A GROSS INJUSTICE.

The constitution Of Minnesota has
provided for the taxation of rail
roads by imposing a rate of three
per cent. upon gross earnings to be
paid directly into the state treasury
for the benefit of the state at large.
Aseasual examination of this meth
cd will demonstrate its glaring ip-
justice. This direct tax upon gross
earnings is irrespective of all values
Of railroad property. used as such,
and is in lieu of all other taxes. upon
railroad property. either general or
special, and under the provisions of
the law, lands held under grants are
exempted from taxation. This Is a
double burthen upon certain locals
tiles, and an injustics to all. In
counties where there is a large
amount of railroad property. and
railroad lands, nenassess able, the
balance Of the property has to pay
all local expensis, including the care
Of exempt railroad property and
receives NO more benefit from the
three per cent. tax than county Of
equal assessed valuation containing
neither a mile of railroad bed, nor
an acre of railroad lands.
It costs just as much to prot ect
railroad property as any other. 1t
receives equal advantages fro m pub
lie moneys expen ded for the COM
mon welfare. Take this village for
example. We are maintaining an
sxpensiye system Of water works of
which We are Justly proud, but our
pride costs money. 1t is burden,
only tolsrable from the fact that it
gives US sense of security from
disastrous CONGREGATIONS. Every
dollars worth of railroad property
In the village enjoys this protection
equally with that of individuals, and
yet does not contribute one cent to
the support Of the sys tenn.
Stearns county has within her
borders nearly q hundred miles Of
railroad, and hundreds of thousands
of dollars worth of railroad property
to be cared for and protected, and
yet receives no more benefit from
the railroad tax than counties with
out a particle of such property.
, This is a patent injustice which
shonld be remedied, and it easily
might be. There is no better or
economical method Of collecting
railroad tax, perhaps, tina n that EN-.
ployed at present. but the money SO
collected should be apportioned
among the counties in proportion to
tho value of railroad property in
each county. and by the county ap-
portioned among the towns under
similar system. Or, as in some
states, let the railroad property be
subjected to local assessment, like
other property, and the taxes col
lected as other, taxes are. Under
either system the ends of justice
would be better subseryed.

A WORD TO THE FARMER.

II our county Alliance escape
falling into the hands of designing
and ambitious demagogues, 1t will
be . matter Of sincere congratula-
tien. The idea seems to be gaining
ground that 1t Is. primarily political
machine. where the truth is there is
shething mere foreign to its original
scope.
II get into politics at all, the
original idea was that it must be be-
cause it is dragged or forced. in by a
refusal on the part of existing par
ties to recognize the rights and in
tsrests of the agricultural classes, in
making nominations and shaping
policies. The Alliaace is an organ
ization for adv aneing the welfare of
the farmer, and he should think
thrice before taking step which
may rebound TO bis disadvantage.
The truest friend is not always the
most plausible one nor the one who
is loudest in his protestatlons of 10y
atty. No. ole processes more disin-
tereste dness than the demagogue.
Let the. farmer scrutlnize closely
these protested advocates of their
cause and ascertain, if possible,
whether underlying their demon
strative enthusiasm there is not
sinister motive. The man who is
anxious to fill this CT that Office, or
who desires to pledge the support of
the Alliance for or against any par.
ticuIar candidate may not be very
serioQ sly consumed with feryent
zeal of disintsrested cham pionship Of
the agricultural cause. Self.seeking
ambition or personal spleen may be
.cloaked beneath the surface. 1t
does not fellow that man may not
honestly believe himself well-fitted
10 represent certain interests, but
when he seeks to convey the impress
sion that he alone is so fitted, lie at
once displays all the characteristics
of offensive bossism. No human
being ever yet filed place so full as
