the notes will mature in five years.
They will be issued in both registered

The senate has passed the Wicker
house bill providing for the submits
sion of constitutional amendment
authorizing the legislature to levy an
income tax. The bill authorizes the
legislature to increase the exemption
of personal property for the head of
family from 500 to 5000, and the
Legislature is also authorized to ex-
empt household goods, wearing ap-
parel and agricultural products in the
possession of the producers, and tools,
implements and machinery in such
amount as it may be determined. In
lieu of the taxes on these classes of
personal property the legislature may
tax not only income but privileges
and occupations, and the taxes may
be graduated and progressive and a
reasonable amount of income may be
exempted.
I The Cliff Bessette bill, under which
county commissioners could direct i'm
provement of farms in their counties
and issue bonds twice year to cover
the immediate expense, was defeated
in the senate by vote of 81 to II. An
amendment providing that the bond
issues be put to vote of the people
in each county when they were neces-
sary was carried, virtually killing the
measure. Senator Bessette voted
against the bill because of the amend
ment. Farmers whose land would
have been improved under the system
would be permitted to repay the coun-
ty in small payments.
Senators Bessette and Michael Boy
Ian on Monday introduced bill to
extend boxing privileges to all towns
and cities in the state having popu-
lation of 5000 or more. AS the law
stands, boxing exhibitions are not per-
mitted except in cities of the first
class, which includes only Minneapolis
St. Paul and Duluth. The bill should
be killed. So-called "boxing," which
virtually means prize fighting, should
be prohibited.
A. O. Devoid, Minneapolis socialist
senator, has introduced memorial t.

A joint resolution memorializing the
government to release Immediately
Minnesota troops in France, and to
