RAILROAD TAXATION IN MICHIGAN. 47 and the railroads almost without exception appeared before the board in opposition to the amounts assessed against them. The transcripts of the protests listened to by the board from the railroad representatives shows the use of almost every argument conceivable to the railroad mind. One is an attempt to alarm the board through the statement that the president of the largest railroad system in the state spoke of resigning when the amount of the assessor's appra...isal was brought to him.* 7 Again the veriest detail of the board's appraisal is found fault with. The efforts of the roads were rewarded, however, since more than eight millions was subtracted from the original assessment. The earlier railroad appraisal — Michigan appraisal of 1901 — was iu the hands of the board and celebrated as it was abroad and enjoying public confidence as it did at home this appraisal might not unreasonably be thought to have influenced the assessment. Incidental suggestion of this is indeed found in the close similarity in amounts between the board's assessment and the appraisal, but the search is a fruitless one in the utterances of the board for any acknowledgment that the appraisal was of exceptional usefulness.
