READY TO CHECK UP
BANK EXAMINER WILL SCRUTIy-
IZE THE BOOKS OF RAIL
ROAD COMPANIES
TO VERIFY GROSS EARNINGS
Under Amended Law Examiner Must
Once a Year See That Statements
Furnished State Are
Correct.

The extra session Of the legislature in
creased the duties of the public examiner
by amending the law so as to provide
that the examiner shall at least once
year visit all railroad or railway COM
panies, maintaining, operating or manag.
ing any line or lines of railway situated
in Minnesota, and examine their books
of account, and records bearing upon or
evidencing the gross receipts for all bust
ness transacted by them, and report to
the state treasurer the amount for each
company on the first day of January in
each year.
Public Examiner s. T. Johnson is pre-
pairing to discharge these new duties i'm
posed upon him. He has requested the
state treasurer, state auditor, and rail-
road and warehouse commission to give
him full information as to the names,
location and amount of gross earnings
reported to the state by all companies
paying a gross earnings tax. He also
wants to know the rate of tax, and the
gross amount paid for last year. With
these data, he thinks his department can
begin the work of checking up and veri-
flying the reports made by these COM
panies.
The railroad companies pay the state a
per cent tax, with the exception of the
Great Western, which pays per cent,
and some new lines, which only pay
per cent. Express companies pay 6 per
cent on gross earnings, after deducting
the amount they pay the railroad COM
pames. Telephone companies pay per
cent, and sleeping car companies a like
amount.
Mr.. Johnson has devised a plan by
which he believes taxes can be collect
ed from the fast freight lines stock car,
refrigerator and other proprietary COM
panies. The law taxing them 3 per cent
on gross earnings was recently declared
unconstitutional by the Minnesota su-
preme court in the Canada Cattle Car
case, and these companies are paying no
tax. Mr.. Johnson believes they can be
reached, nevertheless, and he has thought
out a plan which he hopes will prove ef-
fective. He has submitted it to the at
torney general, who has approved it, and
Deputy Auditor Iverson has also indorsed
it. Mr.. Johnson has asked the railway
commission to supply him with data as
to these companies.
Examiner Johnson yesterday sent out
letters to the state bank examiners of all
the states, suggesting the desirability of
forming national association of such Of
fcials, and asking them to express an
opinion on the subject. Mr.. Johnson
believes that it would be a great thing
for all of these officials, if they could
get together every year and discuss the
work they are doing in their respective
states. He says it would be a great help
to the newer ones to have the advice
and experience of those older in the
service.

PRAISE FOR SCHIFFMANN
DEPUTY BARROWs THROWS DOU-
QUET AT HIS CHIEF.

II. G. Barrows chief deputy oil inspect
or OF Minnesota, says the people of Min
resota are indebted to Fred Schifmann
for better grade Of Illuminating oil
than was formerly used in this state
Mr.. Barrows says:
The Standard OIL COMPANY" said Mr.
BarroWs, is now shipping illuminating
OIL dlrect to Duluth and other points in
thas territory from Whiting, near chi
-cago. We have examined it, and find If
a very much higher grade than that sun
piled IN the past. Much of the oil that is
In store at West Superior is of verv poor
quality. 1 understand that all Of the bet
ter grade has been sold out, and ii Is
necessary for the company, in order to
meet the demand for a better grade, to
snip 1t all-rail to this point, instead of by
poat as is the custom in the summer
The efforts of our department would
have availed nothing if it had not been
Tor the willingness of the Standard Oil
company to listen to the complaints and
improve the situation The Minnesota
law governs only the fire test of the oil.
The burning quality Is in the snecifc
gravity, ard the law doesn't touch that.
The poor oil that has been complained OF
passes the fire test, SO that the oil com
pany has shown a disposition to be rair
In the matter. Mr.. Schiffmann Is entitled
to much credit, however, for he has sue
ceeded in getting the company to send In
supplies of better grade than we had
been getting.
IT hope that, as soon as possible, we
shall have law governing the specific
gravity Of oil. The only danger that
might be encountered In that connection
Is that the test may be placed SO hig1
as to make the price of Oil almost PRO-
hibitive
Il will say for the Standard Oil COM
pany, which, as we know, is target tor
much criticism, that it always conforms
to the law. No instance has, ever come
under my observation where 1t has sought
to eyade it. Neither does the company
interfere with legislation
