TRANSPORTATION COMPANY
WOULD NOT PAY ONE CENT
Attorney Keith Declares That the Tax
on Cars Is IIleuaI.

The Merchants Despatch Trans
portation company, through it's attor-
ney. yesterday filed a protest with the
board of equalization against the as
sessment Of twenty-eight of it's cars
which were in Ramsey county May 1,
when the personal property assess
ment was made.
Mr.. Keith, who represented the com
pany, claimed that the assessment was
illegal, and that it will not stand in
court. IF the tax is not abated," said
Mr.. Keith, 1--WE will fight the case to
the end, for it means thousands of dol
lars to my clients. If every county in
the state where we operate would take
like action, our yearly taxes would be
enormous
Mr.. r. A. Schultz, the company's
agent, claimed that two of the cars
charged to its assessment were not the
company's property, while four other
cars assessed were not in the state on
May 1.
Mr.. Schultz also contended that
$1,000 was an exorbitant assessment
for the cars, as they cost but $500,
when new. Mr.. Keith in answer to
Assessor Conley's question as to what
assessment the company would pay,
replied: eve won't pay one cent. The
action is clearly illegal and in open
violation of the interstate commerce
laws. I don't care whether you assess
us $1,000 or $40, we will fight the case
just the same"

MCCONNELL IS VIGILANT
SAYS MUCH HAS BEEN DONE BY
HIS DEPARTMENT..
Vast Amount of Work Performed in
Keeping Food Products Up to
Standard and Driving Authorizations
from the State-Lack of Food Law
in Iowa Interferes.

Dairy Commissioner Mcconnell is
quite proud Of the work done by his
department during the past year and
he does not hesitate to say so. In the
course of conversation yesterday the
commissioner said:
Our departf ent has done a vast
amount of work in the last twelve
months and Is better organized than
ever before. Expert creamery men
are in charge of that branch of the de-
partment and there will not be a
creamery In the state at the end Of the
year that has not been inspected. The
department has done a large amount
of educational work in addition to the
other business and one of the features
was the scoring of butter, which was
conducted for twelve months
Another new feature of the depart
ment work has been the picnic dairy
meetings, which have been a success.
particularly from an educational point
or view. We have also taken up the
undertaking and tests by creamery
officials
In the food work there has never
been time when the department has
done so much and such good work as
in the past year. We hope we have
driven out of the state what is known
as the 'box-ear peddler.' This crusade
mas done much for the manufacturers
and jebbers of the state in that it al
lows them chance to dispose of their
goods and also gives the people the
benefit of pure foods. BY driving
out the 'box-car peddlers' we protect
not only the people, but the manufac-
turers and jobbers from competition
with inferior and aduIterated goods
from other states. 1t also protects the
retailer who buys from Minnesota
firms, in. that if there is anything
wrong the retailers have a recourse.
The jobbers and manufacturers have
shown their appreciation and helped
the department along in every possible
way.
Many Of the peddlers were caught
on information furnished by the trav-
cling men for Minnesota firms, and to
these gentlemen due credit must be
given. The department, however, has
followed the cases reported and secured
convictions and has about broken up
the business. The fact that states like
Iowa have no pure food law makes
it more. trying to- our department, as
the manufacturers and jobbers distrib-
ute in the counties along the state
line large quantities of adulterated
goods, which are sold to the consumers
at greatly reduced prices. We are
making the best fight possible against
this practice and the statistics show
we are making headWay.''

A noted medical specialist physi-

the digestive organs are not doing
their work properly, when constipation
is poisoning the blood, when disease
with iron hand takes possession of

will be found a marvellous banisher of

men and women during the hot August

an acknowledged specialist should at
once convince the suffering and dis
eased that DR.. Phelps great medical

Mrs. Vincent Markell, 522 Edmund

pioslon early yesterday morning and
died four hours ziater, after suffering
the most excruciating agony. How the
explosion occurred will probably never
be known. as the unfortunate woman
was unable to speak, when neighbors
rushed to her assistance.
1t is supposed that Mrs. Markell rose,
as was her custom, about o'clock to
heat some milk Tor her one-month- old
baby. To do this she was obliged to
light an alcohol lamp, and it is assum-
ed that she attempted to fill the lamp
which was in the room. The alcohol
lamp was a crude affair, evidently made
at home, and it is likely that when
Mrs. Markell ATTEMPTED to replenish it.,
the gallon can exploded in her hands,
throwing the blazing liquid all over

the explosion and the shrieks of the
suffering woman. When her sister ran
