A Good Measure.

To put an end to profiteering in
newsprint paper Representative Steen-
erson of Minnesota, chairman of the
house postoffice committee, has intro
duced bill levying an excess tax of
5 cents. a pound on all paper sold for
immediate or future delivery by manu-
facturer or importer. Provision is
made that no tax shall be required of
manufacturers and importers who file
with the federal trade commission
their price lists, Mr. Stevenson said:
"The bill is an attempt by means of
the taxing power to prevent profiteer-
ing in newsprint paper. The evidence
shows that manufacturers and impor-
tiers are now supplying the large pa
pers with paper under contracts at
to cents per pound, while at the same
time the small papers must. get heir
supply from brokers and middlemen
at from to 16 cents per pound.
Where do these brokers get their pa
per?
: circumstances point to concert of
action on the part Of the manufacture
ers and importers to bleed the small
publishers and extort from them these
excessive prices. The evil cannot be
reached under the power to regulate
commerce, but it can be reached under
the taxing power, the same as the evil
of gambling in cotton was reached by
the exercise of that power.
''The bill taxes all sales of paper by
manufacturers and importers cents
per pound, but it authorizes them to
establish uniform prices from time to
time, and to file list of such prices
with the federal trade commission,
where it becomes public record. No
tax is levied on any paper sold in ac-
cordance with such list price, and a
discount to brokers on one-half of l
per cent per pound is not variation
from the list price,"

Vote No and Save Taxes.
Different From Elwell Law.

There are lot of farmers, through
out the state who labor under the mis-
taken idea that the Babcock amend
ment is twin of the late Elwell law
which put half it's cost of road build
ing on the farmers along the right-of-
way. It seems impossible that SO
much transformation should exist af-
ter all the explanation made about the
proposed amendment No. L that roads
are to be built from the; licensing of
trucks and automobiles and that there
will not be cent Of cost to anybody
who is not the owner OF motor vehicles.
Every friend of Minnesota should
make it his most important business to
tell the truth about the Babcock plan
and see that the voters generally un-
derstand it. Once they know all about
it all sensible men will vote for it

Tonnage tax has been an issue--a political issue
IN Minnesota for about twelve years 1t has been used
political club Almost no facts as to its nature or
its effects have been published but the Minnesota Fair
ak Association proposes series Of advertise
ments to the principal facts concerning the iron
ore industry and its taxation and thus give the people Of
Minnesota opportunity Judge for themselves as to
the effect of tonnage tax
II these facts not correct, they can easily be
proved untrue; if they correct they are Of most
serious concern to everybody in Minnesota.
L No state levies tonnage tax.
1t any state should levy tonnage tax surely it is
the great coal mining state Of Pennsylvania Ii.
mineral production and export is much greater
than Minnesotas but does not levy a tonnage
tax Neither does any other state.
= Every state that has tried tonnage tax has dis
carded It as unwise, unjust, and improbable.
Michigan had tonnage tax from 1853 to 1891
when the law repealed injurious to the
Minnesota had tonnage tax from 1881 to 1895 s
when it was repealed in face Of vgorou. opposi-
British Columbia triedNa tonnage tax for i number
Of years but found it Improbable that i wa.
