Final Battle Over
Tonnage Tax Bill
Starts In Minnesota

st. Paul, March 25.-The final bat
tie in the house Of representatives
over the tonnage tax bill was begun
this forenoon. Representative Charles
T. Murphy of Aurora. leader Of the
opposition, declared that If any at
tempt is made ito play politics with
the measure he will tear things
wide open." r
The WEIGH bill, under considera-
ton, provides for a 10. per cent tax
on the net value Of the ore. An
amendment to make deductions from
the total tax to offset the tax paid
on the ad valorem value of the mining
property was beaten los to 10. An
amendment to- make the tax S per
cent instead of 10 vas defeated by a
viva voc vote.
Representative Hitchcock of Hib-
bling spoke against the WEIGH bill.
He declared that 1.-The Iron range will
be ruined and at the. mercy OF the
steel trust" If the bill is passed. Great
reductions in wages would be n Of
the results, he declared.

Bismarck, N. D., March 25.-That
Townley lost control Of $40, 900 worth
of patronage when he failed to place
the emergency clause on his one-man
tax commission bill was discovered
today with the announcement that
III state tax commission. without re-
for politics and with no more
respect for the opinions of George E.
Wallace. Frazier's choice for tax
one member of the present three-man
board, had appointed nineteen tax
supervisors In as many North Dakota
counties. The appointment of Geo.
E. Wallace. chairman of the present
board. to be tax commissioner. the
new law, reducing the membership
OF thee commission to- one, was con-
1rmed by the senate during the recent
assembly. A law creating a one-man
commission did 10 secure the ma
tority necessary to give it immediate
effect. Another bill, providing that
the tax commission name a tax super
visor in each county, carried an
emergency clause and received the
necessary majority. r
1t was imperative that these tax
supervisors be appointed at ice in
order to carry the leagues new
scheme Of taxation into effect and to
make the required assessments and
adjustments. The duty Of appointing
these supervisors, therefore, devolved
upon the AK commission. Antici-
pating that the league tax commits
sioner would make these appoint
ments, the league, candidates for SUI
pervisorship appear to have offered
no further qualifications in their ap-
plications than the fact that they had
been loyal to ToWnley or that they
had garnered a certain number Of
votes for the league. Others who did
not base their applications on politics
set forth qualifications which appeal
ed to Commissioners F. E. Packard
and H. II. Steele, who constitute a
majority Of The board. and it is under
stood that these latter, without re-
spect to political affiliations are get
ting the jobs.
The Office of tax supervisor pays the
same as that of county auditor, or an
average Of $500 for each county, or
approximately $4,000 per annum for
the state.
