OCCUPATION TAX
TO Be Repealed
RETAILERS ASSOCIATION is PRE-
PAIRING NEW ORDINANCE
POLL TAX DOPPED, TOO
Cost More To Collect Than Revenue
Amounted tO-City Not Hard
Up, says Mayor.

'As soon as tho Retail Merchants
Association can outline an occupation
tax ordinance that suits them, we will
repeal the present ordinance" said
Mayor l.. j, Martin yesterday, The
present occupation tax ordinance has
not been enforced for some time, and
no attempt will be made to collect tho
tax provided for by the ordinance, in
the future, according to Mr.. Martin.
The occupation tax ordinance met
with storm Of protest from the bus
iness interests OF the city when the
first attempt was made TO enforce It,
The city officials then put the prop
osition up to the Retail Merchants
Association Of draughting an ordin-
ance that would be suitable to them.
repeating the old ordinance and re-
placing 1t with the new one. Fred
w Koppln. secretary Of the Mer-
chants Association. stated yesterday
that the merchants would decide on
an ordinance of this kind In the near
future.
The city Commissioners have also
repealed the poll tax ordinance, 1t
having been decided that the time
and trouble expended in collecting
the poll tax amounted to more than
the revenue derived, and for that rea-
son the ordinance was repealed. No
poll tax has been collected by the
city for some time.
While the revised occupation tax
ordinance will greatly increase the
city revenue. the absence Of such col
lections is not felt by the city at pres
ent, according to Mayor Martin, who
states that the city is in such financial
shape that an occupation tax is not
urgently needed at present.
THE present ordinance" said the
mayor, 'is unjust. according to the
claims Of those 1t affects, and for that
reason we are going to let the mer-
chants draft their own tax scale. No
one, as far as | know. is opposed to
an occupation tax, but the protest
arose over the amount of the tax on
comparative business"

enne 20 El Paso, a distance equal ia
that from New York 10 Chicago. The
cost of this Canine Real has been
from 5000 to $1,000 a mile. except on
the steepest grades, where the cost
was In few cases as high as $4,000
per mile, Why is the Southwest build
Ing It's roads so much cheaper than
the East? one reason Is that the
communities Of the West all pull to-
gether and instead OF spending time
In obtaining rights OF way by compll-
Gated processes and long legal argu-
ments, they go to work and build
roads Another reason Il that In the
Southwest convict labor is used at n
cost OF about 96 cents per day, so that
where the grades are easy. roads may
be built at as low cost as 800 per
mile.
From El Paso n good-roads touring
circle Of 10000 miles may be laid out
with the exception OF four unimproved
intervals which Will include the ma
tional parks, the national forests and
NAA' H'sA 9''li'i9 VI hiif AN''h@ NANA''
tains. Practically every foot Of the
uuimproved sections has been survey
ed. and Is known to the Geological
Survey and the Forest Service. and
their efforts are bent forward COM
plotting this 10000 mile touring circle.
There Is no serious engineering diff
Guilty In IT, and already the Forest
Service turns over one-quarter of the
proceeds in the counties in wMch
they lie to the good roads fund OF
those counties. Its hoped that with
the united efforts OF the Geological
Survey, the Forestry Service, the
states governments and the motor
and transportation companies this
10000 mile circle may be finished in
time to have fitting celebration along
with that Of the completed Panama
Canal. Evidently the good roads
movement is no longer simply fad,
but sign OF the determination Of the
communities OF the different parts of
this country to make good roads a
reality throughout all sections where
needed.

THE EVOLUTION
Of GOOD ROADS
THE BICyCIIsT WAS ONE OF TIE
PRIME MOVERS.
Then CAME Automobiles
Now the Farmers of the Southwest
Are Figuring II Out From Point
Of Dollars and Sense"

From the Manufacturers Record.
From being a fad, good roads have
become in the Southwest a public pas
sion on which all men are united, ir-
respective of party,
In the evolution Of the good roads
In that section, the advent OF the BIZ
cycle is mentioned as the first strong
factor for the betterment of the or
dinary and had wagon roads which
had been contended with The next
evangelist of the movement for good
roads was the motor car In land Of
no winter and little rain, of almost
perpetual sunshine and with tremen-
dOus distances off the railroad line,
the motor car became almost nee
essity The ranches and timber land
all lay more or less back of the trans
pOrtation lines, For Instance, TO 90
TO the cliff Dwellings Of the Jemez
by team takes the better part of a
day, whereas by motor the trip may
be begun at nine and the return made
TO the station easily before sundown.
The same may be said of the best
scenery of the Grand Canyon of Ari-
zona. The coming Of the tourist
cl'nched the evangelism Of good roads
as far as the Southwest was concern
ed. Further west, California realized
that the tourist traffic yearly lott
$l0,000,000 IN that state; San Joa-
quin County alone issued bonds for
nearly S2,000,000 for road improve
ments, and the whole state put the
stamp of public approval on the plan
TO issue $1S,00O,000 OF state bonds.
Colorado has voted $l0,00O,OOO of
bonds for state road improvements.
The cOntagion has spread to Arizona,
New Mexico, Colorado Wyoming and
Texas.
In Oklahoma, Texas Missouri, Ar
kansas and Louisiana the Good Roads
Associations have already been organ
lied, Nothing ever helped the cause
Of good roads in that section more
than the glut caused by the farmers
rushing their crops to market before
the fall rains, while the roads were
good. If the roads had been guaranteed
as good all the year round, the far
mers could have held back their crops
for better market conditions, the con-
rested traffic would have been pre-
vented and better total results would
have been obtained by both the ship
ICrs and the railroads
liut many of the states have taken
step further than the provision for
roOd roads for farmers, Texas, New
Mexico, Colorado and Wyoming came
together in plan to construct a great
f"cnic highway and already 1000
miles Of the Canine Real. or Royal

Miss Edith "A. Kassing, for ten
years connected with the Red Wing
training school, testified in behalf of
Superintendent Frank A. Whittier in
the Board Of Control investigation
Tuesday, emphatically contradict
ing the testimony given by several
girls who have described the punish
ment they received while at the train
ing school. Miss Kassing declared
positively that she never allowed a
girl to receive more than twenty five
blows when being punished, had new
er allowed a girl to be punished with
her clothes off, that no man was ever
present when punishment was inflict-
ed on a girl, that punishment had
never been inflicted with a harness
strap or tug, and that punishment
had never been inflicted from motives
of revenge, but only for the purpose
Of maintaining discipline. Punish
ment always ceased, she said, as
soon as girl exhibited a repentant
spirit, and seldom were more than
eight or ten blows given. Punishment
was always with a ruler, slipper or
a piece Of rubber hose She denied
that Margaret Burns had ever been
punished on the bare body.
The item above is from the Twin
City dailies and relates part of the
testimony given by Miss Kassing in
the hearing for the removal Of Super
intendent Whittier Of the state train
ing school at Red Wing. Miss Kass-
ing is the eldest daughter Of T. Kass-
ing Of this city and her evidence
would be very convincing to jury
composed Of those who know her
here. Waseca Herald.
