Just at this time when so many
people are wrestling with their in
come tax statements, the glaring
inequalities of this measure are
forcibly brought home. While Tony
and Mikko at the mines and the
small business man are forced to
make a return and dig for income
taxes, thousands of public officials
and employees of the nation, state,
county, municipalities and school
districts go scot free and are not
even compelled to make return,
let alone paying, to help out the
government in the conduct of af-
fairs. Why the janitor of pub
lie hall or the high paid officials
of sundry municipal, county, state
and national activities are exempt
is hard question to answer un-
less it be that senators and con-
gressmen protected their own hides
when the act was passed. A stat
istics sharp has it figured that
were income taxes collected from
this vast army of employees and
officials, there would be more than
enough money to pay the compen-
sation demands of the soldier boys
and leave a little besides.

-Four centers, more or less distinct
from each other are now. in operation.
They are:

which. is fifteen miles south Of Mime

war veterans have. taken small three
TO seven acre tracts for poultry. and

2. In the vicinity of Moose Lake,
where the American Legion aids men
in locating on land at reasonable pri-

trainees have been assisted to take up
farms at low rates.

Candidate u! for Re:e!lectio on
STATE SENATOR

+ In the course Of my legislative ser
vice, l have supported such things as
the increase in the railroad gross earn
-ings tax, the creation Of the Board OF
Control, the first primary election law
placed upon our statute books, mater
ial reduction in freight; rates which
remained operative until Federal rail-
way control in the war, on three oc-
casions a tonnage tax on iron ore and
other constructive measures Of inter-
est to the people, including fair legis-
lation to labor. Last session, I op-
posed SUCH measures as the so-called
Street Railway Bill and the State Pc.
lice Bill. MY attitude and relation
ship to agricultural legislation is an
open book. No organization, political
or otherwise, has monopoly of solicit
tude for the interests of the farmers,
labor or any other class comprising our
common, average citizenship. All have
groups who stand for the welfare of
all the people. Conversely, parties
have groups whose economic interests
are opposed to the best interests of
agriculture. Therefore, it is well tn at
all those who represent agricultural
interests within the various organiza-
tons, political or otherwise, to coop
crate in advancing agricultural mea-
sures for only thru such cooperation
can sane, helpful and really con-
structive agricultural program be re-
allied. Taxation is a vital problem to
the general tax paying public today.
There is no direct state tax levy this
year, neither will there be next year.
Why? Because the State Revenue
Fund receipts for the 1922, fiscal year
is $16,742, 1896 on account of taxes
On corporations, public utilities, state
department fees, etc. These. receipts
take care of the running Of our state
government and the maintenance Of
our various state institutions. The
direct taxes we pay are for county,
municipal, and other local subdivis-
ional levies, chiefly controlled by the
localities themselves. The positions I
have won in the legislature on i'm
portant committees and the knowledge
I have gained in Legislative work are
due to your kindness and are at your
