" Tbe truth it tbal it G tbe House of Assembly, and the aprcial howlers for .railroad taxath.-D.who are moat clamorous for the vlolstioo of these tir.ail priaclplrt of const itutioual equity. Tbey propose to . an invidious Stale tax upon the property of the railroads. while exempting therefrom ail other species of property. If tbe railroad companies were oot disposed, tn a spirit of generous concession to the public necessities, to ignore and their undoubted constitutional rights, thete is scarcely any doubt that they could successfully recirt tuch itnpo- . lUCJ WUIUWlCTWIBIiy RUH IUCII imj> ,

' aitiooa by planting tbemaelset upon tbe j rights which arc involved in tbe very in- . bibltion which the Amrriam quotes. It 1 ia tbe House of AaaSnbty, dominated by ' a spirit of reckless demsgoism, thxl his , sought to subject the railroads lo. iavld. ious unconstitutional burdens. 1 But the moat outrageous discriminations . ' against tbe railroads are proposed snd I urged with loud mouthed clamor, by the . representatives of Jersey Ciiy. This | muoicipalUjfUa been run Into enonnims j indfblcdncss by the comtpt and extra vs. gaat schemes of a plundering ring gov. , eminent. That ring was brought in. ' lo being, and clothed with power to rob, , largely through the instrumentality of Ibe . very men who are now clamoring I he r moat vehemently for railroad taxation. , ■ Having by gross mis-government and lav. r ish waste of the money of the helpless , tux-payers, burdened the dty with s ' - a uih iog load of debt, tbey now seek lo > divert attention from their own respoosl- ' bilily by Inaugurating a fierce crusade . against tbe railroads and by unloading i upon these unoffending corporations, that ' bad no part whatever in tbe creation of the debts, the burdrns which they have i placed upon the shou idera of the people r All the clsmnrlhat huVni beard oo Ibis [ subject has derived iu lospiratioo from , this source. It is the outcry of a ruined spendthrift trying to impose tbe eonar. t qnercee of his debauchery upon {popcenl shnuldera. Il has teen cunningly foster- , nl and encouraged by large clsraes of ► people, claiming to be respectable dtixeoi, who hope to profit by this organised raid " upon the railroads. Tlic scheme is deep i and far-reaching. For serrral years past I- the knowing ones -polil ids ns, lawyers. 1 Gubrrnstional randulstiv sod others with-

i in the secret— have made no pretense of r psy'-ng their full share of tales. Tbey ii evade these obligations to tbe public by a e system of gross undervaluations by the , BXBesaora. Tlie latter are to tbe ring, and 1 I are kept there by powerful influences that s profit from their retention. As we i showed the other day. the personal pjopr crty of Jersey City ia assessed at only | . 85.646.806, while that of Somerset Is aa- . icteed at 87.661.884. And JrrnryCity U • a vast aggregation of tbe moat pernios! ' J property, while Sotneiaet is a rural agri t cultural county, with comparatively very . r little iSeraonal properly. A fair valuation - in Jersey City would undoubtedly ahow ' ; 620.060,000 or 825,000,000 of tiers. nal . rotables. But. aa wc have said, the people escape Uxatioo on the personal satete ili rough a drlihf rare system of undervalo.
