held at the home of George Hanson,
February 9th. The day was pleasant
and a large company partook of
bountiiul dinner. One hundred and
slxty-five were present, coming from 5,
different townships, Excelsior, Green
field, Baraboo, DelLon and Fairfield.
Old acquaintance we've renewed,
and new ones made, making the day
pleasant social event. Several must
cal numbe's were rendered and old
time songs were sung.
A straw vote for president was taken,
i'm which woman suffrage was allowed,
resulting as follows: La Toilette, 80;
Roosevelt, 20; Taft, 10; Bryan, 3;
Wilson, 3; Prohibition-Earl Thomas,
5; and Otto Herwig, l.

that company, were present. Mr..
Morley gave talk on the action of
their company in regard to their move
into Baraboo, and'gave an idea of their
capital and scope of business. He ex-
tended an invitation to the Fairfield
association to join them, with the idea
that it would be a benefit to all con-
cerned.

PROBLEM FOR THE SCIENTIST
How May the Energy of the Sun, at
Present Largely Wasted, Be Util-
izel to Advantage?

The enormous energy which is con-
stantly poured out by the sun is al
most past the comprehension Of the
lay mind.
Measurements have shown that on a
clear sunny day the sun transmitted
to the earth energy which cores
pended to about 7,000-horsepower per
acre. At present all that is practical
ly wasted. Attempts have from time
to time been made to utilize this enor
nous supply of energy, but not with
any great measure of success. If peo-
pie only knew how to harness it they
could, at the expense of lowering the
temperature of the earth by degree
or so, obtain all the power necessary
to perform the work of the world. Only
about three-fifths of the energy sent to
the earth from the sun is appreciate
to the eye as light. If the sun were
twice as hot as it is, four-fifths would
be appreciable in that way, and If it
were still hotter the whole of the en-
ergy would affect the eye as light.
Radiant energy is not heat; that is,
the energy of the sun does not reach
the earth in the form of heat. 1t is
not heat at all until it falls on bodies
whose temperature can be raised 1t
might rather be called electricity; in
fact, it is form of electricity, for all
the methods used to detect and meas
ure radiant energy depend upon alb
sorbing it and ( transforming it into
heat.

"SKILLINGS' Mining and Market
Letter" has made its appearance
and is publication devoted to the
Mining industry particularly the
Duluth division. 1t includes those
mining men and mining interests
which have important Duluth con-
nections as we'll as those that
operate directly from the head of
Lake Superior in the mining
districts of this state, and other
states and territories and in Mexico.
1t is the purpose of the letter to ap-
pear weekly, containing news of
the mining companies that are
generally described as Duluth COM
panies, and giving attention from
time to time to all the recognized
mines and all legitimately conduct
ed prospects. Chas. Skillings, the
editor, is recognized as an authority
on matters pertaining to mining
and the letter will be valuable
one.

NEWSPAPERS express their opin-
ions in the open, others express
theirs to themselves or to chosen
few. Some read newspapers for
the typographical errors contained
therein others read each item as a

be. The editor is supposed to

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
(Nineteenth Article)
The Cost of Government in Minnesota

How much do the people of
Minnesota pay per capita for the
support of government, including
national, state and local? What
part is this sum of their total
wealth? Is the burden of taxation
in Minnesota increasing faster than
population or wealth! If so, is it
due to the extension of public
industries, or how is it to be ex-
planned? For what purposes are
the vast amounts of money spent
which are raised by taxation and
public loans? What is the present
outstanding debt of ali grades of
government in Minnesota, and
what is the annual interest charge
on such debt? Is current revenue
sufficient to meet ordinary expenses
or are some municipalities going
constantly deeper into debt in order
to pay interest on previous loans
and meet running expenses?
Especially, how do the several
counties, cities and villages COM
pare in these respect with one
another and with similar govern
mental units elsewhere?
In a democratic country, where
the final decision in all public
matters rests with the people, every
intelligent citizen ought to be able
to answer these questions; but until
very recently, no citizen of Mime
sofa could hope to find out so much
as the aggregate amount of tax
which he paid, to say nothing of
the purposes for which it was spent
or the amount of public debt rest
ing upon him. The first serious
attempt to furnish information on
this point was made in chapters
XXI and XIII of the report of
the Minnesota Tax Commission
for 1910. The interest aroused by

SATURDAY last theatre COM
pany depicted two gladiators in
battle with swords and shields.
Since then the small boys have
been having battles using as a
shield the covers from the garbage
cans. Instead of going to the
parents and having the children
restrained, some of the officials
locked several in Jail, proceeding
in which they overstepped their
authority. The parents OF the
boys at once raised a protest and
the boys were released by Judge
Jury as soon as he was appraised
of the happenings.
Comment on the procedure IS
unnecessary in face of the facts.
1t is our candid opinion that the
zeal displayed by the officers max
ing the capture could be used to
far better advantage in attending to
duties for which they were obligat-
ed. Six and seven year old boys
are not subjects for the lookup.
We do not for a moment think
that the child was criminal. The
ignomy of being in Jail is far
greater than the combined price OF
all the slop can covers in town.

AFTER bowling themselves
hoarse all winter and a part of last
fall for an extra session of the
legislature, the howlers now do not
want it. 1t was intended to dig a
hole for the governor. The
governor helped them out and now
the howlers are in the hole. 1t is
up to the legislature now to do
something and the chances are in
favor of something being accom-
plished. The Southern Minnesota
Development association is not in
favor of the extra session. This
feeling probably was brought about
by the reapportionment recon-
mendation in the call. Reap
portionment would help out the
north and this is fartherest from
the minds of these other end of the
state fellows.

MINNESOTA has more to offer to
the summer resorter than any state
in the Union. We have more and
prettier lakes than any state and
our climate is something to be re-
membered by every outer. A few
years more and Ely will be the
MEGA for thousands of tired city
people who will get close to nature
on Our beautiful lakes instead of
going to the artificial summer out
ing places of the east.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1912-06-07

that report was convincing evidence
that it met real public need.
The Tax Commission has there
fore resolved to continue the study
OF the cost of government in its re-
port for 1912. To that end, the
Commission has created a Depart
ment of Research and Statistics,
and has appointed as director of it
Professor E. V. Robinson, who has
charge of the courses in public
finance and taxation at the Univer
sity of Minnesota.
The starting point in any study
OF the cost of government must be
public expenditures. A private
citizen regulates his expenditures
according to his income, if he
means to avoid bankruptcy; but in
the case of governments, what is
appropriated by the Legislature and
other spending bodies determines
how much must be raised by taxa
ton. Not few citizens, indeed,
denounce high taxes yet constantly
urge their representatives in Con-
gress and the Legislature to sup
port bill and bill calling for increas-
ed appropriations. Such persons
apparently think it is possible for
the government to eat its cake and
keep it at the same time. The fact
is, however, that the government
has no magic fund of wealth at its
disposal, but must take from the
pockets of the people whatever it
determines to spend.
The next article will show
wherein the present investigation
is more extended than the one of
1910, and why this expansion was
necessary in order to make plain
the character of public expenditures
in Minnesota.

SEE MINNESOTA FIRST" is the
slogan adopted by the Minnesota
Editorial Association when it decid-

the state this year. In consequence
of this attitude the Association will
be on the ranges during the second
week in July and visit the principal
range towns and spend few days
in Duluth. Ely will be visited on
Monday and dinner will be had
here after which the party will see
our mines for a few hours. From
here they go to the Mesaba. As
the party is expected to comprise
about ESQ members this will mean
much to every town visited. Ely

musical numbers of the program.
The supervisor of music, Miss
Stringham, has certainly shown re-
suits for the excellent efforts she
put forth. 1t is to be regretted
that she will not return next year.
The browning event of the even
ing was the address by Rev. Robt.
Yost of Duluth on the Four
Square Man. The writer is lily
equipped and neither time nor
space will permit review of the
subject. We will say howevea that
it was one of the most brilliant and
instructive addresses ever heard in
Ely. His talk was particularly
calculated to leave food for refec-
ton on the part of the graduates
and those not graduates will not
find it amiss to think over the noble
thoughts conveyed by Rev. Yost.
The time allotted him was all too
short is the opinion of the majority
present. Director Moonan pres
ented the graduates with their
diplomas and in the course of this
operation delivered some very
pertinent truths in a few we'll
spoken words.
Today the annual picnic is on at
Sandy Point and the attendance
must be good as the streets of the
city seem almost deserted. The
High School Band is in attendance.

such valiant services this year all

part of the force will tomorrow
