Solons Must Lock Up The
Big Strong Box
TOO RAPID is THE GAIT
Reason Why GovernorAppointe
Economy Commission; Must
Cut Expenses
Especial to The Free rress.l


ST Paul, February S.-When the
legislature came together last winter
the older members said, This has
gore far enough. Il has got to stop
We must positively not spend another
cent: the reople won't stand for IL.
The Younger members didn't say that.
What they said was. We are going to
cut down expenses. This thing has
gene too FAR.
Lid the Legislature cut down ex-
prnsos? Did it hold the total to the
figure Of the previous year? Not ex'
uctly. it broke the records. II broke
the record for the rate of state
taxation and II broke the record
tor the total levied.
Back In 1902.
Why. back In 1902 the state was
spending $3.70O.000 a year for run
ming expenses and the people said,
TO stop. 60 they established, among
other things, the board of control.
There is no question whatever that
the board of control Is an efficient
Lody. Ii Keeps down expenses, II
figures costs. It looks ahead. Still
the board of control is spending
twice as much now as Il did ten
years ago for the maintenance of the
state institutions. And II did not
come WITHIN n million dollars of
getting whist II asked from the last
legislature at that.
Increased the Gross Earnings tax,
In the interval since 1902 we have
twice increased the rate OF railroad
taxation. In 1902 the railroads were
contributing a million and half
10 the state budget-$1 $4,000 to give
a closer hgure. IN. 1879 the railroads
furnished s3.TOG,OOO of the state
revenue. Fer the current year the
estimate OF railroad taxation is 81
200. zoo.
And Notwithstanding that, the levy
this wear is the largest on record
ard the highest rate. just after tho
people elected legislature impress
I'd with the stupendous increase in
taxes and the necessity OF cutting
down expenses.
More Money Collected.
That Is not all. Since 1902 when
state expenses had gone as far as
ever ii should. the state has devised
other forms of taxation not then In
force. The income tax Is one which
is bringing a respectable addition &c

ASSOCIATED Press Dispatch.1
st. Louis, February 3.-The belief
that the "inen and millions" move
ment which was formally put afoot
by the disciples of Christ church
will lead to Characterization Of the
world, was expressed by r. A. Long,
G. Kansas City lumberman,. who
started the movement with a million
dollar donation. He spoke TO the
committee of one hundred composed
of missionaries, college presidents
and church workers from all parts

for their campaign would create
rivalry among other churches which
would lead to astounding missionary
results. -.
