MINNESOTA Mine
TAX HELD VALID
FEDERAL COURT DECLARES 1T
CONSTITUTIONAL - $780,
600 INVOLVED.

Duluth, Mimi, Jan. Minneso-
ta's royalties tax law, passed by the
Legislature in 1928, was upheld as
constitutional in a decision handed
down by Federal Judge w. A. Cant
here today. Approximately $1,000
600 in taxes will be made available
under the law.
All the seven suits brought by Is
mining corporations and 26 india
viduals were ordered dismissed
JUDGE Cant, the complainants bein
REQUIRED to pay the costs. The teny
norarv restraining order in effe6
throughout the action will remain in
force go DAYS. giving the complain
ants time to file an appeal, Judge
Cants decree states.
That appeals will be taken to the
higher court was indicated by attor-
news for the compliments.
In 1921 the Legislature passed the
occupational tax law, taxing the min
inc Industry but allowing deductions
of the ROYALTIES from the valuation.
At the 1928 session the royalty tax
law was passed. The mining com
panies ioined in bringing suit against
this law. claiming that it was in vio-
lation Of the Constitutions of Min
nesota and the United States.
The state supreme court has never
passed on the validity of this tax.
In hsi decision Judge Cant points
out that the United States Constitu-
ton allows discretionary power to
state legislatures in making laws and
that there is no violation in the law
of either the Constitution of Mime
sofa or the United. States.
The seven suits were brought
AGAINST Samuel Lord, J. G. Arneson
and Odlin Halden, members of the
Minnesota tax commission; Clifford
Hilton. attorney general; Ray P.
Chase. state auditor, and Henry Rines
state treasurer.
Mr.. Hilton, J. A. Youngquist, as
sistant attorney general, and Patrick
j. RYAN. special assistant, represented
the state at the hearing before Judge
Cant last April.

SHELTER BELTS IN
ROOSEVELT COUNTY

1t has been demonstrated beyond
a reasonable doubt that certain trees
planted according to certain tillage
methods will grow, develop and pro
vide a beautiful grove around the
farm under practical conditions in
Roosevelt county. The development
of cooperative shelterbelts in Roose-
welt county certainly needs some
stimulants as there is not more than
one out of every fifty farmers over
the county as whole that has start
ed tree planting and it is believed
by committeeman that by not doing
so they are losing the opportunity
to add at least 100000 cash value
to their place besides providing all
the beauty and comfort that goes
with trees.
One other thing that We believe is
valuable is the fact that the shelter
belts properly arranged will provide
for small orchard and an extra
good garden protecting the same
from hot winds in the summer and
banking in large snow drifts to pro
vide water for the dry season. In

fact, that has been the experience OF
the demonstrations that are already
making good Care should be taken
however, to get only the proper
varieties and plant them only accord
ing to methods that have been sue
cessful.
The Nary-Clark forestry bill which
has recently been passed by congress
provides some special method OF
government stimulants and support
in this respect. Full information re-
garding this can be obtained from the
County Agents office before long.
A shelterbelt on every farm IN
Roosevelt county five years from now
will be the biggest asset to the devel-
opment of the county that could take

Have You This Habit?
By Margaret Morrison
ALWAYS FEELING POOR

" EARS ago, when Carrie was
4 young thing of fifteen running
about barefoot on her fathers farm
in Virginia, She had been richer dian
she was as Mrs. Leonidas Grimes with
her establishment up the Hudson.
Everyone knew then that she had no
money. How could they help know
ing with the holes in the carpet COW
cred up by the rugs. and the children's
mother turning the colonels old
suits? But Carrie spent money with
some pleasure in those days when
she had hardly any to spend.
Then she married Leonidas Grimes,
doing business for a big cotton firm,
and from that moment Carrie began
to feel poor.
One day Aunt Eugenia received an
invitation from Carrie to luncheon.
Aunt Eugenia, who had had a brill
liant career, was reduced now to divid-
ing her time among several more or
less eager relatives. Everything was
on a lavish scale from Carries note
of invitation, to the number of
courses served. Then, as the guests
sat about the finger bowls, the butler
passed on a heavy silver tray, tight
ly tied and sealed box of candy
"Do have some,' urged Carrie. 1T
has to be opened some time, you
know p And Aunt Eugenia mar
veled at this survival Of childhood
experiences in the rich Mrs. Leonidas
Grimes
Aunt Eugenia began to hear of the
Grimeses as entertaining royalty"
One day an elaborate missive booked
her for weekend On her arrival,
Aunt Eugenia thought that Carrie
seemed worried. Immediately she be-
gan, sitting there with her velvet
dinner gown ablaze with jewels, to
tell how poor she was feeling We
have to keep up our position she
walled, "but, oh, it takes so much
money! Imagine what keeping up
ten cars means
And everything those two days was
on the scale of "ten cars"-house,
grounds, entertainment, guests Then
came the time for Aunt Eugenias de-
parture Carrie was on the terrace
with her as a chauffeur and second
man drove up, polished and shining,
their liveries cleaning in a flivyer.
you are one Of the family, you
see, and gasoline is so expensive" "
sighed Carrie
Aunt Eugenia decided that Carrie
had asked her to the castle simply
because it was a solace to see some.
one who was really even poorer than
she herself, among all her riches,
felt. Aunt Eugenia thought of Car
ries mother and father who, with
nothing to their names, had always
somehow managed to give other peo.
ple great deal Carrie with her
plenty would never know the happi.
ness of generosity. The habit of feel
ing poor would cheat her to the day
of her death, and then 1t would cheat
her in that place where bank ac
count mattered not ut all.
