What are you to do in the case of side tracks? A freight train running from New Bedford to Boston is obliged to be side-tracked for some other train. That side track is main- tained for all trains, passenger and freight, through and 28 local. How can you tell what proportion of the cost of the maintenance of that track is to be charged to that train? Possibly one train may run a certain distance with- out being side-tracked, and the next train may be side- tracked twice or three times in the sa...me distance. Are you to charge a proportionate part of the side-track ex- pense to one train and not to the others? Is it not obvious that you cannot apportion this item of cost upon any of the traffic for the benefit of which the side track is main- tained, but that it must be charged to the entire traffic of the road? Take the case of taxation. Local taxation is an import- ant item. It varies in different counties and in different states through which the railroad runs. Are you to charge the taxation in each county upon the business in that county proportionately?
