died aereral years ago
and tha land went to Frank Ford, his
brother, who notified the company that
he d. sired the contract fulfilled. Tha
company declined and In a suit Instl
tuted In the circuit court here Ford
won. but the Supreme Court reverses
that Judgment on tha ground that
such a clausa la a right-of-way con
tract la against publla policy.
After pointing out that Ford desires
to bars a station oa his land, aa ha
Intends to subdivide It Into nve-arre
tracts and sell It. tha court lays down
tha rule that "a railroad corporatloa
Is a quasi public agent and that It la

ment to aecura advantage to It. to
establish Its stations at points most
convenient for tha public Interests. Aa

Tha court further says that tha sub

overcharged them on the assessment
for the Improvement of that thorough

OLTXrPIA. Wash, Sept. I. (Spe
cial.) The Stata Board of Equaliza
tion haa announced that tha tax levy
for 111. for stata purposes, will ba
i.JO mills. The tax Is divided aa follows:
General fund, 3.10 mills; state school,
1 mills: military, .20 mills; highway, 1
mill. This Is a cut of .13 mill, com
pared with 1510. Thla year the school
tax waa cut .11 mill and tha military
levy raised .05 mill.
In 1911 the total amount to be raised
by taxation Is IS.062.1S7. which Is 3141.
000 more than was raised In 1910, tha
rate being lower, but the total assessed
value this year Is I95S.125.934. as
against J90S.2I7.944 a year ago.
Taagle Onlays Roads.
Under a ruling made by the Attorney-General,
who held that the law Is
mandatory, the Board of Equalization
levied a tax of 1 mill for state high
way purposes, although the last Legis
lature neglected to provide for the
spending of this money, owing to the
mix-up over state roads which resulted
In the killing, oa tha final night of tha
session, of all road programmes.
The lawmakers did provide that tha
levy for state aid. or permanent high
ways, should "not exceed one-half
mill." so the board made no levy for
that fund.
Five counties had their pleas heard
for a higher percentage ratio. They
ware aa folows: Chehalla from 20.17
to 20.17 per cent: Grant from 20.34 to
2S.lt per cent; Kitsap from 30.09 to
35. 80 per cent; Okanogan from 25.35 to
33.35 per cent, and Skagit from 35.23 to
30.10 par cent. This means that they
win pay less tsxes to the state In 1911
than in 1910: the higher the percentage
of the assessed ratio to the actual
value the smaller In proportion are tha
taxes.
Railroad Levy Raised.
Ona of the features of the 1911 fig
ures la that the railroad and other
publlo service corporation property
was Increased practically 30 per cent
over last year, while the general prop
erty went up less than 5 per cent,
which means that of tbe Increase the
railroads will pay about S( to the fl
advance paid on general property. The
actual value of all property exclusive
of steam and eleotrlo railroads and
telegraph lines for 1911 Is 12,007.277,
740 and this was equalised by the State
Board at 5802,014.133. making the ratio
for tha state 39.985 per cent. In 1910
the ratio was 39.26 per cent, due, how-
