For ten years the legislature has aver­aged 250 separate acts a year. This in­creasing mass of undigested und conflict­ing legislation, much rof it passed for specific purposes, without regard to its relation to our general system of Juris­prudence. ma^es it well nigh impossible to knqw the law and t q o j . f i , , to-in­terpret the law. This burdens the people with litigation, noi so much to settle dte- Rutes as to ascertain what the law is. It m akes difficult the performance of offi­cial duty and especially the financing of municipal expenses. Such a systemIn lime fall of Its own w eigh^jO ov Clrigg* laid down a» the*j

A tra c t oi 268.94 acre* gear Mays la n d in g was purchased for the apm of $1,075.76, to which has been *dded jw ,4 gcres, the gift of jJehn Gifford, and a tract of 597 acres or young timber in f)aas River township, Kurliqgton county, has been secured at a cost o f ’ $879. Tho aggregate aereuge now acquired Is 970.5 acres at a cost of $1,964.76 for the land and~ P93.50 for surveys and m aps required by law.

Negotiations are In progress for tracts of larger acreage, subject to the approval of the legislature In the way of sufficient aggmpriaHf»n Among them Is Weymouth tract of 24,700 acres, well timbered, tying near Mays Landing and Egg Harbor City, which has been offered a t $5 an acre. The tra c t contains a pond of> 200 acre* and a water .power already develop­ed, with fu tu re possibilities of 450 horse­power. ’ T he average flow Is 199,000,000 gallon* daily_and the minimum 32,250,000 gallons. W ith storage, 128.000,000 gallons dally may be collected. The tract also contains deposits of v clay, gravel and ■tone, a fully equipped sawmill, a paper mill, a sto re and tw enty-four house*.

Ap­parently nearly $500,000,000 of tanglhlfi.per­sonal property escapes the assessor. This is abqutSO per cent of the presen t assess­ed valuations of all property in th e state and If assessed should result In reducing the tax rates 33 1-3 per cent on the pres ent basis of expenditure.

pial burdens and equal rights for all, corporations as well as Individuals, are the principles that should control our tax leg islation.", In order to produce this ©quality w it only the rate, but; valuation, must be weighed. One class of property may pay the same rate as another, but If It Is .iubject to a lower o r higher valua­tion the principles of equal taxation are

Th«re are two distinct methods by which this class of property may he taxed—one by t&xing It locally, the other by taxing It by the sta te . '

T axa tion by Local Assessor*.The taxation of the main stem by local

assessors involves the cu tting up of this class of property into sections, contermi-

wlth the boundaries of the taxing districts through which It passes. This would destroy for purposes of taxation the value which it derives by virtue of its continuity from term inal to terminal and would* result in a corresponding loss In revenue.- .As I said In my inaugural: "Property of this kind is valued as a whole. Divide it and you destroy It.”

One, mile of the main stem of a railroad Is as valuable as any o th e r mile for the purpose for which it is designed, and yet under a system of local assessments one inITe~ of railroad would be valued at one

another a t another. One mile, for example, .ir ght be valued a t $10,000, an ­other a t $25,000, another a t $60,000. The mero sta tem ent of th is fac t shows the possible Tnequaltty-of-sueh a scheme.

T axation by th e 8tat*.The main stem is a c lass of property

m eet ^particularly fitted to be set aside for tax- busl- atlon by the state. If belongs to no one

city or county, but extends through the various m untfes and municipalities of the state. Its pntronag©'is derived not from one section, but from nil-section* of tha state, and the Interstate traffic, which adds g reatly to the vhlue of our Valiroad highways, cannot be claimed by any one section, but by all section* of the state. Tiie revenues out of w hich the taxes are pakl are either contributed by the people of the s ta te 'o r derived from a source in which they can all claim equal right. I n ­deed. the authority of the railroad to do business is granted by the legislature, representing all sections of the state. Equitable considerations therefore would *®em to regard this c lass ’of property a* a source of revenue fo r all tiie people of the commonwealth. I f the main stem should be., taxejl in th is .way the applica Hon to this property of the average tax rate of the state would seem to be logical and complies fully with the requirements of equal taxation.

The average tax rate"’• of this sta te lt» about 2 per cent. The m ain stem. Includ­ing franchises which »Pe figured the valuo of the main stem, together with the personal property, produces a revenue to the sta te of a little over $961,000. I f the average rate of the sta te Were applied thl* class of property. Instead Of paying $961,000, would pay, subject to equalisation of valuation, about $3,800,000, within $800,- 000 of the present to tal state Income from all sources. The railroads now pay taxes

$1,140,000 a year, which is turned directly over to the municipalities, so tha t this would make the to tal taxes paid by raUrpads for all purposes about $4,940,000, ojpfnearly. 25 per cent of the total taxes UO f paid by all the property of (the state.

Methods of D istribution.The distribution of the tax derived from

the main stem is a .separate and distinct proposition from t h e ; o f ta c t io n .

Reformto the'-'TjjIe. ___ _____ _ _____ _Pares with our sta te In many particulars, finds - $597 worth o f personal p roperty per capita for assessm ent. New Je rsey should be able to find more than $72.

The lack o f uniform ity in Valuations and assessments Is well known!? This is largely due to a system that depends upon tka-xarying Judgments of 500 o r more dif­ferent tax-assessors with as many-differ­ent views; In apme states uniform ity Is secured by a s ta te board o r county board making a complete v a lu a tio n qf ai] property at periods of from th ree to n** years. Inequalities grow up In th© In­terim, but a readjustm ent of values cor- rects these Inequalities a t each recurring

state assessm ent. The adoption of some such method a s this In

ur own state is worthy of consideration.Taxpayer* and Tax 8pend*r*.

Th* economical adm inistration of state affair* and ih e Increase In the state. r^ve-, nues under wise legislation have enabled the state to ass is t in the relief of local taxation. New Jersey dtfes th is with a liberal hand. Sh8 la not only paying part of the expense* ’of city and county, but she contributes , large sums th a t would otherwise be ra ls^ i through local taxes. This year such aid to the various taxing districts Amounts to ovei^ $2,320,00(1 fro this should be added $486,000, th e proceeds of the ac t *bf -last year, tax in g second- class railroad property a t local rates, making a- total of over $2,800,000.

Nearly all of this annual re turn ha* come wlthip the last ten years, yet dur­ing this 'period of ^Increased income from th e stale-local taxes have Increased.'•The taxpayer in the m unicipalities haq a right to ask to what purpose is this vast

contributed if he derives no benefit* therefrom in reduced tax bilLs.' Our bd"as£*’ ed^ystem of corporate taxa tion fails,if itconstitutes only an km'ftfljyed- ‘ fund for

spender and affords no .dividend* tqujhe taxpayer. There a re 50 taxing dis­tricts in the sta te wi;th tax tea between $2 and $2.&*36 with rates betw een $%ffi,.g£id $2,50. 53 with ra tes between $2.50 gn<± fit. Sh with rates between. $3 and $3.50 and (TWlfh rates above $5)[50. As I sa id In my in­augural, the expenditure* In twefity-slx cities In th is fixate increased In ten yeaTs 75 per cent, wljjile the valuations increased only 40 per oerjk, so: that such tax rhtes as these, if valuations are honest and the listing of rataL les complete, mean confis­cation of property.

This law increased by $485,000 the ©mount Jbf taxe* annually to be pafd" by the rallrajids. The *ame legislature, in- p’tirsuance of the policy inaugurated two year* ago. deferred to the sta te bon rdjof equalization of tajees under a joint reW lutlon, ‘‘the ifurther consideration of- the taxation of Valiroad p roperty .” This re­ferred to th* main stem, o r right of

M ta^ktlThe sta te might % porti<ra[of the
