With the desire OF those who possess
the wisdom of experience, he wishes TO
shield the youth from the hard knocks

blindness, obstinacy, willfulness and
foolishness of the boy OF q, contrastel

STATE. REVENUE. TAX
WAIVED THIS YEAR

Z In this elimination Of the annual
tax levy for regular state revenue
purposes, Mr.. Chase says he has
based his action on the fact that the
receipts from various sources for the
next year will be ample for the ordin-
ary running expenses of the state and
he even hopes to finish with sur
plus. Possible revenue from all
known sources has been carefully
gone over and every possible con-
tingency considered.
For years the possibility of tax
less Minnesota has been the dream
of more than one state Official and
while not as optimistic, as some
of his predecessors, Mr.. Chase at least
expects material reduction and the
abolition of the revenue is the first
step toward. it's realization.
Last year Minnesota did the larg-
est business in it's history. Receipts
totaled $54,37O,555.46, and the ex-
penditures $49,609, 630.35. At the
close Of the fiscal year, June 3Oth,
there was cash balance of 3,919,-
1888 in the state treasury. The
fiscal year was begun with a cash ba-
lance Of $9,158,961.72. / st2. tSI..s:$ r,

Strait to Chosen (Korea), counting
the coast line Of the sea Of .Okhotsk,
comparable in size to our own Gulf
of Mexico " -.
"Across the southwestern corner
of the Pacific, British territory
stretches from Dutch New Guinea to
New Zealand, a distance of about
$500 miles, sbut with break of over
1000 miles between Australia and
New Zealand. In way, however,
Australia may fairly be considered
entirely a Pacific land, giving Great
Britain by far the greatest coast line.
The continent has for protection a
coast line of approximately 5000
miles, easily reached by fleets from
the Pacific, and it matters little from
naval point of view that half the
water that bathes this long shore line
is called the Indian ocean. Canada
adds approximately 500 miles to Brit
ish Pacific coast lines.
"The islands that constitute Japan
stretch. from, near the tip of Kam-
chatka to the southern point of Tai
wan, (Formosa), and thus having a
frontage on the Pacific coast Of about
2,70O miles. The coast line of Japan
is much greater, however, due to Che
western frontage on the Sea Of Ok
hotsk, the Sea of Japan, and the yell
low and Eastern Seas. y ="
Screened by' the Philippines and
the British possessions in northern
Borneo, the Dutch possessions have a
direct frontage on the Pacific Of only
about 1 900 miles; but their total
coast line, counting that on the In
dian ocean, is many times that. fig
ure. China's coast line, too, is screen
ed by Japan. 1t, amounts to about
1000 miles. French Indo- China, be-
hind the Philippines, has coast line
of about 1000 miles on the China
Sea.
"On the eastern side of the Pa
cifc, Mexico has a coast line of more
than 1000 miles, while that of Chile
is more than $500 miles. The ag-
gregate Pacific coast line of the re-
naming Latin-American countries
amounts to about $500 miles. :.
"But it is the small scattered is
lands controlled by these bordering
nations that constitute the crux of the
Pacific problem Practically all the
islands in thet Pacific proper are un-
der the control of Great. Britain,
France, the United States and Japan.
All of the French and most of the
British holdings are situated south Of
the equator, leaving the United States
and Japan in close competition above
that line. Guam is practically sur
rounded by newly acquired Japanese
islands, formerly owned by Germany
and Japanese lands skirt the Philip
pined on three sides. L The United
States is not a large holder of Pacific
islands, but it owns the group which
is by far the most important strategy

.. Lilies Used for r God.

Growing water lilies for food Is a
new idea in America, though It has
been practiced on a large scale for
centuries in the Orient. Scientists
lately have been making a study Of
the food value of the lotus lily, the
big yellow water lily found in many
lakes, ponds and rivers in>the eastern
and middle. western United States.
This lily was highly priced as a food
by the American Indians, just as Its
pink cousin, the lotus Of China, India
and Egypt, is a favorfte food there.
Peeled and boiled, the American wa
ter lily is as farinaceous and whole
some as potato and delicious to the
taste. ~ y
Propagation of the American lotus
Is not difficult, declare scientists, and
there are numerous ponds and lakes
In nearly every state, remarks. an ex-
change, whose waters are suited to the
profitable culture Of the lotus lily.

Speed Wins
IF YOU think that Thursday pub
lished report is not important listen
to this: Yesterday prominent bus
mess man Of 'Bemidji made the re-
mark that he had not subscribed for
the Pioneer as yet but intended do
ing so early next week: He said he
had been asked BY dozen Club Mem
bers to pay his subscription but that
he had easily put them off by saying
he had promised his subscription. He
Justified that little prevarication by
explaining that he intended to pay
it when he saw who the leaders really
are that he promised himself to
give his order to the Club Member
who looked like winner.
There are hundred of such pros
pect. Show your speed and you will
get a great deal of unsolicited sup
port. It is only human nature to
want to be on the winning side.
Credits and subscriptions, must be
received at the Pioneer office by 8
o'clock Wednesday night to be includ-
ed in the Thursdays report. Out Of
town members should mail subscrip-
tions in ample time, or send their re-
ports by special delivery.

American Poisonous Snakes,

!, There are four poisonous groups Of
snakes within the boundaries of the
United States. These are: 'the moe
casin, RATHER, copperhead and harle-
quin. All are easily distinguished by
their large, broad heads, deep-set
black eyes, small neck, stout bulky
body and short tail. The most dam
gerous of these perhaps is the mocca-
sin, for it usually rests on branches
of low trees and shrubs and strikes at.
passing victim. However, it will re-
frain from striking unless irritated
and will give battle only when leased
or frightened. -

importance to set a resolution, not to

Origin Of "Beyond the Pale"

In the time of King John that part
Of Ireland which was subject to Eng
lish rule was divided into - coun-
ties, and the entire district was known
as the Pale. From this originated
the expression beyond the pale"
meaning outside the law or beyond
jurisdiction. Inside the Pale, English
law was acknowledged and obeyed,
while the land outside was in an al
most constant state Of uproar aad
dissension.
