ing the date of listing the same as in
that state and eXempting all grain in in
terstate transit although temporarily
interests upon an equal footing with
those of our sister state. This, in my
Judgment, should be done. Ali other
grain except that in interstate transit is
assessed and taxed in Wisconsin as other
personal property on May 1. This sug-
gestion, am also advised, meets With
the approval of the tax commission.
The proposed code provides for the re-
peal of the vessel tonnage tax. In this
respect allow me to make the following
suggestions.
PLEA FOR LAKE
SHIPPERS INTERESTS.
Every good citizen takes pride in the
commercial advancement of his state. It
should be our policy to foster tendencies
which promise greater wealth and pros
perity to any section of the state. Al
though remote geographically from ting
seaboard, it is apparent, unless prevented
by legislation, that this state may soon
outstrip many of her rivals in the mag
nitude of her shipping interests. The
registration of vessels navigating inter-
national waters at the port of Duluth
indicates that it is q favorite port. When
we bear in mind that interstate tonnage
is beyond the taxing power of the state,
and that the revenues derived from tom
mage tax upon vessels must always great
ly exceed what would arise from any
other method applied to that class of
property, it is apparent that the subject
is one which calls for your most careful
consideration. I trust, therefore, that
you will able to enact legislation
which, while not in violation of the con-
stitution, will preserve to the state adj

of 1901, providing for the appointment
by the justices Of the supreme court Of
commissioners to revise, codify and an
notate the existing general laws, ex-

tion statutes on the subject of taxa
ton" and as it is desirable that the re-
vision, when completed should contain
all public laws. appropriately arranged,
it would seem advisable that such legis-
lation be had as will be conducive TO
that end 1t is obvious also that the work
of the commissioners is of such charac-
ter that it should not be unduly hurried
The legislation of the past thirfyffve
years has reached an enormous b1Ilk

many subjects redundant and Contra

that harmony which the public interests
require That the work may be con-
tinued in such manner as to accomplish
the best results, action should be tekeE
at the present session. The commission
ers will submit for your consideration
some suggestions on the subject, to
which / invite your attention.
The entire matter now rests With you.
1t is for you to decide whether the work
of your tax commission will be in vain
Or not. I trust, and have faith to be-
lieve, that your deliberations will result
IN great good to the state, and that q
tax law will be placed upon the statute
books that will equal, If not surpass,
that of any other state in the Union.
am advised that the members of the tax
commission if desired, will at all times
during your session, be ready and willing
to respond to your call and give you
whatever assistance and information
you may request.

 Our informant states that Mir. John son has four claims, located this year, lying about a mile south of the Trilby mine and one-half mile from the Inde- pendent group, belonging to Ben Swininger MT. Johnson did the title work on the different claims, disclos- ing a well defined ledge about three feet wide. and carrying very good val ues. Since completing the title work MT Johnson has been prospecting about the claims, and several weeks ago knocked of a piece of ledge crop pih6 oAd ioAhu II tO bO 'Niy sprinkled with coarse gold. He i'm mediately went to work taking out the ore and sacking it, and after taking out number of sacks started morning out the yellow metal with a horn spoon first grinding up the ore in a stone metat. Out of the first 50 pounds of ore. MT. Johnson horned $1S650, re ceiving that amount from. a Phoenix bank for his product. This is at the rate of over $6.000 at ton. MT.

 Mir. Johnson was so fearful of his discovery that it might only be a pocket, that he did not make it public until after he had taken out and hid den number of sacks or ore and yet had more in sight. At his cabin MT. Johnson has two large pieces of the ore weighing about two hundred pounds apiece, and literally specked with gold, and not in small pieces either. Our informant states that Mir Johnson still goes on morning out gold and making big wages.
