MICHIGAN LEGISLATURE
Meets in Special Session to Pass
Reform Tax Amendments.
Py Telegraph to The Tir.ic3.
DETROIT, MICH., Oct. 11. The special
session of the legislature called by Gov
irnor Pingroe began today at noon. It
was called to pass a resolution submit tins;
to the people a constitutional amendment
for 'he ad valorem taxation upon cash
value of the property of railroads and
other corporation;! the same, as individual
property is taxed.
This is tlic amendment the last session
of the State Senate refused to submit to
a vote of the people, the passage of which,
the Supreme. Court held, is essential. The
amendment will also include the repeal
of all special charters under which the
Michigan Central and Lake Shore Hail
roads are at present operated in Michigan.
If the legislature refuses to adopt the
measures it is said (loveraor Filigree will
come oat scuaroiy for the Democratic
nominees, especially the legislative can
didates in Michigan. The Republican
politicians say that the Governor lias
chosen an opportune timend that his
ohl opponents will not dare disrupt the
partv bv opposing tlio proposition. If the
legislature accepts the situation immedi
ately, then the Governor will have won a
(lever victory, which will aid the party
in Mb higan.
All of the gubernatorial nominees were
invited to this session for the special pur
pose of giving them an opportunity of
presenting; their views. The members of
the Republican Stale Central Committee
are almo-sl unanimously in favor of tho
measure.
