OF the commerce committee of the

that il would probably carry between
three and FIVE millions more than the
house bill. this increase being made
necessary through the Recommended
lions of the engineer board Of the

not before the rivers and harbors
committee of the house.
There have been presented To the
committee Of the senate nearly ninety

said MIR Elkins, covering the Wild
est possible range of river and har-
hor improvements.
~ have felt, since my advent ON
the commerce committee. that there
should be an annual river and har-
Dor bill ana that il should take its
place in national legislation just as
amy other supply bill. The sporadic
appropriations Of the past for water
way improvements very naturally gave
rise to the appellation pork barrel'
attached To the river and harbor bill.
Misnomer as il is. it still has a GER

MINNESOTA HAS
BIG CASH SURPLUS
So Much Money in State Treasury
That Taxes May Be Discontinued
How It Was Done.

Citizens of Minnesota may not be
called upon to pay taxes next year. At
present the treasury of the state is
groaning under the burden of surplus
which has never been duplicated.
On October l there will be nearly
$4,O0O,OO0 in the state treasury. Oc-
tober 1, 1909, there was approximately
100000 in the treasury.
The usual amount of money in the
states cash box has come about
through the successful settlements of
cases which have netted the common
wealth large sums of money. The
largest of these items came from the
settlement of the lumber cases, the
gross earning tax cases, the Kennedy
inheritance tax case, and others.
Not only have large sums of money
come into the treasury, but they will
result in constantly, augmenting
streams of gold in the direction of the
states Golfers SO that Minnesota bids
fair to become state unique in the
history of taxation-a state that may
find it not necessary to tax its people
1 cent for the general maintenance of
state government.
