AN EQUITABLE CORPORATION TAX.

The corporations tax is added to the tariff
bill in order to raise more revenue and is ne
cessary because the schedules have been placed
SO high that they not revenue-producing.
Not all corporations get the benefit of these
high schedules and the only equitable direct
tax would be one levied on the industries which
receive the benefit of high tariff protection.
Persons corporations engaged in a bust
ness protected from foreign competition by a
high tariff should pay high income tax those
protected by low schedule should pay lower
income tax, but we cannot see the justice of
putting tax an industry which receives no
protection from the tariff just because it hap
pens to be conducted by a corporation instead
of by an individual
1t might not be possible to work out these
principles in actual law, but they contain the
only equitable income tax which could be used
in connection with tariff tax.

ADVISES YOUNG GIRLS.

The danger attendant upon young girls go
ing to large cities alone in search of work is
very apparent to Commissioner of Labor Nc
Even, and he will cause notices advising
against this practice posted in every railroad
station in Minnesota. The notices will be in
the form of large posters signed by W. E. Nc
Even, commissioner of labor, and by Mrs Perry
Starkweather, assistant commissioners and head
of the woman's department. The notices will
read as follows:
Do not go to the large cities for work unless
you are compelled to.
If you must go, write at least two weeks in
advance to the Woman's Department Bureau
of Labor, St. Paul, or to the young Womens
Christian association in the city where you
want to work.
They will obtain for you such position
you ask, tell you about wages, boarding places
and whatever you want to know.
Two days before you leave home, write
again and tell the day and hour when your
your train will arrive and responsible woman
will meet you at station and take you safely
Do not ask questions of strangers nor take
advice from them.
Ask a uniformed railway official or police
men.
In speaking of the matter the labor com
missioner said:
ct is a moral question entirely and one
that we have thought necessary to take up. We
are glad to help girls finding places through
onr state free employment bureau, and
place them readily in domestic service There
is scarcity in that line of work, but the factor
les have plenty of help and it is mistake for
girls to come in from the country without some
to look after them, merely looking for work.
So many sad cases have come to our attention,
it seems necessary to issue some kind of warn
ing

It is surprising that aristocratic England
should have outrun the United States in the
enactment of an income tax and progressive IN
heritance tax yet such is the case. The justice
of such taxes is generally recognized, and they
fall on those who are most able to pay. A man
recently died in England with fortune as large
as that of the late HI. III. Rogers, and the estate
will pay tax of 100000. while the inherit
ance tax paid by the estate of Ell. Ell. Rogers will
be only something over half million. From
these very large fortunes, the English demand
20 per cent as the states share, small enough
fee for the service it performs in safeguarding
the estate while the 1egatee receives 80 per cent
for which he performed no service whatever.
No crushed rock for the building of roads
will be hauled by the railroads, such service
would be in violation of the anti-pass law, ac-
cordng to ruling of Acknowledgement Simp-z
son. The railroads offered to haul rock free a
distance of rs miles from the state crusher at
St. Cloud, and Stevens county expected to get
some of the rock this way. The state anti-pass
law, like many other laws passed at the de-
mands of the people, piece ofill-consider
ed legislation The Legislature passed it grudg-.
ingly, and tried to make it so stringent that it
would be repealed, and the unnecessary and
unjust restrictions repeatedly coming to
light. The railroads prohibited from doing
any free service for building up the country
service that would ultimately result to the
benefit of the railroads. One of the most fool
ish restrictions of all is the cutting off of con-
cessions to bona fde land agents, who do so
much both for the railroads and for developing
the country. It's time we had more members
of the legislature and in congress who would
take notice of the demands of the people, and
then conscientiously try to put those wishes
into reasonable law.

SATURDAY, JULY 10, 1909.

Minnesota is to be congratulated on the
law of this state which has materially reduced
the carnage on the Fourth of July The cannon
cracker and the dynamite cane are thing of
the past in this state and while other sections
of the country reported fatalities and serious
accidents in large number, Minnesota escaped
with few serious injuries.
Senator Clapp made vigorous speech in
the Senate against the proposed corporation tax
of two per cent. He considered it direct slap
at the Roosevelt policies because it provides
that the officers of the government in admins
tering the tax law shall carefully refrain from
examining into the inner workings of the
poration; and more than this the proposed bill
apparently gives express recognition to the
right of existence of the so-called holding
panes, of the most effective devices yet
worked out for the monopolization of control of
many corporations by small group of capital
lists. These objections valid, but the plan
has still more serious defects

Anent the fact that Cole Younger is deliv-
ering lectures the ST. Louis Globe Democrat in
dulges in a lengthy editorial. Younger COM
plains because the fine writer's and the NOV
ing-pictures make him better than he was, and
he has taken to the lecture platform to correct
the error He is forever condemned in the
nicholodeon to appear leading foray and with
face foremost to his enemies representing law
and order, and now the old man thinks he should
be shown in retreat or wearing stripes because
he did retreat and did wear stripes. The Globe
Democrat thinks that Younger is always con-
demned to be represented a dare devil be-
cause that best serves the purposes of the NOV
ing picture man, and in describing him, the
editor makes the following interesting obser-
walton, which will be revelation to Mime
sOtans:-
Younger seems to have got, out of such a
life as he led for nearly score of yeas, about
all the satisfaction there is in it, which is-the
joy of fighting. They will tell you at North
field, Minn where his fighting career ended,
that when he commanded the squad which
guarded the bank door while Jesse James was
inside numbering the surprised cashier, he
laughed in wild exultation, under the con-
centrated fire of dozen men, to which he re-
piled at every sight of head or hand behind a
door or lattice. 1t was in covering the retreat
of the others out of Northfield, still singing,
laughing and shooting, that Younger was cap
tured. Nothing but this dare deviltry saved
him from mob vengeance and him final
pardon. They were mostly Mortimer, and had
recollections of men of his kind in the history
of their own blood He looked to them like
rencarnation of an old Berseke."
We now know why Younger pardoned
