If we reckon this as the gross valuo, and mako, as is done in London, a maximum deduction

Now there dro, at the lowest estiniato, 2,500 towns, independent of treaty ports and provincial capitals, whose rateable value is not less than that of Bing-wy. Hence we have tr bau property worth at the very least, Tls. 20,000,000,000 about £3,000,000,000! A tax-of one per cent on this property would
