The incorporation into Jwn or
city of any territory necessarily in
creases the taxes therein. By estab-
fishing local government, with all
it's powers and privileges, in limited
locality, increased expenses have to
be met by the tax payers residing
therein. Whether this tax is imposed
to the limit allowed by statute, will
depend upon the ideas and principles
of the officers elected. Their powers
in this respect however equal or sur
pass the officers of a county.
Section 1852 and 1858 of the
Revised Statutes read as follows:
"Section 1852. The city or town
council shall have power to raise by
tax and assessment upon all real
and personal property, and by license
on professions, business and Occupa-
sions carried on within the corpora
ton, all sums of money which may be
required for The Improvement and
good government of the city, and for
carrying out the powers and duties
herein granted and imposed"
"Section 1858. The city or town
may make its own assessment of
property for taxation, but the Valua-
ton of property by the municipality
shall not exceed the last valuation
thereof by the State for taxation.
The total taxes levied upon any prop
erty by any municipal corporation in
any one year shall not exceed one
per cent upon such State valuation;
but this provision is not to be so
construed as to prevent the said cor
poration from leVying sufficient tax
10 meet the payment of interest on
its outstanding bonds, and to provide
for the payment of the principal
thereof when the same shall become
due, or from making such special
assessments of property as are III this
chapter specified"
Section 1854 provides that every
city and town shall be empowered TO
levy and collect a special tax annually,
for water works and fire protection,
upon all property within the cor
Dorate limits of any such city or
town. Section 1861 provides for the
various purposes and reads as fol-
lows:
Section 1861. The city or town
council shall have power, with the
approval of two-thirdS of the regis
tered voters of the city having quail
tications specified in the preceding
section, and actually voting, TO issue
bonds bearing such rates of interest
as may be deemed best by the coun-
ell, not exceeding the legal rate OF
interest in this State, whenever il
may be Necessary for the purpose OF
building or repairing the public works
OF the city, the widening and extern
sion of streets or parks, payment OF
existing Indebtedness of the city, oI
amy other municipal purpose.
Section 1868 limits the amount o.
bonds that may be issued, to 5pel

Louis W. Hill, vice president of
She Great Northern, and son Of James
j. Hill, the president, has been il
Dakota personally uperintending
the opening Of the railway lines in
that state. He alleges that there is
a coal trust which is responsible for
the coal shortage all over the North
west. He says that in every town
he has visited he has found parties
who tried to get Fin coal early, but
were refused by the dealers at the
head of the lakes, and referred to
local retail dealers~~from whom they
were asked TO sDorder. These retail
dealers had no coal in stock nor did
they place thei1 orders until late in
the fall, when the roads we're ham
pered by scarcity Of cars ION account
of moving the crop. All the blame
for the coal famine therefore should
not be laid on the railroads, who
during the past month have done
everything possible to relieve it.
The fact Of the matter is that the
retail coal dealers, as we'll as the
people and the railroads did not
figure on the enormous snow fall,
which has impeded and almost par
alyzed traffic on some lines.

Should any private enterprise be-
sides the trust be forced to the wall
by the competition of the state s
factory, it is question whether it
is we'll for the state to branch out
as manufacturer. There are also
other lines which it might be asked
to take up, perhaps with just as
much show of justice. The .Sheat
does not say that it would be detri-
menal to esta blish binder factory
at the states prison, but it recog-
nlzes that the question has two sides,
and deserves to be thoroughly dis
cussed and understood before any
move is made.

The governors of Iowa, Wisconsin
and minnesota have all recommend
ed a. 2-cent passenger rate on the
railroads, and the legislatures in
each state will doubtless enact laws
carrying the recommendations into
effect. North and South Dakota are
yet too sparsely settled to make a
= cent rate justifable, but the people
in those states are calling for laws
against passes and rebates, SO as to
be in line for reduction later on.
In the east it has been found that
a reduction in passenger rates in
creases travelling, and for that rea-
son is gain instead of loss to the
railroads.

Warden Wolfer proposes, and
Governor johnson recommends, that
q plant for the manufacture Of farm
machinery be esta blished at the
saltwater prison.. This recommen-
dation opens up a grave question as
TO how far the state can prudently
go in the manufacturing business.
THAT it is invading the realm of
private enterprise by starting the
manufacture Of farm machinery,
cannot be denied, but it, is IN line
with the sociaistic legislation which
established the Irvine industry at
the states prison, and which has
boen found to be very beneficial to
the farmres, and indirectly to all the
people Of the state. The manLfac-
ture OF self binders is not strictly
speaking public utility, yet in a
great agricultural state like Minnc-
sofa, it may almost be considered so,
and, furthermore, agriculture being
the basic industry and foundation
OF all wealth, the cheapening OF self
binders for the farmers, would ma
turally rebound to the benefit Of all
the people, whether farmers or not.
In our day the state encroaches
more and more upon the domain OF
private enterprise and it is difficult
to draw the line between the two.
The reason why the state is urged
to 60 into the farm machinery bust
ness is that it may break up the
harvester trust, which, it is alleged,
has forced the farmers to pay heavy
tribute to it during past years. A
factory at the state prison, it is
claimed, would force the trust to be
satisfied with reasonable profits. AS
the state will not 60 into the bust
ness for the purpose of making
money, it may even be able to force
the truss out OF business in this
state, provided the plant is large
enough to supply the demand, and
as economically and efficiently man.
aged as is the business of the trust.

From the foot of the mountain to
The castle high above, the bride path
runs a long way round; and between
bend and bend lies great ravine that
neither man nor beast had crossed, 40
feet at the narrowest from side to
side. The edges overhang so that the
bottom is not seen; and when a stone
falls one grows tired of listening for
the distant crash below. Alan Mac
donald rode straight for the ravine.
When he came to the edge he looked
till he found a plot of level grass, and
there he rested his horse for mo-
ment, and patted his neck and whis-
pered in his ear.
Now, boy, now" he cried. The
horse sprang forward over the even
ground, gathered himself together on
the edge of the abyss and flew into
the air.

Alan Macdonald under his breath.

ans face hung over him, framed in
the mist-the face of Mary MacAllis-

which we disagree as per the exper-
fence of both our predecessor in the
nursery business, as also the Austin
Nursery Co. Of Texas. the Fancher
Creek Co. of California, and in fact,
any other southwest nursery, for
planting trees in this country is far
different from planting in a cold win
tered country. our December and
possibly January is to the Salt River
valley, as is April or May to the north
and east, viz: a spring time.
The tree planted in November or
December gets the benefit of our win
ter rains and properly cared for, takes
on fibrous root and is in proper con-
dition to put or tree growth as soon
as our warm weather opens up in
March. We promise to prove this by
furnishing the trees for the expert
ment and !: planted as stated above,
and the tree roots do not grow instead
of remaining dormant as it has been
contended they do, we will present the
experimenter with the trees so tested.
However, this is neither here nor there

for the purchaser may plant as we add

Nursery Co. their valued experiences

we live and expected get the fruits of
our labors and the profits of our
paintings. The eastern nurseries take
up their sale trees in November as do
the western people. but usually put
them on cold storage till delivery time,
in March or April. Western people
