In q democratic country, where the

questions; but until very recently, no
citizen of Minnesota 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 resting
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 Com
mission for 1910. The interest
aroused by that report was convincing
evidence that it met . resl public need.

resolved to continue the study Of the

The starting point in any study of
the cost of government must be public
expenditures. A private citizens reg
ulates his expenditures according to
his income, if he means to avoid bank
ruptcy; but in the case of governments,
what is appropriated by the legisla-
ture and other spending bodies deter
mines how much must be raised by
taxation. Not q few citizens, indeed,
denounce high taxes yet constantly
urge their representatives in Congress
and the Legislature to support bill
after bill calling for increased appro-
priation. Such persons apparently
think it 10 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 st its disposal, but must take
from the pockets Of the people whatever
1t determines to spend.
e. The cost of government is measu-
red by the taxes actually collected ra-
ther than by the amount levied.
In, Minnesota there is considerable
variation, from county to county, in the
per cent of taxes collected; and the
larger the proportion of uncollected
taxes is, the higher the rate Of taxa
ton must be made in order to produce
the necessary revenue. The effect

PATENT OWNERS MUST NOT HAVE MONOPOLY

Boston, July 3.-Owners of patents as well as owners of oil who monopoize interstate commerce by combination with others are included in the application of the Sherman ant-trust act, according to an opinion of the Massachusetts supreme judicial court handed down today in a suit involving the United States Machin- cry company.
 The decision finds that while the ques- tion of whether the United Shoe Machin- cry company is an Illegal combination in restraint of trade and has monopolzed trade and commerce between the several states" must be governed ultimately by decision of the United States supreme court yet no word or phrase in the Sher- man antitrust act reveals an intent to exempt the owners of patents from It's sweeping provisions against monopolistic combination.
 We are unable to perceive" continues the opinion, any underlying reason for supposng that by implication growing out of economic or business conditions such an exemption was intended
 The opinion relates to a suit brought by the United Shoe Machinery company to compel Euclid l. Chappelle to transfer certain patents under a contract of em- ployment.

STATE BOND FOUND
 VALUED AT S104O
Valuable Paper Issued in 1876 Discovered Recently
 in Mobile

Montgomery. July s.-(Speeial.) )-Thirty minutes of patient search on the part of State Treasurer John Purifoy this morn- ing revealed the fact tnat state bond. issued in 1876, and accidentally discovered among an old batch of papers in Mobile, is worth in round numbers to the owner s1s4o. The bond matured an- 1906, with 21 years of interest unpaia.
 The paper was sent to Secretary of tate Cyrus B. Brown by R. G. Bell of Mobile who informed MT. Brown that the bond had been accidentally discovered by a friend in looking over some old papers, thought to be worthless. MT. Bell wanted to know whether or not the bond had any value.
 The 5000 bond was taken to the state treasurer, who began a long and patient search for some record of the valuable paper. Finally, after examining old rec ords for 90 minutes, Treasurer Purifoy discovered that the bond was perfectly good, anu, furthermore. that there were 2l years of interest unpaid.
 The bond was issued in 1876, in the ads ministration of Governor Houston. The name of the owner is not known. for MT. Bell did not indicate in his letter to Mrs Brown to whom the bond belonged. 1t is assumed that the original owner died and that the bond was lost trace of, probably having been deposited along with other old papers thought to be worthless
