MOOSETTES' ELECTION
EXCITING, BUT INVALID
Miss Carpenter Resigns and
Miss Rhodes Is Chosen to
Succeed Her.
BUT H0TCHKISS IS BOSS
Meantime, as Slogan of "the
Seven Against Rhodes" Our
Mary" Says: Cry Havoc and
Let Loose Dogs of War"

Did anybody say that the Moosettcs
were dead?
Well, they're not. At least they made a
noise very like live ones when they gath

Ing at the old state headquarters at No.
10 East 18th street, yesterday afternoon
They had an election, too. They elected
Miss Anne Rhodes to succeed Miss Alice
Carpenter as-well, nobody knew what
exactly. because nobody ever knew just
what Miss Carpenter was to be called.
Sometimes II was state leader, and
sometimes II was state organizer and
sometimes-as after the little row at
syracuse-it was just a worker in the
ranks. 1t all depended on how the
Moosettes felt at the moment about a
woman from Boston having so much
power In New York
Come to think of 1t. though. they didn't
have an election yesterday. They re-
membered that they had no power to
elect, because the state committee of the
National Progressive Party will name
Miss Carpenters successor at It's confer
ence at the Holland House to-day.
But they didn't remember that until the
end of their meeting, and they had a
lot OF real political excitement thinking
that they were having an election.
The election which wasn't an election
was quite a surprise party for the women.
Early in the day Miss Carpenter had a
conference with few Moosette leaders
about whom TO recommend Ito Will
lam b. Hotchkiss as her successor, she
having decided to resign to become ma
tional organizer under Miss Frances Kel-
Ter, and Miss Carpenter thought II would
be more democatic and Progressive to
have 1t decided at the afternoon meeting
But the afternoon meeting didn't take 1t
that way.
'Springing an election on US without
notice! / call such proceeding most UNI
democratic!' cried a Moosette I'm a feath-
cred hat.
Other Moosettes were on their feet all
over the ROOM and protests went pop
ping off from all quarters.

I'VE thought we were just coming here

skirt.
Miss Carpenter tried To pour oil on the
troubled waters by stating that she only
knew she was going TO resign day or
two ago. and then she got out some nice
little ballot boxes and ballots, and the
sight OF these did paclfy the mslcontcnts.
They looked so politicianlikc.

because Miss Carpenter resigned the chair
to Miss Rhodes, and Our Mary didn't
want her to.

want to, but / hope it will hurt you,

In rapid succession lot Of names were
offered Mrs. William Vanamec nominat-
ed Miss Rhodes
Others nominated were Miss Mary
Dreier, Mrs William Grant Brown and
Mrs. Helen Secor TONES, nut Mrs. VAN
amee's nominating speech so paralyzed
the hackers OF Miss Dreier and Mrs.
Brown and Mrs. TONES with it's ail-per-
vading eloquence that they hastily with
drew their candidates and sat down.
Well" said Miss Rhodes, briskly, AS
long as I'm the only-as long as there IS
only one candidate. We might as well
have a viva yoce vote"
All the women with the cute little bal
lots looked disappointed. Our Mary"
was so mad that she actually lost her
voice for a minute. But only for min
ute.
That's the most parliamentary thing
I ever heard Of" she exploded. Miss
Rhodes being voted on for Office when
she's I'm the chair. She ought to get right

Other angry women declared that the
proceedings were most improper"
But Miss Rhodes said soothingly:
.oWell. well; what could you expect when
they had no bylaws? When they had by

Amid considerable confusion the yeas

VOTERS-NO ENTHUSIASM

publican state ticket over the North

reached here at lis, very small
crowd greeting them at the depot, and
the applause was negligible quantity
Governor Eberhart was first intro
duced and dwelt aon the efficiency Of
the different departments Of the state,
said something about rural schools, and
said that the republican party should
be upheld, although Taft's name was
not mentioned. He evidently thought
that this was not as fertile territory as
in some points in southern Minnesota,
according to the St. Paul
Pioneer, the governor came out boldly
for Taft, saying that Taft admins. .
tration, like his own, was a decided
success, and that they both should be
reelected.
Railway Commissioner Elmquist
spoke of his department. and was fol
lowed by Congressional Nominee
Manahan, who made very good

Utica, N. Y, Oct. 31.-After long
illness, Vice President James School
craft Sherman died at his home in this
city at 9:42 o'clock last night Of uremic
poison caused by Bright's disease.
He had been sinking since early morn
ing and it was realized that death was
a question Of only few hours.
There was slight reaction shortly
after 7 O'Clock last night, caused by
apparent improvement of the kidneys,
but it did not prove real or lasting
and at best gave only temporary hope.
At 9 O'Clock the patients IS tempera-
ture rose to JOG. From that time his
condition became worse until the end.
Mr.. Sherman was unconscious when the
end came and had been in that condi-
tion for hours.

TAX OF RAIL ROADS
INVESTIGATION BY COMMISSION
SHOWS RAILROADS NOT TAXED,
HIGH AS OTHER PROPERTY

In each Of the two biennial reports
which have been issued by the state
tax commission attention is called Is
the fact that railroad property in Thu
state is not taxed as high as othe4
property.
The railroads at the present time,
in lieu Of all other taxes, pay into tho
state treasury annually per cent o8
their gross earnings in this state.
'[ Under wise provision Of our con-
stitution this tax cannot be diminished
or increased without the approval oE
tho voters Of the state.
Having become convinced that the
tax was too low the legislature at it,
last session passed an act submitting
the question Of increasing the tax from
4 per cent. to per cent to the voters
Of the state to be voted upon at the
election next Tuesday.
The tax commission believes that the
railroads, like other taxpayers, are en-
titled to fair treatment-no more and
no less, and that these taxes should not
be increased unless the facts warrant
it. In order therefore to make >assur-
ance doubly sure the commission, with
the able assistance Of Prof. E. V. Rob-
inson of the department Of economies
Of the State University, has just com
pleted another investigation Of tho
whole matter and find as a result that
the proposed increase is more than
justified by the facts.
-Four per cent Of the gross erning1
of railroads in Minnesota in 1911 [the
last year for which complete reports
are at hand, amounted to $3.50, ,760.25.
The investigation by the commission
shows that if all roads were assessed
and taxed the same as other property
they would be required to pay $5,011;
267.12; or $1,340, ,506.87 more than (
per cent Of their gross earnings. In
order to obtain this amount on tho
gross earnings basis it would be neces-
sary to raise from 5 to 5.46 per cent:
The foregoing figures are based upon
the states valuation Of the railroad
property with additions to date.
If the valuation allowed by the court
in the rate cases, which was con-
siderably higher than the state IS ap-
praisal, should be accepted as correct,
the tax assessed against the roads, On
the same basis other property would
be $5,430,964.18; and the rate Of gross
earnings tax necessary to bring that
amount into the state treasury would
be 5.92 per cent. -~'r: s. --~-----,..
If the valuation which the companies
have themselves placed upon their
property, which is still higher, should
be taken as the basis Of taxation, the
| rate Of tax on gross earnings would
greatly exceed any Of the above figur-
es.
It is clearly evident from these igur-
es that the proposed increase from 4
per cent to 5 per cent is fully justified.
Under our constitution a failure to
vote on the proposition is the same as
vote against it.
