a considerable distance. In April,
1850, they encountered a party of
Sioux warriors, who forced the
explorers 10 accompany them to
their chief village on Mile Lac.
Here they we're separated and car

the summer the Sioux journeyed
to the prairies to hunt buffalo and
the Frenchmen were reunited.

Grow Wing--a Village
With an indian Past,

One of the oldest villages in
the State of Minnesota is Crow
Wing, the former home of the
White Earth Chippewas, and
which was founded back in 1887
as a trading post for the bands Of
Pillager Indians.
The post took its name from The
river the northern mouth of which
it faced. In the course of years
it became the center of Indian
trading for the upper country.
From the Red River settlements
to the northwest and from the
Leech Lake encampments and
mission came trappers, traders,
missionaries, and farmers en- route
to the settlements farther south.
A general supply store was located
at Crow Wing and trade flourish
ed.
In 1866 the settlement and vii.
lage of Little Crow contained
about seven white families, twenty
three families of halfbreeds, and
many Chippewa. Transient trad
ers, hunters, bois brules, prospect.
ors, homesteaders, and timber
finders brought the population OF
the village up to about six humid
red. The old trading post is now
gone; the present village of Crow
Wing occupies the post site.

The main record of the expedi

Accoult, voyageur of judgment

the leader and that Hennepin
merely accompanied the two lay

himself gave to the world no book

The real truth is that the mining
industry pay more taxes and more
kind of taxes than any other in
dustry in the state.
1t is being urged by those in
favor of this gross production tax
measure, that only the big fell
lows" will have to pay it, and that
it does not hurt the small mine
owner This is not true, and is
only another sample of the same
old campaign stuff going the
rounds. Even now am being held
down and hampered for want of
money to properly equip the mine
I am now operating in the Little
Rockies" in Phillips county, and
the reason given me by men with
money is. that they want to wait
and see whether this measure
passes 1t if does, ! can't get it.
Ny belief is that this gross pro-
duction tax is but a fore-runner
and the entering wedge for the
gross production principle of tax
alton and that within this decade
attempts will be made to fasten it
upon farming, stockraising and
other Industries.

SILVER DYKE PROTESTS.

The future of mining development
in Montana rests solely on what dis
position voters of the state make of
the metals mine tax at the Novem-
Der election, Howard l. Young, man
ager of mines for the American Zinc.
Lead and Refining company, declared
in Great Falls Saturday night.
1T is equally as unfair to tax the
farmer on the gross profits of his
wheat crop as it is to tax the mnies
on their gross profits" Mr.. Young
said.
Several years are required at times
to develop a mining operation to the
extent that it will yield dividends,
says Mr.. Young, and it is in this in
stance where the proposed amend
ment will do the greatest wrong. In
the development of mine thousands
of dollars are sometimes written in
the red" before any profit is le-
but this will not be considered
in the amendment, he argues.

september 23. 1s24.

September 23, 1874.
The effect of adoption by the
people in the coming election Of
the initiative measure for the inn
position of a gross value license
tax on the mining industry
would operate as an increase Of
81 per cent over the present
metalliferous mines license tax of
our concern.
We believe the proposed license
tax would prove very burdensome
to the industry, and in many in
stances, practically confiscatory.
No good will come to the state
by Gripping the industry in this
manner as in our judgment, it
will greatly limit production in
the state and decrease present
revenues by destroying subjects of
taxation.
Mines are already paying one
and one half per cent metalli-
ferrous mines license tax, and one
per cent corporation license tax,
both based on net proceeds; also
the full tax on one hundred per
cent assessment of net proceeds
the highest assessment on any
species OF property; also the tax
on mining claims, as well as sur
face improvements and machinery,
in addition to heavy taxes paid
to the government
If any more inventions, or de-
vices, under the guise Of license
taxes, are added to the burden
borne by the mining industry, it
will be a sorry day for Montana.

Dear Mr.. Barber:
Pursuant to your request I am

regarding the BLOCK P" Mine at

trict
If this proposed Gross Pro-

will but add a further loss to

1t seems unfair to add further
handicaps in the way of taxation
on the small miner, who is try
ing through development to place
his property on paying basis.
I feel that the theory or prfn-
ciple Of a Gross Production Tax
is a dangerous one to establish
in this state, and if applied to
mining might extend to other
of our basic industries. farming

If this tax becomes a law it
simply means a difference between
a profit and a loss to the Por-
phyry Dixie, and at this time when
we ere arranging to increase our
production which necessarily
means large increase in the
number of men employed and an
increased benefit to Helena and

appear to me that the people of

not want this state to prosper, or

Troy. Mont. Oct. Z. 10;

The metals mine tax measure will
discourage the development of mines.
inasmuch as it fixes tax on the
gross production of metals. The
small mine operator viii be unable
to operate in many instances.
The measure is entirely unjust, as
it exempts al mineral products.
There should be no more reason for
placing tax on the gross produc-
ton of metals than upon the produc-
ton OF Goa ~ other minerals. or on
the gross q 7artion of farms and
the livestock industry of the state.
] believe that the measure is vi
cious and. will prove very discour-
airing to the mining industry in the
state.
