Governor Eberhart, c. G..
Schulz, state superintendent of
public instruction, and President
Vincent of the State University have
approved the plan of the director
of the State Art Society to show in
various Minnesota cities and towns
an exhibit of fine and industrial
art for the purpose of illustrating
to the people how closely art is re-
lated to their everyday business and
home life, and have stated their in
tentions to cooperate with the Art
Society in every possible way to
make this unusual project success
full. With these various depart
ments of the state working togeth-
er it is possible that more Mime
sotans will be benefited by the
work of the Art Society in the COM
ing winter than have been reached
by it in the nine years since the
society was created by legislative
act. That this is a worthwhile
project, promising good to the peo-
pie themselves as well as to the
state at large, is attested by the

TAXATION IN MINNESOTA
THE FOLLOWING IS ONE OF SERIES OF ARTICLES PUBLISHED
BY REQUEST OF THE MINNESOTA TAX COMMISSION
CRITICISM OR SUGGESTION IS CORDIALLY INVITED
(Forty-hrst Article)
Conclusion

penditure is small. Assessment
and rate are merely the means of
raising the money to be expended,
and of determining how much each
individual shall contribute for that
purpose. But an equality of taxa
ton as between the individual tax
payers depends entirely upon the
fairness of the assessment. The
only remedy for high taxation is a
reduction in public expenditures;
the remedy for unfair taxation is a
fair and equitable assessment.
The commission acknowledges
its indebtedness to the newspapers
of the state for their cordial and
unselfish assistance in the publica-
ton of these articles. Although
their publication has not been as
productive of as much criticism
suggestion, and discussion as was
expected the commission feels that
some public good has been &C.
complished. Whatever of good
there may be, it is largely to the
press of the state that the credit is
due. Without the least compensa-
ton and with some inconvenience
to themselves these newspapers
have given their space literally to
the work of enlightening their
readers upon the perplexing and
little understood system of taxation
i'll Minnesota. 49,.
The commission W i'll publish the
entire series in pamphlet form for
free general circulation, and will
be pleased to distribute them to
those who by letter or in person
may so request.

ABOLISH CUP
Common Public Drinking Cup
Must Go

The secretary of the treasury has
disposed of the common drinking
cup. He has issued an order di-
recting that it be abolished from all
trains, boats and other conveyances
doing an interstate business and
that it be removed from depots and
waiting rooms of common carriers.
The order constitutes an amend
ment to the interstate quarantine
regulations and is in the interest of
the public health. The attorneys
of the department sustain the
secretary in the contention that he
has legal right to issue the ruling
and that it will be enforceable.
Probably there will be no serious
protest from any source, and the
common drinking cup, against
which vigorous crusade has been
waged for years, will disappear not
only from railway trains and
depots, but later from all public
places, says the Pioneer Press.
The directness and effectiveness
with which the federal authorities
can act on questions involving the
interest of all the people is shown
in the ruling of the secretary of the
treasury. At one stroke he accom-
plishes much the same as might be
expected from the seperate action
of forty-eight legislatures. Already
twenty-six states had enacted laws
against the use of common drink
ing cups. There is little dispute
as to the importance of similar
action in all states, although it
probably would be much delayed
in some.
The secretary's order shows the
difference between federal and state
action in regard to nationwide
problems. 1t furnishes a good ex-
ample of the comparative of eff
fectiveness of the method proposed
by the progressive party for deal
ing with the trust problem and that
proposed by those who would let
each state do its own regulating
There is force in the argument that
the rights of states should not be
usurped by the federal authority
But, if there is anything to be done
which involves any and in which
all are interested alike, the speedy
and effective way to accomplish re-
suits is through united federal
effort.

THE election is over. The coun-
try has gone Democratic and this
party will have free rein to do as
they have been promising. The
reforms in every branch of the
government promised by the Demo-
Gratis can now be put in force and
the people will watch the proceed
ings and help all in their power to
make them successful.
The victory was the most COM
plete of any ever fought IN this
country. The people took the
Republican and Bull Moose candi-
dates at their word and repudiated
both in unmistakable words.
Roosevelt and Taft INDUCED in a
most disreputable war of words
and the voters took them seriously.
The statements of each branded
the other as an unfit man for the
place.
Every state in the union was
keen for a change. 1t is to be
hoped the change will be to their
liking. The country is in the
most fourishing condition at pres.
ent. Everybody will now dig in
and see that it stays in such
condition.
1t is the opinion of many that
the Third party is now a thing OF
the past and has run its course the
same as did the Free Silver,
Populist and other upstairs that
have infested the American political
world. Others are of the opinion
that the Republican party is dead
one. History however proves that
the Republican and Democratic
parties are about all the political
divisions this country can stand
and that these parties will live.

With this issue the series of
articles upon taxation which the
tax commission has been publishing
in this journal for the past ten
months will be discontinued for the
present. The commission has been
deeply impressed with the fact that
Notwithstanding the widespread
complaints of the unfairness and
injustice of the existing method OF
taxation, comparatively few tax
payers have taken the trouble to
familiarize themselves with the
details of those methods, and fewer
still have devoted much thought or
study. as to how those methods,
may be best improved.
The articles have been prepared
and published in the hope that,
brief as they necessarily are, they
would to some extent familiarize
the public with the details of the
existing system and thereby
stimulate that discussion and con-
sideration which must always pre-
cede any legislation tending to a
reform or improvement of the
system. They have been mainly
devoted to the general property
tax which comes nearest to and
directly affects all of the people,
and which is based upon the as
sessed valuation of all property
owned by each individual.
The amount of taxes collected
does not depend upon the amount
of the assessment of property, nor
upon the rate of taxation. Taxes
are high when and where the ex-
penditure for public purposes is
large; they are low when such ex-
