COMMERCIAL CLUB
Meets Tuesday Evening and
Does Much Business.

At the meeting of the CONNER.
cial Club Tuesday evening con.
siderable business of importance
to this section came up and much
of it was disposed of after due dis
custom. A large number of the
members were present. The meet
ing was presided over by President
Murphy.
A communication from the
Eveleth Commercial Club regard
ing the division of the commits.
sioner districts of the ranges was
brought up and discussed. It was
decided that the president and sec.
rotary confer with Commissioner
McMahan on the matter and pre-
sent their conclusions to the
Eveleth Club as the action of the
Ely club. A communication from
Senator Ellwell on new road law
was also referred to the same.
F. B. James reported on the mat
ter of establishing the Stoney road
as state highway and told of his
talks with the state highway com.
mission on the subject. It was the
desire of the state commission that

that is wanted, why not make it
tonnage tax that will apply to
every section of the state and not
single out certain communities
and counties upon which to levy
the sameg AS an amendment he
would suggest:
First: That the principle of an
output tax on mine products or
products that are taken from the
soil should be made general
throughout the whole state, and
extended to every mine, gravel
bed, stone quarry, brick or tile
clay beds (Of such a character
that nature does not replace or
reproduce them annually or with
in a reasonable length of time. }
Second: That the revenues re-
ceived from such an output tax
each year should be distributed
in the same proportion between
local communities, counties and
the state as the general taxes are
distributed. In this way, wheth-
er the output tax comes from the
clay beds of the Union Tile COM
pany's beds near Red Wing, or
from the Blue Earth or Stearns
county stone quarries, or from
the Hennepin and Ramsey county
sand and gravel pits, or from the
st. Louis, Itasca or Aitkin or
Crow Wing iron mines, the local
township or, village community
would receive their proportion of
the same, as on other taxes, with
which to take care Of local needs.
the county their share and the
state their share.
Third: That in cases like on the
producing iron mines, the present
annual ad. valorem tax is based
on a certain number of tons that
the mine company or operator
who the annual output tax should
receive credit on that years ad
valorem tax to the extent on an
equal number of tons on which
they are required to pay the out
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1917-03-02

put tax. This would eliminate
double taxation and could be car
ried out quite literally to do
away with the burden of the ad
valorem tax as in many localities
Of the state it is not the intention
of the local officers to raise any
more money from taxation than
is needed to take care of the or
binary expenses of the locality.
AS an explanation to the above
suggestions the principle involved
in the so-called super-tax or out
put tax on mine products removed
from the earth, and which will
not come back, the bulk of such
taxes should be used to improve
the community from which these
natural products are taken in
such a way that the community
would be more self-sustaining
and better able to carry on and
take care of their institutions
after the mines are worked out.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1917-03-02

the county commissioners of the
counties through which the road is
to pass first by resolution should
designate the same as a state high
way. If this failed a petition sign
ed by ten residents could have the
matter brought up officially. The
designation sought would put the
road under the supervision of the
state and would be in line for state
aid. The committee consisting of
Geo. L. Brozich, F. B. James and
J. A. Harri was continued to look
into the matter.
The matter of the establishment
of commercial department at the
State University which the club
was asked to endorse was put into
the hands of special committee
consisting of H. E. White, A. J.
Thomas and Peter Schaefer to look
the matter up and report at the
next meeting.
Secretary Merdink reported on
the work of the delegates before
the legislature in the matter of the
revisions of the game laws as pro-
posed by the legislative committee
Geo. 7. Ayres also made a report
on the work of the delegation sent
from here to protest the passage of
the tonnage tax measure. Both
reports were we'll received.
The social center or community
center proposition was given a
definite impetus by the appoint
ment of committee to take actual
steps towards its. establishment.
In another column will be found
an item on the subject.
After disposing of number of
bills against the club by ordering
their payment, the meeting adj
journed.

AL. KCLSTAD DEAD
Passes After Lingering Illness
Of More Than a Year.

Albert Kolstad breathed his last
Tuesday evening after an illness
which dated back to over a year.
He died of cancer of the stomach
after having exhausted all methods
of treatment. During his illness
he has visited Chicago, Rochester,
Two Harbors and other places in
the hope of finding relief. Up to
the last he was confident OF a re-
spite from the dread ailment but it
was not to be. During the past
few weeks he has suffered untold
agonies and death was welcome
relief from his sufferings.
Albert Kolstad was born in
Christiana, Norway, 40 years ago.
He came to this country with his

The Proctor City team was com
paratively easy for the Ely City
basket ball shooters in the game
here Saturday evening. A large
attendance of enthusiastic fans
marked the game and several fine
plays were pulled off on both sides.
The Ely boys started scoring at
the beginning of the game and kept
it up to the end although the max
ing of baskets was not a sure shot
on all occasions. The score at the
end of the game stood 80 to I in
favor of Ely.
After the game a dance at the
K. R. hall occupied the attention
of the. visitors and several local
boys until an early hour.
Tomorrow evening the Ely High

Swallow & Hopkins Camp Goes
on Strike...7O Men Quit.

Camp No. E of the Swallow &
Hopkins company has been up
against the real red flag" bunch
for the past few days. Friday
about 70 men came in from the
camp saying they were on a strike
having been made dissatisfied by
Agitator S. P. Deerham aided by
another man. The walking dele
gates and fee collectors arrived
at the camp one day last week and
persuaded the men that their
board was not good enough and
also that the camp was not clean
enough.
Saturday when the men were
making merry in one of the Win
ton saloons check for $50 turned
up missing and the man losing it
said that Deerham was the probable
thief. Deerham had made himself
scarce in the meantime and a wire
to Tower to the chief of police
caught Deerham in that city in the
evening. He was returned to
Winton and held in Jail on the
charge of robbery. Another who
was quite loud in his I. w. w.
talk was held as a witness.
Monday before the Justice of the
Peace, the evidence adduced
against the prisoner was found
strong enough to hold him to the
fgrand jury and he was sent to Jail.
The witness was released. This is
the first actual trouble had with
the Work the Worker" outfit
here this season.

Make 1T GENERAL
Bemidii Man Has Some Amend
ments to Super.Tax Measure.

j. j. Opsahl, of Bemidji, men,
Der OF the 1907 legislature, has
outlined a policy on the super
tax measure that will bear look
ing INTO by reason of its being
meritorious. Mr.. Opsahl is of the
impression that the senate next
week will pass the measure and
that it will become a law provid-
ing Governor Burnquist does not
veto the act. He has been a WIS.,
ltor In several of the range towns
and cities at various times and
says he has an insight into the
difficulties that might follow the
making the super-tax into a law.
Mr.. Opsahl thinks that an
amendment should be tackled onto
the bill which in measure would
remove some of the sting. He is
in favor of making the law gen
eral and making it apply to all
products OF the mine, gravel beds,
stone quarries, brick or tile clay
beds, etc. and that an amendment
should be offered to make this
possible In case the bill should
pass. His idea is also to have the
returns from this taxation revert
to the communities from which
they are taken giving the state
and county a portion.
While Mr.. Opsahl goes into
this insofar as mine and other
land products are concerned, it
is our idea that he does not 90
go far enough and his amend
ments should include all products
of the state that are sent out of
the state, such as wheat, potatoes,
lumber, butter, eggs and root
crops. not forgetting cattle, hogs
and sheep. If it is tonnage tax

that some OF the names which had been

on the check list could be read and cor
respoded with names on the list. Cover.
nor Milliken carefully examined the lists
and the names as they were gone over by
