For Full Taxation.

st. Paul-The state tax commission
is preparing for campaign Of educa-
ton with the purpose in view of Sc
curing a more nearly complete listing
of the property of the state for taxa
ton. A pamphlet is being prepared
containing all of the tax laws, includ-
Ing those in the revised laws and the
session laws of 1905 and 1907, togeth-
er with the court decisions bearing on
these laws. These pamphlets will be
prepared primarily for the use of the
assessors and the other local taxation
officials.
The pamphlets will probably be is
sued early in the spring, and during
March and April after the assessors
have been elected the board intends
to make a tour of the state for the
purpose of comforting with the as
SCISSORS about their work. This will
be done during March and April be-
fore the assessors begin their work.

Matter Is Urgent.

"This matter of transportation is
most urgent one. People think there
is no limit to what the railroads can
do. There is a very present limit to
many railroads in the volume of bust
ness we have to do. 1t takes money to
run railroads. There is want of
money in every center. Where the
business has grown the fastest there
the want is greatest. Traffic is grow
ing five times as fast as railroad mile
age. We might as well put railroad
improvement out of the question"
Hundreds of millions of dollars, it is
admitted, would be saved annually by
the substitution of water transporta-
ton for the present railroad transpor-
tation between the central west and
the seashore. Statistics gathered
from all quarters of the United States
demonstrate that water carriage OF
freight costs less than one-siXth that
for railroad transportation. The latest
schedules place the freight charge a
bushel of wheat from Chicago to New
York at 1920 cents, as against 5.51
cents by lake and canal. The cost
from st. Louis to New Orleans by
river is 4.25 cents, as against 11.6
cents by rail between st. Louis and
New York.
Despite this very great difference in
cost the tonnage of the Mississippi
from st. Louis to it's mouth has stead
lily decreased since 1880. In that year
the number of vessels arriving there
was 1852. The total tonnage, receipts
and shipments amounted to 81, 13O,525.
In 1890 the number of vessels arriving
was 3,201, and the tonnage was 1881
It's. In 1900 the number of vessels
fell to 2,217 and the tonnage to S12,-
1856. At the present time st. Louis
Mississippi tonnage is only 100000.
While the argument is made by the
champions of the inland waterway
project that river regulation is rate
regulation and that the improvement
of the great waterways of the coun-
try will do more to regulate freight
charges than all the interstate COM
merce laws that can be enacted prac-
teal railroad men declare that fur
Their lowering of railroad freight rates
is really impracticable. They point
out that with the great rail systems of
the country operating to their fullest
capacity they are earning only a fair
return on the capital invested. Fur
Their reduction in railroad charges they
maintain, cannot be made while the
outlay for maintenance and operation
remains at the present figure.

MINNESOTA NEWS
Interesting Items Gathered in the
GOpher State
Butter Output.

st. Peter-The butter output Of
Minnesota has almost doubled in if
teen years, and the total expense Of
manufacture is less than it was then.
The development of the creamery sys-
tenn has increased the capacity of
plants and led to greater economy.
Figures compiled by w. w. Wall,
secretary of the state dairy and food
commission, make an interesting
comparison between the creamery out
put Of 1889 and of 1904, the last year
for which there are complete records.
The butter output of creameries in
1889 was 44,007,933 pounds, and the
cost of manufacture to the creameries
was 1890, 1895, or 81 cents pound.
In 1904 the total output was 1885,
459 pounds, and the expense was only
$8S4,392.94, or less than in 1889. 1t
amounted to only IL cents pound.
This saving went into the pockets
Of the farmers who supplied the
creameries, and they also gained by
the higher price secured for Mime
sofa butter in the eastern markets.
In 1889 creamery patrons were paid
for milk the sum of $6,959, 914.55, and
the average price paid for butter fat
was IT'S cents pound. In 1904 the
total paid to patrons was $12,994,-
460.55, and the average paid for but
ter fat was 1914 cents a pound.

est outlay for artificial improvement
of the Mississippi would be neces-
sary. The distance between those two
points is 764 miles. All of the big en-
cheering feats will have to be &C.
complished within that territory. If
a stable channel of IA feet can be
maintained in that stretch engineers
declare that the seaboard will no

delta, but will actually stretch 1,600
miles inland to the shore of Lake
Michigan.

merce of the world. 1t is confidently
asserted that with the 14-foot water
highway through the length of the
Mississippi valley the internal COM

immensely increased. Hundreds of

BURGLARS TORTURE OLD WOMAN
Burn, Beat and Kick Her Until She Is

Rochester, N Y, Nov. 12.-Burglars
on Friday night broke into the resi-
dence of Mrs. Stella Mauthner, an
aged woman who lives alone near the
state road in the town of Perinton,
and subjected her to terrible tortures
in an effort to force her to reveal her

by neighbors and is not expected to
recover.
Two men forced an entrance to her
house at midnight. They seized the
aged woman, bound her to chair and
held lighted newspapers close to her
eyes, allowing the flames to burn her
hands and arms. Then they ransacked
the house and finding only four dol
lars, they vented their rage by beat
ing the woman and kicking her into
insenSibility.

Of grain could not be moved last year
because of the railway congestion, and
the west suffered coal famine be.
cause cars were not available and the
limit of transportation had been
reached in other ways.
James j. Hill has pointed out that
not only haO the limit been reached in
the movement of freight, but even
should cars, locomotives and tracks
be supplied, there is now and is bound
to be for years to come dearth Of
terminal facilities. Mr.. Hill has esti-
mated that the cost of constructing
sufficient railway lines to meet the i'm
mediate demands for moving the COM
merce of the country would require an
outlay of $5,0OO,000,O00. This esti-
mate, he declares, gives little or no
consideration to the future. Mr. Har
riman a short time since announced
that in order to meet transportation
requirements the gauge of the railways
of the country and the rolling stock
would have to be doubled.
Some time ago." Mr.. Hill said, 81
asked real estate man what it would
cost to get tier of blocks, one of the
narrowest, from the Harlem river to
Thirty-third street, New York. He
came back in a week and said that
$3.50, 100000 would not buy it. That
means that for terminals alone it
would cost 100000 a mile for every
mile from Chicago to New York be-
fore the line was built. The railroads
can't pay rent on such high-priced
terminal property.
