Minneapolis and st. Paul is typical Of
what will constantly recur under the
eastman Law. Minneapolis is ten
miles nearer to three-fourths of the
area of the State, and ten miles
farther from the other fourth than St.
Paul. Under the eastman Law Min
neapolis is entitled to ten-mile rate
advantage for the three-fourths, and
st. Paul to similar advantage for
the one-fourth.
But the st. Paul Association of Com
merce wants Minneapolis and st. Paul
declared one point with an identical
rate. This was the plan of the rail
roads under the old system of rate
making. But what was the eastman
Law passed for? To root out that old
system and introduce new principle
of distance as the sole basis of rates.
1t was to be as simple as a passen-
gers paying two cents mile. But it
doesn't work. Freight and passengers
are different. ThesCashman Law won't
work out as intended. This was what
the railroads and the shippers con-
tended when the bill was under con-
sideration. The injustice of certain
interior rates, which should have been
effectively dealt with by the State
Railroad Commission, were the real
inspiration Of the eastman Law. The
cure seems likely to prove worse than
the Minneapolis Journal.

fund from the proceeds of their state
somewhat less than $5,000,000. Wis
consin is in much the same class.
Michigan, with nearly 100000 acres,
all gone, has nearly 100000 from
them. Illinois, with about as many
acres to dispose of as Iowa, and none
left, has paltry million from them in
her treasury.
Turn to Minnesota. OF the imperial
domain of more than 100000 acres
granted to her, she still has over
1000, 900 acres, and those of the rich
est; and what she has sold has yielded
her the sum of $50 ,OOO, 900 in the form
of permanent fund, upon which she
receives an average Of per cent in
terest.
Equally interesting is the record OF
the states which have been wise
enough to profit by her example.
North Dakota, with total acreage of
5000 900, of which more than half re-
mains unsold, has 100000 in her
treasury-over twice as much as Iowa
or Wisconsin, which have stripped
themselves bare Of far larger heri-
tage. South Dakota has done even
better, for with 100000 acres left Of
her original 100000, she has fund
of $12,000,000.
Minnesota expects $1,O0O,000 this
year, merely from her ore royalties On
land seased before the repeal of the
royalty law Auditors estimates OF
her ultimate receipts from the sale OF
all lands have steadily mounted, until
now the figure is $2O0,O00,O00. Each
of the Dakotas looks forward to to-
tai fund of $50,00O,000.

THE EASTMAN VISION FADING

. HE DISTURBANCE over the
eastman distance tariff law
= is what might have been ex-
pected from such crude piece Of le-
gislation. The law purports to be very
simple. 1t provides that railroads
shall charge so much mile for carry
ing freight. So far so good. It would
be simple, if there were only one rail-
road and one town.
But there are several railroads and
several towns of varying degrees of
strength as business pullers. 1t is to
the interest of the State that all these
railroads and towns be kept going.
Hence Immediately there is found a
difficulty in interpreting the eastman
law. Shall railroad with the longer
haul to competitive point be put out
of business? Shall a town with a
longer haul from a distributing point
be suppressed?
Under the old system no such pre-
sumption was permitted in either
case. The weaker railroad was pro-
tected somehow. The weaker town got
its chance to live. Strictly construed,
the eastman Law cannot take into
consideration any of these things. 1t
must apply the memorable. charge, SO
much for SO many miles, and no rate
for one mile in one direction under
the charge for one mile in another di-
rection.

THRIFTY MINNESOTA

Editorial in the New York Evening
Post.
A LITTLE MORE than fifty years
n ago a Constitutional conven-
n ton met in st. Paul to frame
an instrument of government for the
the new state of Minnesota. 1t was
long before the word conservation"
had become political shibboleth, but
the leaders of the convention made
shift to advocate such policy with
out it. Through the influence, among
others, of Alexander Ramsey, first
governor of the territory, and after
wards war governor of the state, a
provision was inserted in the Consti-
tuition establishing a central fund
from the proceeds of the sale of pub
lie lands granted by the United States
for the use of schools. The income
from this fand was to be distributed
among the townships in proportion
to the number of pupils they had be-
tween the ages of five and twenty-one.
No land was to be disposed of except
by public sale. This was the initial
step in policy of public thrift which
it would be hard to parallel, in our
own history at least.
By itself, however, it would have
been altogether insufficient to attain
the truly magnificent results which
have been the reward of the effort
