In an opinion by Judge Molyneaux
of the Hennepin county district
court sustaining the validity of the
redlight abatement law, enacted at
the last session of the legislature,
his only intimation that any phase
of the act was invalid was that re-
1ating to the penalization of property
where the owner was unaware that
the property was used for an illegal
purpose. The judge said, II do not
think that the law contemplates the
closing of property of person who
is innocent.'' If the law is not sus-
tanned by the higher court it will be
owing to the failure to provide for
notice to innocent owners. -.-.

Thus far the state campaign is
going on beautifully to suitthe steel
trust. Henry Rines, their candidate
for state auditor, has no opposition
and Furthermore has the solid back
ing of the alleged progressive ele-
ment in the state. -Slayton Gazette.
The usually fair-minded, candid
and outspoken editor of the Gazette
does Mr.. Rines an Injustice. There
is no man in public life in this state
today who is freer from corporation
control than Henry Rines. Those
who know Mr.. Rines will not dispute
the truth of this assertion.
That the steel trust NEEDLES in
Minnesota politics is news to us.
Duluth is, the Minnesota home Of
the steel trust, and yet the news
papers of that city have not a kind
word to say of Mr.. Rines.. The
leading newspaper of Duluth has
commented unfavorably on his can
didacy and, as we view it, has been
decidedly unfair in it's criticisms of
him.
In the legislature Mr.. Rines did
vote against the imposition of ton
mage tax on iron ore, and he was
right. The time may come when,
in order to compel the iron proper
ties to bear their just proportion Of
state taxes, a tonnage tax may bel
necessary, but that time has not yet
arrived. We do not propose, how.
ever, to discuss the merits or de-
merits of a tonnage tax. We are
we'll aware of the fact that strong
arguments can be advanced pro and
con. Personally, under present con-
ditions, we believe the iron proper
ties are paying their fair proportion
of state taxes. Conditions may
change, and at some future time a |
tonnage tax may be justifable and
necessary. .~.
The writer has known Mr.. Rines
for many years and we know him to
be strictly honest and honorable in
all his dealings. He was an excellent
and painstaking county auditor.
He is we'll Informed on all matters
pertaining to taxation and is thor

There are few if any in the state
